In terms of shooters, just need someone who is a sure shot to calm the other team down when they're starting to make a run. Like how Korver or Reddick were

At least we didn't get swept. We were the underdog
You had home court advantage and lost in five...
We were still the underdog
Well they were favorites in games 1 and 2 and then again last night...
For the series I believe Vegas had them as the underdog
Maybe they were. But they likely saw it going 7 as the Knicks were favored in 3 of the 5 games.
The Knicks weren't even expected to make the playoffs. So for them to get 4th seed was already a treat. I mean look at that team. It's mixed and matched like a mofo. Not even a consistent starting 5. They played the same way they did early in the season during that series. If I weren't a Knicks fan, I would've put a lot of money on a Hawks sweep regardless of what Vegas said. Sports book analytics lean heavily on the present, it almost never takes into account how much the same exact players sucked just six months ago and the likelihood of essentially the same team going back to its old ways. Which is exactly what happened to the Knicks.

Just saying having home court advantage and losing in 5 is pretty bad.
As a Sixers fan, I'm just salty we didn't get an extra couple days of rest! lol
Knicks are pretty good. They are really good defensively. I like their physicality. Offense is a different story though.

It is, but it's the 4-5 series with both team having the same record.
Defense can only take teams so far. Especially in an era where teams are capable of dropping 150 points any night. Gotta be able to keep up if the defense is failing. I don't know how a point guard has been an issue for about a decade and the best we could come up with is Frank Ntikilina.
Not gonna lie, was not a fan of Randle signing when we first got him... I super respect him now after this new contract. 114m for 4 years. Knowing your value, but agreeing to much less.... that is a guy who wants to win

He'll probably be traded. Almost $30 million is more than I thought he would get
