Good morning, sweet world, and welcome to the No Dunks Podcast on The Athletic Network. It's Thursday, May 8th, 2025. I'm Jay Skeets, here in the Classic Factory, and alongside me, as always, Tass Mellis. Podcast listeners, this is for you. Next to him, it's the bearded one, my top shot hot boy, Trey Kirby. Ayo! Ayo! And over yonder, making the magic happen, super producer JD. Hello. There he is. Here we are. Hello to the YouTubes. Hello to the podcast listeners. Lots to talk about once again. It was deja vu last night when it came to that first game. I saw a Zach Cram tweet. Putting the Mario Kart blue shell in the NBA playoffs has done wonders for the entertainment product. Good tweet, Zach. Yeah, the New York Knicks did it again. Down 20 in the third quarter of Game 1.
Down 20 in the third quarter of Game 2. Two huge comebacks. Two incredible road wins against the defending champs. You can't have the Bing without the bong, Tass. My God, the Knicks. Up 2-0 as they go back to Madison Square Garden. And it was very similar to Game 1. Yeah.
Yeah, it was. It was incredible how it was exactly the same. The new Celtics owners have to be saying, we want a refund. Our offer is withdrawn because they didn't expect this. Two games in a row to do that. Even though their season was full of games where they couldn't put it together for 48 minutes. And that is what's happening right now with the Boston Celtics where they just can't finish the job. I thought in the fourth quarter, Josh Hart was the meanest guy of them all. The guy who was putting his attitude. He kind of set the tone. Two big blocks. Josh Hart, the 6'4 guy. The guy who was helping out at the rim because Mitchell Robinson was out on the perimeter and he was very good. But I just went back and watched every single shot for the Boston Celtics. It's really hard to decipher what happened. Jalen Brown was over. The three-point shot was so short. He tried to take Jalen Brunson down low. Tried to draw a foul on Jalen Brunson, which is an odd choice, I would say. I thought... Derek White's threes were going to be going down. I thought those were happening.
He made a great pass then to Jason Tatum in the corner, whose three was short. Those threes were just so short. And I would say about Jason Tatum, he was the one guy trying to make it happen down the stretch.
He was the one guy to hit a bucket in the final eight or nine minutes of the game. Eight.
Yeah, and that's why you have to watch all eight of those minutes where they didn't score a basket from 840 to 18 seconds, how that happens to a basketball team. And Tatum did force it. He got the dunk with 18 seconds. And then the Celtics ran the exact same play. Exact same play. And the Knicks adapted, setting their guy back a little bit further in the paint where OGN and OB could help a little bit more. And then it resulted in Mikkel Bridge's block. So that was an interesting choice by Joe Mazula. Let's just run the same thing. And then that didn't work out. Repeating is hard, I guess. They don't have the same attitude for 48 minutes. We know that.
