NY has 112pts after 3. Might be the highest I've ever seen personally. They're up 33

Ja Morant the next Westbrook, but just sooner in his career?

At least Westbrook gave 100% almost everytime he was on the court. I think Westbrook has had a way better career.


The Westbrook Morant comparison is not good for a lot of reasons, but man Westbrook's shooting did fall off a cliff around 2018. I've never seen anything like it. He went from shooting mid 80s % from free throws for like 7 seasons, to mid 60s for the last 7 years. You would think a player who could shoot mid 80s FT for almost a decade wouldn't fall off so hard on an uncontested set shot.

I know the Nets are a G League team, but sheesh, the Knicks offense just looks so fluid and right now.

Not to turn every game thread into Ajay Mitchell praise but another great night for him: 21 points, 6 rebs, 4 asts, 3 steals on the most stacked team in the league is impressive for a 23 year old.

Can't believe OKC has him on the books for only 3mil/year through 2028.

Ja shot 2-7 from 3 in this game so that means that Ja's 3 point percentage on the season is about to go up.
