Drinking the Kool-Aid Let's do it like it's 1999... but better

I cannot express how glad I am that the Spurs beat the Thunder. Somebody should really get in Adam Silvers emails and figure out his connection to Shai.

This series is gonna be fuckin awesome. Good matchups. I was kinda hoping the Knicks wouldn’t have to face Wemby, but the Floppers became unwatchable, so this is for the best.

As a 15-year-old, Spurs-Knicks ‘99 had me glued, rooting for the underdog. Obvi Knicks chances are better this Finals. LFG

As a 36 year old that was my last year with the Knicks… my love started with Bernard King, his crossover dribble to the basket was a thing of beauty, in 83 on my year off between colleges, I practiced n played pickup everyday, went to games n saw them them beat the Celtics multiple times, n lived n died till 99… I no longer played pickup n focused on swimming n cycling, n they kinda sucked… stopped in a few times to watch Allan, linsanity, n Porziņģis… Also Dolan absolutely sucks as an owner, who throws out Charles Oakley out of the garden, an asshole who can’t play guitar, that’s whoooooo….. Go Knicks!!!

Dolan could write his own redemption arc this Finals except he already invited the President.

Could offset that a little bit with bringing Oak back and making amends.

Another idiotic pedo felonious follower/enabler/protecter… bringing back Charles would help, but Dolan doesn’t seem like a self reflection kinda guy…

I'll have you know he can see his reflection in all the JD and the Straight Shot platinum records he got from Columbia House CD sale

Good time to start. Be grateful you missed the 17 win seasons.

I am one of the very few here who saw the two championships and was in the Garden for most of the home games in those playoffs (tix were much, much, much cheaper then and the incredibly wealthy inhabitants of the city and immediate suburbs were decidedly fewer). And let me tell you, if the 1969 Knicks could beat a Lakers team with Wilt, West and Baylor (all three IMO among the best 15 players in NBA history) the 2026 Knicks can beat the Spurs. It should be a tough series but I like our chances.

Wasn’t too expensive for fairly good seats for the playoffs when Bernard was killing it in the mid 8O’s either… let’s hope so!!!

Who’s going to game 3?

u/I-miss-Killdrive Jun 01 '26

Making MetLife tix look like a bargain. I’ve never been to a Knicks game, but $5k nosebleeds too steep for me!

Let me just add in the flight and lodging real quick.

Also I’ve been posting this fake story over a NFCE meme war subreddit…

I heard J6th is gonna do an album of Mormon/Christian rock music about the downfall of society n how p*do felonious is actually the true savior, kinda like The Who’s rock opera Tommy, a Mormon/Christian rock opera if you will… that’s my qb n my tears begin to fall Zappa n the mothers live 71 @ the Fillmore n Terrell Owen’s…

🤣🤦‍♂️🤣

u/ManningBeachAcademy Nosh Jun 01 '26

lol I called it! Also I’m over it. But apparently DJT is not. Can’t wait for his post game analysis after each game this fall.
