This was reasonably interesting. Washington Post basketball writer:

He has Donovan Mitchell at #27, Randle at #58, Brunson at #63, and RJ at #72. Giannis is his #1 player, with Curry #2.

Stopped reading when I saw he has Randle rated higher than Poole.

Poole's something like 5 for 40 since Tyson JR went at him. Given they just gave him a 100M plus curious how long before Draymond's sent to GREENer pastures.

Eagerly awaiting the disappointment

This is all thanks to Randle getting robot open corner 3s

Would you trade Randle for Draymond?

Without Randle's godlike ability to guide RJ's shots after they're released, the poor robot would shoot 0% from the field and free throw line.

It's not the same thing if it's not at the Garden.

The Knicks should always play the opener at MSG when they're not completely awful.

Excellent preview for tonight’s game. Keys to the game:

eFG%
Assists per game
FT%

Watching it now. I love KFTV. JD is prob my fav local NY analyst

I hope Deuce is guarding Ja a good amount tonight. Not worried about Bane taking advantage of Brunson if Thibs plays them together.

I'd be shocked if Deuce got any minutes whatsoever.

If Deuce is in the game then someone got hurt.

Multiple people. Several. Might take a bus accident on the way to the arena

This fcker worked last time. Good luck charm for the game, your favorite Knicks fan Q2N8

alright was this actually q2n8?

Yeah he's well documented on here. Put Q2N8 in the search bar and enjoy! Dude irritated people regularly. As far as the photos, first he put up a picture of himself. Then he was found at a Detroit game with his mom. There was also an MS Paint drawing of him probably done by BlueNOrange. I'd love to see that one if anyone has it, scoured for it and couldn't find it. Ultimately he got the ban hammer.

They just need to make it difficult for him so that he doesn't go off. He can get 25 as long as they make him work for it. Honestly the Knicks have no one on this team that can guard guys like Ja and hasn't had it in years. It's the Knicks offense that will be most interesting against the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies has several key guys that will be out and these are guys that tend to drive their defense. The Knicks attack well and play efficient offensively they can absolutely win. Brunson will need to make Ja work on offense and be able to create openings for his teammates. RJ needs to keep doing what he did in preseason where he looked a step or two quicker than he was in previous years. Randle needs to be a bit more aggressive offensively than he showed preseason...get the ball, see an opening and just attack the basket.

I think Deuce can make it harder for him. He's got good on all ball skills defensively. I'd like to see it happen if Ja is going off.

Yeah but I can't see Thibs using Duece at all unless it's a blowout (either team).
