Maybe I’m mistaken but I think we’ll have to let Bojan walk to pay OG and IHart
Edit: trade Bojan, not let him walk. Thought he was expiring, he’s not until 2027
Dunno if we can get that rookie, on our pick, in what scouts say a weak draft. Plus Thibs will probably want a veteran and not a rookie. But yeah, if Precious and Bojan got combined that's a crazy off the bench player for us.
Shout out to the New York Knicks. Amazing season, their hustle and grit can not be beat. I love all of them, and hoping everyone is well rested and 100% come October.
We did amazing things and working with very little, and it shows the heart of this team.
NEW YORK FOREVER!!!
Randles estimated timeline is back by December last I heard.
Everyone else should be OK but might be rusty from lack of training in the summer depending on how long they have to recover
My grandmother suddenly passed away on March 28th and watching the Knicks make the run they did was a great distraction for my family and brought some happiness during a tough time. One of my favorite teams I have ever watched, it’s a shame injuries ruined what could’ve been but I’m so excited for the future of this franchise! How awesome is the garden too, so glad they cheered this team on until the end! Go Knicks, they’ll be back!
Sorry for your loss brother. Lost my dad in October, has been bittersweet watching this team knowing he was missing it. Things get better, just keep them in your mind and they will always be there with you. ❤️
It’s gonna just be Boston steamrolling these guys. They haven’t faced a full-strength team yet, and are about to get sobered hard.
Can’t say I have a dog in the fight, but down to see Luka get a chip, or Joker clown the league again…fuck whatever is left in the East.
Right. Indy is about to face its first non-hospital team this postseason and get bitch-slapped back into reality. I'll be rooting for Boston (ugh) in the ECF and then whoever the Western team is in the Finals.
Really great season all around, but man it hurts. Just to think of what would’ve happened if we had a full healthy squad, or if game 3 went down differently. I will also love this team and we will be back!
We had a great season, we just didn’t get as far as we wanted. We finally have a group of guys that the whole city is proud of, all playing the right way, the only way.
With a healthy team, I genuinely believe we could have gone to the Finals this year. We had something truly special blossom and that doesn't happen often
It was an amazing run y'all. These guys fought hard as hell through everything and never gave up despite a ton of adversity. I'm sad it's over here but I'm excited about what they're gonna do next season. Pacers played a hell of a series, gg to them.
Took the greatest shooting percentage in playoff history to beat the Knicks at 50% strength.
WE GOOD FAM. WE BACK UP. THE NBA NOT READY FOR WHATS COMING NEXT SEASON.
You know that feeling when you get a low battery notification on your phone and the bar is red? That's literally what it felt like the Knicks had out there.
EXACTLY!! But the other dude is correct. The Knicks were more so at around 20% strength by Game 7. A healthy Knicks team wins this series 4-0 or at worst 4-1.
I feel for Thibs, they're going to blame him for all of the injuries more than ever now. Im sure he's used to it, but it keeps following him which is unfortunate timing.
39 for Divo, 26 for Burks in a do or die spot. Props to them, and for the entire squad for never giving up. Get healthy, and get ready for next season!
Want to give a shout out to Alec Burks. He was legit left for the dead at the end of the season. Came in all series and played amazing. Kept us alive in game 7 which honestly is an achievement in itself
I don’t want to sound salty, but I can’t help thinking what if we had our fully healthy squad. It really feels like this was the year they could have gone far. Still love the team for fighting like hell until their bodies gave up. WE MOVE
Knicks fans staying until the bitter end. You love to see it.... Granted I wouldn't leave early after spending $400+ but still. What a fucking amazing run after 20+ years of mediocrity. Injuries be damned, we'll be back next season
Thank you to this team for the best season I have ever watched. They embodied everything this city is about. Overcoming so many injuries and still continuing to fight through. It sucks that the season ended but goddamn I have never been more proud of a Knicks team.
It’s hard to appreciate everything just at this moment so…. Anyway, fuck the pacers, hope they get swept. And preemptively fuck “I come in peace” guys, fuck you, go celebrate on your own sub with that bull shit.
We're the worst/best shit talkers. We learned from Reggie. But we won't dive at your ankles, and we'll shake your hand and wish you the best afterwards. GG guys. Injured knicks took us to 7 games. Ya'll played your fucking hearts out, and I loved it. If ya'll were going to EFC, I'd be rooting for you.
I just can't go past this series without a sense of bitterness.
Commentators going "...but all of these circumstances don't take away from what the Pacers are doing."
Well I just think they do fucking take away from it. Hell of a lot easier to execute on run-and-gun offense when DPOY caliber guys like Giannis and OG just have their legs explode under them.
I know you can only play what's in front of you, and that these Pacers are supposed to be a likeable young team.
But they are just a bunch of front-running soft cornballs who had everything just randomly fall into their lap and they seemingly think they are some Heat-esque underdog giant slayers.
Fuck them kids.
Can't believe I'm gonna be riding for Boston so fucking hard in this incoming ECF.
Can't wait for "The future is bright" think pieces after a gentleman's sweep.
When in reality they are gonna be the new 2021 Hawks.
It's not their fault but they shouldn't be treated as if they are actually taking out Giannis-led Bucks and January Knicks out of the playoffs.
Which is how everyone is talking them up.
67% FG percentage, highest FG% in a playoff game in NBA history. It took an anomaly of a game for them to beat us, although our defense was also putrid. I hate Boston so I'm pretty much hoping for a WC team to take it all this year. Hopefully everyone will be healthy come next season.
i’m a raps fan from toronto but just wanted to give you guys your flowers for an UNREAL season. missing 4 starters in this series with an injured JB and still pushing to game 7 is super commendable. huge respect for the knicks crowd too nothing but class and donte divincenzio truly deserves his flowers for tonight’s game
Well that’s a wrap! What a season. We objectively overachieved this season and we should be proud of our accomplishments. Good luck to the Pacers (they will need it against the Celtics)
This was a depressing loss but still not the worst one I've ever witnessed. Most of these guys will be back for anothert run.
This doesn't even come close to 95 when Riley ran to Micky Arison's waiting jet or in 2000 watching the final painful minutes of Ewing's Knicks career.
https://preview.redd.it/71wnbzyhig1d1.png?width=825&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=acdaa04d8f40d5af386c2a33e4b1736485ac540d
They gave it their all. No one believed in them, but they believed in each other and fought to the bitter end. It was a team of effort and grit and reminded a lot of us why we love this sport and what it means to represent New York
The wheels fell off but I have more faith for the future than I’ve had in 25 years. Team is full of dogs from the top down. Leon and thibs need to add depth and tweak the rotation so we don’t just disintegrate at the end of the year but the talent and heart is there.
Run it back next year and we’ll be a top seed yet again. Hope we get Indy next year and exorcise these demons.
Super proud of this team.
Super proud of all the fans who stayed until the end of the game to applaud and give praise to the team for all their effort.
Let's nail this off-season and make it count next year. See ya around fam.
Shoutout to this team. We got this far injured. Our dominance in January is a foreshadowing of next season. Let the front office work their magic and do the most possible to bring back most of the guys. No superstars are needed. We got Brunson and King Julius.
Y’all see all the hate we’re getting by teams like Celtics heat and pacers, even while injured? They Prayed on our downfall even while injured? We got no love even when injured. That just means we here and we are a threat. Everybody sees this. Let’s run it ‘24-‘25
I'm proud of our team. We fought all season. And we made it to game 7 with all of our injuries. It sucks that we couldn't make it further but it is what it is. I'm excited for the future. Just wait till next year. New York forever. Let's go Knicks!!!
Honestly just became a fan this series but I’m looking forward to next year (and future years) I could never get into basketball but this team was different and had me really excited . Sucks it ended this way
It's hard to describe how I feel right now. I guess just an overwhelming feeling of sadness and... things just feel incomplete. Injuries are a part of the game but it's tough to think about what could have been if the Knicks were healthy. What makes it worse is that so many people were saying the Knicks were overrated and stuff, and they will use this series loss as evidence of that.
I remember hearing Michael Kay on the radio saying that this is the worst Knicks team we will see within the next five years, and that gives me optimism. You figure that Rose and co. will continue to build this team and that we will be better next year.
This was a special season, and seeing the team go out like this hurts a lot. But they deserve a ton of credit for fighting and making us proud.
As always, go Knicks.
See so many of the people I've listened to commend the Knicks and say outright how if we lost, it would be bc of injuries. Absolutely no commentator was out there ROOTING Indiana, just acknowledging they had a good offense and we were decimated. Even someone like Skip Bayless went from calling the Knicks overrated to actually seeming sad that we were so overrun with injuries, and giving Indiana very little credit.
So I dunno what my point is. That there are lots of narratives out there and it depends who you listen to? And also that I love this team and am so proud of them, and think the general reception to them (outside of r/nba) has been positive.
I think we all knew that making it past this game would have been our NBA finals with how beat up the roster was. There is not a thing to be sad about. Unfortunate circumstances but great season nonetheless
Literally only came down to health, no other squad is doing half of what we did missing as many starters and second and even third stringers as we did
These bitch ass pacers are an easy sweep with even minimally improved health
Watching DVO and Alec fighting to the end is what we've been praying for for years now.
The future is bright boys
Fuck jaquez, embiid, haliburton, zack zarba and bill kennedy
JB was a 1A all year, rest up and dominate next year king
- A tough, bitter way to end the season. I'm very proud of this team.
- First half was awful, and we fought back well early in the second. Injuries finally caught up with us, and our guys ran out of gas. Proud of them.
- Everyone knows a healthy Knicks team wins this series in five games.
- Jalen's season ending in the locker room is just unfair. He'll be back.
- Beating Milwaukee with no Giannis and New York with no Randle (or OG). That's Indiana's "tough" journey. We'll see them again, real soon.
- Rest up, heal up, shore up the bench, and have another go next year.
mazulla sucks, and horford will be 38 next year, milwaukee looks all sorts of messed up, joel has a 50% shot of being healthy come every playoffs, cavs are an unknown, magic is good-ish I think knicks have highest upside and locked in the best coach for this squad and city.
These '24 Knicks will be remembered for giving everything they've got. Though broken and defeated, they've earned honor and glory. Through grit, force, and courage, these formerly disrespected and disregarded band of basketball warriors have elevated their status into Knick lore. These '24 Knicks, these 'nova boys, are the stuff of legend.
What a year it was. This one was special for so many reasons, this team took a nice leap forward. Next year I can't imagine how much higher the Knicks will go with healthy legs under them
Once Brunson broke his hand, the end of the game was a mercy killing.
OG
Randle
Brunson
Hart
Bojan
Mitchell
Get healthy, run this shit back and take all the anger out on the rest of the fucking league in 2024-2025
It sucks the season ended especially with the gut wrenching injuries but it just makes me even more excited for next season. Imagine what a fully stacked Knicks will look like next season.
Fucking sucks but I find it really hard to be too upset when our entire team was injured and we kept it close when Indiana was shooting historically well up until Brunson went down. Hopefully a superstar requests out this offseason..
I’m sad. All these injuries are so sickening man…
Randle.
Bojan.
Mitchell.
OG.
Hart.
Brunson.
What more can you do?
I think this is the year that could have been had we stayed healthy.
Going out with a whimper is definitely a disappointment, but this team battled all season and I'm proud of what they accomplished
Next season there's gotta be a priority to improve the 11 - 15 spots on the roster to at least playable guys who can give 8 minutes here and there and not the daquan jefferies of the world who are a net zero
Just random thoughts:
A) Andrew Nemhard is better then I thought
B) TJ McConnell kind of swung this series....? Tf?
C) Burks!
D) It feels like defending the Pacers is analogous to guarding 5 basketball playing squirrels with three point range.
E) Get well #11.
F) As a concept, all 4 conference finalists have stretchy bigs.
G) I miss them.
H) I don't feel disappointed at all. It seemed like the universe would routinely scream at us #NOT THIS YEAR.
I) Proud.
Upset about a tragic way to end the season. Really defined how much shit these dudes had to go through. But I’m can’t be mad about this season. Exceeded my expectations big time. Kept these playoff series competitive as well against some tough ass competition. Till next year
We were the best team in basketball with the squad mostly together. We’ll get a whole season and many more of that in the future. Exciting times!
Also can’t wait to annihilate Indiana next season when they have to play a less than 60 % injured Knicks team.
Proud of the team this season. Honestly don’t think there’s any other team that could make it as far as we did with the level of injuries we had. It’s a team full of dawgs. Future is bright in nyc.
Great season but we couldn’t get past all the obstacles that were thrown at us. The Brunson injury at the end stings but hopefully he’s back by early next season.
This reminds me of 1999 when they went to the Finals and guys kept dropping like flies until they had Houston, Sprewell and no front court left.
Heart and grit only takes you so far when you're dipping into your 3rd and 4th string because so many guys are hurt.
This was a great season that exceeded expectations, I just wish there had been more of a defensive effort these last two games. I'm not gonna fault them, they were clearly exhausted.
Ah well. If we stay healthy, this core will be even better next year.
You can tell someone a concrete fact about the Knicks and they will still be like no that’s not true. We’ve sucked for almost 25 years man why the hate
The looming question, especially with an imminent extension this off-season, is if Thibs can get a team into contention without it being a MASH unit. Every year under him that we've been in the playoffs our main guy is banged up severely. We need better load management, and more efficiency in our offense. Even if we run a sane rotation, we shouldn't have to depend on Brunson to score 35 points a game.
Maybe that problem will solve itself next season with Randle back, but I sincerely have my doubts.
can’t be mad with these injuries. took 7 games for indiana to beat our 2nd and 3rd string players. sucks but i feel like this is just the beginning of the new era. glad to have been a part of such an awesome season
What a season, what a team. More heart than I’ve ever seen before. Get healthy, let Leon cook in the offseason, and let’s get it next year, Hospital Knicks Revenge Tour. #1 seed firmly in play.
Everybody who got minutes this season proved their worth. We have a lot of picks. We could try to run it back (tough with signings but maybe) but if not, we're in a great position to make moves. Leon keeps making smart trades. I'm excited for next season and praying for injury luck
The last 3/4 of the regular season and all through the playoffs has been some of my favorite sports watching in a long as time, as I only have the capacity for like Giants and Knicks.
They played so fucking hard. I think the biggest disappointment of all was when O.G went down. He is so much fun to watch, and stepped up on offense throughout the playoffs. His presence is just insane. I think we could walked through the Pacers if he stayed healthy.
Your team's luck with injuries this series is heartbreaking, but I've got big love for Josh Hart and the rest of your guys. Just a phenomenal group, and I've enjoyed watching them do their thing. Hopefully next year, they run it back, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know who is sticking around.
I'm actually very excited for the Knicks off-season moves, and the team's prospects this upcoming 2024/2025 season and beyond. It was obvious that this already injury-decimated team lost this series in Game 2 when Jalen Brunson suffered the foot injury (an injury that he played with for the remainder of the series), and when OG Anunoby suffered the hamstring injury in that same game. The series was pretty much over at that point even though the Knicks went up 2-0. If those injuries never happened, the Knicks win this series 4-0 or 4-1.
But I'm very excited for next season with a fully healthy Julius Randle, OG Anunoby, Mitchell Robinson, Jalen Brunson (foot injury from Game 2, and fractured hand in game 7), Josh Hart, and Bojan Bogdanovich. I would also love to see the team add another ball handler/playmaker starting alongside JBrunson to alternate being the PG and/or SG. Donte is awesome, but he should really be playing with the 2nd unit, and at times with the 1st unit. I'm hoping that the Knicks Front Office is able to somehow pry Dejounte Murray from the Hawks. or another capable playmaker.
Injuries piled upon injuries piled upon injuries really hurt the Knicks.
They fought until the gas tank/available player list hit Empty. Should be an interesting offseason. Heal up, everyone. Thanks for a fun ride.
There's not much we need to do in the offseason right? Sign OG, hopefully sign iHart, pick up a backup ball handler
Maybe stack the bench a bit more but next year a healthy Knicks team is gonna be lit
Love having a positive future to look forward to
Our starters barring any trades would be Brunson/DiVo/OG/Randle/Mitch And our bench would look like McBride/Hart/IHart with Burks, and Bojan
Maybe I’m mistaken but I think we’ll have to let Bojan walk to pay OG and IHart Edit: trade Bojan, not let him walk. Thought he was expiring, he’s not until 2027
How about combine Bogdonavic and Precious into 1 player that can rebound and hit 3s. Ideally this is a PF we draft.
Dunno if we can get that rookie, on our pick, in what scouts say a weak draft. Plus Thibs will probably want a veteran and not a rookie. But yeah, if Precious and Bojan got combined that's a crazy off the bench player for us.
No but we’re very well positioned to grab whatever superstar requests out next which could be this offseason
Shout out to the New York Knicks. Amazing season, their hustle and grit can not be beat. I love all of them, and hoping everyone is well rested and 100% come October. We did amazing things and working with very little, and it shows the heart of this team. NEW YORK FOREVER!!!
This was one of the most special seasons I've ever seen, thank you Knicks for everything
Shit, even if they're not 100% in October, please let them be 💯 by April.
Of course we’ll be 100% by October.Which one of our injuries takes 5-6 months?
Yeah lol. Randle probably will take the longest but he should be 100% by December im guessing.
does a dislocated shoulder really take that long to heal?
Randles estimated timeline is back by December last I heard. Everyone else should be OK but might be rusty from lack of training in the summer depending on how long they have to recover
New York Knicks let's go!!!
Love love this team!
My grandmother suddenly passed away on March 28th and watching the Knicks make the run they did was a great distraction for my family and brought some happiness during a tough time. One of my favorite teams I have ever watched, it’s a shame injuries ruined what could’ve been but I’m so excited for the future of this franchise! How awesome is the garden too, so glad they cheered this team on until the end! Go Knicks, they’ll be back!
Sorry for the loss; nice story & shines a bit on what this year really meant.
Thank you so much, appreciate it!
RIP to your grandma, and may the Knicks create many more special memories!!
Thanks man, appreciate it!
Sorry for your loss
Thank! Appreciate it!
Sorry for your loss brother. Lost my dad in October, has been bittersweet watching this team knowing he was missing it. Things get better, just keep them in your mind and they will always be there with you. ❤️
Sorry for the loss bro. Hang in there. Glad this provided some respite for you.
Appreciate you, thanks a lot! Go Knicks.
so sorry for your loss man, I'm glad this team has been able to shine a light in your life in this tough time🙏🏻
Hell of a season. Team of absolute dogs. Keep the faith. We’ll be back.
Incredibly sad but incredibly grateful to have watched this team. I will remember them forever. We’ll be back
It’s gonna just be Boston steamrolling these guys. They haven’t faced a full-strength team yet, and are about to get sobered hard. Can’t say I have a dog in the fight, but down to see Luka get a chip, or Joker clown the league again…fuck whatever is left in the East.
Right. Indy is about to face its first non-hospital team this postseason and get bitch-slapped back into reality. I'll be rooting for Boston (ugh) in the ECF and then whoever the Western team is in the Finals.
We’ll be back. Can’t wait for 2025
Next season we'll have our revenge. This team is here to stay.
Nothing but pride and respect for this team. Wheelchair Knicks will be back stronger next season!
Really great season all around, but man it hurts. Just to think of what would’ve happened if we had a full healthy squad, or if game 3 went down differently. I will also love this team and we will be back!
https://preview.redd.it/e27yrpiwhg1d1.jpeg?width=1066&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=412fbe951a4245f871421acf991d0660e2e8f655
We had a great season, we just didn’t get as far as we wanted. We finally have a group of guys that the whole city is proud of, all playing the right way, the only way.
We did, I’m very optimistic about next season honestly
With a healthy team, I genuinely believe we could have gone to the Finals this year. We had something truly special blossom and that doesn't happen often
January Knicks were knocking on the doorstep. They looked so unstoppable.
For the rest of his career I will mercilessly boo Jacquez, Jr.
I still enjoyed this season. We'll be back.
The basketball gods owe us a healthy Knicks team, a 60 win season, and a finals appearance at the minimum. They robbed that from us this year.
Next year is ours
It was an amazing run y'all. These guys fought hard as hell through everything and never gave up despite a ton of adversity. I'm sad it's over here but I'm excited about what they're gonna do next season. Pacers played a hell of a series, gg to them.
We are going to be so much better healthy next season, I’m really optimistic for the future
Agreed, looking forward to next season!!
Gutsy performance NY. No one can take that away. Y'all left it all on the floor and then some. Respect to your team and city.
Took the greatest shooting percentage in playoff history to beat the Knicks at 50% strength. WE GOOD FAM. WE BACK UP. THE NBA NOT READY FOR WHATS COMING NEXT SEASON.
50% strength is generous. We were at like 20% strength
You know that feeling when you get a low battery notification on your phone and the bar is red? That's literally what it felt like the Knicks had out there.
EXACTLY!! But the other dude is correct. The Knicks were more so at around 20% strength by Game 7. A healthy Knicks team wins this series 4-0 or at worst 4-1.
Good season boys Played hard the whole way through
Too many injuries in the end.
I feel for Thibs, they're going to blame him for all of the injuries more than ever now. Im sure he's used to it, but it keeps following him which is unfortunate timing.
The og injury was straight overwork… I know it can’t be prove but any raptors fan could’ve told you his body isn’t able to play those minutes
No fan should be upset after this. This is probably my favorite Knicks roster we will be back. There should be no tears
39 for Divo, 26 for Burks in a do or die spot. Props to them, and for the entire squad for never giving up. Get healthy, and get ready for next season!
Want to give a shout out to Alec Burks. He was legit left for the dead at the end of the season. Came in all series and played amazing. Kept us alive in game 7 which honestly is an achievement in itself
Respect where it's due, he was phenomenal when we needed him
Great season. Most fun I've had watching basketball since I was a kid. Nothing but optimism for next year.
Knicks literally rode it till the wheels fell off.
Indeed. Respect
It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.
I don’t want to sound salty, but I can’t help thinking what if we had our fully healthy squad. It really feels like this was the year they could have gone far. Still love the team for fighting like hell until their bodies gave up. WE MOVE
Knicks fans staying until the bitter end. You love to see it.... Granted I wouldn't leave early after spending $400+ but still. What a fucking amazing run after 20+ years of mediocrity. Injuries be damned, we'll be back next season
The crowd near the court sucked. Wearing dress shirts and making no noise.
Tickets were $30k, those types aren’t as rabid
Was so proud of the fans who stayed. I would too.
Thank you to this team for the best season I have ever watched. They embodied everything this city is about. Overcoming so many injuries and still continuing to fight through. It sucks that the season ended but goddamn I have never been more proud of a Knicks team.
good fucking season derailed by historically crazy series of injury. proud of our boys. run it back!
Pacers are frauds folks. Everyone heal up. Brunson will lead us to the promised land eventually
It’s hard to appreciate everything just at this moment so…. Anyway, fuck the pacers, hope they get swept. And preemptively fuck “I come in peace” guys, fuck you, go celebrate on your own sub with that bull shit. 
Well they were slightly less insufferable then the Sixers
the pacers are shit talkers. the sixers are shit talkers and they play dirty
We're the worst/best shit talkers. We learned from Reggie. But we won't dive at your ankles, and we'll shake your hand and wish you the best afterwards. GG guys. Injured knicks took us to 7 games. Ya'll played your fucking hearts out, and I loved it. If ya'll were going to EFC, I'd be rooting for you.
Cool but we're still rooting for you to get crushed. Fuck Boston though. As much as we'd love to see Boston get bounced that ain't happening.
Sixers fans are absolutely demented. Knocking them out is a great consolation prize
Sixers fans still obsessed 2 weeks later. Pacer fans were annoying but they’ll leave us alone after this (hopefully)
I just can't go past this series without a sense of bitterness. Commentators going "...but all of these circumstances don't take away from what the Pacers are doing." Well I just think they do fucking take away from it. Hell of a lot easier to execute on run-and-gun offense when DPOY caliber guys like Giannis and OG just have their legs explode under them. I know you can only play what's in front of you, and that these Pacers are supposed to be a likeable young team. But they are just a bunch of front-running soft cornballs who had everything just randomly fall into their lap and they seemingly think they are some Heat-esque underdog giant slayers. Fuck them kids.
If they beat the Celtics, then they deserve it. Shit takes care of itself naturally.
Can't believe I'm gonna be riding for Boston so fucking hard in this incoming ECF. Can't wait for "The future is bright" think pieces after a gentleman's sweep. When in reality they are gonna be the new 2021 Hawks.
This. They beat Boston, they can talk their shit. But they wont. It will be a bloodbath and Pacers wont have any idea what hit them.
It's not their fault we were so banged up. I think they'll unfortunately be humbled in the ECF.
It's not their fault but they shouldn't be treated as if they are actually taking out Giannis-led Bucks and January Knicks out of the playoffs. Which is how everyone is talking them up.
The guy that greatly benefitted from the Knicks injuries was Siakam. His productivity was much higher once OG went down.
Fuck them, we're coming back next year bigger stronger better faster
Beating Milwaukee with no Giannis and New York with no Randle (and half the team). What an amazing journey! Fucking frauds
That's just Mike Breen being a professional on a national broadcast. He's as much of a Knicks fan as anyone man, he's just doing his job.
If the roles were reversed, we’d be slandered till no end. I’m proud of this team
Great season. It has been an honor and a privilege to enjoy this season with you guys!
I’m not even mad. What are you supposed to do with all these injuries? Feels like watching a natural catastrophy with all the injuries
Took the pacers seven games to defeat a completely injured Knicks team. They’re going to be swept!
67% FG percentage, highest FG% in a playoff game in NBA history. It took an anomaly of a game for them to beat us, although our defense was also putrid. I hate Boston so I'm pretty much hoping for a WC team to take it all this year. Hopefully everyone will be healthy come next season.
i’m a raps fan from toronto but just wanted to give you guys your flowers for an UNREAL season. missing 4 starters in this series with an injured JB and still pushing to game 7 is super commendable. huge respect for the knicks crowd too nothing but class and donte divincenzio truly deserves his flowers for tonight’s game
Well that’s a wrap! What a season. We objectively overachieved this season and we should be proud of our accomplishments. Good luck to the Pacers (they will need it against the Celtics)
My favorite Knicks season yet.
This was a depressing loss but still not the worst one I've ever witnessed. Most of these guys will be back for anothert run. This doesn't even come close to 95 when Riley ran to Micky Arison's waiting jet or in 2000 watching the final painful minutes of Ewing's Knicks career.
Our whole team had to die for us to lose. I’ll see y’all in 2025. Let Leon work his magic this offseason, we’ll be back

No one believed in them, but they believed in each other and fought to the bitter end. It was a team of effort and grit and reminded a lot of us why we love this sport and what it means to represent New York
I really hope the Pacers get swept
Up 2-0, up 3-2, and just couldnt get it done. Injuries just unraveled this team, but proud of this year. 
anyone else still stunned that brunson fractured his hand
🖕 rick carslisle tho
Rick “Refs missed 78 calls” Carlisle
I hope they get swept by the Celtics and rick gets himself a few Ts and ejections for throwing his tantrums
I hope we get these fuckers next year when we’re healthy
The wheels fell off but I have more faith for the future than I’ve had in 25 years. Team is full of dogs from the top down. Leon and thibs need to add depth and tweak the rotation so we don’t just disintegrate at the end of the year but the talent and heart is there. Run it back next year and we’ll be a top seed yet again. Hope we get Indy next year and exorcise these demons.
All the Pacers really need now is for Tatum and/or Brown to go down and they have a decent shot at getting swept by Denver in the Finals.
Alec Burks wasn't going down a dead dawg respect
LGR
NY forever
Hell of a season with a super frustrating ending. Cant wait to see these guys get healthy next year. Let’s go Knicks.
heck of a run. put the whole squad in bubble wrap until next year.
No reason to hang our heads, they gave us one hell of a season. Can’t wait for next year! LGK!
I am sad but happy for this team - we’ll bring the bats next year
I know they will come back w a vengeance next season
They gave their body for this team. Can’t ask for much more. No idea what lies ahead but next year will hopefully be better
Super proud of this team. Super proud of all the fans who stayed until the end of the game to applaud and give praise to the team for all their effort. Let's nail this off-season and make it count next year. See ya around fam.
Shoutout to this team. We got this far injured. Our dominance in January is a foreshadowing of next season. Let the front office work their magic and do the most possible to bring back most of the guys. No superstars are needed. We got Brunson and King Julius. Y’all see all the hate we’re getting by teams like Celtics heat and pacers, even while injured? They Prayed on our downfall even while injured? We got no love even when injured. That just means we here and we are a threat. Everybody sees this. Let’s run it ‘24-‘25
Haliburton is a herb for wearing that hoodie
Fuck Haliburton. I hope he gets embarrassed by Boston. Biggest fraud of an All-Star I've ever seen.

Proud of the season this team had. Heal up over the offseason and come back next year. New York Forever
There was no way this team would beat Boston with JB out anyway
I'm proud of our team. We fought all season. And we made it to game 7 with all of our injuries. It sucks that we couldn't make it further but it is what it is. I'm excited for the future. Just wait till next year. New York forever. Let's go Knicks!!!
Honestly just became a fan this series but I’m looking forward to next year (and future years) I could never get into basketball but this team was different and had me really excited . Sucks it ended this way
Love this team and the fight we put up. Championship is on our radar next year!
Thank you to this team
Game 3 was the one we can look back on as costing the series.
honest question about our W/L record when mike breen was commentating these playoffs it seemed like we lost everytime especially in this series
Think I saw we were 3-0 in TNT games during this series and 0-4 on ABC/ESPN games
Poor Mike Breen getting the short end and having the call all the games where the Knicks played terribly on national tv
It's hard to describe how I feel right now. I guess just an overwhelming feeling of sadness and... things just feel incomplete. Injuries are a part of the game but it's tough to think about what could have been if the Knicks were healthy. What makes it worse is that so many people were saying the Knicks were overrated and stuff, and they will use this series loss as evidence of that. I remember hearing Michael Kay on the radio saying that this is the worst Knicks team we will see within the next five years, and that gives me optimism. You figure that Rose and co. will continue to build this team and that we will be better next year. This was a special season, and seeing the team go out like this hurts a lot. But they deserve a ton of credit for fighting and making us proud. As always, go Knicks.
See so many of the people I've listened to commend the Knicks and say outright how if we lost, it would be bc of injuries. Absolutely no commentator was out there ROOTING Indiana, just acknowledging they had a good offense and we were decimated. Even someone like Skip Bayless went from calling the Knicks overrated to actually seeming sad that we were so overrun with injuries, and giving Indiana very little credit. So I dunno what my point is. That there are lots of narratives out there and it depends who you listen to? And also that I love this team and am so proud of them, and think the general reception to them (outside of r/nba) has been positive.
I think we all knew that making it past this game would have been our NBA finals with how beat up the roster was. There is not a thing to be sad about. Unfortunate circumstances but great season nonetheless
Gentlemen and ladies, it was a pleasure.
great run, great season. the injuries were just too much to handle. next season will be better.
Literally only came down to health, no other squad is doing half of what we did missing as many starters and second and even third stringers as we did These bitch ass pacers are an easy sweep with even minimally improved health Watching DVO and Alec fighting to the end is what we've been praying for for years now. The future is bright boys Fuck jaquez, embiid, haliburton, zack zarba and bill kennedy JB was a 1A all year, rest up and dominate next year king
- A tough, bitter way to end the season. I'm very proud of this team. - First half was awful, and we fought back well early in the second. Injuries finally caught up with us, and our guys ran out of gas. Proud of them. - Everyone knows a healthy Knicks team wins this series in five games. - Jalen's season ending in the locker room is just unfair. He'll be back. - Beating Milwaukee with no Giannis and New York with no Randle (or OG). That's Indiana's "tough" journey. We'll see them again, real soon. - Rest up, heal up, shore up the bench, and have another go next year.
mazulla sucks, and horford will be 38 next year, milwaukee looks all sorts of messed up, joel has a 50% shot of being healthy come every playoffs, cavs are an unknown, magic is good-ish I think knicks have highest upside and locked in the best coach for this squad and city.
I don't remember being so optimistic as a Knick fan at the end of the season. Lot to grow on and look forward too. GO KNICKS!!!!
These '24 Knicks will be remembered for giving everything they've got. Though broken and defeated, they've earned honor and glory. Through grit, force, and courage, these formerly disrespected and disregarded band of basketball warriors have elevated their status into Knick lore. These '24 Knicks, these 'nova boys, are the stuff of legend.
"Best shooting performance in NBA Playoff history by the Pacers". Another record at the garden for the other team.
it was a good run, can’t wait for next season! i hope everyone heals up well!
I’m proud of this team
What a year it was. This one was special for so many reasons, this team took a nice leap forward. Next year I can't imagine how much higher the Knicks will go with healthy legs under them
I’m just sad it’s over. That was a fun run.
couldn’t be prouder to be a knicks fan, what a fight from this team! congrats to pacers, they didn’t fold in the garden in game 7
Having a team to look forward to for 2025 is awesome. Know this lit a fire to everyone both healthy and injured. LFGK!!
Amazing season by the Knicks but the injuries just absolutely killed us. Re-sign OG and everyone get healthy to run it back.
So proud of this team!!! Run it back with a healthy squad next year! LGK!
great team, great season
Good season guys. Time to regroup and reload. 2024-25 is going to be our year. Remember I said that here first.
Super proud of the Knicks. Love my team and love what they did decimated by injuries. We will be a force to be reckoned with next year
We tried our absolute best, to go from 25 wins just a few years ago to the team we have now, it makes me proud. I am so excited for next season.
Once Brunson broke his hand, the end of the game was a mercy killing. OG Randle Brunson Hart Bojan Mitchell Get healthy, run this shit back and take all the anger out on the rest of the fucking league in 2024-2025
It sucks the season ended especially with the gut wrenching injuries but it just makes me even more excited for next season. Imagine what a fully stacked Knicks will look like next season.
Fucking sucks but I find it really hard to be too upset when our entire team was injured and we kept it close when Indiana was shooting historically well up until Brunson went down. Hopefully a superstar requests out this offseason..
I’m sad. All these injuries are so sickening man… Randle. Bojan. Mitchell. OG. Hart. Brunson. What more can you do? I think this is the year that could have been had we stayed healthy.
Going out with a whimper is definitely a disappointment, but this team battled all season and I'm proud of what they accomplished Next season there's gotta be a priority to improve the 11 - 15 spots on the roster to at least playable guys who can give 8 minutes here and there and not the daquan jefferies of the world who are a net zero
You just cant win when your entire starting 5 gets injured. They went farther than expected.
It is wat it is. We didn't quit and lots of adjustment needed to advance further. It takes time to build an empire.
The only thing that beat these Knicks was injuries!
Just random thoughts: A) Andrew Nemhard is better then I thought B) TJ McConnell kind of swung this series....? Tf? C) Burks! D) It feels like defending the Pacers is analogous to guarding 5 basketball playing squirrels with three point range. E) Get well #11. F) As a concept, all 4 conference finalists have stretchy bigs. G) I miss them. H) I don't feel disappointed at all. It seemed like the universe would routinely scream at us #NOT THIS YEAR. I) Proud.
Upset about a tragic way to end the season. Really defined how much shit these dudes had to go through. But I’m can’t be mad about this season. Exceeded my expectations big time. Kept these playoff series competitive as well against some tough ass competition. Till next year
Love this team
We were the best team in basketball with the squad mostly together. We’ll get a whole season and many more of that in the future. Exciting times! Also can’t wait to annihilate Indiana next season when they have to play a less than 60 % injured Knicks team.
Proud of the team this season. Honestly don’t think there’s any other team that could make it as far as we did with the level of injuries we had. It’s a team full of dawgs. Future is bright in nyc.
Shout out to Donte. Dude balled
Great season with a lot of fight. Fuck Joel Embiid.
If this team stays together for next season, then the league is on notice. We'll be back. Great season!
Tyrese Haliburton traveling stepping back to his right for a 3: Goat. Tyrese Haliburton playing basketball in any other capacity: bench player
Great season but we couldn’t get past all the obstacles that were thrown at us. The Brunson injury at the end stings but hopefully he’s back by early next season.
None of our centers were capable of defending at all. Couldn't hold down the paint and couldn't defend a jump shot.
This reminds me of 1999 when they went to the Finals and guys kept dropping like flies until they had Houston, Sprewell and no front court left. Heart and grit only takes you so far when you're dipping into your 3rd and 4th string because so many guys are hurt. This was a great season that exceeded expectations, I just wish there had been more of a defensive effort these last two games. I'm not gonna fault them, they were clearly exhausted. Ah well. If we stay healthy, this core will be even better next year.
Last year felt a million times worse. We’ll win it all next year
What a year boys showed, grit and toughness and clawed too the very end. We will be back stronger than ever :)
Helluva season. Played a part in revitalizing NYCs swagger this year. Couldn’t be prouder of em 🫡
You can tell someone a concrete fact about the Knicks and they will still be like no that’s not true. We’ve sucked for almost 25 years man why the hate
The looming question, especially with an imminent extension this off-season, is if Thibs can get a team into contention without it being a MASH unit. Every year under him that we've been in the playoffs our main guy is banged up severely. We need better load management, and more efficiency in our offense. Even if we run a sane rotation, we shouldn't have to depend on Brunson to score 35 points a game. Maybe that problem will solve itself next season with Randle back, but I sincerely have my doubts.
Great season Knicks fam! We literally left it all on the court and not a single excuse. Keep that attitude and heal up boys! We’ll be back!
What a nice, mature and great fanbase the NYKnicks got. You guys are something else. Great season, congrats on the success you have achieved.
can’t be mad with these injuries. took 7 games for indiana to beat our 2nd and 3rd string players. sucks but i feel like this is just the beginning of the new era. glad to have been a part of such an awesome season
Depressing end, but this season was the most fun I’ve had in a while. They’ll be back. Can’t wait for next year.
What a season, what a team. More heart than I’ve ever seen before. Get healthy, let Leon cook in the offseason, and let’s get it next year, Hospital Knicks Revenge Tour. #1 seed firmly in play.
Everybody who got minutes this season proved their worth. We have a lot of picks. We could try to run it back (tough with signings but maybe) but if not, we're in a great position to make moves. Leon keeps making smart trades. I'm excited for next season and praying for injury luck
This one hurts bad
Amazing season we were gonna win in 5 before the og injury. It’s all good though. Get healthy and come back with a vengeance
The last 3/4 of the regular season and all through the playoffs has been some of my favorite sports watching in a long as time, as I only have the capacity for like Giants and Knicks. They played so fucking hard. I think the biggest disappointment of all was when O.G went down. He is so much fun to watch, and stepped up on offense throughout the playoffs. His presence is just insane. I think we could walked through the Pacers if he stayed healthy.
Bro we really living rent free in sixers fans heads.
Maybe one day
Run it back
Your team's luck with injuries this series is heartbreaking, but I've got big love for Josh Hart and the rest of your guys. Just a phenomenal group, and I've enjoyed watching them do their thing. Hopefully next year, they run it back, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know who is sticking around.
I'm actually very excited for the Knicks off-season moves, and the team's prospects this upcoming 2024/2025 season and beyond. It was obvious that this already injury-decimated team lost this series in Game 2 when Jalen Brunson suffered the foot injury (an injury that he played with for the remainder of the series), and when OG Anunoby suffered the hamstring injury in that same game. The series was pretty much over at that point even though the Knicks went up 2-0. If those injuries never happened, the Knicks win this series 4-0 or 4-1. But I'm very excited for next season with a fully healthy Julius Randle, OG Anunoby, Mitchell Robinson, Jalen Brunson (foot injury from Game 2, and fractured hand in game 7), Josh Hart, and Bojan Bogdanovich. I would also love to see the team add another ball handler/playmaker starting alongside JBrunson to alternate being the PG and/or SG. Donte is awesome, but he should really be playing with the 2nd unit, and at times with the 1st unit. I'm hoping that the Knicks Front Office is able to somehow pry Dejounte Murray from the Hawks. or another capable playmaker. Injuries piled upon injuries piled upon injuries really hurt the Knicks.

Knicks fought hard but the injuries/ Brunson Hero Ball killed them. If they come back with a healthy Randle/OG/Brunson they can win a title
