🚨NY KNICKS GET BEST NEWS YET!

🚨NY KNICKS GET BEST NEWS YET!

Even in my wildest dreams, I didn’t think the New York Knicks would steal both games at the TD Garden, but they did. And they did it in the same exact fashion, storming back from down 20 to steal victory from the jaws of defeat. We got a lot to talk about on today’s show, but first, if you’re fired up to be up 20 over the Boston Celtics, the reigning NBA champions, hit that thumbs up icon and let’s dive into [Music] it. You’re watching Knicks Now by Chat Sports. I am your host, Marshall Green. Appreciate everybody for being here. I have really no words following that win. And I’m going to try to find the best words to say to put color into the picture that the New York Knicks have painted through two games as they are up 20 over the Boston Celtics. They win game two 91 to 90. And it was the same song in the same dance. They dug themselves in an early hole, but then the grittiness, the heart, the toughness, and the will to win shine through for this team. Before I get into my biggest takeaways, I think overall, I’ll just say this. This is the best thing you could have ever saw from the New York Knicks in the first two games. You could have not asked for a better outcome. I’m not going to say games because the Knicks can play a lot better than they have in the first two games. But the best news yet when it comes to the outcome and having an opportunity to be two games away from getting to the conference finals for the first time in 25 years with game three and game four being at Madison Square Garden. Let’s start with this though and I want everyone to understand that this series is not over. It’s not the first to one win or the first to two wins or the first to three wins. It is the first to four wins. And we’ve seen this Boston Celtics team a couple of years ago, maybe a couple of different players, but led by Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown where they went down three nothing to the Miami Heat and then they won three games in a row and they forced to game seven and the Miami Heat ended up winning that ball game. So, as happy as we are and as excited as we all should be and are, this series is not over. We’re in the Knicks. I’m not going to say game three is a must-win game, but it is a must-win to get at least one. Like, it is absolutely needed to win one of those games. Cuz if you go back to TD Garden tied up at two a pop with game five on their home floor, you’re dancing with the devil and you are walking a scary scary path. Find a way to win game three or four. And if you just want to flex your muscles, win both. And let’s sweep them. and let’s show everybody that we are the best team in the Eastern Conference. Like, job’s not finished. Shout out to the great Kobe Bryant. Rest in peace. This quote rings so true for me this morning. Jobs not finished. What are you smiling about? I don’t know. Job’s not finished. What’s there to be excited about? Still two more games to go. And two wins against the Boston Celtics are going to be even these two wins are going to be harder to get than what you got in the first two games. and he had to come back from 20 points in those ball games. Keep playing like there is no tomorrow. Do not play like your belly is full. Do not feel like you have already done enough cuz you haven’t cuz it’s the first of four. Not to two. Keep playing with that hunger, that spirit, and that will to do whatever it takes to win. Keep finding a way to find a way to win games. Like I do want to make this clear as well. This team is special, ladies and gentlemen. There is a feeling, an aura, just a overall juice around this team that feels different. Enjoy it, Knicks fans. There’s a lot of people that watch this channel that have never seen the Knicks have playoff success. They haven’t been to the Eastern Conference Finals since 2000, and I know there are thousands of people that are 24 years and younger that watch this channel and have never seen it. 30-year-olds like myself, I don’t really remember them going to the NBA finals in 99 or the conference finals in 2000s. Enjoy it. No team in NBA history, regular season or playoffs, have won back-to- back games on the road where they had to come back from 20 plus points in the second half. It’s never been done. Appreciate this. Enjoy it. Things like this don’t happen. Especially for New York teams. This team is special. Not going to say it’s a team of destiny, but I’m awfully close to saying it. Let’s show some love to the players. Mitchell Robinson. Give me some 23s in the chat. I was someone that wanted the Knicks to trade Mitchell Robinson at the deadline. I’ve always been a little bit pessimistic with Mitchell Robinson because he is a limited offensive player. He can’t make free throws. He is someone that has not been able to really progress through his game in the way that we want him to, but he’s the longest tenure Nick. He’s been a part of this organization longer than anybody else on this roster, and he deserves all the flowers he can possibly get for the performance he put forth in game two. Like, we’re going to talk about the play on Tatum. We’re going to talk about the steal on Al Horford and the overall just impact he brought to this team when they put together 13 straight stops to erase a 20point game. And I’m not the biggest fan of plus minus stats, but it’s hard to ignore this one. The highest plus minus in round two of the NBA playoffs. Number one in the league is Shay Gilis Alexander. When he is on the floor, his team is outscoring the opponent by 35 points. Mitchell Robinson off the bench when he is on the floor. The Knicks are outscoring the Celtics by 32 points. Joe Missoula, Missouo, Missoula, I don’t care. Uh he was scared to see Mitchell Robinson out there. So much so he was willing to foul their team into the bonus to get Mitchell Robinson off the floor because the impact that he is having is evident. They cannot score when he is on the floor. They cannot attack the basket. And Mitch has showed everybody that he’s still got the ability to switch on the wings and be able to hang on the perimeter. Like this was in my opinion the play of the game. Rips the ball from Al Horford, beats him to the ground to steal it. The Knicks get out in transition and this felt like it was just the play that really changed the game as well as a hundred other plays which we’ll talk about. But this one, I just thought represented what the New York Knicks and Mitchell Robinson is all about. Finding a way, doing whatever it takes. Major shout out to Mitch. And then what about on the last play of the game? They set a screen on Robinson. He fights under. He switches on to Tatum. Stays in front of him on the perimeter. Forces him to go left. forces him to score or attempt to score into the teeth of the defense with OG and an Obi right there. And Male Bridges on his back and Male Bridges did what he always does, which is make gamewinning plays on defense. You do not win this game without Mitchell Robinson. You’re not up 20 without Mitchell Robinson. Major salute to you, my man. You deserve all the credit in the world. Injuries have tried to derail your career time and time again, and you fought back. You kept with it. and now you’re making plays that could potentially put the Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals. Make sure you are subscribed to the channel. We’re going to be live for game three, game four, and if any other games are necessary, major shout out to over the old all everyone over 134,000 people tuned into our live stream for game two. I’m expecting a bigger crowd for game three and I don’t want you to miss it. number one place on YouTube to watch a Knicks game with hundreds of thousands of diehard Knicks fans. So, subscribe, turn those notifications on, and thank you to everybody for helping us get to 66,000 subscribers. Male effing Bridges. A lot of people say, “Marshall, you are way too up and down. You are a hypocrite when it comes to male Bridges.” I I just kind of live by this. play good, talk good, play bad, talk bad. And I may be a hypocrite, but man, his play is up and down. And I’ve never really seen anything like this. At one point during that game, he was 0 for 10 or whatever it was, and he was three of 21 through the series, but then in the fourth quarter, he found a way to just get it going when the Knicks needed it most. They were able to trim the lead down to 12. And then Male Bridges rattles off 14 points in the fourth, hitting step back jumper after step back jumper after tough tough bucket after tough bucket. Six clutch buckets that kept the Knicks alive and gave them the belief that they could win this game. Zero points in the first three quarters. Didn’t make a shot obviously, but 14 big ones in the fourth quarter. And who you going to call when you need a stop? We need a game-changing steal, a game-winning se steal, a game sealing block. It’s Male Bridges. He did it in game one against Jaylen Brown and then Jason Tatum thought he was going to win the game and uh yeah, he didn’t. Stopped again by Mitchell uh by Male Bridges with Mitchell Robinson pushing him to the left. Some awesome stuff here from Tommy Beer. Probably the best account on Twitter for the Knicks. Show him some love. Give him a follow. Shout out to Tommy. Super awesome guy. Male Bridges has the best differential percentage among all qualified wings in the 2025 playoffs. opponents are shooting just 38 of 104 against Bridges, which is more than 10 10% below their average. In fact, there are only four non-enters with a differential percentage of minus 1.5% or greater this postseason. Three of those four Knicks are Bridges, OG, and Hart. What male Bridges is actually doing is is unbelievable. Um, man, it’s Has it been frustrating this year for him and for fans? Absolutely. Has it been up and has it been down? Absolutely. But man, if you keep winning games on the defensive side of the ball, um, you’re going to have a lot more fans than you ever thought you did. Major shout out to 25 and major shout out to OG and an Obi as well. These two wings are changing the way the Knicks play basketball. OG didn’t have it on offense. I think he only scored five points in game two. But the Celtics are now shooting 7 of 34. 20.5% the first two games of Nick Celtics went defended by OG and an Obi. A lot of people said, “Why are we paying OG and an Obi $200 million? It’s to stop Jaylen Brown and to stop Jason Tatum.” And that is what the New York Knicks are having OG and Anobi do. Defense always will win championships. And when the Knicks were trailing 84 to68 with under nine minutes left in the game, the Knicks secured 13 consecutive defensive stops. 13 possessions in a row. Boston did not score. A lot of talk about clutch buckets for Bridges and clutch buckets from Brunson and we’ll talk about Captain, but you don’t win that game unless you string together 13 straight stops. Like this is why you make these moves. This is why you give up five picks for Male Bridges. This is why you give up $200 million. There’s an RJ Bar and Emanuel Quickley to go get OG and an Obi. These guys are special and they’re playing at an unreal level and I hope everybody’s appreciating what they’re seeing. Got to talk a little bit more about a couple more players. Josh Hart, Duce, McBride, Jaylen Brunson. But first, make sure you’re hooked up with our Knicks now t-shirts. If you’re a real one and you bleed orange and blue, go to chatsports.comrealnicks. That’s chatsports.com/realicks. We’ve got the blue one, we’ve got the black one. Get your shirts today so you can have them for the remainder of the postseason run. That link will be clickable down in the comments and description of today’s show. The Knicks were once again staring at a 20point deficit late in the third quarter later than what it was in game one. And then Josh Hart hit a corner three and then Josh Hart hit a wing three and then Deuce McBride drove coast to coast and threw it down. And then Deuce McBride hit a three. And just when you thought the Knicks were out of it, Josh Hart and Duce McBride said, “Hold on, we’re going to find a way to get it done.” These two guys deserve a lot of credit for this Knicks comeback. Josh Hart was playing like his hair was on fire like he always does. And when the Knicks needed him most, he was able to show up and show out. Deuce McBride coast to coach drive, throwing it down, no one stopping the ball, and then Deuce hits a left wing three. Like this game was dead. It was over. And you get six clutch points from Hart. You get five clutch points from Deuce McBride. And you started to see the gears starting to run and move. And the juice for the Knicks continuing to pick up. 23 points, six rebounds, three assists. I think he had five rebounds in the fourth quarter. Many of them being offensive. And I go back to what Josh Hart told Mitchell Robinson a couple of playoffs ago. I get rebounds that break people. And uh Josh Hart, he broke the Boston Celtics three of six from three. Like they dared him to shoot. They wished he’d shoot and he did. And he made three big ones and he gave the Knicks a win. And as always, game takeaway number five. Uh I said it in the preview video. I said it after game one. I said it before game two. And I’m going to continue to say it. Just keep it close. like just keep it close and let Jaylen Brunson do what Jaylen Brunson does which is win games in the clutch for his team better than anybody else. Tommy Beer again most clutch points this postseason. Jaylen Brunson 41. The next closest Carl Anthony Towns with 21. Then Tyrese Hallebertton in 18 and Aaron Gordon at 16. Aaron Gordon and Tyrese Hallebertton have essentially won their teams multiple games here in the playoffs. 18 plus 16 is 34. They’re still seven points less when it comes to clutch scoring than Jaylen Brunson. Also, the Boston Celtics haven’t scored as many points in the clutch as a team as a team that Jaylen Brunson has. 14 points for Brunson through two games in the clutch. Was he at his best? No. Did he struggle? Absolutely. did he couldn’t find a way, couldn’t crack the code. It was arguably one of his worst playoff games as a Knick prior to the fourth quarter. When the game’s on the line, he’s always going to be there. Like, we have waited and prayed and hoped and wished for a player like this for a long, long, long time. I don’t want people to take for granted what Jaylen Brunson is doing. He has saved New York Knicks basketball. Um, appreciate 11, man. He is a special person, a special player, and he put New York City basketball back on the map. As proud as I am of him for what he does in the clutch, which I just expect at this point because that’s who he is, the way he has competed his tail off on defense, has given the Knicks an opportunity to win these games. Jaylen Brown and Jason Tatum have tried to matchup hunt Jaylen Brunson time and time and time and time again and it hasn’t worked for him. Brown and Tatum are shooting a combined eight of 23. That’s less than 35% from the floor when guarded by Jaylen Brunson through the first two games of this series. Like Jaylen Brunson is a good team defender. Jaylen Brunson is a high IQ player. want to take charges, but everyone always talks about, man, you’re never going to be able to win because you can’t defend. Always guarding the two guys that were the best players in the NBA finals last year. Salute Jaylen Bro. I I I still can’t believe it. I can’t believe the Knicks won that game. I can’t believe the Knicks won game one. I can’t believe we’re up 2. Anyone that said that they thought the Knicks were going to be up 20, they’re a liar or they’re just lying and capping for for clicks. Uh, no one thought this. Absolutely nobody. And they proved us all wrong. And I hope they still prove us wrong. Last thing, Tom Tibido, man, you’re coaching your tail off. You deserve a lot of credit. I have been loud about Tom Tibido not being the right guy for this job and not being the coach that can get this team to its ceiling. Still worry a little bit about on the offense. 91 points isn’t going to consistently win you games against the Boston Celtics, but holy if this team can keep holding them to 90 points, they’re going to be going places they haven’t been in a long, long time. Tibs, salute to you. You got these boys ready. They’re not quitting. and you’re coaching your tail off. You’re pulling all the right strings. Shout out to you. 20 job’s not finished. Go win game three and let’s just get it over in game four. Make sure you are following me on social media. I’m on Twitter, Marshall Green_. I’m on Instagram, Marshall Green_. Appreciate everybody for being here. We’ll be live back on the channel on Saturday, an hour before tip off. So, subscribe, turn those notifications on, and let’s go Knicks.
