NY Knicks Sweep Cavs: Are The Knicks The Best Team In The East Or Did They Get Lucky?

Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss if the Knicks are the best team in the east or if they just got lucky and if the Cavs should fire Kenny Atkinson.

The New York Knicks dominated the Cleveland Cavaliers as the Knicks swept the Cavs 4-0 in the 2026 Eastern Conference Finals. The Knicks consistently outplayed Cleveland with efficient three-point shooting, aggressive defense and dominant play. The Cavs struggled to keep up despite efforts from Donovan Mitchell. In Game 4 last night, New York capped off the series with a 130-93 victory while setting an NBA playoff record by becoming the first team ever to win three series-clinching closeout games by 20+ points in a single playoff run, securing a trip to the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999. How good are the Knicks? Can they win the NBA Finals? What happened to the Cavs? What do we think of James Harden? Will the Cavs fire Kenny Atkinson? Should they?
