They're down to 19 percent on that platform to come out of the East behind now.

the Boston Celtics and the Detroit Pistons.

So that's what we're talking about.

We're talking about the team that was clearly the favorite in Vegas celebrating on that platform, the NBA Cup.

Four weeks later, they're the third ranked team in the Eastern Conference, according to a lot of betters to come out of the East.

That's a pretty remarkable four week slide, three week slide, whatever, since Marty Supreme came out, if you want to say it that way.

Oh, yeah, he's in that, isn't he?

Yeah, I mean, I could have done Stiller there, but I feel like Chalamet had the movie come out around that time.

But no jokes, the Knicks are still one of the more, if not the most talented team in the Eastern Conference.

But dude, look at their defense, look at their effort, look at what the old heads at the desk said about them last night.

do they give a shit enough to do what they need to do on defense to win the Eastern conference?

Yeah, if they make a move, they need a second scorer and a shooter.

Somebody in a defensive playoff series where a team just really points all their weapons at this pick and roll between Cade and Duren and slows it down.

Who's the ball flying to there?

And who's going to make that play?

Because as much as I like Tobias Harris or Duncan Robinson, I just don't think...

those guys are going to make huge plays and score like 26 in game five or something like that.

So I could see them shopping around to try to get one of these players, maybe a Jeremy Grant or an MPJ even.

Former Piston Jeremy.

That's right.
