I think
Is nowhere as near a compelling story for a champion team than:
Just put 100% of the blame on him, and everytime a Knicks fan brings it up, everyone can shit talk trump.
Like that university that made everyone swear not to forgive a guy for centuries until everyone forgot the reason and kept doing it anyways. Or when a manager trades a major talent and fans curse their name for decades.
It would be funny, but it would piss him off so fucking much for something he wants wrapped up in is associated with the single loss. He didn't go because he liked the Knicks, he went to be associated with winners.
But even winners lose when trump supports them
It literally might be his fault. Anything happening in Manhattan is a logistical nightmare, and these playoffs have been some of the worst I've seen.
Now add the President on top of that and all the extra security, they literally fenced off MSG and used pepper spray to dispurse the crowed last night.. The players had to be patted down before being allowed into the locker rooms. A lot if athletes have pregame rituals and whatnot they do before every game and that got thrown off, I'm not surprised the Knicks started cold.
Yep, all that shit is part of home court advantage.
Everything is pretty much the same. trump basically took away home court advantage. For the Spurs it was already going to be weird
