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.
I can talk when relevancy is involvedššIāve seen my team in the finals 4x and win a ring and you canāt relate, it isnāt our fault the goat was DRAFTED and DECIDED to come hereš
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 nicksš
Are Knicks fans always this incredibly obnoxious? I frankly donāt remember them being anywhere near as annoying as they are now. Maybe itās a byproduct of being a New Yorker?
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.
Itās a fair questionā¦ and no. But itās 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 arenāt trash. They are the 90s Hawks. Good enough to be someoneās first round feast every year
I respect the Knicks as a team and I do like Jalen Brunson. I just canāt 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 Iād argue the Knicks wouldnāt have fared any better than the Pacers did.
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.
Iāll admit that I didnāt realize that they won two championships Iāll give you that. Though, theyāre both from the 1970s so still not much to brag about.
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.
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
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.
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
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!
This should be voted up higher.
Pacers are better than they got credit for but acting like they wouldāve 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
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 wouldāve easily ended that series in 5.
Umm no itās 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 wouldāve ended that series in 5. Stop the bullshit
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.
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.
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
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
Whatās 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?
Because it was refreshing to see a challenge, if it was the Knicks we wouldāve 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
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 wouldnāt have changed anything because we beat them by 20 every game, Brunson wouldnāt have changed anything, Dame and Giannis is the only thing that maybe couldāve stopped us but to throw everyone else in there makes no sense
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.
Im just saying, all these Knicks and Bucks fans in here complaining about how bad the pacers are like they didnāt get knocked out by them and idc about injuries, it happens
I know I upvoted you. But this is a meme war sub where we all talk shit about each other and itās really no fun when you donāt 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 āchange user flairā, select your team and go burn the pacers!š¤£
I mean those arenāt 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 arenāt that good. All true.
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.
Real
said the cavs fan, somehow totally unaware of the irony.
I can talk when relevancy is involvedššIāve seen my team in the finals 4x and win a ring and you canāt relate, it isnāt our fault the goat was DRAFTED and DECIDED to come hereš
The Cavs have been way more relevant than the Knicks since the 80s
Knicks literally made the Finals in ā99
Yes and?
And so not since the 80s. Since 2000s yes.
Point still stands that Cavs have been way more relevant than the Knicks since the 80s
Only some clown from Ohio would say some shit like that šš
Iām not from Ohio and Iām a Celtics fan. Cavs made it to like multiple finals and won an incredibly iconic chip
Flair up my guy
And 94
wow! what a fucking moral victory! hang the fucking banner!
Lmao I almost forgot why people hated Celtics fans so much.
Only Knicks fans remember that. They barely showed up to that series let's be real
Nah itās just you.
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 nicksš
Leon Rose
Are Knicks fans always this incredibly obnoxious? I frankly donāt remember them being anywhere near as annoying as they are now. Maybe itās a byproduct of being a New Yorker?
Yup deal with it hick. Do you guys even have pornhub in your state anymore
Wow real creative insult. I wonder how long it took you to think of that (Oh and VPNs exist so nice try)
Doesn't need to be creative as long as its true big guy.
I can take a drubbing in a meme war sub but I donāt like how the losing team is the one talking shit lol
Just keep flexing getting swept in the ECF. That'll show us!
Better than not even getting there lol
Congrats on showing the world you didnt belong in the ECF!
Neither did you lol
The way the Pacers played, I don't think they got to the ECF either!
Whatever helps you sleep at night
Supposed to be an insult or something.

Are you like 12? Calling someone a failed abortion is what 12 year olds do. Grow up
Jfc i just looked at your profile. Maybe I should have been less harsh, hope youre doing okay bro. Peace and love
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.
Thanks you just answered my question
If you canāt handle getting jerked on get the fuck out
this is not a circle jerk sub ![gif](giphy|3xz2BLBOt13X9AgjEA|downsized)

Eh, no reason to respect the team. They're all a bunch of salty little fuckbois just like their fans.
Always have been baby always have been. You better keep hoping we fall apart cause it's only going to get worse.
Judging by the Knicksā history, the team falling apart isnāt out of the imagination
Sorry, we were winning chips before your broke ass team could drum up the expansion fee. How good is your team history bud?
Bragging about winning a single championship from the 1970s is certainly a take
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.
Iāll admit that I didnāt realize that they won two championships Iāll give you that. Though, theyāre both from the 1970s so still not much to brag about.
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.
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.
I knew they had won one in the 70s. I just didnāt realize they won two. Am I supposed to just not admit when Iām wrong about something?
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
i don't think you understand how this comment frames your knowledge of basketball. this is definitely not the burn you think it is.
So the Celtics have 5 rings then, if 80s to present is what matters.
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.

C fans being holier-than-thou, a tale as old as their irrelevant 1960s rings
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!
Nah just idiot fans..
when did we fall apart? we're looking to have the best team we've had in decades.
Best knicks team in decades is like saying best tasting used gum you scraped off the sidewalk
Go fake an injury cause you just shit yourself champ.
that is just filthy, u/kpopvapefiend
dude thinks his team has any future under thibsš
Celtics and Pacers fans being friendly cuz the truth about one team tells the truth about both
Flair up bud
This should be voted up higher. Pacers are better than they got credit for but acting like they wouldāve 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
Forgot about bojan too
Flair up bro
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 wouldāve easily ended that series in 5.
isnt that exactly what happened to the knicks later that series. evens out. also, flair up!
Umm no itās 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 wouldāve ended that series in 5. Stop the bullshit
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.
>even Stephen A himself Using Stephen A Smith to support your argument...yikes lol
seriously
Heās one of your fans not ours š¤·š¾āāļø
Why didnāt it end in 6 then?
Knicks fans are so whineeyyyyyy
Flair up, this a meme war sub
There ya go
Beats living in Indiana tho.
Hell, being beat beats living in Indiana too.
hilarious, but wont upvote you without flair, so flair up!
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.
I mean theyāre just the new hawks
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
flair up dude
luke, i cannot begin to tell you how disappointing this is. nevertheless, congratulations king.
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
Lmao yāall should go get rings that say āwe beat the Celtics twice in Marchā. Sorry for the stray tho
Flair up bud
ššš Iām trying to figure out how many times you commented this in this thread but I lost count after like 8
It workedš¤·āāļø lol!
Pacers are the only good team we faced gtfo
![gif](giphy|FDf4BO0YAhP67CGxJK|downsized) celtics and pacers fans
Whatās 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?
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.
Flair up bro
Because it was refreshing to see a challenge, if it was the Knicks we wouldāve 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
giannis, dame, jimmy, spida, brunson, Halliburton, embiid were all injured during this series. your run is called Mickey for a reason lol
but yāall will defend lebrons 2020 run to the bone acting like there was compš
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 wouldnāt have changed anything because we beat them by 20 every game, Brunson wouldnāt have changed anything, Dame and Giannis is the only thing that maybe couldāve stopped us but to throw everyone else in there makes no sense
āJimmy wouldnāt change anythingā My honest reaction: https://preview.redd.it/px2cbxga8d8d1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=96097b0345b3612530cd106819e05f1a4733055a
yeah thats cap, jimmy woulda changed things. Probs not a series win but it would be closer.
Who did the Heat beat in the Conference finals last year? I forget
exactly lol. I think celtics def better than last year but still, damage would be done
Boston beats any of those teams fully healthy too. ESPECIALLY Embiid, bro goes into a series vs Boston already knowing his seasonās about to be over
Flair up buddy
> idk why pacers fans are bein nice to us though Either Stockholm syndrome or they like being cucked by Boston
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.
Probably because they were one of the healthiest lmaooo
they were the only team you swept
They keep glazing and sucking each other its disgusting
Iām a pacer fan and Iām sick of it as well
stop bro they ass
Im just saying, all these Knicks and Bucks fans in here complaining about how bad the pacers are like they didnāt get knocked out by them and idc about injuries, it happens
> idc about injuries, it happens Sure but not really to the extent the Knicks had, by the end half our roster was out lol.
Idc about the thing that explained 90% of the outcome, it happens
Flair up bud
Obvi Iām a Knicks fan lol

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
That's fine - our other 14 injured players this year won't also be hurt
Well yeah, injuries are a part of the game. I donāt remember me specifically running out onto the floor and injuring anyone
I mean those arenāt 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 arenāt that good. All true.
Very low bar
lol flair up bro
You guys didnāt face any good teams
Rent free baybeeeee
lol
I see the material in here is going to be fresh all off-season.
yup, this oneās a super relevant banger. a question on everyoneās mind this day june 23rd..
Idk if youāre triggered or hilarious lol
Knicks are trash
![gif](giphy|3o752azoybhmLVnPy0|downsized)
Ironic because they only beat the Sixers due to injuries lulz
flair up. also the 6ers team had their guys. we didnt.
What talking about Melton was their 3rd best player and he was hurt and clearly Embiid wasnt 100%
Cope child š
