^^^^dumbest comment of the year ward goes to you sir. The Knicks knocked the Heat out the playoffs three years in a row during the 90′s…did “history repeat itself” last year??? SMH, half the team that was there last year aren’t this year…Barron Davis (the starting PG for that series) isn’t even in the league this year dude…what THIS team does has NOTHING to do with last years team…..period.

Glad you guys think 1 games means something, cause I remember the Knicks beating the Heat in a similar way last season, but when it mattered in april they came up 3 games short and the trophy is in Mia. So before you guys get all hype remember history always repeats itself

I’m not Sid Rosenberg. That’s insulting. I’m actually a NY fan that can’t stand Sid.

The Sixers are going to the conference finals vs the Heat. Not the Knicks, not the Celtics, THE PHILADLEPHIA 76ERS! – mark down. Those other two teams are a 150 years old.

Somewhere in there are some coherent points, but MJ didn’t “whine or cry” about fouls? If he wasn’t smack talking his opponents, he was working the refs. I don’t mean that as criticism, but it is what all professional players do, the elite ones especially. To hold that against Lebron is a joke, you must ignore it when players you favor do it.

’72!!!! You couldn’t wait till a story about this game came out, could you? You were all ready to gloat about your overrated team winning, unfortunately they got humiliated by a team without 2 of its starters.

the question is was last night an aberration, or is this gonna be our knicks team for the year. well earlier i spoke about cultural change, its a quiet an subdued change that J kidds mere presents brings about. this team will not be the pushovers that they have been, simply because J Kidd won’t settle for less. so last night the stars aligned and the Knicks beat the Heat yeah right, believe what you will

Was a good win for Knicks and NY… 19 three-pointers won’t happen again though so enjoy it…. Sid Rosenberg aka cantonbitch13 thinks Heat ‘won’t do anything’ for the third year in a row. Predicting sports is not your specialty Sid, stick to your specialty: sniffing Marino’s underwear

I’ll give credit to the knicks for playing well
But the heat just plain were not into this game.
Enjoy the early xmas (gift)

1972wasalongtimeago is a D-bag in it’s purest form. You should be ashamed of yourself for your comments. Bet you wouldn’t run your mouth like that on 161st St. chump. The only that was given was some humble pie to the Heat. Eat up and enjoy boys.

Wow wow! Relax with the gift bs! Your biy lebron wants to be better then mj, wants to beat the 6 rings the 72 win season blah blah blah. Mj would of never gifted anything bc he was a beast and never wanted to lose. The ultimate competitor. He didnt whine and cry every time he got called for a foul or a non call like lebron, yeh its early maybe it was the nite for the knicks maybe it was the emotion who knows. But wait till they meet again and see what happens from both sides. Maybe it was an off nite maybe it wasnt, i hope it was just the knicks finally figuring it out, but to call it a gift is despicable! If you heat fans really wanna run your mouths abt gifts how abt that refereeing in the finals, how abt stern on his knees doin anything to get tv ratings, anything to get lebron his 1st ring, any real sports fan knew the refs blew every game of that finals did everything they could to help lebron win. That just shows you that he is not the best n never will be. All the superstars in the best didnt need to join a team with 2 other superstars n need the help of the refs to finally win, now all u heat n lebron fans just shut it! Hope the knicks are real and hope they win it all! Last night was great but not jumping thinking championship just yet.

This was Favre/Strahan 2.0. Just accept the gift, along with the quarter million, and say thank you. If you lived in NY, you would.

You’re a joke. You’re team got bitch slapped & we didn’t even have our second best player. Bottom line is the Heat won’t do anything this year. They’re going to need another lockout or David Sterns help.

Having Kidd makes all the difference to this team… Melo and JR were asleep before he arrived…

how can you say kidd isn’t a good defender. watch what he did to Kobe when the mavs swept la 2 seasons ago. hard a$$ d. keep underestimating.

It is great to see the Heat fans become a little humbled. They needed a dose of reality. Thank you for the “Gift” New York!

Biggest difference now and last years Knicks is with the addition of Kidd and Felton, the double headed pg monster is too much for Mia to guard, I always thought the Heats weakness lies with their pg and center position and NY has plenty of both in those positions, with Kidd and Felton providing dribble penetration and kicking out to shooters combined with Melo’s ISO scoring the Knicks can beat the Heats in a 7 game series, Lebron a great defender cannot be everywhere at the same time, Wade is a overrated perimeter defender and Bosh is soft on the inside.

Gift? That’s one of the dumbest comments I’ve ever heard. Give credit where it’s due,Knicks played great tonight. It’s hilarious that some Heat fans excuse for getting blown out is Miami let NY win due to Hurricane Sandy or that since Wade thought it should’ve been postponed that the Heat weren’t prepared.

You guys aren’t invincible and can and will be beaten from time to time. It’s ONE game still 81 left,so get over it and move on. NY was just the better team tonight but overall Miami is still better & that’s coming from a Knick fan.

Gift? Like when LeBron introduced Delonte to his mother?

I agree with you except for the part where you called Kidd a “great defender at his position.” Maybe in 2002, dude.

No. Just no.

Normally, you can act like an entitled brat thinking the Heat should and will win every game out there and get away with it by acting it off as a joke. But now, don’t bring a true tragedy into the situation. To say it was “your gift” should make you feel horrible. The Heat anf yoi especially are entitled to and own nothing. They lost, they were the inferior team tonight.

Joke around when the lives of people arent stolen away from them. Joke around when cities aren’t destroyed because of a natural disaster.

They do deserve something. Prayer and support. Don’t act like you helped in any of that because you think your favorite sport team lost on purpose.

Heat v Knicks in the Eastern Conference finals after Miami knocks out Boston in the semis would be great.

Glad the NBA hasn’t missed a step from last season. No major injuries and no player drama with their team and it will be a great season.
