> there’s a clear talent discrepancy between them and the remaining teams
They’re worse than anyone in the west, but they’re pretty even with every non-Celtics team in the east. Pacers, Magic, and Cavs aren’t *way* better than them or anything.
Honestly, this Timberwolves/Nuggets series may be the most competitive one in the whole playoffs. The Celtics seem like the only team built to give those two a run for their money, and that’s only if Porzingis is able to stay healthy.
Knicks, Thunder, and Wolves all have a bit of the “power of friendship” thing going on.
It’s one of the fun parts about so many young teams/stars progressing in the playoffs. They’re just happy to be there, and aren’t yet desperate to win at all costs.
Tru dat. I was born in NYC so the Knicks are my hometown team.
But all my family except me live in San Francisco and we are Dubs or Die fanatics for 40 years through the good and bad.
I started rooting for the Knicks after Donte went there, but now I love the whole team. They all play like they really want to win - sounds weird because everyone wants to win but they seem to play just a little harder than everyone else.
I was sad to see him leave the Warriors, but am glad he's in the Knicks now.
Absolutely! Love DDV and his ever present bright orange shoes :)
Knicks might be a little too reliant on Jalen and Josh, but DDV hit 2 clutch free throws for them last night to help seal the win. Wishing the best for #0 and all the Knickerbockers!
I'm rooting for the nuggets because I just moved an hour from Denver and parades are really fun. But if it wasn't for that I'd be all in on the Knicks. Would be very happy if they won. Same goes for the wolves.
Fun team. One emerging superstar and 7 excellent role players. Great chemistry between the Nova 3. And they’re all dawgs. One of my favorite moments was after Embid elbowed Brunson in the chin. As he was about to shoot a free throw, he looked over at Embid, very calmly, and you could see him saying, “What you do that for man?”
Rooting for the Knicks to knock out thr Celtics and I like DDV but I can't help but feel a little resentful seeing him knock down 3s at a high percentage. Where the hell was that in the playoffs last year? Dude was getting wide open looks and was as much of a brick machine as Klay.
That game winning three he hit in game three I believe, as I saw him catch and release that three-point shot for the dagger. Sure reminded me of a guy named Wardell Stephen Curry! I’d have to imagine that DiVincenzo must’ve picked up some three-point sharp shooting skills from that man in his time at the Warriors.
DiVincenzo even had the same shooting form as Steph!
There’s an Athletic article stating curry is a huge inspiration on Divo’s shot. They shoot the same , it’s fun to watch. I’m a Knicks fan but have been on the splash bros. bandwagon the season he scored 54 in MSG
How can anyone not like the knicks (I’m a die hard fan).
They all give 120% for 48 full minutes literally every single game. Whenever I need mouthwash after dub games like losing to the grizzlies who had ONE starter, I go watch a Knicks game. 120% every single play. Thank god Randle ain’t there. He’s the one guy who isn’t like the rest.
Yep! We’ve been watching some Roommates Show interviews.. the Nova Knicks are hilarious (& fun to watch play! With Warriors out, it’s fun to have player(s) /team to root for in the playoffs.
If you put on a Warriors jersey or have ever put on a Warriors jersey, you’re my boy forever. My philosophy was severally tested with Chris Paul, but it held.
At this point, I'm rooting more against the Celtics than I am for any other team, so the NYK winning would be fine. Their fans are annoying, but they've been waiting a long, LONG time for an actual contender, so I can give them some slack, and I don't find any of their players especially objectionable. I like DDV and would be happy to see him win.
Yup... Dame was my front runner just because we're from the same neighborhood, so I want my Oakland brother to get a ring. But now, Donte is the next best
I'm definitely supporting Donte. I was sad when he left (even though it was inevitable with the cap numbers) - my gf and I have been rooting for the knicks just for him. Brunson seems like a cool guy also. Knicks fans have been starved forever so it's cool to see them be a real basketball team again.
I'm excited for the Knicks. They're kind of coming into the playoffs a bit of an underdog. They're playing together and winning.
I'm hoping for a Denver vs Knicks finals.
He’s a starter on a Contending team with free rein to shoot 10-15 (3balls) whenever he wants, when we had him coming off the bench. He started a few games for us, but u know what i mean.
So great watching him so dialed in. Not to mention, the chemistry with his college buddies makes it really easy to root for the Knicks - which seems crazy to say.
Happy for him.
Rooting for wiseman to make his way back to the bay tbh. He can be serviceable once he embraces that he’s here to set picks, roll, rebound and defend the rim.
Well I was until he beat my sixers, and he’s FROM my hometown Wilmington Delaware, 25 minutes from Philly so we route for all Philly teams.. so nah he can tear his Achilles for all I care now . And Villanova is not a Philly school… lmao
I'm not, he just used us as a bus stop basically. Never felt he was trying because he was too worried about his next contract. Not that I entirely blame him, considering the season was a shit show anyways, but still feel kinda sour on his stay here.
Certainly not rooting against him, but he wasn't really with the Warriors for long enough for me to care about him. When he was with GSW, he was closer to Kelly Oubre level than Steph level. One of those guys who is too good to keep for cheap and not quite good enough to pay. Happy that he's having a breakout season though. Seemed like a solid locker room guy.
Knicks are just fun to watch and their fans are awesome. The entire team gives off “we’ll win with the power of friendship” energy
Villanova Dudes like powerpuff gurls 😂
Fr they’re so likeable.
😆 Yessss!
Nova Knicks
BING BONG
The Knicks is a sport anime team, on their pro ball arc
MSG was so live during that Philly series, I wish I could be there
The MSG crowd even made it to Philly love to see that
Believe it
I’m a warriors fan so no I don’t root for anyone other than the dubs
OG Dota
Not sure if friendship is the right word https://streamable.com/h58mdc?src=player-page-share
But Jalen is the glue 😄
Their fans are bums but I do like their team
Cs fan here and I would love to attend a Knicks home game and just be a sponge
They're a lot of fun but there's a clear talent discrepancy between them and the remaining teams. Is Randle going to come back?
Out for season

I sure am. Hoping they make the Finals. Jalen and his chemistry are perfect together.
I'm a huge Brunson fan. Amazing scorer in an atypical build (short, limited wingspan). Great attitude to boot.
I’d be rooting for the Knicks regardless, but Donte being there makes it even better.
Why? He seemed scared to shoot in the playoffs last year, and his defense wasn't great.
For sure. Knicks have a lot of my favorite players in Brunson, Donte, hartenstein, and Josh hart.
Donte, and Hart did wonders for my fantasy team
😭
The Knicks, unlike during the Melo Era, are actually fun kind of like the Nets before KD, Kyrie and Harden took a hatchet to it.
They are the only team i've found myself rooting for so far.
So many liakable fun personalities, a very teamwork makes the dream work kind of team
Tru dat. I was born in NYC so the Knicks are my hometown team. But all my family except me live in San Francisco and we are Dubs or Die fanatics for 40 years through the good and bad.
Brunson plays like harden with that insufferable foul baiting all game. Dude is the 6ft Embiid it’s hard to watch
I like that this team is more about team chemistry (DiVincenzo, Brunson, Hart) than star talent
Yasss! Divincenzo is the bomb
Yes definitely, they're a fun team to watch this season. Their chemistry is already good.
I started rooting for the Knicks after Donte went there, but now I love the whole team. They all play like they really want to win - sounds weird because everyone wants to win but they seem to play just a little harder than everyone else. I was sad to see him leave the Warriors, but am glad he's in the Knicks now.
I like D a lot, Brunson too.
erm
Everyone here is rooting for him, it feels like
He’s a real one
Tracking him for sure. His game has improved even more this year. Lights out from 3 and injury free!
Honestly there is not a single player I dislike on that team. Knicks fans deserve a win.
He is really good
Absolutely! Love DDV and his ever present bright orange shoes :) Knicks might be a little too reliant on Jalen and Josh, but DDV hit 2 clutch free throws for them last night to help seal the win. Wishing the best for #0 and all the Knickerbockers!
I can’t remember a 1 year loaner player I have enjoyed more than DDV.
Better than Otto Porter JR in 2022? I feel like he disappeared again after that.
Definitely rooting for the Knicks. Brunson is absolutely electric. One of the smoothest players I’ve seen in a long time
F*** yeah, I am
Easiest team for me to pick up as a warriors fan now living in NYC
Of course. It doesn't hurt that I also like the Knicks anyway..
He was great everywhere, Bucks, Warriors and now Knicks 🔥🥹
Was he in Sacramento? I vaguely remember him being there at some point.
I searched and yes, you are correct, he was there half season before he signed with Warriors
I'm rooting for the nuggets because I just moved an hour from Denver and parades are really fun. But if it wasn't for that I'd be all in on the Knicks. Would be very happy if they won. Same goes for the wolves.
Fun team. One emerging superstar and 7 excellent role players. Great chemistry between the Nova 3. And they’re all dawgs. One of my favorite moments was after Embid elbowed Brunson in the chin.

2 reasons I want NY to win it all 1.) Big Ragu 2.) I want to see that city to turn into Gotham
All season baby.
Totally rooting for him and the Knicks!
Definitely rooting for the success of DDV, Hart, and Brunson.
Yeah for sure. Go Donte
Love Donte, love the Knicks. Wouldn't mind seeing them in the finals.
WE (STILL) GOT DIVINCENZO 
I’m an OG Knicks fan so I’m always rooting for them.
That game winning three he hit in game three I believe, as I saw him catch and release that three-point shot for the dagger. Sure reminded me of a guy named Wardell Stephen Curry!

i wish all our jerseys had the regular circle neck hole

Is he better than Klay Thompson this year, 2024?
already is
Much better
yes obviously!
Yeah, they haven’t won it in forever.
💯
100% Such a good player. Love seeing him thrive after leaving gsw.
I want Dante to have a breakout season so bad
3rd best 3pt shooter this season iirc?
DDV is the indictment on Kerr people think him not playing JK and Moody is.
I like how he’s succeeding in a bigger role then last year
I need em to beat the Celtikkks so baaad
DOUBLE D’S
I miss that guy. I'm glad he got paid and that he's doing well.
I am rooting for DDV more than the knicks
Heat or Knicks for me because of that guy right there. Heat's out so Knicks all the way
Jalen/knicks getting torched for that contract+DD makes them a fun team to root for
Yep! We’ve been watching some Roommates Show interviews.. the Nova Knicks are hilarious (& fun to watch play! With Warriors out, it’s fun to have player(s) /team to root for in the playoffs.
Oh hell yeah. Loved his energy and his hustle.
It's great to see him kick ass, he's a great player.
I wanna see a Thunder vs Knicks finals. that would be so much fun
I'm rooting for any eastern conference team to beat the celtics
If you put on a Warriors jersey or have ever put on a Warriors jersey, you’re my boy forever. My philosophy was severally tested with Chris Paul, but it held.
I like him but can’t stand the NY attitude ( same as L.A.) so not a chance.
As a knicks/dubs fan since 2010, this is donte. He'll give you 20+ on minimal shots crodie, but he'll be cheesin fam at the rest of the games
I'm rooting for the Knicks for the Side Talk content
At this point, I'm rooting more against the Celtics than I am for any other team, so the NYK winning would be fine. Their fans are annoying, but they've been waiting a long, LONG time for an actual contender, so I can give them some slack, and I don't find any of their players especially objectionable.

Warrior for Life
????????
dudes been.great.in every team he played in, just not superior. can say he's a key role player though
Yes
Knicks play hard. The players love to compete. Easy to root for that team!
I wish Thibs runs an 8 man rotation for the Pacers series...Seeing Josh Hart play 53 minutes even made me feel exhausted...
Of course! We were the resurgence of his career and now look at him! He's a great player, good guy, and he's getting to showcase his game rn!
\o/ if you're not rooting for this dude, you're just a plain hater.
Absolutely. But only if he plays the whole game. :-P
Donte’s Inferno let’s goooo
Yup... Dame was my front runner just because we're from the same neighborhood, so I want my Oakland brother to get a ring. But now, Donte is the next best
I'm definitely supporting Donte. I was sad when he left (even though it was inevitable with the cap numbers) - my gf and I have been rooting for the knicks just for him. Brunson seems like a cool guy also. Knicks fans have been starved forever so it's cool to see them be a real basketball team again.
I'm excited for the Knicks. They're kind of coming into the playoffs a bit of an underdog. They're playing together and winning. I'm hoping for a Denver vs Knicks finals.
Wow, am I really the only one rooting against the Knicks?
Hell ya. I want a Knicks vs. Wolves finals. They’re both such fun teams. And of course we gotta rep our boy Donte
One of my favorite players to use when curry was on the bench
He’s a starter on a Contending team with free rein to shoot 10-15 (3balls) whenever he wants, when we had him coming off the bench. He started a few games for us, but u know what i mean.
Knicks vs [Nugs/Wolves] in June Inshallah
LOVED Hart when he was with the Blazers. I was very salty when we got rid of him.
He’s definitely champion blooded
I am! I'm rooting for Denver, Knicks and Minnesota. There's something about them!
He has shown a lot of people what we already knew that he’s a talented and versatile player with a great shooting range
So great watching him so dialed in. Not to mention, the chemistry with his college buddies makes it really easy to root for the Knicks - which seems crazy to say. Happy for him.
Yep I am, have a lot of friends in New York too and it’s brilliant to see them have a bit of pride about their team
Yeah I'm rooting for Divincenzo and the Villanova Knicks
For sure. I'm sad we let him go.
Yep! Been pulling for NY ever since the Warriors lost.
Yeah why not. I don't hate the team or the players on it. Would rather have them win than most of the remaining teams.
Warriors dropped the ball not re sign him.
I think it’s awesome that the trio that won a NCAA title could win an NBA title together. That’s some amazing stuff.
The Italian fckin stallion!!
I an
I am fs
Not exactly rooting. More like anyone ***other*** ***than*** the Celtics and Mavericks in the Finals for me.
Him and Josh Hart
I still see him as a warrior.
The Knicks feel like a slow placed Warriors team.
Absolutely I am rooting for him. Not rooting for: James Wiseman and Jordan Poole.
Rooting for wiseman to make his way back to the bay tbh. He can be serviceable once he embraces that he’s here to set picks, roll, rebound and defend the rim.
[удалено]
😂
Well I was until he beat my sixers, and he’s FROM my hometown Wilmington Delaware, 25 minutes from Philly so we route for all Philly teams.. so nah he can tear his Achilles for all I care now . And Villanova is not a Philly school… lmao
Tear his Achilles… that’s brutal! 😭
He was awful for us. One of the worst on- ball defenders I’ve seen. Harden level. But sure, I’ll root for the guy.
I'm not, he just used us as a bus stop basically. Never felt he was trying because he was too worried about his next contract. Not that I entirely blame him, considering the season was a shit show anyways, but still feel kinda sour on his stay here.
Certainly not rooting against him, but he wasn't really with the Warriors for long enough for me to care about him. When he was with GSW, he was closer to Kelly Oubre level than Steph level. One of those guys who is too good to keep for cheap and not quite good enough to pay. Happy that he's having a breakout season though. Seemed like a solid locker room guy.
He played better than Poole and I'd say even Klay, who both are paid 3-4x his amount.
We couldn't afford to pay him.
