Injury Updates and more to come

I think for game 1 I'm mostly concerned with the defensive rebounding. We've been getting killed there the last few weeks and Capela is such a hard cover for Noel (way stronger) and Taj (way bigger). Hopefully we can clean that up or its going to be a LONG series

Payton will finally get playoff experience.

You don't have to play Frank any more than you do Obi/Elf. Just take the weighted training gear off for the postseason. We have this week to get everyone used to the new rotation.

starting with elfrid and taking him out is like taking the weighted training gear off every single game

Thank you for getting us here, Julius Randle.

Knicks can't afford to waste a home game against this team by starting Payton.
This isn't the Celtics B team.

I get that Thibs may not have thought that we had mastered ss enough to just leave it on all of the time, but this is our week before the cell games. Let's get these boys into the hypertonic liontamer and roll into this series ready to stay super saiyan from here on out.

One great thing about living in Atlanta. No Hawks fans and easy tickets! Game 3 and 4 here I come.

Thibs going down with his first mate Payton. Payton still has the negatives from the trip to Thailand with Mills and Perry.
