Yesterday, of course, we wake up to the New York Knickerbockers as, uh, the, uh, the Emirates Cup champions and coming home with a trophy for Friday night's game against, uh, the Philadelphia 76ers. But then there's a little side story too that's not very good. You know, people forgot there's a game tonight against the Indiana Pacers in Indiana and all the The Pacers are trying to get the number one seed and, uh, pick in the draft for next year. The Knicks did something that I can't, I hate, I hate, I hate, I hate about basketball. So they win the championship. Every Knicks fan's riding high, right? Coming home, no banner, but a big celebration, the trophy, thumbing asses, the whole thing, right? And then the Knicks announced yesterday into this morning. That pretty much the entire starting lineup and Mitchell Robinson are doubtful for tonight's game against the Indiana Pacers. Hangover. I blame the NBA for this. I do not blame my beloved Knicks. Knicks have done nothing wrong here. This is not load management. This is called celebration management. This is a franchise that hasn't won a damn thing since 19. 73. This is a franchise and a fan base that is desperate for something to celebrate. So the Knicks win the Emirates Cup, the in-season tournament. I'm thrilled about it. Everyone's happy about it. Celebration on Friday in Vegas. In Vegas, yes, the NBA has, if the NBA, let me stop for a second and gather my thoughts here because it's very important I say this, all right. Because this is not a Knick thing. This is not a Leon Rose thing. This is not a James Dolan thing. This is not a Mike Brown thing. This is not a, of the four guys that were announced may not play. It's not a them thing either. This is an Adam Silver thing. This is an NBA thing. If you want people, because not everyone has bought in yet to this amazing, awesome, second to none, second to none, very important legacy. Building in-season tournament. If you want the majority of basketball fans to buy into this being special, and that's what the NBA wants. It's never going away as long as Emirates keeps writing that check. It is not going away. And us as Knicks fans, we're loving it. We're celebrating it because it's a championship, something we've not won since '73 and it's not the same, obviously, but it's still a championship, right? If you want people that are on the fence or against it to take it seriously, then you have to treat it seriously. And what I mean by that is the two teams that make it into the final game, so in this case the San Antonio Spurs and the New York Knicks, you have to understand that if you want them to treat it specially, you have to allow them to treat it special, meaning when you win the championship. On a Tuesday night in Las Vegas, it's hookers, it's coke, it's marijuana, it's Hennessy, it's Grand Marnier, it's popping bottles, it's doing debauchery type things, meaning the two teams, I don't care who they are for their whoever it is for all time. When the game is on Tuesday, neither one of those teams should have a game till that earliest Friday. I would prefer Saturday because if you want us to treat it special, then you want the players. To treat it special and what I know about professional athletes winning a special championship is the celebration that happens immediately afterwards and especially in Las Vegas.
