Crazy⑧s, In Association With iSayUghh, present to you, knicksonline.com, the first playoff game thread on this glorious site in 7 years! How fitting that one Carmelo Anthony is number 7. Is that what you call 'Good Ju Ju'?
But before the madness ensues, each and every one of you MUST view, or review, this epic video created by resident ko.com genius -

And now, as our banner arises from the bowels of mediocrity once again, resident cunning linguist iSayUghh will set the wheels in motion with an underdog speech Winston Churchill would be proud of......
Soundtrack to the underdogs battle cry.
Press play NOW
RISE OF THE UNDERDOG
A heavy burden is the weight of doubt. Adversity an obstacle as strenuous on the mind as the body. Is our battle already lost in futility? Must we look up as we're looked down upon? Is our enemy's pedestal as lofty as it seems?
If so then we have already lost.
But that is not so in this hour.
The underdogs throughout the annals of time have questioned their mettle, and risen despite the weight of their opposition and their doubters.
We are a team. Forged by its resilience, strength and energy. A team budding with exuberance and want. A team, despite its detractors, possessed of deft skill, experience, tenacity, all of which are amplified by the underdog's flame.
We must not underrate the gravity of the task which lies before us or the temerity of the ordeal, to which we shall not be found unequal.
Our enemy fears us in its thought. It's assuredness shrouded by our unquenchable desire for supremacy.
Our potency undeniable, it raises the brows of a nation swept by enthusiasm.
The underdogs lurk.
Their senses made keen as they smell the wounds of their oppressors.
They know that the time to tear and take what is theirs is upon them.
As one, the underdogs prowl in search of former glory, forgetting not the savour of its sweetness.
Rise now! Our banner unfurls as we defy all who stand against us!
We are the underdogs! We shall not be turned back!
WE ARE THE NEW YORK KNICKS
YOU STAND IN OUR WAY.
WE WILL CUT YOU DOWN.
AND IF THIS WASN'T A RIVALRY BEFORE, IT ****ING IS NOW
YOUR SUPREMACY DIES TONIGHT AS WE DEAL THE FIRST RESOUNDING BLOW.
I thought I'd ask KO's creator, moderator and pussy devastator, Rady, to add words of inspiration to the thread that's waited 7 years. In typical Rady fashion, he was brief and to the point:
This always gets me pumped up, and to me, it's better then any inspirational words one could tell!
Do it! Press play!

As we all know, hitting our shots at a high rate will be the be all and end all of our chance at getting past these leprechaun lesbians.
The Knicks are 8-29 when they shoot less than 45 percent from the field and 13-32 when they make fewer than 10 threes. How will our offence fare against the 2nd best defence in the league?
We MUST run more designed plays to compensate for any bad shooting spell that may occur during stages of the game(s) and get to the FT line as much as possible. STAT in particular must be given the opportunity to draw fouls on offensive bigs.
Their shot making and defensive assignments are momentous for us. Williams, in particular, must get on the glass, play well in the post and contest shots. He's been called for fouls frequently in the paint over our end season streak, and we can't afford for him to be on the bench in foul trouble.
I consider him the most pivotal role player in a series in which we are under sized, and will rely heavily on his corner 3s which have been there ever since the Melo trade.
中 ON THE INSIDE 中
What is there to say to our 5s? If they don't bring their heads, hearts and heroism to this game, or those that follow, we're in trouble. We expect nothing more than defence and effort on the glass at both ends.
Will they answer the call?
