2026 NBA Playoffs East Finals: #3 New York Knicks vs #4 Cleveland Cavaliers (NYK wins 4-0 🧹)

[Freeman]

Yeah I understood logic behind the move but it was always a gamble and the Cavs lost big time because now you either have to commit to Harden or you basically traded away Garland for nothing

Should've just rode it out and reevaluated things in the offseason instead of making an in-season panic move

Thats what Mitchell wanted apparently. Thats why you can't involve players in major roster decisions. Outside of a bronny, thanasis, mogbo situation you politely tell the player to shut up and dribble.

I agree. That said, if the Knicks destroy the entire Eastern Conference like they've done and then get destroyed by whoever comes out of the West, the league is going to have to do something. You can't have one conference that much stronger than the other.

He might as well have said, "please fire me."

This is like saying “we won more quarters”

 

[AZTG]

I'm cool with them winning 4 out of 4 long as we actually win 4 out of 4

Do the cavs get swept?

I kinda want the Cavs to win so buddy gets a semblance of hope back before its inevitably snatched away. Its almost like a humiliation ritual with him and his team every year

I gotta admit that I was wrong about Mike Brown not being better than Thibs.

Mike Brown proved to be more flexible and not afraid to switch up the game plan or rotations if stuff isn’t working. Thibs was too married to his approach or style to a fault.

I feel you cause of how y'all go back and forth for years.

That said, you got to be allowed to be proud of your team making the conference finals no matter how it ends

It took a while. Might have been that it needed time or it might have been players didn't fully buy in until down 2-1 in the first round.

That said, Mike Brown been coaching his ass off since. The Knicks have been doing something different every game and the Cavs can't keep up

Shoutout to Harden
