Charles Barkley Says Game 3 is Must-Win for Knicks
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New York Knicks are up 2-0 on the defending champions and favorites to win it all in 2025, the Boston Celtics. After being down by 20 points in Games 1 and 2, the Knicks made impressive comebacks in both contests to head back to New York with only two more wins to advance to their first Eastern Conference Finals since 2000. The Knicks have a golden opportunity to close things out in front of their home crowd, but it won't be easy, as the Celtics have a tremendous road record at 33-8. It appears like all the pressure has shifted to Boston, and one could argue that it was always there, as they are the favorites to win it all. Game 3 is undoubtedly a must-win for the Celtics, but if you ask the NBA Hall of Famer and legend Charles Barkley about it, he doesn't see it that way. On NBA on TNT, Barkley said that he believes Game 3 is a must-win for the Knicks, not the Celtics. Former NBA player and Auburn alum Charles Barkley enters Neville Arena through the loading dock prior to a game between Oklahoma Sooners and Auburn Tigers on February 4, 2025 in Auburn, Alabama.

Photo by"I'm one of the few people in the world who have been in this situation twice," Barkley said. "... This gon' sound stupid. Game 3 is a must-win for the Knicks, 'cause Boston's got a better team," said Barkley. "This gon' sound stupid. Game 3 is a must-win for the Knicks" 🗣️ Chuck explains why from his personal experience 🤔 — NBA on TNT (@NBAonTNT) May 8, 2025 His colleague and fellow Hall of Famer, Shaquille O'Neal, shared the same sentiment. O'Neal mentioned how the Knicks winning Game 3 would put some serious pressure on Boston, as no team has ever come back down 0-3 in a series in the NBA. Barkley went on to prove his point by bringing up his experience in the 1993 playoffs with the Phoenix Suns, when his team trailed 0-2 against the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round. Barkley and the Suns ended up winning the series. The 62-year-old has a point, especially with Boston being the favorite in this series. No one expected the Celtics to be down 0-2, especially with the first two games at home. However, they are far from finished in this series. They have all the tools they need to not only come back from this series but still win it all and become the first team since the 2018 Golden State Warriors to repeat as champions. According to BetMGM, the Celtics are still the favorites to win the East at +150.

Olivia Miles transfers from Notre Dame to TCU, passing on 2025 WNBA Draft
Olivia Miles is transferring from Notre Dame to finish her college career at TCU. Miles announced her decision on "NBA on TNT" on Tuesday night and was talking to Candace Parker when she received a box from Shaquille O'Neal with a TCU jersey in it. "Very grateful to be going there, very excited," she said. The 5-foot-10 guard had spent her entire college career at Notre Dame and was a projected lottery pick in the draft, which takes place in New York on April 14. She decided last week to not enter the draft and instead pursue one final year of college. She entered her name in the transfer portal and was one of 1,200 women's basketball players to have done so since the portal opened two weeks ago. Her time at Notre Dame ended when the Irish lost to TCU in the Sweet 16 of the women's NCAA Tournament. "Words can't express how honored I am to have met, spoken with and played for each of you over the past four years," Miles wrote on social media. "Your support means everything to me as I prepare to compete my graduate degree. I know that the University of Notre Dame will always be a key part of my story." TCU lost in the next round to Texas. The Horned Frogs have had a lot of success in the transfer portal the last few years, adding 11 transfers to build the team from scratch. TCU coach Mark Campbell has helped revitalize the careers of Hailey Van Lith and Sedona Prince. Miles started all 34 games this season for Notre Dame, averaging 15.4 points, 5.8 assists and 5.6 rebounds. She has a year of eligibility left after sitting out the 2023-24 season while recovering from a knee injury sustained a year earlier. The decision to leave college for the pros is more fraught than it used to be now that college players can earn money from lucrative name, image and likeness deals. By staying in college, Miles also stands to benefit from a new WNBA collective bargaining agreement that could give rookies higher salaries. Top picks in the WNBA currently make about $78,000. Notre Dame will look different next season. Sonia Citron, Maddy Westbeld, Liatu King and Liza Karlen are graduating. Freshman Kate Koval announced she's transferring to LSU.
