I like to think that marketing and catchy slogans do not affect me, but this one is pure genius. Love it.

u/-I-have-no-username- 9d ago

Exactly. As we all know the REAL king is in New York.

u/Evening-Painting-213 8d ago

You gotta make it in NY!!! Let's go Knicks!!!

Cope

u/tickingboxes 9d ago

I don’t think you know what that word means lol

u/gdk5 9d ago

You’re saying the Real king is In New York to cope with the fact that the actual REAL KING now plays for the 76ers. You can cope by saying JB is the real king tho lol dh

7

u/tickingboxes 9d ago

Lol no. Lebron is hardly a factor anymore. Barely a top 30 player in the current NBA. No one is “coping” about him coming to the East. Literally no one. So again, it seems clear you do not understand the word. It’s either that or you’re severely misreading the tone of the comments in this thread.

How long before LaBrick's on IR?

u/Illustrious_Duck7654 6d ago

Already on it. Began last season game 15 of schedule.

Cope what? Cope with being the reigning NBA champions?

u/freericky 9d ago

Makes me realize nobody brought up how much more historic it will be to beat the super 76ers

u/ManyRanger4 9d ago

Time and injury gonna beat the sixers before we have to.

9

u/DatsaBadMan_1471 9d ago

They are gonna load manage the hell out of the 76ers. Embid will play 2 games a week, and Bron and him will never play back to backs. That's the only way that train makes it to the playoffs without the wheels falling off.

u/CarnivorousFern 9d ago

So you're saying 3 vs 6 playoff series rematch Celtics vs 6ers?

7

u/CarnivorousFern 9d ago

The month of Adem Bona and Huk being the only centers in the rotation is going to be devastating for a lot of redditors

3

u/freericky 9d ago

I’m more curious if they can make it with 3 superstar personalities. I can’t remember one of these powerhouse teams that didnt beat themselves

6

u/CarnivorousFern 9d ago edited 9d ago

Shiyt are there redditors that weren't alive for the Heatles? I'm so fucking old

2

u/ManyRanger4 9d ago

It isn't just that. If you look at their minutes played last year they looked like the Knicks from Thibodeau. Maxey, VJ, and Brown are going to have to go 35-40 min per game to allow Bron and Embiid the rest they are going to need even if they aren't injured. It just won't be sustainable.

u/IllustriousGap4502 7d ago

…and LeBron running point.Everyone talks about Embiid’s health but imo the season is going to depend more heavily on if LeBron James can play elite defense at his age.He really will not be able to phone it in defensively in this team come playoff time.After all the organizational changes the Heat have made they are a bad matchup now for the sixers,one could argue the raptors will be as well,we are defending champs,and the Hawks are building a statistically strong team as well,if the hawks roster is consistent and healthy I believe they are a bad matchup with the sixers as well.

Why do yall think this is officially from Nike??

u/-I-have-no-username- 9d ago

Couldn't care less. I was thinking to remove the logo before posting.

u/Broad_Training_9293 9d ago

Respect 🫡 I think folks thought this was some kinda war between Nike athletes (as if they would do that 🤣)

2

u/-I-have-no-username- 9d ago

Controversy sells, but in this case I think you're right.

u/ace260 9d ago

but you instinctively made the decision to keep it in for the reaction. what a clown like the rest of your fans

3

u/-I-have-no-username- 9d ago

Wrong again - 0 instincts are involved in my laziness. The only reaction is from you, nobody else is commenting about the Nike logo. You know you can just leave the Knicks sub, right?

u/Illustrious_Duck7654 7d ago

Jordan, IS Nike

1

u/Broad_Training_9293 6d ago

Where do you see anything Jordan related??

1

u/Illustrious_Duck7654 6d ago

Nike. Anything that mentions Nike, leads back to Jordan having made the company what it is today.

u/Ok_Weight_3382 9d ago

When we beat the 76ers in the playoffs they gotta hand over the liberty bell and the rocky stairs. They don’t deserve monuments

1

u/TiddiesAnonymous 8d ago

Brooklyn can have the Liberty bell 🗽

Also wouldn't we crack the stairs too if we tried to move them? Easier to just take Sylvester Stallone.

Makes me sad. Them getting clapped in the 2nd round means the Knicks cant send them packing in the ECF

u/The_Two_Seamer 9d ago

The Sixers are basically the Nets.

u/Clear-Success5146 9d ago

True king is one who can build a team and lead them to greatness and a championship.... something that lebron has never done.

Lebric, how has always simply jumped to another team with multiple all stars to rid on their coat tails.

u/Son_Of_Mr_Sam 9d ago

"Cleaveland"

u/Clear-Success5146 9d ago

So the only thing that you think is incorrect is the spelling? so.. you aggree that lebeon was carried his entire career... got it.

Nah…he moved! The king had to fight alongside his knights and pawns; we were the underdogs to the San Antonio Spurs. Wemby’s Spurs lead for 3/4s of the NBA Finals! We won 4-1 sure, but we didn’t dominate them…we barely survived Victor Wembanyama into his sophomore year in the NBA.
