Alec Burks was the hero. Played 2 way ball tonight. Locked up TJ multiple times.
Got an active 6’6 6’10 wingspan body we can trust now. This is amazing.

Starks was ready to lead the fastbreak. At one point was almost out there telling everyone to get down the court. Love his energy.

Thibs “This is our way”
Knicks was also no celebrating at the end of the game. All business. No waving bye bye like Haliburton. Who btw got put in jail by McBride. I’m not sure. If Thibs did Something off ball as well but it was just jail.

Thibs did a masterful job! I think he finally figured out the right timing with Deuce, Burks and Precious...
I always knew - all we had to do was put deuce on Hali. Hali scored most of his points off wide open shots...
He has been great this entire playoffs, its Spoelstra-esque
That adjustment to full court press them back so they got into their offense late, particularly when TJ got in the game was

So that was pretty sweet. IHreart Jesus, people wanted you gone SUN. Regardless, Team can get a nice rest, go for the Jugular, get another decent rest. Beat the C's in 5.
There's something about an underdog that really inspires the unexceptional.

Re: Game 5 PG Thread: Gut Check
Here's the adjustments I called for this morning in the game thread:
Thibs executed on pretty much everything. Glorious coaching!
Adjustments:
Start McBride over Precious
McBride should hound Haliburton full court
IHart on Siakam
Hart on Turner
Hart or DDV or McBride should bring the ball up
Brunson should set picks for DDV the get Hali switch
Don’t crash offensive boards 1st half at all
I don’t expect Thibs to make many changes however… let’s see…
