Absolutely wanted to win at least one of these first two.😌 Hate seein' Mitch as the ops but the ops he most certainly is. Definitely saw some good stuff in the defending champs but lets pull it together πŸŸ πŸ”΅πŸŸ πŸ”΅

Still the "DEFENDING CHAMPS!!!!!!" 🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅πŸ’ͺ🏾🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅ (Tried to tell folk these sixers were gonna be a problem though πŸ€¦πŸΎβ€β™‚οΈ)

I don't which was dumber, Dolan allowing Mitch to go the damn Celtics (and trying to eff up KAT's contract) or those idiots sending Jalen Browns to the 76ers. I do know that starting tonight and for the WHOLE season, my team MUST be referred to as the DEFENDING CHAMPS LETS GO! πŸŸ πŸ”΅πŸŸ πŸ”΅

I haven't shopped at Target in years. Since they capitulated in advance regarding DEI. You should join me as they allow #ICE to use their parking lots to stage attacks in NYC neighborhoods like the recent shooting in Marble Hill Take your dollars elsewhere...

ICE used a Target parking lot as a staging ground to target immigrant New Yorkers and shoot a man in the Bronx. In the past, Target ended DEI, hid LGBTQ Pride items, and banned the SALVATION ARMY. Now they say there’s nothing they can do? Well there’s plenty we consumers can.

We should all celebrate and learn the immigrant story and cultute of Italian Americans and their contributions to our City and Country AND...."the only Christopher we acknowledge is Wallace." (And my little brother πŸ’ͺ🏾) #IndigenousPeoplesDay

Join us tomorrow when we march across the city against the preventable #violence that's plagued us for too long and on Wednesday when we come together to plan the next steps to preventing it! We can and we must! #humanjustice #systemschange #BreakingChainsBuildingBridges

This is what I also know: 1) some use criticism of Israel to mask their antisemitism 2) some intentionally equate criticism of Israel with antisemitism to shield the government from any critique And 3) Insisting that only one of the above is true is also harmful

You should be able to walk down the street, and be Jewish, or Asian, and not be afraid. Yesterday was a painful day, with two New Yorkers brutally stabbed. Communities are in painβ€”understandably soβ€”and hate crimes are up. And it's our collective responsibility to address that.

Sending prayers to the faithful on the loss of The First Lady of the Nation of Islam, Mother Khadijah Farrakhan who spent decades instilling a sense of pride, beauty and confidence in Black woman across this country in the face of so many messages to the opposite Rest In Power

Learning about decade long silent & powerful homage by Lumumba Vea to Patrice Lumumba who Malcolm X called "the greatest Black man who ever walked the African continent" Newest pose a reminder of one of the world's worst humanitarian crises largely ignored righ in the DR of Congo #fifa #worldcup

I didn't even see the last second. As SOON as Wemby let that three go without being fouled I went ballistic!!! Thanks to my daughter Amelie for not just screaming at the top of her lungs but also capturing that @ny-knicks.bsky.social moment!!! 🀣 "We Will Find A Way" --NYC 🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅πŸ’ͺ🏾🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅πŸ’ͺ🏾

KnicksNation, I beg your forgiveness in advance: As hard it was to watch the refs play for the other team... ...I got to see Trump (just stay away man) boo'd more than the Spurs & get blamed for loss AND! I WILL be in NYC when my Knicks clinch this!!! Make no mistake, we will be NBA CHAMPS!!

My people, if you're at MSG tonight, PLEASE record the crushing level of boos headed Donald Trump's way I KNOW they'll try everything to not air it & James Dolan will absolutely comply, early & in advance So please record & share our NY Hello to #45 🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅πŸ’ͺ🏾🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅

Some clips of us drunk off the Game 1 win on Wed Night, or if you prefer delirious with Knicks Fever. 🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅πŸ’ͺ🏾🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅πŸ’ͺ🏾🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅πŸ’ͺ🏾 We bout to do it one mo' gain in Game 2!!!!!!!! Lets go @ny-knicks.bsky.social

I know folks are superstitious, but I'm callin' it. @ny-knicks.bsky.social in 5 (maybe 6) Truth be told, if we mess around and win Game 1, IN San Antonio....get...that 🧹 out. I said I what I said!!! #LetsGo!!!! 🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅πŸ’ͺ🏾🟠πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ”΅πŸ’ͺ🏾🟠

I can't believe we have to celebrate that Trump is backing off a plan for $1.8bil in reparations for Jan 6th insurrectionists. But here we are. Always remember that the #MAGA vision for a great America is legalized discrimination. Period. That's all.

As voting rights are gutted, the injustice in the South is echoing across our country. We can’t stand by as Black power is dismantled and diluted. It's a crisis for all of us, for all who believe the vote is precious. We do this work for our democracy and for future generations.

This is what happens when its Prom Night for your beautiful 17 y/o and you promised to see her off...aaaaannnndd it's game 2, the @nyknicks are at home and you have tickets. 😱 Thanks family for letting me live on Thurs and STILL keep my word🀣🀣🀣 #letsgo Game 3πŸŸ πŸ”΅ #playoffs
