Best defense in the league?

They only got OG back this game, and Mitchell Robinson coming back soon. :D

To me he is the third best player in the NBA - Luka and Embiid are comfortably ahead of him.

This would be the equivalent of holding your opponent to 55 points back in the early 2000's. I may actually tune in to see the Knicks, just to see this elite defense. Thibs at it yet again.

I’ll say it again: the Knicks are the second best team in the East behind Boston. I don’t know why people continue to sleep on them.
