Thybulle & RW3 active, let’s hope they don’t hurt themselves just running up and down the court

DC very active on the boards

POR starting off 1-6 from 3pt

Scoot 1st shot hits a deep J

Avdija already has 6 boards

Hurd calls these teams evenly matched, really?

POR is lucky they are not down by double digits, they’re shooting this quarter has been horrible, 27%

Once DC is out of the game, it is just a free for all at the rim for NY

Oh Scoot, that shot got sent back COD

I have seen enough of Reath, POR can gladly cut him in the off-season

Calabro lol, Murray has had difficulty shooting FT, really? He has had difficulty shooting in general.

I wish the Knicks were a bit better, would love to see them do a long playoff run. They're a fun likable team.

That said, I think they need a new coach. Thibs rotations are problematic for a full season.

Yeah, I already have seen some complaints from their players about, Thibs needing to play the bench players a little more, common complaint of teams coached by Thibs

It's hard to say if it's only thibs or the collection of talent is just another hodgepodge paper champion

One thing to notice, you put any sort of defense on Simons when he’s shooting a perimeter J, he’s more likely to miss it than make it

Not having watched NY this year, my first impression is that they are very good defensively, but struggle offensively, probably even more so with Brunson out, so I anticipate this being a close game

Sharpe is on this quarter, can he maintain it?

KAT has zero issues with DC

lol, Camara very unhappy with an offensive foul call against him. Now you know how everybody else feels dude

Yeah, that was not an offensive call on KAT, that’s ridiculous, he has every right to turn to the basket. He did not flare his elbow into Camara. This is why the NBA is a joke right now, the complete inconsistency of foul calls is ridiculous. If that was a POR player and roles were reversed, I would say the same thing.

NY margin of victory +4.5, on the road +2.7

Deni with another double double by halftime, 14-11

Deni 14pts on 5 shots

Simons 0 points on 5 shots

Sharpe 14pts on 12 shots

Pretty much sums up their worth in relation to each other, not even mentioning the boards, assist, etc.

Deni is 24
Sharpe is 21
Simons in s 25

I'm not saying Deni is gonna turn into doncic but if anyone on this team makes an all star team I'd guess it's probably him or perhaps toumani

Sharpe really needs to get to the line more, would be nice to see him getting at least 5 fta nightly

Could add Scoot to your comparison too now, he's having a nice efficient game so far

15 TO by POR so far

DENI to DC combo is nice

and there you go, Sharpe into KAT, just a basketball play, not an offensive foul & certainly not a flagrant, pathetic

Just awful defense by Simons there, then he goes ISO on the other end & misses

Murray is just a bad player right now, I don’t know if he will ever be a rotational player

Billups with a heavy 7-man rotation again, definitely not pivoting to the tank yet

Putting in Simon’s right now is disgusting.

Really late call there on DC

lol, Scoot with the merry-go-round basket

Scoot looking like the bucket getter at the end of the game

Wow, Sharpe in for Simons, Billups’ boy got subbed out?

Sharpe doesn’t do himself any favors by entering the game and taking an ill advised 3ot shot right away, that he misses, of course

POR 12-20 FT, Bill Schonely would not be pleased

Scoot is having himself a 4Q

Oof, KAT 3, oh my, then another. NY up by 6

lol, Simons comes into the game and Hart just shoves him

Scoot with a bank 3, lol, he has 23 on really good efficiency, 9-12, 4-4 3pt

That is just too easy by Bridges

WTH Scoot! and 1., 16pts in 4Q

This game is turned into the Scoot show

This is the Scoot we envisioned when we drafted him.

Scoot getting meaningful minutes in the 4th and even OT…. What’s happening in life right now?!

Honestly, if what comes out of this wasted season is that Scoot is able to come into his own of what he was billed to be pre-draft… maybe that’s enough?

I don’t get Simons, how is he so bipolar of a scorer. Dude can go for a 30 burger, than scores 3 the next game.
