I think what hurts most for us Knicks fans is not that our expectations were high but that the organization has finally cemented that we’re one of those upswing teams that are just a piece or two away. And as that evolution has taken shape we’ve found ourselves in a once in a generation type situation where as a lower seed we would only have to play 1 of the top 3 seeds enroute to a potential Finals appearance.

Of the remaining teams we had left in front of us, with Milwaukee gone, we were:

2-2 vs. Philly
3-1 vs. Miami
3-1 vs. Boston

Just feels like we’ve missed an opportunity that’s been completely out of reach for us for two decades now. We haven’t even really been in contention like most other teams have at some point or another. We just needed the Knicks to compete and make the other teams earn their W.

Ehh regular season records hardly matter in the postseason imo

But I do agree you did fumble an opportunity to get to the Conf finals and I mean depending on team you play a real chance to make the finals

I can see how that would sting

But the good thing is there is foundation in place for you guys to make a somewhat unlikely run to the conf finals next season as well

It’s not a terrible place to be but I can’t say anything to stop the pain of the hard fought gentlemen’s sweep
