    Robinson had that ankle operated on, and missed part of the season. He also only played 12 minutes Monday. This isn't on Thibodeau. The Knicks don't show any signs of fatigue, maybe they are use to playing full on. They didn't break down against the Sixers.

    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

    Sadly, I can't argue that.

    Sadly they gave Murray a slap on the wrist fine instead of a suspension. That behavior is beyond acceptable. At his salary he got what amounts to $50 fine to most people.

    It looks like Robinson is blaming Embid for his injury on that dirty foul.

    I was just thinkin', was that the case? You edited the Embid part out earlier but I didn't know that was the play, my DVR is full of the games I can't stay up all night for. That was dirty by Embid, he wrenched his leg from the ground, damn

    Also the play where Embid raked Brunson's face I thought was no play on the ball. Those two plays alone have kinda changed the way I see Embid.
    Beefing up the old home security, huh?
    You bet yer ass.

    The first reports were it was due to his earlier surgery. So I edited it. Then I saw Robinson tweeted that he will have revenge. So he blames Embid.

    With all the injuries to the Knicks, I wonder if Brunson't Dad can still play. They would beat LeBron and Broni by a couple of years as the first Father Son team.

    I hope the Knicks kick the Pacers @$$ tonight. I want to see Boston vs NY in the ECF.
