HOLBROOK, Rangers down 1-0, Knicks fall short, same old Mets The titles speak for themselves, let’s get into it.
Knicks fall short, what a season. The Knicks came into this season with some serious expectations and boy did they deliver. in my lifetime I had only seen the Knicks win 2 playoff series, with 50 loss season’s sandwiched in between, for many years the Knicks had been attached to free agents who could come here and put the Knicks back to where they belong, after missing out on LeBron, KD, Kyrie Irving among numerous others. For the first time in a long time we can confidently say the Knicks will be a force to be reckoned with for many years to come.
Rangers down 1-0, the Rangers played their worst game of the playoffs on Wednesday night in a ugly 3-0 loss to the Panthers at the garden, the Rangers are in dangerous territory after this loss not only because being in a 1-0 hole, but having to now win probably two games in Florida, this group has responded to every punch in the mouth thus far and I don’t think they will fold this easily.
Same old Mets, the Mets are coming off a sweep of the Cleveland Guardians and looked absolutely lifeless doing so, the metros consistently make boneheaded decisions on the base-paths , the bullpen is falling apart and the offense disappears for weeks at a time, the only constant has been the starting pitching, which, funny enough was the biggest question mark coming into the year. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I trust David Stearns and think he is the right guy for the job but, it’s getting harder to see his plan for the future.
