Everything wrong with the game in that review. I don't blame Brunson case he is reward. I just hope players like Brunson never win.

Cunningham has 28 points already with a quarter to go. What happened to the dreaded Thibs' defense?

Brunson is flopping on the ball , off the ball , on defence , on the bench , walking into the arena. Lord have mercy man it never ends

It's so annoying watching us shoot contested jump shots with less than 3sec on the shot clock basically every single possession

There’s a reason Brunson sucked in Fiba. His entire game is predicated on drawing fouls. He’s so annoying to watch

Jalen Brunson can only score when Thompson is not on the court

This is practically a replay of Game 1... Knicks down but within range... Will we see another New York dominance in long stretches in the final quarter?

From above the backboard angle, it looked like a kicked ball on Cade, if anything

Pistons up 8 going into the 4th and I give them less than a 10 percent chance of winning this.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

…. Up 8 entering the 4th. Cade needed to make that last one to avoid bad vibes.

If this is the whistle the Knicks get at home we're screwed, insane the way the Pistons are getting away with nearly everything and Knicks getting called for soft crap.
