99.7% win probability. To blow that they had to allow circus 3 after circus 3, missed FT’s, turnovers late, and a ridiculously lucky buzzer beater that bounced 5 feet in the air and went in. You have to severely F up to lose a game like that and that’s what the Knicks just did. I feel sick!

They’ve won in spite of Thibs. Can he ask Rick for his suit guy he looks like Schlemiel. Refs were brutal tonight. Maybe a loss like this gets rid of the bing bong crew. As far as being sick after a game I put this up there with 02 Wildcard game Giants-Niners.
I don’t even know if there’s a sports game I’ve watched in my life that left me more sick than this one. It might be #1 on my list of worst sports losses. I guess the rest of the series will determine if it stays there
its not just the 14 point lead w actually scored 6 points in that span too
they put up 20 on us
I really have a hard time watching the NBA. They permit so many fouls to go uncalled that the ones they do call appear to be completely random. It's no wonder so many challenges get reversed. Then there are so many intentional elbows to the face, slaps to the face, hooks, push offs, throw downs. Even great passes to wide open cutters comes after some brutal contact and pushoffs.
On the other hand having guys on your roster who were there 2 years ago definitely a plus. On the other hand seeing courtside fans sitting in seats that someone paid a few grand for kind of ridicules the notion of die hard fans going wild. On the other hand, we have that too.

Worst loss I have ever seen. This is clearly a test of whatever resilience this team has, and it will take all of it if they are to win. Thibs really needs to work the refs better on the physicality that Brunson is getting from the opposing defenders - he was mugged all night.

I’m for building a new MSG now. I don’t know if Westies used the old Penn Station as a burial ground but that place is cursed. Between our futility, the Knicks and Rangers combined 3 titles since it opened in 1967. In person I can say besides this season for us, the clincher vs Montreal in 14 for the Rangers. Get rid of the place, we hanging our hat on the circus 
and some concerts. The place is a house horrors. They should not have tore down old Yankee stadium, MSG get the dynamite.
