    Series dont start til road team wins a game. Aint nobody sweating the knicks. 6ers got this
    And even if down 0-2, there still lots of work to be done for the knicks because now they're the road team

    Real Knick fans respect Big Perk over Stephen A. Perk been riding with the Knicks all season.

    If Julius Randle was healthy I would have the Knicks winning the East, their combo of players works perfect and OG may have been the best trade of the season, outside of the Harden trade
