I can't disagree with you about the Halliburton choke. I'm still surprised that he didn't get more flack for it given that it wasn't even the game winner that he thought it was.

I wouldn't say that about the rest of the team though. Siakam seems like a class act kind of player. I find it hard to root against him

I agree with you about Siakam. He's the kind of guy who should really be playing for the Knicks.

Knicks would love to have him!

I’m guessing it will take seven games but I’m not picking the team.

Eight is out of the question.

Unfortunately for NY, he’s going to be giving them their medicine for many years to come.

It's so embarrassing. The Knicks lose to the Pacers, and then Dolan panics, sh*ts the bed and fires the coach. You can't make this stuff up.

The Pacers are also getting FANTASTIC work from former Knick Obi Toppin…

I could be totally wrong but I’m guessing Toppin gets more minutes and is more impactful than Turner tonight. I like Turner but OKC doesn’t seem to be his best matchup.

Well, order has been restored in the universe. Pacers made a helluva run. Respect.

I thought Haliburton might have a Willis Reed moment. But, alas, karma came back to bite him.

My post on Toppin did not age well. Hopefully Halliburton recovers. Ridiculous run by the Pacers. Congrats to the Thunder. Now go Jazz….

Here’s a history lesson — Reggie Miller’s choke sign was before the game was over, then he finished the deal. Tyrese did the same. If anything, that deserves more respect. Both own New York. That lopsided rivalry isn’t about class — it’s about kicking your ass. And “choreographed”?? He saved it for the perfect moment, with #31 courtside — now it is legend.
