Didn’t need to keep shooting like that

Edwards is how they win

He had Brunson on him too, pathetic a big man takes a running leaning jumper on a guard 1 foot shorter than him. Take him inside.

I don't think you want to see that. Bad handles. Almost a guaranteed offensive foul if he does. The guy has very little floor game.

Well we need him to try, Brunson and Randle can't do everything. That's where we'll miss RJ as bad as he was at times he was our 3rd option and could actually go to him and he would attack and score at times.


I get that. You need another move to get a scorer. OG isn't a third option scorer. He' ll give you 16-18 as a fourth option. This was a typical OG game.

Get used to this.

Randle and Brunson will consistently have to play big minutes unless the Knicks are blowing teams out.

Yes, but offensively in some ways he hurts us because now we don't have a 3rd player who can attack and create. So now most of the offense has been Randle or Brunson going one on one it felt like. Hopefully OG was being this passive since it was his first game and he has some more selfishness in the future.

Trust me, you dont want selfish OG lol. He is at his best when he is a corner 3 sniper, when he puts the ball on the floor, bad things usually follow.

Brunson was off today so it was extra important he was that release valve for him today in the corner. Brunson found him like 3-4x

Front office needs to tell Thibs that we need Brunson in one piece

It’s almost like he doesn’t think the playoffs matter
