Not a huge sample size but Knicks have looked better without Brunson

Siakam Jordan!

Van Gundy’s hatred of the Knicks is embarrassing

It is a lineup that can atleast match the Pacers speed finally, and I think that is why it working but for how long is the question. Now OG is back to matchup up with Pascal
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

I thought siakam was going to get punished for bringing the ball down to low, but nice recovery

KAT was the primary catalyst for MIN upsetting DEN last year. He is in the clear IMO


Matchup specific backed by Gobert and Naz as well.

Just watching him this series…so many dumb fouls, bad shots, awful defense. He has actually had a nice sequence since I posted &&&& about him though!


And now he is taking over the game

The Pacers look terrified to shoot open 3s. They keep passing them up and passing it to a defended player.

They have but it also feels like he's playing right into their hands by stopping the ball movement a lot.

“The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”
