And it's just the inconsistency of that is maddening.

And the fear I would have as a fan would be that that horrible foul call happens in the final minute of a big playoff game.

And it's just, especially if they're calling it a different way for 47 minutes, that stuff drives me nuts.

And I know, again, big body, he's going to...

I guess, create some contact.

But you've got to have some level of consistency.

And I think if you get that, I really do believe the Knicks will be standing there at the top of the Eastern Conference when the playoffs head into the NBA Finals.

I feel like, and I don't really, you know, our memories with all the stuff we're paying attention to, whether it's sports or otherwise, I don't remember complaining a lot about the officiating last year in the playoffs.

And I remember actually having at least a conversation about with the Pistons that that series was very, very physical and the officials were sort of allowing them to play.

So hopefully that is the case.

But that's a good example right there.

So you're going to play a Detroit team that's going to come muck it up, which we know.

They are going to hit you in the face.

They're going to try and essentially just...

I feel like Orlando is a team like that, too, if the Knicks got them in the first round.

Probably, but I still think Detroit might be the most physical.

Yeah, absolutely, yeah.

If you're going to let them play, then you've got to let them play for 48 minutes.

And if you're going to swallow the whistle in the first quarter, you've got to swallow the whistle in the fourth quarter.

And that's, I think, as a basketball fan, what, again, I see it at the college level all the time, where a game is officiated differently first half to second half, and it shouldn't be.
