I think the Deuce and Cam combo needs a nickname. They've been overwhelming opposing benches since before Deuce sat a few games. They're kinda the whole bench, but that also means it's just two PG's outperforming other teams' entire second units...Sims at least helps defensively.
Coming out flat on the last game of a road trip isn’t the end of the world but having it happen in both Salt Lake and Dallas should have lit a fire under their butts. Most of the games they’ve lost have been blow outs. With Boston, the Cavs, Magic, and the bucks surging and this team needs to keep pace. Our next 3 games are against the hornets, pistons, and raptors with things clicking it’s time to start banking a bunch of wins.
We are 8-2 in the last 10 games so I’d say we have also been getting the job done for the most part. Boston and Orlando are also 8-2 in the last 10, Cleveland 7-3, Milwaukee really coming on strong at 9-1. Not too bad though for a team with major new parts that is still figuring things out

Not that I’ve been mathematically tracking it but just checking the box scores every night, it seems like there’s a lot more blow outs this season. It might just be an nba thing that teams look really bad in losses and not just a Knicks things.

Ihart mentioned last season that he’s never been more prepared than playing for Thibs and he came from playing under Lue. He has his flaws but he’s a damn good coach

I’d have to agree, there seem to be fewer close games these days just from my perception

And now that that player's gone the Knicks are putting up historic numbers on offense.. almost like people were right and those people that were defending the former player didn't know what they were talking about.
Look at how the other team that lost KAT for Randle has devolved.
Pretty much every high usage player on our offense is a high level efficiency scorer now. Add in almost every one of them is not really a ball stopper but willing passers too. This combination has lead to historic scoring numbers per possession.
This is the kind of offense I've always wanted, not one centered around a player like Randle or Melo which leads to watching one man dribble the ball and is mind numbingly boring. This is now sometimes exhilarating with no one person being a primary option. This is hoops.

I think KAT and Brunson will still be the lead dogs followed by OG and Bridges. Hart will be the do it all and fill in when necessary guy. However the scoring variances will not be drastic as it has been in years past.
Brunson 23-27pts a game
KAT 21-25pts a game
OG 16-20 pts a game
Bridges 16-20 pts a game
Hart 12-16pts a game
McBride 11-15 pts a game as the primary bench scorer
Payne 9-13pts a game
