Let Giannis and Cleveland duke it out. Playing a series against Giannis wears on a team. I would be very happy to get Knicks in round 2.

They have just scored on him on four of their last baskets..


He’s not without his weaknesses but he’s played very well tonight and I’ve been very happy with him lately. He’s more consistent than Quetta.

I can't say you are wrong with that statement.

She'd feel a lot better if she had Embiid to slobber.

This is probably our best/most impressive win on the road for quite some time.

We have absolutely being superb on both ends and I think it's shown a line up for Queta and Kornet can work (in limited minutes)

It's being a Mazzulla coaching masterpiece tonight led by an MVP performance from Tatum.

Absolutely basking in the Knicks fan salt right now

Absolutely!

I don't know why Luke is still being questioned.

10 pts, 12 rebs, and 3 blocks!

For a 3rd string Center, that's very good!

This teams honestly looks better without KP. They move the ball better and KP is just so soft. If we could just turn JB into a 3 and D player, and make White the 2nd option, we’d go 16-0 in the POs

We look great on the road. A disappointment at home mainly losing to mediocre teams that we should beat playing with low energy.

Still need to find a way to see guys like Tatum and white be more aggressive with KP in the lineup.
