Jose Alvarado couldn’t help but crack up when asked about James Dolan’s joking plea for no sex for 10 weeks during the NBA playoffs.

When asked by Dan “Big Cat” Katz on Fox’s “Wake Up Barstool” whether he abstained for that long, the starring Knicks role player laughed and dodged the question.

“Did anyone on the team take James Dolan’s pleas to not have sex for the entire playoff run?” Katz asked.

“Oh man. Oh, man,” Alvarado said with a giant laugh.

Katz jokingly scolded Alvarado when it appeared that he couldn’t quite abide by Dolan’s request.

“Jose! The boss told you,” Katz added, while everyone laughed with him.

“He said 10 weeks. He said sacrifice. We all sacrificed,” Alvarado eventually responded.

Dolan met with his team on April 3 before a playoff run that turned into an incredibly dominant ride in which the Knicks lost only three games and won the NBA title.

“I had this idea that maybe you should give up sex for the next 10 weeks,” Dolan told the Knicks before the playoffs. “You don’t have to give up sex for the next 10 weeks, but like Spartans — do you know what Spartans are? — They denied themselves to gain an edge. Get the edge.”

Dolan’s joke was part of a 15-minute speech to the team about sacrifice.

“Go home, talk to your wives. Don’t tell them you’re not going to have sex, and don’t tell them it was my idea,” Dolan added. “But let them know what this is going to be like, what your commitment is going to be like.”

Whether the team actually abided by Dolan’s request will forever remain a mystery, but Alvarado’s response to the question is even more intriguing.
