| 0:00.0 | Before the series began against the Cleveland Cavaliers, we made predictions, and we like to kind of keep record of not just our predictions, but anyone who makes a prediction on WFF just to see how we did. Otherwise, what's the point of a prediction? You say it on the radio, what, to waste time? And then we never hear about it again. So let's go through the roster. Let's start it off with Tommy Lou Gower. The old face of Knicks fandom here at WFAN. Tommy Lou Gower. The Knicks are going to make short work of the Cavs. This series is over in five. Five. The calves are soft. That's true. He talks in pauses, so I don't know what he said. That was it. All right that was it. All right. So, Nixon 5 for Tommy. He said short work. I mean, pretty close. No, he was close. Not too bad. Let's hear from my former partner, the great Joe Beningo. Sorry, when you said my former partner, I had like three people had to click three. I fully expect the Knicks to win this series in like five games. It would be a disaster, okay? Yeah. Disaster if they don't. Well, guess what they did? So Joe and Lugie both Knicks in five. Let's hear from our very own Tiki Barber. Tiki Barber. How are the Knicks going to do in this series? I think this is Knicks in 6 and it's 2-2. Yeah. Very wrong about that. Very. It's okay. Sean Morash. I don't see mine in here. Stop it. How'd you do, Sean? I don't see. I believe the Knicks will blow out the Cavs tonight, but it's Cavs in 7. At Madison Square Guard. What a fan boy. |
| 1:28.4 | Yeah, it's a loss. |
| 1:29.8 | What did I say? |
| 1:30.7 | I actually forgot what I said. |
| 1:32.4 | I believe we are looking at the Knicks eventually having a 3-1 lead, losing game 5 at Madison Square Garden, and then closing out the Cavs on the road to go to their first NBA final since 1999. So I will officially make it Nixon 6. Yeah, I'm off too. The only thing that mattered was closing the calves out on the road. Yeah, I got that part right. Got that right. So so far I would say Joe B. and Lugie leading in the clubhouse. Let's hear from Boomer Asiocene. You may hear him on mornings. I believe it's going to go six. And I'm not going to say it's a difficult six, but it's going to go six. He did pick Nixon six. Just to clarify, it was not the Cavalier. So he's with us by Nixon six. How about Greg Giannetti? A championship basketball team. They are going to come out. They're going to win game one by double digits. They're going to win this series in five games. All right. So three are close. At three or close. And guess what? They did win game one by double digits, even if they had to make an amazing comeback. Let's hear from Big Mac. Chris McMonago. What do you have to say? I'm going Nixon's 6 because I just can't imagine. |
| 2:35.3 | And part of me wants to say Nixon 7, but I'll go Nixon 6. Because it just can't be this easy. They can't be this dominant. Well, they can, Chris. They can. It was Chris McMonaco, his fat ass. Now, the winner of the previous round was Craig Carton. Let's see if his confidence was backed up yet again. |
| 2:50.6 | The New York Knicks will win this series in five games, if not a sweep. |
| 2:54.6 | This would be a non-competitive series, and the New York Knicks are going to the NBA finals. I think you've got to give it to Craig again. Well, I have to... He did qualify, even if it was five. Yes. |
| 3:09.2 | He's the only one who mentioned a sweep. |
| 3:11.8 | Okay, but he also said a non-competitive series. |
| 3:14.0 | But that's what gets him the edge from me. I have another piece of audio that I believe disqualifies Craig Carton. |
| 3:17.7 | Okay. |
| 3:18.3 | Because while breaking down Knicks Cavs, he also made very clear that there was one edge |
| 3:23.8 | that Cleveland Cavaliers had over the New York Knicks. |
| 3:27.2 | And for the self-proclaimed basketball savant that he is, I'm surprised how assonine this was. |
| 3:33.5 | The only advantage that I give the Cleveland Cavaliers, and I want to be very fair about this, Again, this is an objective reading of this series. |
| 3:42.0 | And even though I think Mike Brown did a great job against Atlanta |
| 3:44.8 | and obviously a great job against Philadelphia, |
| 3:49.1 | I think Kenny Ackisins a better coach. |
| 3:51.1 | What? |
| 3:53.2 | Disqualified. |
| 3:54.0 | Yeah, I think you're right. |
