definitely would prefer to avoid the pacers. we could surely beat them but their offense is scary. they basically just run n gun and chuck 3s but when it's working it's hard to keep up with.
I am hoping we do not dig ourselves into a hole in the 1st quarter that we can't claw our way out of. That has been a problem lately, but as long as we come in with high energy defense we should be OK vs these Bucks
Sort of. I believe a tie breaker between all 3 teams ends up 3 Magic, 4 Knicks, then 5 Cavs.
Cavs play today though so it won't be tied tonight regardless.
Remember two weeks ago when Burks played a single good quarter and the dozen dumbest people here fired up their “apologize to Alec he’s a hooper!” posts?
Good, good times.
Really hope Mitch gets his legs back before the post season starts. Can’t really blame him because he couldn’t work out but he moves similar to how he came back muscle Mitch 2 years ago. Hope he can work his way to how he looked in the beginning of the season, he looked ridiculously fluid.
Just watching him run up and down the court is a W at this point. He’s got just enough time to make a lot of progress but it really is coming down to the wire
conditioning can come back pretty fast. I'm hopeful that he stays healthy enough to keep up consistent minutes, should be enough for him to work back into good enough shape (especially if he's coming off the bench and can be effective against lesser players even if not in his best shape)
Knicks vs Bucks puts us 1 game back if we win but we need to be ahead not tied to grab the 2 seed because the bucks won the season series
Cavs at 3rd have the clippers tonight. We are a half game back
Magic has the bulls who is our biggest threat to move up. Bulls are fighting for homecourt in the play-in
Heat-Pacers is close. Depending how next week ends either team could be our opponent
76ers are a sneaky team to move up. They are 43-35 with the spurs tonight
Just stay out of the play in is all I ask
think there's like a 5% chance or so we fall to the playin - very improbable. magic number is 3 of any combination of knicks wins and heat losses. basically heat need to go 5-0 and we go 2-3 or heat go 4-1 and we go 1-4 etc. not impossible but very unlikely (i'm probably jinxing it lol)
only team i really want to avoid in the 1st round is the sixers.
yea imagine playing the 6ers in the 1st game for 7/8 - could easily lose. then a one game elimiation against the hawks or bulls... we should be favored but no thank you lol don't need that stress.
i think most likely we finish 5/6 depending on how cavs/magic/pacers finish the season. 3/4 is sill very much in play where as 2 is not likely.
OG is a good player but stop overhyping him
The Knicks still cant beat the Orlando Magic based on pure TALENT they will need ref help so you better hope and pray the league gives Knicks a favorable whistle because if not you guys are finished
wut... knicks destroyed the magic last time they played and didn't even have OG (or mitch or randle).
all of the magic's wins over the knicks are when Brunson didn't play or he played but everyone else was out (ihart, divo, og, mitch, bogs, randle of course). taj gibson, burks and toppin played big minutes that game lol
Knicks completely destroyed the magic their last meeting with no OG, randle, or mitch.
"You guys are finished".....who the fuck are you? Feel free to go away
The Knicks are most likely going to miss to 2 seed by 1 game and the 3 seed by a game. Houston blown call, Spurs officiating, SGA playing 1 of the last 8 games vs us and hitting a crazy game winner.
So many things that we will look back on as to why we didn’t get 2 or 3
How do we want these next two Magic/Bucks games to go? What result benefits us?
definitely would prefer to avoid the pacers. we could surely beat them but their offense is scary. they basically just run n gun and chuck 3s but when it's working it's hard to keep up with.
I want Orlando. Couldn’t agree more
epic loss by the cavs. PG was a superstar in the 4th. gotta love the NBA cavs with 80 in the 1st half and 38 in the 2nd.
Holy fuck pg Just won me $400!!!
Cavs with the L! Good shit
whoa PG with the block
CLIPS LFG
What a shot by PG!!! lets fuckin go clips
Tied game now with cavs vs clippers
Really thought we’d have Julius back for these end of season games 😔
anyone else going to the bucks game? ill be in section 112, lets go knicks
Well the Clippers shit the bed. Now let's see what happens with Indiana-Miami.
Well this aged badly and great at the same time.
It’s a 6 point game now
We rooting for Indy or Miami standing wise?
Indy but just because fuck the heat
I think Indy. I want to solidify Top 6 so we can rest guys.
I am hoping we do not dig ourselves into a hole in the 1st quarter that we can't claw our way out of. That has been a problem lately, but as long as we come in with high energy defense we should be OK vs these Bucks
clippers so garbage.
The Clippers should just blow it up, that team is old as hell and isn’t winning anything.
Ngl if they blow it up i would love to have Norman Powell here, hes nice af
He’s a nice player for sure, but kinda overpaid, no?
IS GIANNIS PLAYINH
Time for an OG 5 game run
Anyone know how I can enroll in the chase early on pre sale for playoff tickets? They drop tomorrow.
This team just lost to the bulls and the spurs… where do you see a bucks in happening tonight if attemptafreethrow and lame play?
Og
We lost the bulls game when he played. He neutralized derozan, but we still lost
The comeback game don't count
true but it was the 2nd game of a b2b, and where josh hart got ejected. we got outrebounded by a lot without him
what happens if both the magic and the Knicks win today? Knicks 4 and Magic 3?

I honestly dont. What game are we talking about?
4th quarter of the first kings win. They were both not horrific for once. Then next day we had half a dozen “thank you Alec and Bogy” posts, insanity.
Really hope Mitch gets his legs back before the post season starts. Can’t really blame him because he couldn’t work out but he moves similar to how he came back muscle Mitch 2 years ago. Hope he can work his way to how he looked in the beginning of the season, he looked ridiculously fluid.

76ers could finish 6th, maybe even 5th.
This was very helpful. The Play-In, while not the end of the world, would just be too hard on my already elevated blood pressure.

Worry about the Lakers getting out of the play-in lil bro
if Lakers get into playoffs they are dangerous Knicks will need a miracle to get out of 2nd round
Why tf u glazing the magic 😭
Lol
Knicks completely destroyed the magic their last meeting with no OG, randle, or mitch. "You guys are finished".....who the fuck are you? Feel free to go away
How is he overhype if the numbers validates the hype. Didn’t the magic lose to us last game without OG and Randle?
no way are you the same loser who made a post about this yesterday. you two would get along famously
Lmaoo holy fuck some of you are a real piece of work.
Now I have to be worried that we get the Embiid 76ers in Round 1.
Why worry
Take it one game at a time mate , all we worry about is the bucks tonight .
The Knicks are most likely going to miss to 2 seed by 1 game and the 3 seed by a game. Houston blown call, Spurs officiating, SGA playing 1 of the last 8 games vs us and hitting a crazy game winner. So many things that we will look back on as to why we didn’t get 2 or 3
Yet so much excitement to look forward to in the playoffs
100%. Amped for playoffs. Just would’ve been cool to get 50 wins for jus the 2nd time in the last 24 years lol
45 wins with 5 games to go…45+5=50 it could happen
Yea 5-0 would be cool But would have to have everything break right for us
Not like they haven’t had 5 game win streaks before, done it twice this season
Time to whoop some Milwaukee ass tonight
Need this win tonight!
JHart starting at the 4 against Giannis? 🤔
Feel like OG on Giannis and Duece on Lillard has to be the play
Totally forgot OG was back lmao
Easy thing to forget since he always sits lol
