ended up winning as many playoff series this season as the Knicks did.

Even on a night when was about to make the kind of shot he did against the Pacers, Game 7 of Bruins vs. Maple Leafs reminded us, as if we needed reminding, about what a great moment any Game 7 in the Stanley Cup playoffs can be.

Sometimes you can feel how an arena has turned to Crazytown, just watching on television.

It was like that with Boston’s Garden the other night as the Bruins were coming back on the Maple Leafs.

All we’ve heard about for the past two years is to the Yankees and to the Yankees, and now it looks as if they might not need either one of them.

is better off not saying much to the media, because he doesn’t seem to help himself very much every time he does.

I assume the mock drafts for 2019 have already begun. I know “attitude,” whatever that means, was supposed to be working against him in this draft, but I kind of like it.

I liked his first-night quotes after he fell to No. 10 and the Cardinals, better, but I still like these:

“I would actually say that I’m not as angry that there were nine guys ahead of me, just three quarterbac­ks. That’s kind of what gets to me. So, there were three big mistakes ahead of me, but honestly, it’s a blessing in disguise. This is an incredible team that I think is really, really primed and set to do some incredible things in the future, and I think I just, very simply, lucked out.”

as my friend likes to point out, had one winning season at Stanford, for all those wringing their hands about

not leading USC to glory before he turned 21.

Speaking of drafts, our departed genius took

with the 8th pick of the 2017 NBA draft. went 13th to the Utah Jazz. We always used to say that the big Yankee starting pitchers needed to beat the Red Sox. But the same goes for starting pitchers in Boston.

And which Red Sox fan do you know who is brimming with confidence when faces our kids from 161st St.?

It’s still early — this actually is a rule they passed in sports, you have to talk about how early it is just about every time you make a baseball observatio­n in baseball — but

has to close out that Cardinals game with two outs and nobody on in extra innings. If the LeBrons lose to the Pacers today, how can anybody think he’ll still be playing in Cleveland next season?

Because it has come to this in the Cavs-Pacers series:

His most reliable wingman, at least going into Game 7, has been Harden has

has Or maybe Durant has Steph.

has Or the other way around in Philly. Who’s LeBron now building a dream on in Cleveland?

Apparently the new Phillies manager, has learned a lot more about baseball in the past few weeks, right? In the first month of the season,

has been more than Cespedes has been. Wanting to be your doctor is like wanting on your legal team.

Because at this point in Giuliani’s career, you wouldn’t hire him to fix a parking ticket.
