Its also worth noting.. knicks fans are going to travel to OKC/SAS. Maybe not to the level of Philly or Cleveland, but they will if they make it to the finals. I bet those games will have a good contingency of Knicks fans. On the other end... Knicks games will be 99.91% Knicks fans, sans for some rich oil money guys who come to town.

Hate on New York all you want, but we have the money to go anywhere we want in droves.

Sorry they beat the 6 and 7 and 4 seed in a weak east. Im not impressed. At all.

The West is of course a much better conference and it has been for like 20 years.

But if youre not impressed by what the Knicks are doinf right now, I don't know what to tell you. 10 wins in a row. Its some of the best basketball we've seen in a while.

Knicks dominating. We will see how they do when they move up to the varsity game k NBA finals. No more jv teams.

They are on fire right now. I don’t know if they can beat OKC or even SA, but they are playing the best ball right now overall probably. I hope they make it a good series regardless. Love to see KAT win one. He’s taken a lot of undeserved heat in his career IMO and he’s been on a lot of winning teams.

I firmly believe they beat the Spurs at this point. OKC? Not so much. But thats also because OKC has just an insane amount of talent.. in 3 years this OKC team is gonna blow past the salary cap by about $300mil lol.

I don’t think Presti cares, he will trade the max deals he doesn’t need and get 100 picks to do it again. Dude is a monster GM and the league doesn’t know how to handle him. He fleeces every front office out there.

I read a story about Ed Sullivan recently and they talked about his greatest gift was spotting early what the public would love.

Presti is like that as a GM. He has a gift for seeing greatness before it’s great. And how they fit together.

Like the Bald Eagle, Caruso. Of course he was a known quantity when they got him. But he knew he was a great fit. Like someone else said, all championship caliber teams need a guy like that.

Donte is like that. How much better would the Knicks be if they could have kept him?

Presti is probably trying to figure out how to get him.

It wasn’t popular for Krause to say many years ago that organizations win titles.

But he was correct.

Yeah, I believe Presti is also a master of getting the maximum value for every player he trades for or away. Best GM in sports by far.
