You've Got To Be Kidding Me, The Knicks Are Up 2-0?!

Listen, I need somebody — ANYBODY — to get me a drug test for myself, because clearly I must be high if this is real life.


The New York Knicks… yes, THOSE Knicks… are up 2-0 against the defending champion Boston Celtics.


And they did it by coming back from 20 points down. AGAIN. 


Are you serious right now?!


If you would’ve told me this was going to happen, I’d have told you to get your behind up out of my face with that nonsense.


The last time the Knicks won a damn title was in 1973!


Gerald Ford hadn’t even been elected president yet. And now you’re telling me they’re punking the Boston Celtics — the team I picked to win in 6 — and looking like they belong?!


I’m appalled. I’m stunned. I’m SHOOK. But you know what else? I’m IMPRESSED.


Because what the Knicks have done in Games 1 and 2 ain’t no fluke.


You go down 20+ points in back-to-back games, and you win them BOTH?? At TD Garden?

Against Tatum, Brown, and the deepest squad in the league??


That isn’t luck.


That’s grit.


That’s heart.


That’s Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, Karl Anthony-Towns, and those guys putting the whole damn city on their backs.


Meanwhile, the Celtics out here launching 3s like they're allergic to layups.


Boston has jacked up 100 3s in two games… made just 25 percent of them.


Let me say that again for the folks in the back: TWENTY-FIVE. PERCENT.


And here’s the kicker—48 of those 100 shots were WIDE OPEN. That’s not a defensive masterclass by the Knicks — that’s the Celtics forgetting how to hit a shot when it matters.


Tatum’s been quiet. Jaylen Brown looks shook in the 4th quarter. Derrick White’s shot disappeared like a magician’s rabbit. And Joe Mazzulla? I mean, damn, bruh… can we get a timeout??


Look, I love what I’m seeing from the Knicks. They’re playing bully ball. They’re getting rebounds, diving on the floor, and making every possession a street fight.


BUT LET ME BE VERY CLEAR.


THE JOB AIN’T DONE.


Because this is still the Knicks we’re talking about. If they blow THIS series — up 2-0 after two road wins — I don’t want to hear anything.


NOTHING.


Not from Spike Lee.


Not from Tracy Morgan.


Not from Ben Stiller or Denzel Washington.


Not from anybody.
