Re: GT: Knicks vs. Cavs | MON 10.28 @ 7:30p on MSG
Am I the only one that is flabbergasted by how KAT is being utilized in this offense? This dude is a 20 and 10 guy. He's setting picks and no one is looking for him. Brunson is just waving him off half the time. Not sure what the game plan is here.
Fire Thibs!

really good 1st half
our rough 1st qtr shooting and some sloppy turnovers but we have controlled the game.

Ending up with a jHart wide open corner 3 coming out of a setplay not okay.
Also kat needs more takes
Offense is going to look clunky early on in a season.
Gonna take 20-30 games at least before there is any chemistry.
Good thing we're a patient group.

We haven’t been forcing it to him. Can see it is doing that second half. He’s another form of offense. Problem is the bigs clogging paint.

Hart needs to hit his shots consistently. He’s the X factor. When he’s hitting his shots we’re unstoppable offensively

I wouldn't be too worried...cavs two best defenders are the center and PF. They have really bad defensive perimeter players...it will be the guards that do most of the scoring vs Cavs.

Knicks have balance. Ihis is actually great to see instead of 1 or 2 guys hogging the ball

Brunson definitely needs to work with KAT more. Even if its bringing Allen on him, which he doesn't want, it'll open up opportunities for KAT to pop. Brunson is definitely a great player but his playmaking needs to get better (probably will get better as the year goes on.)
I especially don't like it that his shot seemed off and instead of taking the few next plays to setup KAT on the PnR, he chose to force the issue a bit more.

Does not look like a rookie on defense. Can’t seem to rebound for anything, but his ability to slide around and go vertical without fouling is impressive.
