KA got first degree because it was a premeditated. He knew where he was going and who was going there and had planned to fight Austin for what ever reason, s he brought a knock prepared to kill. Premeditated = 1st Degree👍

These are professionals. There is no way you score 70 in the first half and 30 in the second. No way. Hate to be that guy and I dont want to believe it but there was something fishy going with the last game……

To Marcus Morris, no it’s *not* a praiseworthy moment when Wemby gestured to his head at the other player. The man he was fainting has reportedly struggled with his mental health. Taunting is also bad sportsmanship that should be officiated with a warning. Tired of ppl excusing all the foul play by Wembanyama. 🙄

Get that be out of here.
We want to see the taunting. That is one of the main reasons to watch or even play sports.

Yo what were the Knicks thinking about in game 5 what happen to the pick and roll with towns Brunson went back to hero ball dribbling for 20 seconds of the shot clock what are the coaches seeing wake up and coach Brown needs to play Clarkson some more

PLEASE KNICKS. NO BLOWOUT!
The amount of energy it takes to get and sustain a big lead is taxing.
Ask the Spurs.
The Knicks blowing out the previous 2 teams was a walk in the park. Nobody talks about the energy drain of playing strong defensive teams like the Knicks/Spurs.
Steady wins the race.
If the Spurs get out front early, GOOD! The Knicks increase energy after the half.
