You guys know that feeling of what it's like when it's a communal β
event and everybody feels the terror for two and a half quarters you know and then feels the joy of the comeback together and and everybody ends up feeling the same thing that's what my brother kept turning to me and say like everybody's feeling the same thing and that meant the celebs it meant the employees it meant the that you know the season ticket holders and it i theoretically meant the people who bought their one-offs for 30 grand a pop or whatever but you know
It was a very cool communal sports event, and there's a lot to get into from it.
Yeah, I mean, the game stuff, they blew it, obviously, but the Knicks went back and took it.
But I've never seen anything like that, and it's never happened before.
An NBA team scores 76 or more in the first half.
and scores 30 or less in the second half.
That has never happened before in any game, regular season or playoffs.
So you've never seen a team that hot and then that cold.
So this is fascinating to hear from you guys, because obviously I saw some on postgame.
We went back home and watched the fourth quarter on TV, back to my brother's house, and watched postgame.
But seeing Chuck putting it on the Spurs, if we were doing impressive by the Knicks or inept by the Spurs, are you guys in the inept by the Spurs more?
Yeah, it's crazy because I'll tell you in the moment it didn't register like that.
And I know that it's true, but in the moment it registered like the crowd revved the Knicks into a frenzy that overwhelmed the young opposition.
So that is them falling apart.
But it's like it felt like New York was inevitable.
It just feels absurd to be ripping the Spurs when they're such a brilliant and great young team to get here.
And it just felt inevitable.
It felt so much like the Bears-Packers at Soldier Field.
In those final minutes, it was like, oh my God, I think this is going to rise up and happen.
