Amazing how this Knicks team keeps winning games without any talented players on the roster 🙄
LOL Nobody can give us credit where it is due. Yes this old ass Rubio was talented 10 years ago
Just give us some damn respect
For real, who says that?
“We were a better team”. Lol get fucked.
I’d say this too, if I just got my ass handed to me in 5.
Whatever, Rubio. Buh bye now
If only there were some kind of metric or competition to see who the better team really was…. 🤔
Hell yea the worst team in the nba dominated Cleveland all season. Idiot
Knicks in 4
Have fun in that dump of a city or wherever the hell you’re going for vacation.
Lol. No one asked u Rubio. The fuck outta here
Jeez. This was a 4-5 matchup. The Knicks had a slower start to the season, Cavs had a great start. But the Knicks figured them selves out and basically by the all star break / trade deadline made themselves into a top 8 team in the league. Whereas the Cavs slowly lost steam in the standings as the season went on
And oh yeah, we 8-2 on them for the season.
I failed in school but when I ask my mom if I’m smart she tells me I’m brighter than the sun 🌞
“Yeah, yeah you hear that guys?! We’re better than them woohoo yeah!! “
“Why Ricky, I forgot you were there. You may go now” .
Nah the Knicks are just better
That’s a funny thing to say after being noncompetitive and getting dominated from the jump in your own building in an elimination game
That Cleveland Copium
7-2 on the season. They got exposed and trying to talk themselves up. Maybe Cavs arent as talented as they thought and definitely got shown to be mentally weak. We snatched their hearts after 1 game in MSG.
Cavs have 1 great player and 2 good players.
And Allen was just there for cardio. No fucking bench, sorry head coach. No starting SF. Bum ass Cavs lmao
bruh didn’t even play and got the nerve to make statements about talent 😂
Wild to say this considering they were losing by double digits for the majority of every game. Not like they blew leads and Knicks happened to steal games. They got outplayed every step of the way.

This is more damning on them than anything, basically admitting you didn’t play hard enough lol
“They wanted it more than us 8 times outta 10” Id be embarrassed to say something like that 💀🤣
LOL shit your ass down and watch the 2nd round from your couch.
Rubio is average but there’s no way Osman plays anywhere but China next year I literally did not see him make a basket all series
Rubio has always talked down on the Knicks, even tho his career is wild underwhelming 😂😂
Dude, STFU. Y’all got dominated with arguably our best player (he’s really second let’s be honest) hurting or hurt.
We ARE the better team.
TRYING HARD, defense and rebounding are parts of the game.
We took you to the woodshed.
You are now whiny ass losers.
And we got the receipts. Suck it Cleveland.
I’m
The Cavs have talented players but I don’t know how anyone could look at that series and call them a better team. They really didn’t feel like a cohesive team at all save for game 2.
I’d like him to elaborate on which way they were a better team despite going 2-7 against us this year.
7 games to prove that, and they couldn’t win more than 1. Stop
This is the kid that claims everyone is hacking when he loses.
Bro, you went 2-7 against the Knicks this season. The Knicks are a better team in every facet.
Ricky boy, y’all won a single game, at home, all while our All-Star was playing hurt, and our should-be All-Star was just coming back from injury.
The one nice thing about Rubio, though, is he always reminds me of Linsanity.
Lol fuck you Rubio and while I’m at it, fuck that little priss Neto too
There are exceptions of course, but typically, football is the only sport you can really get away with saying “we were the better team, just had the worse day.” One-offs happen.
Having 4 ‘one-offs’ in 5 games means they’re not actually one-offs.
Easy to have that kind of confidence in your own locker room. Where was it on the court when you were getting your ass beat for 2 weeks?
Man stfu hater . You are washed
So what I’m hearing is basically Cavs are soft?
Poor attitude from a poor man’s Pistol Pete
Enjoy Retirement
7-2 vs the Cavs. The players and some fans are delusional 🤣
He rode the bench the whole series shush
Kinda crazy how you can lose 4 out 5 games to a team and still say you’re better than them. Where was that energy in games 1,3,4 and 5???
I was able to admit that the hawks were better than us in 2021 after we got eliminated, even though I didn’t believe it before the series started. But it’s okay, Ricky. You’ll get ‘em next year
Kyrie Irving is better than anyone on either the Knicks or the Cavs. Unless you are measuring heart and desire.
Like Rocket Raccoon, the Knicks wanted it more
You can’t claim you’re the better team if you get washed in 5 games even though you were the healthier team. Rubio sounds delusional.
Fuck outta here, Ricky. Witcho GOOFY ass.
