Some serious spin here by Dolan. Let the bad vibes recommence!

[Kristian Winfield @Krisplashed]

Knicks/MSG call Mayor Mamdani and Police Commissioner Tisch “New York City’s biggest party poopers” for choosing to close the areas surrounding MSG for Game 4 of the NBA Finals.

“We have been told that the NYPD will once again implement the same 'frozen zone' restrictions for Game 4, which were supposedly to thwart any threats related to the President's attendance. We now know these restrictions were never about the President - it was just a convenient excuse to restrict how and when Knicks fans celebrate.”

Harden->Dirk->Wilt and I knew I had a chance

Cade, was feeling good

Pulled 60s Warriors again and knew I had it in the bag with Rick. No re-spins.

@JohnBBoyd12 Dude right? Like, if he was at 20-10, instead of 17-11, I might’ve had it lol but that negates his whole thing! I think they changed the sliders after the first 24-48 hours 😂

Bruh

Has to be fake lmao

The Judge set a pretty interesting precedent in the Sorsby case. Part of Sorsby's argument was that the NCAA's hard and fast no-gambling rules are BS because of the close ties between college sports and Gambling companies.

The judge bought that, at least in part. That softens the argument for strict penalties for gambling on games, even games your team is playing in, as long as the NCAA maintains any type of relationship, even through broadcast partners, with gambling.

Essentially, this judge has said the NCAA can't really tell you not to gamble anymore, because they are making too much money off of it.

Now, that's not the entirety of the judge's reasoning, and this is just an injunction, but that certainly is an interesting development.

So we just ignoring body type now? Wemby is not clearing the same space horizontally with his back to the basket the way Al did. Not saying that game can’t benefit as a piece, but saying he should be Al instead of KD/Kareem is disregarding the body type.

[#CoachHova 🏀 @realbucketscout]

Wemby should have taken the AL Jefferson route rather than KD or Kareem route.

Been a while since Stephen A got a W

[ClutchPoints @ClutchPoints]

"This president has no business showing up in New York City. I am dead serious. It is selfish. It is narcissistic. It is ridiculous that he is coming to this game."

Stephen A. Smith on President Donald Trump attending the Knicks game tonight.

[Simon Shortt @Simon_Shortt]

I like how this says “Applicant has demonstrated that he will suffer a probable, imminent, and irreparable injury…”

Oh you mean like…consequences…for his actions?

The court found the NCAA tried to hold him accountable and we don’t like that bc we want him to play this year.

[Ross Dellenger @RossDellenger]

QB Brendan Sorsby has been granted his injunction against the NCAA.

[Daniel Jeremiah @MoveTheSticks]

I’ve never had an issue paying players- above or under the table. It is what is. But you can’t bet on your own sport & team as a CFB player. That sets a very dangerous precedent. No other way to say it. I’m not saying he can’t have an NFL career but there has to be some meaningful punishment here.

[Simon Shortt @Simon_Shortt]

Oh my

[Ross Dellenger @RossDellenger]

QB Brendan Sorsby has been granted his injunction against the NCAA.

[David Dennis Jr. @DavidDTSS]

This the quintessential story of how sports reflects the state of the world. Thousands of fans have waited for Game 3 their whole lives and now they’re priced out of entering the game and can’t even celebrate outside because one billionaire gets to attend the game for free.

[Simon Shortt @Simon_Shortt]

Dog. When NY fully turns on Trump bc he jinxes the Knicks winning the title it’s going to be the FUNNIEST thing but so upsetting for fans 😂😭

[Pablo Torre 👀 @PabloTorre]

James Dolan invited his friend Donald Trump to watch Game 3. In order to do that, they have to ban the organic, historically joyous parties happening outside MSG for fans who can't afford to be inside. Modern sports in a nutshell

2016-17 wiz

[Simon Shortt @Simon_Shortt]

Yea people have ODd this one

[Eddie Maisonet, III @edthesportsfan]

Somehow, in the span of less than a week, a cool side quest has been burned into the ground.

[Simon Shortt @Simon_Shortt]

@JohnBBoyd12 10000% lol but you know what Fox and them will say

Go get your daddy out here if you can’t take it 😂

[Simon Shortt @Simon_Shortt]

Lmao Rick giving the Spurs ammo man what’s he thinkin 😂

[Simon Shortt @Simon_Shortt]

Wemby 3PA need to be daggers off momentum. When the offense needs to get going he can’t settle for that. That’s not what gets him or the Spurs going.

[Simon Shortt @Simon_Shortt]

Knicks are a machine rn. Steadily doing what they do with insane efficiency. Spurs ceiling can top them, but they have to be aggressive on offense, without beating themselves on defense.
