00:00I don't know why Kyle, I do think that this series is far from over.
00:07The Knicks have basically had to, I would say, use every single piece of energy and
00:13get every big shot to beat Philly twice, cover once, 1-0-4, 1-0-1 the final there, so Philly
00:20does cover, the total was 2-0-5, the Knicks are up to a 2-0 lead and listen, I think at
00:26this point it would be foolish for me to say that the Sixers are going to come back and
00:29win the series, but I don't think that this is over by any means.
00:33I completely agree there.
00:34I would not be shocked if this series goes back to New York for Game 5 and it's tied
00:392-2.
00:40It really feels like the Garden willed those victories into existence, the one on Saturday
00:45and the one last night, especially with that play at the end there, but I mean, Jalen Brunson
00:49is shooting under 30% from the field and the Knicks are up 2-0 in the series.
00:53That is absolutely ridiculous.
00:54I give a ton of credit to Josh Hart, who is only 6'4", and he is leading the entire series
00:59in rebounding so far.
01:00He's knocked down four threes in each of the first two games.
01:03He's played 90 out of 96 minutes in this series.
01:05He's been the X Factor for New York.
01:07Obviously, Dante DiVincenzo hit that massive three last night to push them over the edge,
01:12but I expect Philly to bounce back at home.
01:14This feels like a series that should go six, maybe seven games, but that also hinges on
01:19the idea that Joel Embiid can stay healthy and play in every game in this series because
01:24again, he was kind of hobbling last night and I think especially at the end of the game
01:27there where he let up a couple of those rebounds, I feel like he normally gets to those.
