Hard Knicks Barry

My full breakdown on the Cavs- Knicks. After hours of studying the Cavs and Knicks series on my balcony, I have finally made up my mind. I’m doubling down on the Cavs to win in 7. There hasn’t been a single moment throughout this series where I thought to myself “the Knicks are so much better than the Cavs.” The Cavs just aren’t hitting shots. That’s it. What I’ve seen from the Cavs makes me believe they will win 4 straight. It’s only a 3-0 lead. Brunson was walking around with his head down, not trusting his teammates. You could see it in his eyes as if he knows this series is slipping away from them. And it wasn’t just Brunson. The body language of the entire Knicks roster told the story. These guys are not built for big moments. Everyone thinks the Cavs quit but I actually think that was their plan all along. They got the Knicks exactly where they want them. And now all the pressure is on New York. This is a franchise with a reputation for choking and they know it. One more loss and they could become the first team in NBA history to blow a 3-0 lead. That weight doesn’t go away. Cavs win tonight and we have ourselves a Game 7 at the Garden. Don’t let us get one.
