00:00Now, of course, there was another side of the equation,
00:02and Kenny Atkinson and James Harden didn't do themselves any favors
00:06in their post-game press conferences this week.
00:09Analytically, I think we've won the expectâI said three out of three.
00:13We're two out of three in the expected.
00:15I don't know if you guys follow that, as an expected score.
00:18You know, and we've won two out of three.
00:21And I know you're looking confused, but there is reallyâ
00:25you know, if you believe in process and all that,
00:28I'm like, man, I'll take that later.
00:32How much better, if they're better, are the Knicks than you guys?
00:35I can't even answer that question, honestly.
00:38You know what I mean?
00:38Like, yeah, it was 4-0, but I don't think we had a chance
00:44as far as our best shot, you know, from a standpoint of the circumstances.
00:51You know, obviously, they justâthey dominated us 4-0,
00:56but, yeah, I don't know if I can necessarily answer that question.
01:02Just because, genuinely, I do feel like we are the better team.
01:06Wait, what?
01:09Beg it, Kenny Atkinson.
01:12Beg it, James Harden.
01:15Beg it, losers.
01:17Tears of a clown.
01:19Losers laments.
01:20Are you kidding me?
01:22First of all, James Harden having the nerve, the chutzpah,
01:26the audacity to say,
01:29we're better than the Knicks?
01:31Knicks didn't just win with the greatest point differential ever.
01:35They swept you.
01:36They ran you out of your arena, which was overrun by Knicks fans
01:40because the Cavs fans had nothing to cheer for.
01:43A team with that payroll, highest in the history of the NBA,
01:47trying to get over the hump and win a championship,
01:50adding one of the biggest losers in the history of professional sports,
01:56the biggest underachiever requisite to regular season success
02:01in North American sports history in James Harden.
02:05Adding that guy to this mix was the worst calculation
02:09in the history of professional sports.
02:11And we first guessed that.
02:13James Harden is a losing ball player.
02:15On defense, he has no interest in participating.
02:19He has the mobility of a lamppost.
02:22He plays his worst when it matters the most.
02:25Ask a Rockets fan.
02:27Ask a Sixers fan.
02:29Ask a fan of the L.A. Clippers.
02:32James Harden is not built for this.
02:36And this is who you bring in?
02:38And how about Kenny Atkinson?
02:40Are you kidding me?
02:41I'm a big Kenny Atkinson fan.
02:44Now, Kenny Atkinson, I think he's on the hot seat
02:47based upon what he did or did not do this series.
02:49Doesn't call a timeout in Game 1.
02:52I mean, when the Knicks win a championship,
02:55they should raise a Kenny Atkinson Game 1 jersey
02:58to the rafters at MSG.
03:00I mean, they should put him on a float down 7th Avenue.
03:04I mean, this is amateur hour.
03:06And he says, analytically, we were up 2-1?
03:11What?
03:12What?
03:12Are you kidding me?
03:14This is one of the dumbest quotes I've ever heard.
03:17Did you believe it?
03:19Was it the old Costanza, it's not a lie, if you believe it?
03:22Are you really that dumb?
03:24Are you trying to motivate your team?
03:26Did you actually watch the games?
03:28Maybe not.
03:29You didn't call a timeout in Game 1.
03:31I've never seen anything like that.
03:33That is a joke.
03:35A joke.
03:36I mean, if you're a fan of basketball,
03:40honesty, sanity, professionalism,
03:43if you want winners,
03:45I mean, those are two of the lowest-level,
03:48worst quotes, losers lament, tears of a clown,
03:51I've ever heard in my life.
03:53James Harden and Kenny Atkinson deserve each other.
03:57What a complete and utter disgrace.
03:59Charles Barkley was unbelievable on Inside the NBA,
04:02and that's the best studio show in the history of sports television.
04:05But listening to Chuck,
04:07and they put up the full screen,
04:10which is unbelievable,
04:11with the definition of quits,
04:13and they wrote out the spelling of Cavaliers,
04:15and how to pronounce it.
04:17I mean, the Knicks were amazing,
04:19and they busted the wheel of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
04:22Like, you could tell, right?
04:24I mean, look at this.
04:25Look at this.
04:26But James Harden thinks they were the better team?
04:29After game one,
04:31all the Knicks had to do was show a fight,
04:33and that was a 3-2-1 Cancun situation.
04:35I mean, Kenny Smith didn't even show his pictures at halftime.
04:39He put on a top pack, got a cane.
04:41Shaq had one, too.
04:43And they started singing,
04:44New York, New York.
04:45I mean, that's it.
04:47The Knicks were majestic,
04:49and they made the Cleveland Cavaliers' fault.
04:53They stole their soul.
04:55And I don't think that the Cavs are going to get it back anytime soon.
04:58That's how grotesque that was
05:01if you're a fan of the Cleveland Cavaliers
05:03or sports in general.
