W L or draw players like Josh Hart make you feel like you win regardless... that's all you can ask for players playing the right way, hard, and engaged...

We’re going on 5 seasons in a row where we don’t know wth to do against simple stuff like zones



I agree with this, but that requires deeper thought, we have posters struggling with the idea that overplaying guys could lead to injuries, so I don't expect those same people to understand the lack of adjustments. It would make sense that people that can't see that would be stubborn about a stubborn coach.

You're acting like Lebron has never had a bad game. We're damn lucky to have Brunson.

JB and KAT need to look at the way Josh is playing tonight, and let their balls descend.

Like I love Brunson and all, but he’s looking so bad and this team is failing to adjust to anything. This might be the most annoying game of the **** season to watch because we’re capable of playing so much better than this horrid bull effort (except Hart) the fans are getting tonight.

JB 6 TOs. JJ really worked his a$$ off to come up with this game plan. He even neutralized KAT.

I'm venting and brunson is obviously very good.

Embarrassing after all these years still getting clowned by Bron in the garden.

Why is there zero interest in defending the three-point line?
