New York Knicks are ready for their playoffs series against Detroit Pistons, and so are their fans.

One of them is Stephen A. Smith, who boldly claims that the New York Knicks will play 14 postseason games this year:

"New York Knicks will play fourteen playoff games this postseason," Smith started.

Detroit Pistons New York Knicks	115-106
New York Knicks Cleveland Cavaliers	102-108
Brooklyn Nets New York Knicks	105-113

"Firstly, they will have to play seven games against Detroit Pistons to go through, and then they will play seven against the Boston Celtics," Smith said.

Smith says that he has no basketball-related reasons to justify that prediction, relying solely on his gut feeling.

"Knicks will take Celtics to seven games. I have no basketball reasons to justify that, it's just my internal gut feeling that it will take seven games before they eventually go home," Smith concluded.
