If they go 3-0 it's over
So the series was over before it started, but now that we're up 2-0 it's not over ππ
The new york just playing too aggressive for Boston
πNew York?
Knicks playing both styles old and new
Fear the Knicks suckas itβs NO JOKE keep dissing the Knicks you all are demonstrating how ridiculous your opinions are
And thatβs good
Saying you go to church pay your tithes and pray every day and then invoking one of the seven deadly sins is crazy!
Both tops seed in the east are down 0-2. For me this is glaring, we neext to redistribute the east and west. I would take a 6th seed in the west over a top seed in the west, and that is a problem
When the lakers lost, perk blamed the coach. When other teams lose, KP blames the players.
SA worth every penny of that contract
STEPHEN A. MUST BE STOPPED. MICHAEL MAGIC LACE EM UP!!!!!!!
LMFAOOOOO THIS DUDE STEPHEN A EATING AN ORANGE
Great episode guys! πππ
Stephen A is such an op for the Knicks lol I know they donβt claim him at all.
Man, the modern NBA is wack!
It's over? Wow, dats bold perk.
Tatum and Brown are atrocious in the clutch. Joe can't be so stubborn to not call a timeout and draw up a play…. ridiculous.
That background music go hard af lol
Now i gotta get greedy…im rolling you a fool bro
Celtics in 6.
Stephen A is so fake he had 0 belief in the Knicks.
LOL, dopey Perk said Brunson shot 5/19 but he meant to say Tatum
it would be a knick thing too do and lose at home, but i pray we sweep
Now I got to be greedy!!πππ Yes Stephen A, I know how you feel…
This has been hands down one of the best weeks in first take history. Thank you espn π πππ
Perk face in the beginning cuz he know SAS is full of it π
I want knicks win the championship so bad just to see his reaction
Hope im wrong but i feel like the knicks are gonna get smacked game 3
Celts are soft as FCK PERIOD
Perk is absolutely right
Knicks are not beating the pacers..This is all hype I get it knick fans..It's a first …enjoy it..This was a great season for them..But it ain't Happening this year.
It's cruel to let us have a little bit of other hosts before being forced to go right back to the nightmare
After last year everybody talked about how historically good this celtics team was but this year its being confirmed that their path to the finals last year was an absolute joke. The knicks are the first real challenge theyβve bad between last year and this yearβs playoffs and theyβre folding under pressure and getting exposed. All that overhype the celtics got after last year should be dead now
We're down 0-2…. Knicks gotta do better so we can tie the series… Jobs not finish
SAS: what did I do last week.
you said weβd lose in 5 you fraud
Its going to be straight pandemonium at MSG on Saturday.
