Last night was the second time

in this postseason that I had left the Knicks for dead, with Game 1 in Cleveland being the other. Never again man. Never again. This group has less quit in it than just about any other team I've ever seen. They've achieved a negative level of quit.

Chuck said after the game that you don't come back from down 29 without the other team helping you, and that's certainly true. The Spurs missed some bunnies, missed some free throws, and made some really stupid plays. At the same time, coming back from down 29 is coming back from down 29. That's some cajones out there.

As a Knicks fan

I am still waiting for a few of those games from the 13-0 run that got them here.

How many teams have trailed with 2 minutes to go in an NBA Finals in every game and still won the title?

If Fox doesn't make that runner in the lane on Monday, the Knicks probably snatch that win too.

I am very confused on what Mike Brown does in the first quarter that the team continues to come out flat.

Fellow Knicks fan. I'm happiest for

Josh Hart. The heart of the current NYK team would not have deserve the Charles Smith treatment if they had lost that game.

For those who don't know. Josh Hart is beloved & respected in NY because of effort and doing all the little things that lead to NY wins.

Oh man, Hart is the anti-Smith

In every possible way. Smith played like he was half the size he was, Hart plays like he's twice the size he is. I love him. And as a big John Starks guy - I know the Chicago people here will hate me for it but he was my favorite on the 90's teams - I secretly love that Hart (unintentionally, I'm quite sure) shares his number.

Speaking of my man, of course everyone remembers his 2-for-19 in Game 7 in 1994. What so many forget is that he went nuclear in Game 6 and very nearly won the Knicks the title that night - took a buzzer-beater three that Hakeem ran out and got a fingernail on, and it rimmed out. Saw someone on Twitter post the final play with the caption "KAT fingertip >>>>>>> Hakeem fingertip" and I couldn't help but smile. Long time coming but maybe this is really it. Maybe.

No bigger 90s Bulls fan on this board than me. And I

looooooooooooooved Starks. I would have loved the Bulls adding him as a sixth man.
