In all seriousness kat has been nice defensively this series.


He’s been ok, I like the fact Thibs had him play some 4 with Mitch and he put in maximum effort.

Well guys I think we showed some legit toughness this game and fought through some bs to get the w. Job well done. Let’s take the next one and really make these fake tough guys fold. Oh and btw my 11 year old was laughing at reed trying to push Robinson said it looked like his little sister trying to push open a locked door.

It shouldn’t have come down to that in the first place but seeing how they actually did handle that situation was terrible.

Anyways, we still need to be better especially keeping leads and building momentum. So many opportunities to blow this one away and yet we kept shooting ourselves in the foot time and time again just allowing them to stay in the game. An elite team would have out the Pistons away long time ago. We are just showing that we are far from it and closer to Detroit than we are to the best teams in the league.

We got KAT going early like I had requested.

KAT was tough tonight and fighting for position, boards and defending.

Great game.

Always Feed The KAT to start the game. Every game.

This series (and next) is strictly for evaluation purposes. Who should stay and who should go.

Biggest adjustment was made by Brunson.

He was probing the paint to draw doubles and triples and then finding open guys on the perimeter.

Normally, he'd be in the paint with every intention of shooting, but tonight he committed to luring the defense towards him to create space for his teammates.

I'm concerned about Mitch...its not good how he looks. He's not competitive out there.

We don't use our bench for production. I really don't know why we have one.

No one is going to talk about Duren walking along the sideline on his inbound pass to end the game, the same way Hart did in Portland, and the refs refusing to call it a violation against the Pistons and give the Knicks possession?

He rarely had good position. He was not trying that hard. He sucked.

If Mitch had been any good we would blown them out.

I made it a point to focus on Mitch. His box-outs were horrific. Other than a few putbacks he was fairly useless out there. Pretty disappointed in how badly he played.

The team played so much better and they deserved the win, but they need Mitch to wake TF up.

At this point, give Precious some minutes if Mitch can get it together.

I'm glad you see. If u solely watch Mitch he's just getting moved around the court and doing nothing. If we had a decent center KAT can help on defense while the center can stay in the paint and guard/boxout Duren.

I don't know why the coaching staff doesn't see this. They have to tell him to play his role and fight for position and the ball
