Tatum just isn’t clutch enough.

We have done a very good job shutting down OG who has been on a tear in the last month

Now, that's what I'm talking about.

Put Pritchard & Tatum in there, for the Final shot.
Subterfuge.

They can't Double them both.

Nothing is given."

If Al was playing in this game we'd be up 15 right now. There's nothing about this Knicks team that scares me at all.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

He’s had a great season but the Matchups tonight makes it look like he has cement in his shoes lol. Obviously hes not cracking the playoff roar tik unless theirs foul trouble or a huge lead. Overall he’s def overachieved this year

Put KP back in to start the 4th.

Can't freeze him because he's hot in this game.

I have been watching in my phone, this is going to end up in a nail-biter! JB hasn’t been good. Few other guys have been meh. Still doing well given Kat ate us alive in the first half. KP has been tremendous! White came alive!! Just hold on to your horses and we got this!!

Don't count your chickens. I still think we are playing well below our best esp with Jaylen not clearly right physically.

Pritchard isn't scoring but he's doing the little things on both ends.

I have no problem with JB trying to play through this. Besides his wrist injury, this will be his first injury like this for him. From what I’ve read it’s nothing very serious, it’s just pain management and from what I can tell he’s trying to adjust to it and getting used to playing with it.

How far is white from 350 or is that the record already?

Joe quick with this type of timeout. Guy in trouble, timeout.

Good timeout by Joe.

Sam was going to lose that ball.
