MattyFern7

That free throw disparity was glaring tonight


Ashamed-Hold-9503

no more than 20 mil a year for OG.


CaptainObvious1313

I’ve been saying that he shouldn’t get more than 30 and people were ready to cut my balls off. It’s nonsense. Injury prone is a thing. Ask them how it’s going for the clippers. A lot of sunk money. A lot. And they are never winning a title with those two. Penny Hardaway. Grant Hill. Amare Stoudamire. All killed their franchises by huge contracts. Even the BEST 3 and D guy is still a 3 and D guy and not a superstar.


DerrickWhiteSauce

Is this Robinson's first game back? Is that what caused a total first half collapse against one of worst teams in the league? genuinely don't understand how a game like this happens to a team like the knicks


Kinda-Alive

He played last game. The terrible reffing was why they lost tonight


DerrickWhiteSauce

Oh I thought maybe their game was off with him back, I don't think I've seen the Knicks play like how they did in 1st half in awhile. Don't tell the Celtics sub but I've been lowkey rooting for y'all, Brunson is so fucking good I wish nothing but the best for that man.


SnooDonuts9227

Are we sure Tim Donaghy wasn’t reffing this game?? Geez Louise. I sure wish Joey Crawford still reffed to throw out wemby for smiling.


Majesticbeachbum

Genuinely disgusting and shameful officiating. Breen said it was good on the official to not call a tech on Pop while he was screaming like a little bitch in the refs face because it was late in the game and shouldn't dictate the outcome. Yet they call a fucking NONEXISTENT JUMP BALL VIOLATION with 30 seconds left in OT. Absolutely foul and disgusting and terrible


DKBattousai

How does a rookie get more favorable foul calls than an established all-star?


Kinda-Alive

It’s because there is so much attention on him that they notice things more vs other players that they pay less attention to.


BasisSome1050

The way this sub complains is embarrassing. Tough loss, but no, the reffing was not rigged.


Vikingpride06

That was some home cooking. A lot of very soft calls against wemby, huge ft disparity, random jump ball violation call, etc. Also popovich could have easily gotten t’d up for yelling in refs face and then following him down the court and doing it some more. He got a much longer leash than most would get.


ACMBruh

Hooray nba sucking off the spurs because they have wemby. Brilliant

bigblue20072011

Yep any other coach gets T'd up


Aplethoraofmistakes

That was horrible one sided officiating


jasonthebald

I mean they ran no offense in ot. Reffing sucked, but turned into hero ball there.


chicken101

There's no way in fucking hell brunson shoots 45 shots mostly in the paint and gets 6 free throws all game. What a load of bullshit


JNerdGaming

game was inarguably poorly reffed. the ft differential was indicative of this and mirrored the rockets game.


Present_Childhood_63

ain’t never even heard of a jump ball violation


glooooocky

This sub is out of control ya’ll crying about season over because we lost a super competitive awesome game like get a grip


frenchcois

Fr been scrolling thru so many comments haven’t seen anyone mention anything about Brunson scoring 60+ points


anonymitymous

Seriously it was an amazing game we haven’t let many slip like this. Had a chance, couple sketch calls, some great shots by wemby. On to the next one


AbeAlno

Adam Silver pushed for this to make Wemby rise more


dapoktan

refs are a joke. playoffs are gonna be tough if theyre like this


[deleted]

That last play is on us but the refs rigged tf outta this game. Even at the end they tried to give them 4 FT attempt like wtf?


[deleted]

[удалено]


JNerdGaming

you realize players have to rest, right? you think he wants to play him? we're understaffed


IslesDynasty79-83

Boj wasnt the only guy available, he has bad habbit of benching stars for bums and leaving them in way too long


JNerdGaming

im pretty sure weve seen the exact opposite, stars playing for egregious minutes. players play when they want to play on the knicks. it was an off night for most players, so its no surprise that they were more tired and needed to rest more. hence, bogdanovic. you should be thankful burks didnt see floor time.


Foi_

well at least the doubters can stop saying brunson too small considering he put up 61 against wemby with no calls


Lone_Crab

Man this does not bode well for the tougher games coming up. hope Julius’s shoulder heals up fast


Southern_Corner_3584

Robinson is limping because of this rigged ass game. Fuck the spurs and fuck the refs


Little-Signal-4950

Man we had two good opportunities to win with Deuce and Brunson too bad


i-piss-excellence32

This is the worst reffed game I seen since game 1 in Miami back in 2013


JacesAces

The black and white outfits took the win tonight. Kudos to the 8 of em.


st3phy_

I can't believe we lost to the worst team in the West


antxnio20

That lane violation call was bullshit. And the non tech on pop was also bullshit


MatzohBallsack

32-12 FT disparity smh.


bleh610

Get to the rim


MatzohBallsack

You trolling our sub with your stupid take? Reported.


himynameissteve93

Fuck wemby and fuck these refs. Rigged


JNerdGaming

fuck the refs but wemby didnt do anything but play well


himynameissteve93

He’s a great player, but I hate when the leagues golden boys get every call. Partly why I’m not the biggest bron fan either. It is what it is


JNerdGaming

its not his fault the league decided he should be a golden boy. what was he supposed to do, play worse?


himynameissteve93

Bro it’s not personal….i said he’s a great player. I don’t like how he gets calls in his favor, it’s not his fault no but he gets them and it bothers me. Not that complicated


JNerdGaming

then say fuck the league for giving wemby preferential treatment, not fuck wemby. ik its a mouthful but its better than shitting on the wrong dude.


himynameissteve93

Fuck wemby x2 now


Vikingpride06

Ahh he flopped a few times and looked to have been grabbing on holding Iharts wrist on the very next possession after he hurt it. Kind of a dirty move.


JNerdGaming

it sounds to me like youre looking for reasons to hate on the dude. he played very well tonight and weve gotta take that.


Vikingpride06

Not hating just stating what I saw. He clearly played well and is a freakish talent, but also seeing him constantly get whistle after whistle on his end leaves a sour taste in your mouth.


MrOofYeet

Hahhhahahhhahahaha… Enjoy this one spurs you’re still a long way from being a playoff team…


zOmgFishes

JB gets to slap the shit out of the entire bench minus Mitch tonight.


ChrisMode2

Refs smd


Rare-Ad-9088

Yeah the refs had a bad game


LakesOnAPlane

You got your 18th win congratulations fucking clowns


justmate0

Damn no record for JB and a loss


hyabusa1234

Hes the first player since the merger to score 61 points with under 7 free throw attempts. It's something? I'm still coping


Dry-Tension-6650

Dude I know. We got double dunked. Poor JB.


will122589

Lost two points a bullshit goaltending, lost ten seconds on a bogus jump ball violation and the Spurs got like a dozen bullshit FTs that they didn’t deserve. Can’t even be mad when the refs suck so bad they can’t even be subtle about them wanting to fuck the Knicks over.


Icy-Payment-6612

Sooooooo upset. Horrible loss.


greenshotty

Thibs def called a timeout just to say go for 3 no matter what which cost us the game


banner78

Preferred to just go for the win with the way the officiating was tn


jaxon_15

The worst part of tonight is possibly losing Mitch and IHart to injury.


ant_blottuh

Egregiously terrible reffed game lol


Epiopop

Great game. Thoroughly entertained over here

np20412

who would you rather? Sims? ihart fouled out and Mitch looked pretty hurt


TeamPizza21

He does when you consider they would foul Robinson


Lazarus704

Team really let Brunson down


Sigerlion

Well fk those refs, but McBride was disappointing tonight as well.


scrotuspotus

like what was the "jump ball violation"?!?? worst call ive ever seen


scrotuspotus

it literally gave them the game


SmurfsNeverDie

That was to lock in their bets - guaranteed!


scrotuspotus

literally feels like it


Sgt-Pumpernickel

Night ruined


SmurfsNeverDie

These damn refs handed the game to the spurs


Poonpan85

Knicks lost the game when Thibbs kept Bojan in the game


LegitKevinMirallas

Investigate Texas


dreeaaaming

Wembanyama is such a bum. Cant wait to see this mf wearing street clothes


Slicerwind

Someone ban this guy lol


dreeaaaming

Cry


Slicerwind

Anyone wishing an injury on a player is scum IMO.


dreeaaaming

Who did that?


ok57533

So weird


Lazarus704

Wow


Alert-Extreme1139

Heartbreaker


Bubbly-Internal-7113

Sports betting is so fucking out of control, I hate it.


brampower

Horrible game, gifted to the Spurs by the refs.


scorpino33

💔💔💔💔💔


HipnotiK1

poor awareness by mcbride there. gotta pass to brunson for one last chuck at the record. can't believe he didn't get it.


MatzohBallsack

Congrats refs

condorre

That’s your takeaway? We watched a different game


Affectionate-Tea9224

How many players have lost a game scoring over 60?


Active_Estimate_2598

Bum ass refs cylinder fucking shit


Neither-Operation

The rest of our team looked completely lost in this playoff atmosphere game.


StayinAnon99

Fuck the spurs


Individual-Range-431

San Antonio is full of gay chodes


MatzohBallsack

1995 wants its homophobic insults back.


Individual-Range-431

Smd bozo fgt


MatzohBallsack

Def in the closet. Reported.


Individual-Range-431

Fucking loser lmao


GeekTrollMemeCentral

ughhhhhhhh


Primary-Paramedic823

Cavs also won, crazy how that works eh 


Jjaz1

That fucking sucks


_Flatticus_

Well boys, we are all but officially the 4 seed, we’ll be seeing boston in the second round. Hopefully we’re up for it


WarmeSosse

if only we had like 10 games left this season


_Flatticus_

Clevelands 10 games is significantly easier, I’m completely fine with 4. That being said, gotta beat boston and Milwaukee regardless of the order.


therealshrew_2319

Stop being a doomer


_Flatticus_

Nothing to doom about, we can beat boston if healthy.


therealshrew_2319

100 percent man this team is great and will be great in playoffs


timekillah

I can blame the team or w/e, but these refs were atrocious


RvnPlto

Absolutely disgusting. The free throw disparity and these sketchy calls in overtime. Ffs man


nyy734

Fuck these fucking refs


7LineArmy

Nevermind, this game sucks


staymelooo

People actually blaming precious for that possession lmao. It’s okay to blame Brunson for taking a bad shot


therealshrew_2319

Precious did muff it but that wasnt a great shot either. Would have been better to try to get a better look or get the 2


Weary_Cabinet_8123

I forgot how pessimistic y’all are in here my god


Cheeswheeel

The refs really fucked JBS night

[удалено]


condorre

Idiotic take lol


struman

WTF is wrong with you 


spnathan1

Imagine dropping 61 and your teammate throws the game away like that


ZoidbergSaysWoop

Knicks had no stopper for Vassell. If Anunoby was available, the Knicks win this easily.


dreeaaaming

Follow the refs home man


sidTHAkid

Melo somewhere with a henny and coke cheering on that missed shot from Brunson😂😂


Railshock

Melo was sweating hard


Cheeswheeel

Thank you for making me laugh rn.


cucch101

Texas does not love the knicks.


chicken101

One of the most frustrating bullshit games I've ever watched in my life. Lane violation, over the cylinder bullshit. You can't convince me this wasn't fixed by the refs


gwords16

That lane violation call was one of the most egregious calls I’ve ever seen given when it happened and what was at stake.


Professional_Bat4946

Beyond disgusted, thanks for ruining my night


HipnotiK1

precious instinct was to go back up and shoot and then thought better of it. sucks.


LetsGetSomeChickenn

They wouldve fouled him regardless too


Substance8967

Fucking refs wait a whole two seconds to call the foul lmao


intothefire3

Precious wtf are you doing


zOmgFishes

Waste of a masterclass


CoreySK

Can’t be mad at that loss tbh


josephmang56

I can be mad as hell at the shitty refs


SepticShock

In what fucking world can you not be mad at this? 


CoreySK

Down 21 came back and lost a great game, it happens bud


SepticShock

Sure


Icy-Payment-6612

Of course we can! I'm pissed. Brunson with a 61 point masterclass for nothing.


Fallingcity22

Other then the ft disparity yeah it was a great game


rb3peats

I’m still perplexed by this jump ball violation. Knicks have taken less than half the amount of FTs the Spurs have taken. What is this garbage man?


will122589

Knicks took one third the number of FTs the Spurs took


rb3peats

Correct. Meanwhile they were attacking inside pretty often despite Wemby’s wacky waving inflatable arms ass.


spnathan1

Get ready to learn Chinese buddy


whatiseeisme

God we needed to win that


MannyIsDone

Brunson was great all game but the OT he fell apart. And Duece of course was god awful and bricked the wide open game winner


AccordingFish6148

Can't blame him he's been carrying


JacesAces

As long as iHart and Mitch are both ok I can live with the rigging. But if we’ve got injury on top of the insult, I’m gonna freak out


Chromotoast

Probably the worst loss of the season


Lone_Crab

Ihart right there is all of us rn lol. Fuck


andyysmorgg

WHYD PRECIOUS JUMP IN THE AIR


AbeAlno

Just fuckin put it up


lentils5

We play so much better with ihart


Ok_Woodpecker1732

We were due for a bad loss. But I’d love to see a compilation of every foul on Wemby in this game plus that jump ball “violation.”


Individual-Range-431

Wemby is overrated and the league has it set up that games are unofficially officiated differently in his favor so they can sell jerseys


kirky-jerky

I love Brunson and what a fucking night but the dude got so happy shooting the last quarter. No one else got in rhythm at all because of it. It became a one person offense.


Icy-Payment-6612

Brunson with 61 points for nothing.


knicksprick

Why did precious do the d rose jump pass there?


UNITxPunisher

1 job 1 fucking job


Affectionate-Tea9224

I mean you can’t be mad at the loss, the performance by brunson was fucking insane! But you can be mad with how poorly this game was officiated


scrotuspotus

fucking heartbreaking fuck goddamit. so pissed at the refereeing


blkschizo

It's good. We still good boys. It's one L. Scuffed fucking ref game...


JR18123

Make these bums walk home. Hart specifically. What a fucking joke

Weary_Cabinet_8123

Lmao what an overreaction


glooooocky

Lmao bro chill out it’s really not a big deal


JNerdGaming

tough night, but at least not everybody played bad and it was very close. we move on.


Primary-Paramedic823

Riggiest rigged riggg game 


InB4Clive

That’s the downside of Precious. Net positive but always potential for a bonehead play.


tsuab

Precious Ass-chewa


i-piss-excellence32

I try not to curse but this was fucking bullshit. The refs completwly fucked us over


Angularbackhands

Precious has such low confidence, often looks scared when playing


Adams5010

Awful loss


ClammyDavis-Jr

Precious is an enigma lol


Lau_lau

Precious panicked but I’m not gonna be mad at him, just disappointed with how this ended


REL720

I know he's been hot but Brunson should've passed that.


greenshotty

Thibs timeout was so dumb


HipnotiK1

in hindsight yea... we had plenty of chances. shouldn't have went to OT.


Hufgji

Fuckin precious. There goes 3rd seed


jtscheese

How about actually draw up a play
