While the “healthy Knicks would beat a healthy Celtics” comment was asinine - let alone the “trust” factor given the Knicks’ players’ playoff histories and the whopping 12ish games they played together - Wilbon is being misquoted about the Pacers stuff, as he was saying he didn’t know if this current, unhealthy version of the Knicks would even beat this Pacers team. That specific comment wasn’t saying anything about the Celtics.

But, yeah, the Knicks hype driven by the New York media machine is pretty sickening. I hope they win and then we sweep them with 20+ wins every game to shut them up.

EDIT: This also might be what Tatum needs, too, as he would be extra motivated to dominate this matchup given all the non-sensical Brunson > Tatum takes.

Woj said last night the Mavs were the first team to advance to the conference Finals.

"NYESPN" continuing to just ignore the Celtics completely  ::)

Why NBC should've stripped ESPN rights to broadcast NBA games and not TNT smh

Yeah it's a huge shame they did that to TNT and meanwhile the whole nation has to suffer with NBA Countdown.

Knicks braggers and mouths , go ahead and put down KP and Celtics .  It’s the motivation they need .
Knicks should be sure the Celtics are hearing this rubbage talk.

We win against either a healthy Knicks or an unhealthy one. But let’s face it: Even if the Knicks were missing OG and Brunson, we’d still lose Game 2. 😂😂😂

It's going to be fun having Nesmith matched up against one of our stars.  I'm glad he's had a chance to blossom.

I think Pritchard and even Hauser might be sneaky useful in this series especially against their bench guys like McConnell. Need to hope Hauser can come in and knock down some 3s, there'll be stretches where offense is fast-paced for both teams and if Hauser can knock some down, it'll make life tough for IND.

Yeah, Hauser. Good call. I like that matchup for us. Sheppard is an inexperienced rookie. Hauser should be able to exploit to him and losses of concentration on defense. Sheppard is a good shooter but still adjusting to the NBA line. He has been an inconsistent shooter on the season. Hauser should have a big advantage over him as the parimary backup wing on either team.

Celtics need to win the rebounding war vs the pacers.

We should give Brissett a chance to have a revenge game!
