En route to their championship, the Knicks became just the 3rd team to go 16-3 or better in the Playoffs since 2003 (when the NBA expanded to best-of-seven in all rounds), joining the 2017 Warriors (16-1) and 2024 Celtics (16-3).

@TheDunkCentral@GrantAfseth@wooskyyy@Tatum3njoyer Hey @Moustache_bq and @DrCumbutt There's no such thing as being victims, NBA players as free agents make up their own mind of where they want to go. Arranging a trade that's different, but guys have a right to be waived by a bad team you're traded to.
