The idea the Kat isn’t getting the ball with Reed as the only opposing big is crazy

Kat got repeatedly stood up by Tobais harris today, no reason to give him the ball.

I think it's more of a Thibs thing than Brunson.... but Brunson willingly doing it doesnt help

The ball movement was much better while Brunson was out

Pistons have held the Knicks to 26 second half points as Brunson decides to go 1 on 5 for 40% of the possessions.

Knicks ought to go with the big lineup - Mitch/KAT/OG/Bridges/Brunson.

And run more plays for KAT.

Come on, bring this home. It's been 17 long years since the last playoff win.

Yeah, the refs rigged it for NY by giving them 18 less free throws.

Oof.

One team is playing aggressive and smart and the other is trying to flop their way to getting calls. Fortunately the refs have only bit on a few of the flops.

Pistons are cutting off KAT feeding lanes and forcing the issue with Brunson. Like the Pistons did with Shaq/Kobe in 2004.

B2b years of this 7 footer getting locked up by 6'8 forwards (PJ and Harris).

Brunson is just dribbling way too much given how he has played today.

KAT has 11 shots. Like what are we doing here. He needs to get more shots

Reminder that Paul Reed was waived...

I hope Brunson snaps that big azz head of his so bad for foul he injuries his neck.

This makes feel so old because I acutely remember 03-08 when you guys were playoff fixture deep into the post-season.

IF the Knicks pull off the comeback here, it will go long ways in building their confidence that they are one of the top teams in the East... And the other way if they lose this game..

Who'll Win the Series?
