    I worry that the Knicks might not have the playoff experience to do what is necessary here but their coach certainly does. Atlanta on the other hand? Nice job on making it this far but I doubt they are ready for this. Still might be a fun series.

    I feel like Rose is going to have that one game that gets them over the top in 6

    Knicks will go as far as Julius Randle takes them. Haven't followed the Hawks much.

    Imagine finally making it to the playoffs only to get knocked out by another perennial lottery team

    Knick should be fine, but i bet it takes them 7 games. The hawks are good.

    Knicks looking like a 10th seeded play-in team instead of a team that has HCA for the first round.

    Rockets Legend assistant coach: Tibs.

    Capela not wearing that t-shirt under his jersey no more.

    Thought maybe Knick's hard nose defense would translate to playoffs, but so far, high scoring game both sides.

    New York loves the Knicks even if they hate the owner. ;)

    You can't go one game without a commentator slandering the Rockets.
