You niggas can gaslight all you want but the narrative before the finals was that the Spurs and the Thunder were fighting for the championship and would destroy any team that came out East. The Knicks were overlooked. You don’t get to run the “we’re young” gimmick, sorry.
It’s really not talked about enough how the Knicks had the most dominant playoff run in NBA history. Like that 53 year drought wasn’t just broken. It was practically made up for.
