Not just a scorer. Not just a leader. He’s the heart of the team — the kind of player who elevates everyone around him. His work ethic, poise, and passion set him apart. There’s something special about JB — and everyone can feel it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Captain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jalen Brunson Folkssssssssss JALENNNNN BRUNSONNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yet there are still dorkwads on the GB who think the Pistons have the best player and Brunson isn't a playoff performer. Like, how many times does he need to kick people's teeth in?


Also,

they don't even have the 3rd best player

I loved what KAT said about his game. He said people didn’t expect what he did from a guy who can’t play D. Then laughed.

KAT with 2 clutch defensive stops. Told yall don't say **** about him this game. He showed up!

He was incredible in his first game for us

KAT played under control. No foul trouble, good defense. Drove and passed the ball when in the past, he would get called for charging.

Duren seemed kinda shook too. How many 3 second violations did the guy get?

3 times, the difference of experience shows here.

[Handledatruth]

We survived a Tobias Harris and THJ sighting. I'm good with this win. These dudes show up every 3-4 games

[matchman]

We were dead in the water when Hart hit the 3 from the top

Hart functioning again and our team is back to life.

He clamped jokic last year, so I had a feeling it was coming

[Guano]

1 win down only 15 more to go.

Also,

everybody hates the knicks. we will all bite the dust but that narrative will never change. just embrace the villainy

JB gotta realize man, we have a TEAM, stop iso’ing
That falls squarely on thibs to call plays to make him come off the ball

He's executing 100% the offense Thibs wants.

Randle caught sh*t for the same thing.

This is why you can't get too harsh on Brunson who is still our best player even if OG and KAT are up there too.

Young DRose set Thibs obsession with attacking guards in stone. He considers play action to be what happens when the guy forcing the action can't get a shot off. Brunson happens to be so elite at it that it often does make up for Thibs having no other offensive plays to run for his lead guard's other teammates.

You don't really get your number called in Thibsland. You just try to get open for your teammates and take your shot when they pass you the ball. Ball motion in this offense is a reflection of how our team is relating to one another on the court, not due to anything designed by the coach. When they look for each other we tend to kick ass because we have lots of scoring talent on this squad. When we don't we rely on ISO to win. ISO alone won't win a championship. As long as Thibs is the coach it falls on the players to play selflessly for each other.

Thibs coached a good game today. I don’t like him as the coach for future seasons but I’ll give credit when it’s earned.

1 win down only 15 more to go.

One minute you're Thom Yorke, the next minute you're NYK Mentality, minus the gun.

[LFGK]

So we aren't losing the series? The team doesn't suck? The team D isn't garbage? KAT isn't useless on the defensive end?

OG had Cade in hell, you saw it from the tipoff, they (he) won't let him go off.

He played Cam more and Bridges less so he gets credit for doing something he doesn't always do which is keep the player doing well on the floor

[Clyde_Style]

OG has become my favorite player of late

He has become our best 2-way player without a doubt. That's something I put real stock in. This guy is balling

He also gave us lots of Mitch and KAT minutes and featured KAT a lot when Brunson was off the floor. We need to feed KAT and OG even more and that’s on Brunson and Thibs. Baby steps.
