just hope that when we force a game 7, everyone gives Crawford as much credit for being a genius as being an idiot right now.
again, i don't think that's what he said about Lala and I don't think he was wrong for talking some smack. The Knicks wore all black to MSG to have our funeral. So sorry that J. Crawford wanted to tell them how wrong they were. smh
the knicks are idiots for wearing black, and crawford is an idiot for opening his mouth for 2 reasons....
1. it goes against everything kg was preaching in his post game interview with dickerson, which seems like it was a conscience decision by the team to put their hard hats on, close their mouths, and play scrappy. doc was p---ed with crawford for a reason too.
2. crawford didn't even play
honestly, I think you people just don't like J Crawford and it's understandable. He wore weed socks to practice. I get it. Wouldn't be half this much talk if it was a JET or Jeff Green. You all would prolly celebrate JG for that ("ahhh he's finally showing emotion/he's not passive ahhh!")
What I'm not sure about though, is that it's wrong to trash talk. I wish we could've seen more how it developed. I have a hard time believing Raymond and Melo didn't say anything to him directly, he responded and that's why everyone got all worked up.
These past 2 games have been mental. Knicks looked ahead to the second round, thought they were going to get a sweep, and didn't. JR Smith wants to be cocky in the media, K-Mart wants to put on a show...BUT
THEY CAN'T BACK IT UP. We should've BEEN swept.
We are hanging around. And I still don't plan on winning the series, but if we do, wouldn't it make sense that it's because this Knicks team is rattled by the mind-games? Look at the only game we won against the Knicks -- honey nut cheerio game where Melo was so mad he wanted to try to win the game by himself. It didn't work for him.
JR Smith said they woulda won if they had me in game 4 , so he tries way too hard in game 5 to back it up. AND HE CAN'T!! Kenyon wants to bury the Cs in game 5, AND HE CAN'T!!
If it's a mind game with the Knicks we have an obvious advantage. So when Raymond Felton finally has an awful game in game 6, again, I hope someone gives J Crawford credit. The Knicks are not positively influenced by trash talk like say, someone like the Heat. If the Knicks go off and advance, then great. They shoulda done that 2 games ago...we forced 2 games on them. They are worried -- everyone is worried. And I continue to say if this is a long series, I'm taking the Cs.
So Game 6 is obviously going to be interesting, but I can almost already feel the energy at TD Garden. And I have a hard time believing we will be eliminated, at home with the crowd backing us up. We are obviously a much better team at home. I'm not booking a win, but you're telling me I have to trust the Knicks to be completely mature about this situation and get the job done. I'm not solid on that.
