Knicks 29 point comeback with a Widow’s Bay Season 2 announcement this day legitimately couldn’t get better

[Apple TV @AppleTV]

Mayor Tom Loftis declares Widow’s Bay remains totally safe and open to visitors.

#WidowsBay — Renewed for Season 2

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

He’s right the Spurs really did pull off the impossible last night

[Hater Report @HaterReport]

WEMBY JUST DROPPED A BAR:

"The lack of experience is a strength of us...because we could do impossible stuff because we don't know it's impossible" 🥶

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

Yeah and we’re right

[🏰 @CastleFor3]

knicks fans talk about OG anunoby like he kawhi

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

Maybe they should have tried dictating more Spurs wins then

[Ben Golliver @BenGolliver]

Spurs’ Stephon Castle: “Coach Mitch said it best, we’ve pretty much dictated the winner and loser of all these games.”

[ESPN @espn]

OmG.

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

Knicks lost these two games because they’ve had no scheme adjustment to the Spurs, plus sloppy play and bad shooting

But this Finals has put a spotlight on how inept the officiating has been, as this tweet says it’s the simple little stuff and they’re just totally missing It

[Carson Breber @Carsobi]

We've seen some extremely bizarre missed calls this series. There's been a lot of focus on the levels of physicality allowed, but to me, the bigger issue is just like... missing goaltends, allowing an obvious double dribble, not controlling a sub situation etc. Just bad misses.

[MFBSports @TheMFBSports]

See this is the thing with physical basketball. Let it be physical or call touch stuff.

Jalen Brunson and Castle are both being physical here initially. Castle is hand checking and grabbing jersey and Brunson is using his hands to separate and clear himself.

Then Brunson does a fairly typical forearm shiver, and does NOT EXTEND his arm and Castle takes this as a chance to throw his head back to try and seek a call while grabbing Brunson down.

Castle is then rewarded with a call and won an extra possession for his team. And Castle knows he should play like this because every other game this series has rewarded him specifically with this play.

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

Zarba hates the Knicks and KAT especially, one of if not the only ref the 2026 Knicks have a losing record with

Tonight will be the same as the first 3 games no reason that will change, what can change is Knicks regain focus and limit turnovers so they can win

[PMT Stats @PmtStats]

Ref from New York City and went to SUNY 😂

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

When people say the FT disparity is overblown, this is the plays that we’re referring to

Knicks and Spurs through 3 games have been officiated to be playing 2 different sports

Don’t expect this to change tonight so hoping Knicks go in with more focus than game 3

[DJ Zullo @DJAceNBA]

One way to beat ball pressure is Pistol 5 "Get" action. Castle's bump and run coverage makes that impossible. Two hands impeding his movement with the trail official watching it all unfold. Brunson reacts with a forearm. Castle flops and gets the call.

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

All the talk about the big bad western conference and they’ve had to result to dirty plays and getting bailed out by NBA 9pm Stanley Cup news dumps lmao

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

No flagrant upgrade on the uncalled foul of Spurs' Victor Wembanyama to Knicks' Jalen Brunson on Monday night, a league spokesperson tells ESPN. Wembanyama will stay at two flagrant points in postseason.

[yoni rechtman @yrechtman]

This was among the most lopsided, poorly officiated games I’ve ever seen. Here is a thread of all the terrible calls starting with Wemby chokeslamming Brunson. This was clean.

[Barstool New York @BarstoolNYC]

The Refs doing anything they can for the Spurs

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

It sucks that hating on Wemby for his performance tonight is gonna seem like sour grapes post Knicks loss but man this is the guy the NBA and officials are breaking theirs back to make the face of the league?

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

Refs tried to take KAT out of the game for cooking Wemby too hard, only for the Spurs to come back and Wemby lose them the game

[Tommy Beer @TommyBeer]

In game full of questionable calls, that offensive foul in KAT was the worst, most inexcusable of them all

[SNY Knicks @sny_knicks]

"Anybody but Jalen - make someone else shoot the ball"

De'Aaron Fox on the Spurs' defense against Jalen Brunson in Game 1 and how they'll approach the rest of the series

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

Another day another Brunson/Jordan stat

@JoshDubowAP

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

There’s that dang Michael Jordan guy again

[yc @yc]

KAT has been the most consistently great player this entire playoffs. If you still talking about “he can’t defend” you are not paying attention (and a lot of you are not)

[Tyler Kirk @TylerIanKirk]

Jalen Brunson
