KNICK FAMILY!!!!! 7 game winning streak!!!!! We just came off of a overtime win - a win- IMO, that was top 5 out of the 22 wins we've had this season. Our Knicks played 3 games over the last 4 days and two over the last 2 days--clearly most of those missed shots were due to fatigue. YET, our Captain turned on the Big Body Brunson mode, dropped a historic 55/9/--18-31fg% --16/17 ft's--42 IN THE SECOND HALF; when it was pretty clear that he didnt have much in his energy tank. There was a moment when I started saying to myself- well, our Knicks are exhausted-I think we're going to lose this game. Reminded me of last December when everytime it looked like we would lose- our team willed a win...
Check out the post game thread for more... On to the next game... Game 33: Knicks vs Washinton G2-Mon: 12/30/24, 7pm
-NBA-TV Yep, we're back...Back to face the Wizards in the same arena... I'm going to make an assumption that our group will get as much rest as they can get today. I expect them to put the Wizards away early. Not to mention, the game is nationally televised

Can we put these guys away early and rest?
They have no answer for KAT, looking for a big game from him.
Brunson can clearly will this team to a win no matter which Knicks suit up.
Wouldn't mind resting OG and starting Deuce. Bring Dadiet in to get some bench minutes against this Wiz team.

In the OP, what does the Cam Payne legacy game mean?

Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau gave an update in regards to Robinson's recovery from ankle surgery in the offseason ahead of the team's game against the Orlando Magic on Friday.
"Overall, he's doing very well," Thibodeau said. "Still hasn't been cleared for practice, and that'll be the next step, and so he's getting closer to that. But when, when that is, I'm not quite sure. There's still some benchmarks that he has to get through, but he's done a terrific job. He's light, he's lean, he's worked extremely hard, so we just want to make sure we're patient and let him work his way through it."
Thibodeau also added that Robinson has begun to run but isn't sprinting, which would be another level for his recovery process.
Lets go! we're getting there Knick family...

There's a cliche about getting an injured player back is like a new trade acquisition at the deadline. Sometimes a cover for a front office doing nothing at deadline. But in Mitch's case it's going to be true. A real shot in the arm for the team.

I've always been a huge Mitch fan from his draft year...I see a different look in his eye..Since Kat came I sense something clicked in Mitch. It's almost like he has a unique appreciation for Kat that only a fellow big man could have...This will be Mitch's best season...
