Apparently, Howard, I mean, you were in the building.

All it took was, you know, a curious case of the Knicks catting off in the final minute.

And...

My question to you is, do the Knicks have the mental focus to actually win a title?

Because I feel like they're the most talented team.

They have the most experience in this series.

And in theory, they should make light work off of an inexperienced team like Atlanta, who is talented, but yet don't seem to have the firepower, at least on paper, to fuck with the Knicks.

But here we are.

Howard.

Howard.

Mental fortitude of the Knicks, is it lacking?

And how can it be recovered?

Roger, I know all 1-1 series aren't created equal, but what do you see going into this as the series shakes back to Atlanta or shifts to Atlanta?

Who has the edge here?

I know who has the edge on paper, but who has the edge in the series so far?

I think one of the things that if I,

just looking at the Hawks, I've seen the Hawks in person a couple of times this season.

One of the things that they do is they go extremely small.

And when they do go small, that does put them at an advantage against a team like the Knicks, where they got to have Cat on the floor.

Cat isn't great in pick and roll, and they can just attack, attack, attack, attack.
