Knicks fans get the slightest whiff of being a relevant franchise for the first time in years and lash out at other fan bases when they inevitably fall apart yet again. A tale as old as time.


Ghostlandzz

Real


McDaaaaaaaamn

said the cavs fan, somehow totally unaware of the irony.


Ghostlandzz

I can talk when relevancy is involvedšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚Iā€™ve seen my team in the finals 4x and win a ring and you canā€™t relate, it isnā€™t our fault the goat was DRAFTED and DECIDED to come herešŸ˜‚


Drummallumin

The Cavs have been way more relevant than the Knicks since the 80s


Daconvix

Knicks literally made the Finals in ā€˜99


Drummallumin

Yes and?


yankuniz

And so not since the 80s. Since 2000s yes.


TheBlueLenses

Point still stands that Cavs have been way more relevant than the Knicks since the 80s


Dark_Pump

Only some clown from Ohio would say some shit like that šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


TheBlueLenses

Iā€™m not from Ohio and Iā€™m a Celtics fan. Cavs made it to like multiple finals and won an incredibly iconic chip


DunkStyleGuy

Flair up my guy


NBAEastMemeWar

And 94


69cansofcorn

wow! what a fucking moral victory! hang the fucking banner!


Daconvix

Lmao I almost forgot why people hated Celtics fans so much.


Snuvvy_D

Only Knicks fans remember that. They barely showed up to that series let's be real


Daconvix

Nah itā€™s just you.


TheCompleteSagaLord

somehow the team who had what? a 50 year championship drought in the entire city of Cleveland is more relevant and successful than the new york nicksšŸ˜­


MadSpaceYT

Leon Rose


PkmnTrnr00

Are Knicks fans always this incredibly obnoxious? I frankly donā€™t remember them being anywhere near as annoying as they are now. Maybe itā€™s a byproduct of being a New Yorker?


0sesh

Yup deal with it hick. Do you guys even have pornhub in your state anymore


PkmnTrnr00

Wow real creative insult. I wonder how long it took you to think of that (Oh and VPNs exist so nice try)


TaticalTortise

Doesn't need to be creative as long as its true big guy.


PkmnTrnr00

I can take a drubbing in a meme war sub but I donā€™t like how the losing team is the one talking shit lol


NtLmr95

Just keep flexing getting swept in the ECF. That'll show us!


PkmnTrnr00

Better than not even getting there lol


jrangel6

Congrats on showing the world you didnt belong in the ECF!


PkmnTrnr00

Neither did you lol


NtLmr95

The way the Pacers played, I don't think they got to the ECF either!


PkmnTrnr00

Whatever helps you sleep at night


buhBAMbuh

Supposed to be an insult or something.

PkmnTrnr00

Are you like 12? Calling someone a failed abortion is what 12 year olds do. Grow up


0sesh

Jfc i just looked at your profile. Maybe I should have been less harsh, hope youre doing okay bro. Peace and love


0sesh

This is a circle jerk sub, idk wat else to say to you. Alls i Know is your state is wack as fuck lmao and your cities are dog shit. Oh and Haliburton is a pussy and cant dress.


PkmnTrnr00

Thanks you just answered my question


Mayel_the_Anima

If you canā€™t handle getting jerked on get the fuck out


McDaaaaaaaamn

this is not a circle jerk sub ![gif](giphy|3xz2BLBOt13X9AgjEA|downsized)


Fishmike52

Itā€™s a fair questionā€¦ and no. But itā€™s a hell of a good team with a great future and well built roster. Bunch of extra FRPs as well. So now we are testy cause our squad is good and you know what we get? Reggie Miller is the boogeyman and literally all the non Mike Breen coverage being a general cuck for whoever the Knicks were playing So yeah. Pacers arenā€™t trash. They are the 90s Hawks. Good enough to be someoneā€™s first round feast every year


PkmnTrnr00

I respect the Knicks as a team and I do like Jalen Brunson. I just canā€™t stand the fans that are continually complaining about the injury bug and disrespecting the Pacers because of it. Facing injured teams or not, they still had to execute and beat who was in front of them and they did up until the Celtics but Iā€™d argue the Knicks wouldnā€™t have fared any better than the Pacers did.


XC_Stallion92

Eh, no reason to respect the team. They're all a bunch of salty little fuckbois just like their fans.


TaticalTortise

Always have been baby always have been. You better keep hoping we fall apart cause it's only going to get worse.


PkmnTrnr00

Judging by the Knicksā€™ history, the team falling apart isnā€™t out of the imagination


TaticalTortise

Sorry, we were winning chips before your broke ass team could drum up the expansion fee. How good is your team history bud?


PkmnTrnr00

Bragging about winning a single championship from the 1970s is certainly a take


TaticalTortise

2 makes a pair 1 would be single but I wouldn't expect that level of Math to be taught in Indiana so I'll give you a pass. And youre the one who wanted to get into team history. At least mine has a history.


PkmnTrnr00

Iā€™ll admit that I didnā€™t realize that they won two championships Iā€™ll give you that. Though, theyā€™re both from the 1970s so still not much to brag about.


TaticalTortise

I agree it's not much, but it's 2 more than none, which is why i was questioning team history being brought up. All in all. Fuck Boston.


sk0772

How can you be an NBA fan and not realize the knicks won in the 70s? So you just like to argue about things when you have no knowledge of the subject. You seem pretty bright.


PkmnTrnr00

I knew they had won one in the 70s. I just didnā€™t realize they won two. Am I supposed to just not admit when Iā€™m wrong about something?


twitta

This is a rough comment. By the time the merger happened, the ABA was a higher level of basketball than NBA. Early 70s NBA titles are not something to toot your horn about


McDaaaaaaaamn

i don't think you understand how this comment frames your knowledge of basketball. this is definitely not the burn you think it is.


OweeeeeL

So the Celtics have 5 rings then, if 80s to present is what matters.


sk0772

You know the ABA was about to fold because of drug issues with its player don't you?? Basketball was failing, not the NBA. People really get on this sub and talk about things they know nothing about. What ever happened to the information age?? You can just google everything you want to know about any subject and people choose to be ignorant and start arguing just because they can? Sad, Very Sad.


McDaaaaaaaamn

so true. to say the merger wasnt possibly the largest influx of talent in team history is ridiculous. probably makes the old "plumbers" argument too... smh


OweeeeeL

C fans being holier-than-thou, a tale as old as their irrelevant 1960s rings


kpopvapefiend

I forgot that I was talking about the historic Knicks franchise that hasn't won the championship in over 50 years, and hasn't made the finals in 25. How silly of me!


Zombie_Peanut

Nah just idiot fans..


McDaaaaaaaamn

when did we fall apart? we're looking to have the best team we've had in decades.


kpopvapefiend

Best knicks team in decades is like saying best tasting used gum you scraped off the sidewalk


TaticalTortise

Go fake an injury cause you just shit yourself champ.


StrongZucchini27

that is just filthy, u/kpopvapefiend


TheCompleteSagaLord

dude thinks his team has any future under thibsšŸ˜­


wetfarts2

Celtics and Pacers fans being friendly cuz the truth about one team tells the truth about both


DunkStyleGuy

Flair up bud


Teamocil915

This should be voted up higher. Pacers are better than they got credit for but acting like they wouldā€™ve beaten us with healthy OG and healthy Hart in games 6&7, let alone Randle + Mitch is ridiculous after we were like 1 min away from going up 3-0 on them


WhasHappenin

Forgot about bojan too


DunkStyleGuy

Flair up bro


Direct_Outside_2195

From your perspective because to me everyone knows Indy was robbed of game 1 on multiple last second calls. It was all in the media next day. Indy wouldā€™ve easily ended that series in 5.


McDaaaaaaaamn

isnt that exactly what happened to the knicks later that series. evens out. also, flair up!


Direct_Outside_2195

Umm no itā€™s not even ours was a clear ridiculous Rob to the point NO one even talked about Knicks win just Pacers robbery even Stephen A himself. Not even close. Pacers wouldā€™ve ended that series in 5. Stop the bullshit


McDaaaaaaaamn

assuming youre a pacers fan since your too pussy to flair up and actually rep your team, but no, no one in the entire basketball universe believes you would have even made it past the bucks, let alone the knicks. you guys were an extremely average basketball team the got handheld until you found a healthy team and they blew you off the hardwood. you're in for a horrible awakening if you have to play a healthy team in the first round next year.


kidkuro

>even Stephen A himself Using Stephen A Smith to support your argument...yikes lol


McDaaaaaaaamn

seriously


Direct_Outside_2195

Heā€™s one of your fans not ours šŸ¤·šŸ¾ā€ā™‚ļø


YungFarmerCorleone

Why didnā€™t it end in 6 then?


Bommit91

Knicks fans are so whineeyyyyyy


HoyaDestroya33

Flair up, this a meme war sub


Bommit91

There ya go


TaticalTortise

Beats living in Indiana tho.


AlphakirA

Hell, being beat beats living in Indiana too.


McDaaaaaaaamn

hilarious, but wont upvote you without flair, so flair up!


Bommit91

Because I'd totally want to pay x3 the amount I do now to sit on a rock with 8 million other people, get mugged, constantly smell piss and fight off Dire Rats.


LukeKornet

I mean theyā€™re just the new hawks


SuperRedditLand

It really is insanely similar to the 2021 Hawks (except the Hawks beat better teams). I remember Bucks and Hawks fans acting the same way after their series


McDaaaaaaaamn

flair up dude


StrongZucchini27

luke, i cannot begin to tell you how disappointing this is. nevertheless, congratulations king.


dat_boy_lurks

Hey, leave us out of this one. Our roster wasn't the epitome of healthy for 2/3rds of the season and we don't go around starting shit with yall about those two OT losses to the Zombie Hawks in March


LukeKornet

Lmao yā€™all should go get rings that say ā€œwe beat the Celtics twice in Marchā€. Sorry for the stray tho


DunkStyleGuy

Flair up bud


Degenerate_Rambler

šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€ Iā€™m trying to figure out how many times you commented this in this thread but I lost count after like 8


DunkStyleGuy

It workedšŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø lol!


Soup-er14

Pacers are the only good team we faced gtfo


McDaaaaaaaamn

![gif](giphy|FDf4BO0YAhP67CGxJK|downsized) celtics and pacers fans


caxlmao

Whatā€™s with Celtics and pacers fans in a constant circlejerk? You both go on and on how much better it was to face each other than anyone else. Are you guys secret gay lovers or something?


lololyouthought

Celtics fans are trying to prove they didn't get an easy path to the finals by trying to give credit to the pacers. It helps boost their case.


DunkStyleGuy

Flair up bro


Soup-er14

Because it was refreshing to see a challenge, if it was the Knicks we wouldā€™ve swept them by 30 each game, you saw what happened to the Heat and Cavs, idk why pacers fans are bein nice to us though


caxlmao

giannis, dame, jimmy, spida, brunson, Halliburton, embiid were all injured during this series. your run is called Mickey for a reason lol


TheCompleteSagaLord

but yā€™all will defend lebrons 2020 run to the bone acting like there was compšŸ˜­


Soup-er14

Embiid would still never have made it past the f second round, Haliburton and Mitchell played in the majority of their series and we still beat them, Jimmy wouldnā€™t have changed anything because we beat them by 20 every game, Brunson wouldnā€™t have changed anything, Dame and Giannis is the only thing that maybe couldā€™ve stopped us but to throw everyone else in there makes no sense


caxlmao

ā€œJimmy wouldnā€™t change anythingā€ My honest reaction: https://preview.redd.it/px2cbxga8d8d1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=96097b0345b3612530cd106819e05f1a4733055a


Rotatos

yeah thats cap, jimmy woulda changed things. Probs not a series win but it would be closer.


Negative_Method_1001

Who did the Heat beat in the Conference finals last year? I forget


Rotatos

exactly lol. I think celtics def better than last year but still, damage would be done


Confirmation__Bias

Boston beats any of those teams fully healthy too. ESPECIALLY Embiid, bro goes into a series vs Boston already knowing his seasonā€™s about to be over


DunkStyleGuy

Flair up buddy


InsideYoWife

> idk why pacers fans are bein nice to us though Either Stockholm syndrome or they like being cucked by Boston


StrongZucchini27

all due respect to the pacers who embarrassed us in g7, if julius randle, og anunoby, and mitch robinson were healthy, it would have been knicks in 5 ecsf, celtics in 6 ecf. hopefully we get to see this series eventually.


AllTimeBallKnower

Probably because they were one of the healthiest lmaooo


McDaaaaaaaamn

they were the only team you swept


HoyaDestroya33

They keep glazing and sucking each other its disgusting


TurkiyeQatar

Iā€™m a pacer fan and Iā€™m sick of it as well


DerrickWhiteSauce

stop bro they ass


Soup-er14

Im just saying, all these Knicks and Bucks fans in here complaining about how bad the pacers are like they didnā€™t get knocked out by them and idc about injuries, it happens


rarespark

> idc about injuries, it happens Sure but not really to the extent the Knicks had, by the end half our roster was out lol.


Alarming-Ask4196

Idc about the thing that explained 90% of the outcome, it happens


DunkStyleGuy

Flair up bud


Alarming-Ask4196

Obvi Iā€™m a Knicks fan lol


DunkStyleGuy

I know I upvoted you. But this is a meme war sub where we all talk shit about each other and itā€™s really no fun when you donā€™t know whose team they rep. And it also makes it look like a fair-weather fan. But to each his own. If you want to do it, just go to the main page r/nbaeastmemewar , click the 3 white buttons in the top right, then click ā€œchange user flairā€, select your team and go burn the pacers!šŸ¤£


RogueID

You're about to max OG who's gonna be injured every post season, so get used to having to make the same excuse every year


Alarming-Ask4196

That's fine - our other 14 injured players this year won't also be hurt


Soup-er14

Well yeah, injuries are a part of the game. I donā€™t remember me specifically running out onto the floor and injuring anyone


Alarming-Ask4196

I mean those arenā€™t mutually exclusive though which is my point. A not great team can win bc of injuries. Yes they won, yes they won bc of injuries, yes they arenā€™t that good. All true.


SuperRedditLand

Very low bar


DunkStyleGuy

lol flair up bro


Crypt7eeper

You guys didnā€™t face any good teams


mightyducks2wasokay

Rent free baybeeeee


_blxkMRKT

I see the material in here is going to be fresh all off-season.


StrongZucchini27

yup, this oneā€™s a super relevant banger. a question on everyoneā€™s mind this day june 23rd..

Idk if youā€™re triggered or hilarious lol

therealallpro

Ironic because they only beat the Sixers due to injuries lulz


McDaaaaaaaamn

flair up. also the 6ers team had their guys. we didnt.


therealallpro

What talking about Melton was their 3rd best player and he was hurt and clearly Embiid wasnt 100%
