[NBA_NewYork] “That shot was disrespectful. I’m standing on that. I’d a did it again.” –– Knicks Elfrid Payton on knocking Jae Crowder into the seats. Crowder had stolen an inbound & dribbled out to shoot a 3 despite his Grizzlies being up 18 with 48 seconds left. On this day in 2020.

Picture was cold 🤣 Payton was starting on business 🔥
My only “you go boy” moment I had with this guy, otherwise was not a fan at all
Crazy how we haven’t seen fights break out recently with how physical we play. Who do you think can stand up for the guys if ever? Got my money on iHart lol

I always thought Jae Crowder was a front-running bitch, and this play is evidence of that. Good for EP.
Personally, I say you play the *whole* 48 minutes or suffer the consequences.
It’s crazy how much better our current squad is than that one. FO is absolutely killing it.
Nah this ain’t it!
I never disliked Payton, it wasn’t his fault he wasn’t good enough. The only thing I never understood is it got to a point where he started and played literally 5 minutes in the playoffs. That just never made any sense
We didn’t realize it then but this was the beginning of Thibs culture. You’re not going to disrespect the Knicks any longer! I also love that Julius and Mitch are right in the middle of it.
Edit: I’m an idiot, this was the year before Thibs.
And he’s right. If he stole the ball and dribbled it out, okay. But the idiot went straight for a 3, what a clown.
Go head Elfrid 😤
I expect downvotes but EP should be in the league.
