This Knicks team is so good just of hard work , heart , effort but it will come to an end because they are missing 2 pieces , losing Mitchell Robinson was a huge loss , but if your a knicks fan you gotta love this team and hope the front office makes the right moves to get this team a chip in the window they have.
Not saying they can’t win it all cause their grit can run with Boston for sure but at some point what they lack will bite them.
I badly want to see Pacers or Knicks beat Boston so go Knicks.

These KNICKS are something else, they can beat Boston, I believe it! All of the players are
Putting in WORK and they’re killing their op’s with their jump shots, not to mention their DEFENSE! They’re doing everything! GO KNICKS IN 24!!!
