Seems like players have forgotten what it’s like to have a full-throated crowd going nuts at a playoff game… going down to the wire.

Madison Square Garden in New York hosted one of the larger NBA crowds… seen since the league was shut down in March last year.

Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young dashed the hopes of New York fans after he hit the game-winner with 0.9 seconds remaining against the Knicks.

Players on both sides put up a fight, but Young has become the knicks’ biggest villain… silencing the home crowd that were chanting against him

He netted 32 points in a 107-105 win in Game 1 of the first round… a blow to Knicks fans

Who have been in a frenzy throughout the second half of the season… after they made the playoffs for the first time in 8 years.

Young has joined LeBron James as the only players with at least 30 points, 10 assists and five rebounds in his postseason debut.

Game 2 is scheduled for Wednesday… back again at Madison Square Garden, where the Knicks will try their shot again to win their first playoff game… in just short of a decade (It’s no wonder fans are screaming out of their seats)

Trump claims Iran’s military largely neutralized; tensions rise with attacks threatening air travel and oil shipping.

President Trump says Iran’s military capability has been largely neutralised, including its navy and air force, as the conflict in the Middle East intensifies. Iranian attacks have threatened commercial air travel and oil shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears of wider economic fallout.

The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh has faced two attacks, while Gulf states worked to intercept further Iranian strikes. Officials report six U.S. troops killed and more than 700 deaths inside Iran as the exchange of fire escalates.

With global markets watching closely, the region remains on edge as military and diplomatic tensions show no signs of easing.
