The Knicks will beat the Sixers in five games

Well, the Knicks just collect after game three and they've beaten the past three games. They won by 25 plus and they just have a better team overall. [They're] gonna win in five. [They're] gonna fucking kill him.

The Knicks have to be thinking they might be the best NBA team of all time right now

The Knicks look like they're just going to — it's gonna be a cakewalk for them to the NBA Finals. New York is actually thinking right now, like, there's a chance that we might be the best NBA team of all time. They've been doing that — shooting 65% from the field, 50% from three — repeatedly. It's not just one night.

The Knicks did not win the championship in 2025, so if taken literally this is incorrect, but the framing was always wry/conditional.

The Sixers will beat the Knicks in seven games

I'm rooting for the home team to lose every game. I want every fan to be upset at the games. So, I guess would be Sixers in seven. Yeah. I'm rooting for a seven game series and I guess Sixers and seven. 'Cause that would mean they win at home or at on the road.

Prediction Basketball Medium

Hank predicted the Sixers would beat the Knicks in seven games. The New York Knicks swept the Philadelphia 76ers 4-0 in the 2026 Eastern Conference Semifinals, meaning the series did not go to seven games and the Sixers did not win.
