00:00But the Knicks history, you know, 99, they beat them,
00:04but they've never beaten them since.
00:0699.
00:07Like, I mean, like, was Mafia even alive in 99?
00:12I don't even know.
00:13Like, 99.
00:15That's the last time the Knicks beat the Pacers.
00:17Well, listen, they have a long tradition of history of playing each other.
00:21They've played each other, I do believe, six times in the playoffs
00:26with each team winning three.
00:28We can start back, Pharrell, 1992, the John Starks head-butting Reggie Miller
00:34and watching Ewing and Oakley.
00:35They played him eight times.
00:36Eight times.
00:37But I remember going back from 92, obviously 94, winning at home game seven,
00:43the missed layup in 95 by Ewing.
00:46Then, obviously, they beat them in 1990.
00:48The missed layup on the back of the heel and the rim.
00:51That game went right down Main Street.
00:53Right down Main Street.
00:55In 99, Ewing Terrence, you know, has the Achilles.
00:58Larry Johnson, four-point play.
01:00They win.
01:01Pacers get them back in 2000.
01:02And then the last time that we thought the Knicks were really this good
01:06is, remember, Roy Hibbert had that big block of Carmelo.
01:10They beat the Knicks in six games, even though Woody had a great season.
01:13So, this is a rivalry.
01:16Like, this has gone back since the early 90s.
01:19Indiana don't like the Knicks.
01:21The Knicks don't like Indiana.
01:23Our guy Preston Pacer, he's a friend.
01:25No, he's not.
01:26Next two weeks, not talking to the guy.
01:29You're a Knicks fan.
01:30You're not talking to him either.
01:31This is the way we roll now.
01:33We hate him.
01:34But this is big here because the best part about this whole Final Four of the NBA is this.
01:41You have four teams.
01:43One team hasn't won it in 52 years.
01:46Right?
01:47A second team in Indiana who's never won it, only been to one NBA Finals.
01:51You have a third team in Oklahoma City, never won it, only been to one NBA Final.
01:56And then you have Minnesota, who's never been to the NBA Finals.
02:00So, there's going to be a new era of basketball here, hopefully starting with these four teams.
02:05I mean, I just said earlier that the game six was better than sex for me.
02:10Like, I honestly, I was in euphoria.
02:14Like, I have never seen a better Knick game in my entire life.
02:19And here's the thing.
02:20Like, people are sitting there knocking, including our buddy Matt Parole.
02:23Oh, you're going to celebrate a second-round win?
02:28Like, that's like when the Red Sox came back and beat the Yankees.
02:32And they were crying.
02:35We didn't cry, Knick fans.
02:37We just are excited at what's happening with our team.
02:41It's the best chance we've had since the 90s.
02:44Can they finish it off?
02:45I don't know.
02:46But we're going to enjoy it.
02:47But I will tell you this right now.
02:49Listen, screw him.
02:49I love him.
02:50He's a great guy.
02:51And I'm friends with him.
02:52And I love, I think, the world of him.
02:54And screw him.
02:55I mean, honestly, he's another one.
02:57A Bostonian.
02:59Like, go ahead.
03:01Go ahead.
03:02I love the guy.
03:03Screw you, too.
03:05I don't think.
03:07Shut up.
03:09I'll tell you as much.
03:10You saw what it was on 7th Avenue, right?
03:13On after the win Friday.
03:15I will tell you this.
03:16If the Knicks happen to win the title, they're going to have to bring, like, the armed forces.
03:24Like, you know, people have no idea.
03:27That may not be enough.
03:28Army Rangers, Green Beret.
03:31Like, bring them all.
03:32The New York City Cops and the National Guard could not contain that place if the Knicks won the title.
03:38That's how big it is.
03:39Because unlike, listen.
03:41Frank was there.
03:42He was naked and drunk.
03:44People were, they were pouring liquor on him, setting him on fire like tequila.
03:48He was on fire.
03:49I mean, that's a story that you can talk about.
03:52I'm not going in there, especially the naked part.
03:55But I think the thing that people have to say is this.
03:57When you think about New York City, like, it's half Mets, half, you know, Yankees, right?
04:02It's a little bit more Giants than Jets.
04:04It's a Knick town.
04:06Screw the Nets.
04:08It's a Knick town.
04:09It's always been a Knick town.
04:11So, when the Knicks win, that's like Boston winning.
04:14The Nets didn't even matter when they were in the finals.
04:17No one cared.
04:18Yeah, I mean, I'll tell you right now.
04:20I think I could sit on the bench in the old Izod Center, Brendan Byrne Arena, when they
04:26were playing in the final finals.
04:27It had so many names, I lost track.
04:29Yeah, well, they need to bulldoze that thing.
04:32They were pretty good, though, with Insanity and Jay Kitsch.
04:34Yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:35They were pretty good.
04:36They had a little game.
04:38They were a pretty good team.
