Our offense looks good against teams with weaker defense, we struggle when teams game plan for us

Happy for Payne. I wasn't the greatest fan of his signing, but if he's there, use him. He's hasn't looked the same since that odd benching. Playing too tight. He's been looking looser recently.

Knicks win = Bucks washed
Knicks lose = Knicks can't beat good teams

Karl is one of the best big men I've ever seen play. He was seriously being held back in Minnesota

Usually he's in the middle of missing 20 games right now so fatigue is understandable

I feel like the Knicks biggest issue offensively is that they don't have a true secondary creator. Fans complain about Brunson ball hogging but no one else in the starting 5 can do a ton off the dribble. Mostly a bunch of straight line drivers and catch and shoot guys.

Real key is Thibs facing off against equally mediocre Doc Rivers

Neither team looks any good on defense
Basically, we're trading buckets
Our primary edge is we are outrebounding them significantly on the defensive end and have limited their second chances more than ours

I think with fresh legs this team is the same one who went blow for blow with the Thunder in their first meeting.
