Knicks traded Randle, Divo, 6 1st round picks, to eke out a win at home vs the Hawks.

Yay?

hawks are 19th rated defense - worse than us (15th)

they have a rep of being a good defense because they're athletic but they're not based on stats.

they're 13th based on last 15 games, so better of late but still

we have the 23rd ranked defense in past 15 games (eww)

stats are good but there is no stat for "how you play specific opponents"
ATL hates us with a passion- you would too if you were the home team and your arena turns into the opponents arena :lol:

Needed this and at least we faught. Thibs at least went 9. Only because it’s a back to back. Hope he continues to go 9. Interesting trade deadline.

Good game played by the team and well coached game for Thibs.

Best defensive game of the year. Team played a high IQ, high intensity game on the defensive end.

Well schemed and made a great effort to get out on shooters.

Min distribution was great tonight by Thibs, bench played well on both ends.

Finally under Thibs this team attacked Trae Young on offense and exploited the mismatch and made him play defense.

Quite fitting on MLK we beat Trae Young that is putting up civil rights era numbers and efficiency 8-)

Also, there's a lot of negative energy that level headed folks try to avoid. The game thread has devolved into a few folks smelling their own farts.

Brunson and Bridges = 24-35 from the field for 60 pts

60 pts pon 35 attempts with only 8 free throws made in total... Ma sha Allah!!

Ehhhh.. Hawks aren't anything special but they were playing well and just beat the champs. I consider this a solid win. It also showed glimpses of what our defense could look like and what a team with semi-proper substitution patterns could look like. The fossil made some adjustments and it's an inch in the right direction.

Knicks used every single asset they possessed to be the same or worse than last year.
