Just a lot of Knicks and NBA stuff | Formerly @SportsInsider

Just watch the flurry of baskets over the final 35 seconds of this video.

This man is a legend

[James L. Edwards III @JLEdwardsIII]

Jalen Brunson was 7 for 22 in quarters 1-3. He's 5 for 9 in the fourth.

Just one of the greatest clutch scorers the sport has ever seen.

[Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS]

Jose Alvarado prevented that game from getting away from the Knicks when Brunson went down. Unsung hero of the night.

@will_nba_hater @NBABabySecret “You get a Champagnie game — now you only have to win 3 times in 6 games”

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

I think Alvarado is gonna have to play non-Brunson minutes this series, because McBride/Bridges are not going to be able to get the Knicks into sets against this defense

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

I think this series is very hard to project because both teams have been very hard to project all year, whether it’s been the Knicks running hot and cold or the Spurs overcoming youth/inexperience.

I have predicted Knicks in 6 for every series and I won’t stop now:

KNICKS IN 6

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

Devastating to the Spurs’ future if Dylan Harper is simply a 6x All-Star and one of the best two-way wings in the league at his peak

[PMM @pmmbasketball]

is dylan harper upside overblown. whats to say hes not more like jimmy butler/jalen williams than like harden/sga that most ppl are making him out to be

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

Someone tell me how to get this horrible @Google feature on Docs out of my face

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

Still wild to hear Mike Tirico say “The Knicks waiting for the winner of this game”

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

@OneMoreSucka Loved Ronny! Left him off tho bc he played in a rare up year in 2010

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

Aside from the obvious fan favorites who were actually good (Jamal Crawford, David Lee, Nate Robinson, Langston Galloway, etc.) my deep cuts:

Clarence Weatherspoon, Renaldo Balkman, Frank Ntilikina, Noah Vonleh

[Jonathan Macri @JCMacriNBA]

While we have a minute Knicks fans, what player(s) from the dark years did you hold an irrational soft spot for despite the fact that the team was bad and they might not have been very good either?

Mine are Jared Jeffries, Lance Thomas & Kadeem Allen. Honorable mention KOQ.

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

I know this is extremely dorky of me, but I keep thinking about how members of this Knicks team/era will be greeted by MSG crowds when they pull up to Knicks games in 15-20 years. You see the reactions for ‘90s Knicks now. These guys will all be legends. Chills.

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

I’m sure it will work out for the next team that acquires James Harden

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

Mikal Bridges, who did not initiate one ounce of contact all regular season, is diving into people for halfcourt steals up 27 with a 3-0 lead in the ECF

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

I do not understand the amount of holding off the ball that referees allow

[Jason Lloyd @ByJasonLloyd]

I have never, and I mean never, heard as many opposing teams’ fans in this arena for a game as tonight

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

3 reasons this is stupid:

1. You don’t control who you play

2. In two of these years (MIA ‘23 and IND ‘25) the lower seed went to the Finals (and IND almost won)

3. The Knicks have been a top-three seed each of the last three years, so limited chances to play a top 3 seed

[Billy Reinhardt @BillyReinhardt]

Good morning:

Fun fact I came across this morning…

The Knicks have played 10 playoff series in the Jalen Brunson era. The Knicks have faced a top-3 seed in the East just 1/10 series.

2023: CLE (4), MIA (8)
2024: PHI (7), IND (6)
2025: DET (6), BOS (2), IND (4)
2026: ATL (6), PHI (7), CLE (4)

The basketball gods really want a Knicks title.

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

Outside of Game 4 vs. Philly, it’s been kind of a disappointing playoffs for McBride. He’s hurting them right now

[Scott Davis @WScottDavis]

Kenny Atkinson’s “challenge” mechanics are second to none
