Yes, I was there at the Garden last night for a classic b-ball game. Overtime....Knicks WIN!!!!
Not here to gloat, just to give my impressions of your team:
-- much hate in the Garden for Hayward. Every time Hayward touched the ball a guy in the upper level seats shouted "F*** You, Hayward!". Every time. Loud as hell. Wonder if it could be heard on your TV. "F*** You, Heyward!" There was also a "Hayward's A Virgin" chant along with your typical "Hayward Sucks" shouts. OJ Simpson could come to the Garden and wouldn't get ragged on the way Hayward was. Heyward really got abused by the Garden last night.
-- glad you Jazz fans got a look at Porzingis. The supposed "another Euro-bust" is anything but, right?
-- Gobert is a top, top player. Sitting in the arena last night I sure got a feel from the Garden fans that Gobert gained our respect.
-- Heyward actually played some good D against Melo, but Melo being Melo put up another "he's got 30?" and torched your team. He killed you and there was nothing you could do to stop him. The guy can score 30 in the blink of an eye.
-- we knew that Hood could play ball, but didn't know he could play that well. Great to see a guy have a breakout game and do it on the grand stage of the Garden. That's a career defining game for that young man. Three years ago Curry put up 54 at the Garden and that got his ball rolling. Not saying your man Hood is going to be another Steph, but to put up 29 at your first appearance at the Garden...man, you Jazz fans should be happy. That guy was giving us fits last night. We cursed him.
-- have to admit, Heyward hitting three free throws with 2 seconds left in regulation to send the game to OT in an arena that was loudly savaging him...classic Garden moment. Abused for 48 minutes and what does he do? Shuts us all up. Ice water in the veins. Clutch player. Great player. We were stunned that he made all three. We were also very impressed. Respect.
-- went to the game with a nephew who was wearing a Heyward shirt and surprisingly there were other Jazz fans at the game. Right behind us were two Jazz fans, on train ride home a Jazz fan...kind of surprised to see that of the 19,000 at the Garden there were some Utah fans. Good show. Support your team thousand miles away in very hostile territory.
Once again, not here to gloat, but, man, we needed that game (so did you) and we dug down deep and took it from you. But you came away looking pretty formidable. Heyward, Gobert, Hood....great players. But you still need a Melo and a Porzingis and then you got something. Until then....we kill you every time.
Great game, great show, glad I was there.
