Respect to him for taking on the dunk contest when not a lot of capable players would. I hope he smiles though and doesn't look too nervous.

He should bring out Obi as a prop and they both do some crazy dunks or something.

That Lets talk Knicks Twitter page has a lot of videos from each game. I love it so it’s easier to find plays from the game

agreed

I think you do a good job with it

The Magic are tough and scrappy. Some good young talent there. No scrubs. They play hard.

Jalen is an All-Star. Simple as that. With Durant out he should get in. Even without that happening he should be in. He's the reason we're better than most expected going into the season. I think most predictions for wins were low to mid 30's. Definitely going to be better than that unless something catastrophic happens. Brunson in my opinion is our best player/playmaker. He's always under control and makes the right plays at the right time. At the end of games he should be the one with the ball in his hands, not Randle. That is better for Randle anyway to have a guy that can take that pressure off him that he forced too often.

A game they should have won and they did. Gotta keep winning now and move up the standings and stay out of that dumb play in tournament.

I don’t know much more I can take of Obi’s non-rebounding, no defense playing, fake hustle leak outs.

From what I can see, when IQ was going through a rough stretch he was still playing defense and attacking the glass. When Deuce is bricking he’s still making life extremely difficult for the opposition to get into their sets.

When Obi isn’t going 2-4 or 3-5 from 3PT he’s not only invisible on the court he’s detrimental to the success of the 2nd unit.

He seems like one of the nicest kids in the world but he’s charmin soft and I rarely if ever see genuine fight/grit from him.

The way he coasts through games at times is eerily reminiscent to Knox - our former eastern conference rookie of the month.

I don’t get why people stan for him. He’s one of the worst backups in the league

He's a good kid, but we gotta just let him go and chalk it up to Leon Rose nepotism. Knicks should have learned their lesson after we got tricked into taking Knox because of our "ties" tbh.

It doesn't matter what or if I had any expectations, that doesn't change what they are.

You seem to (deliberately) not want to set a measuring baseline, maybe because then you would have to defend it. You are arguing in bad faith....trollish behavior.

The fact that you think any baseline can ever be set in ever changing circumstances and that I need to defend it is arguing in bad faith and trollish behavior.

You have no expectations yet you complain if we are a 2nd round out....ok

This team is getting better in clutch situations which is a good sign moving forward.

[dakomish23]

Brunson is shooting 48.8% from the field in the clutch

Everything should be running through him during that time especially since he won’t force the issue

Truly captain clutch

[NYPiston]

Just want to chime in to say that Brunson is one of the most underrated players in the league, I'll never understand why "fans" trashed this signing as LOL Knicks etc etc. He does nothing at an exceptional level but he does everything really well and has a really high Basketball IQ which will always take a player far.
Ask Luka about how much Brunson meant to that team as they hover around .500 after a 52 win season and are an absolute gongshow with Luka off the court.

This is to counterbalance Randle's UN clutchness in those late situations. Randle should NEVER be given the ball early in the clock to Iso. It should be Brunson creating either his own shot or setting someone else up as that player cuts to the basket or is wide open. Randle needs to be a clear 2B in this situation and Thibs needs to enforce that.

Brunson for 2 straight possessions late after multiple Randle bloopers refused to pass out to Randle . It resulted in a Brunson drive and score and then a Brunson drive and dish to Sims for a dunk.

Especially after years of bandaids at the PG position.

We are 10 games under .500 at this point without him

Nothing craters a team more than having a bad floor general

Nothing elevates a team more than having a good floor general

Exactly this. Randle is NOT a floor general and should be playing off of Brunson more often ESPECIALLY in those late game situations.

I wonder how many games we lost because we aren't relying enough of Brunson to be the primary ball handler in those late situations.

That’s impressive, I do think a factor is that every single game the Knicks play seems to go down the wire and have opportunities for points that would be considered clutch while other teams win or lose games in blowouts more often
