It is inevitable that Raptors will come back when Knicks fatigue becomes an issue due to back to back, and we have Brunson to make it like fugazi.

KAT double twenties but rather quiet in 4th quarter.

Hart saves his energy to score all the points in 2nd half.

Mikal proved he's made of rubber, his ironman streak continues.

Precious has a good game against his old team.

Payne good despite the shots aren't falling, Mcbride is rather quiet.

Hukporti having his best game in Knicks uniform after blessed by Dolan, or Thibs may wonder if Shamet can't make 3s now why don't bring a bigger guy who can d up and rebound instead?
Are you fans of the team or the player?

No way in hell we should’ve needed starters out there for the final 8 mins. We were up 20+. Very poor showing in the second half.



We were up, but we were up very early, playing tired on the 2nd game of a back to back.....I expected the Raps to make a run. We did fine.

Hukporti had a nice outing this time, gotta compliment it since i dissed his last game

Brunson did it again. Great game by towns as well. Good win on the road against a team that was hot and 2-0 without OG holding down the fort while he’s gone

Trade Deadline is Thursday at 3pm and Knicks don't have a game until Saturday. Then there isn't another game until a back-to-back on Tuesday and Wednesday next week.

So are we going to make a trade or not?

Sims played 11 seconds yesterday and 10 seconds today

Huk played a ton of minutes yesterday and today

Mitch is cleared for contact

I will be really surprised if all 3 of them are s till on the team after the deadline. At least 1 of them will be gone right?

Yes. Sims needs to be moved in order to be able to sign buyout guys when they happen. They literally need to get him off the roster for this, so he's going to be moved, even if it's for almost nothing.

KAT showed up big time with a 20-20 game.

Brunson might be best closer in the sport.

Hart took some time to warm up but showed out in 2nd half

Mikal impactful on both ends of the floor

Got nice contributions from Precious+Hukporti

Need more in a game like this from Payne and Deuce.

Please find me a wing Leon. Just someone that can give up 10 mins or so. Damning Shamet on a b2b can't even get off the bench.


I remain unimpressed with Deuce. I actually thought Payne had more of an impact then Duece.

The Raptors defenders should've known Jalen Brunson was gonna pull up for the 3 from that spot. As soon as he went to that side, I knew he was going for that. I don't think a lot of these players watch game clips.

Thibs put Sims in for 10 seconds so that he can say he played a 9-man rotation.

Sims is clearly done in this town, Hukamania running wild is in it's infancy but showing signs of life.
