Help it make sense...


Refs got bills to pay. :nod:

Small market team needs to be able to justify that contract and the NBA makes it happen?

Mitch turned this game around with a couple of huge defensive plays tonight.

today he was able to bump that average up to 3 in 10.

Winning 2nd round is my goal; beyond, for this season, is gravy.

This is a fascinating thing about OG.

He was picking off Giannis' dribble in the 2nd half. He must have deflected his handle or shot attempts a half dozen times after half time.

He disrupted GA by watching and playing the ball, NOT falling for feints and NOT trying to body up as much.

He was in a strong defensive stance and kept close range so GA couldn't just pop off a shot, but far enough to ball hawk GA's dribble.

Giannis' dribble is a vulnerability and OG exploited it. It was brilliant.

Precious only got 5 minutes tonight. Guess we have our 8 man rotation. Our bench did a great job tonight. Can't lie, held my breath every time Brunson was out.

Everyone on the team with positive +/-

Lilliard is more "popular" so he gets the benefit of the whistle. Refs don't respect Brunson and have absorbed the sentiment that its OK to screw NY over.

In the end it only makes us stronger though. We beat the Fugazy Bucks AND the refs.

OG 4pt, 3rb, 2ast, 4st, 2bl

RJ/IQ 53pt, 15rb, 20ast, 1st, 1bl

Box scores lie...watching games is where someone can see it.
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right
...you are a fan of your opinion not the team.

Damn, people were mad when posters weren't celebrating the Knicks' victory vs Detroit, but this is a much better win

IQ and RJ are good players. They just did not fit with our best possible lineup.
