Masai probably thinks he's the key to getting Durant LOL

That was a Knicks level 1st quarter and we're down 5. Not bad.

They need to start running different plays at the end of quarters

More than enough time to run a play there Lou. Against detroit he was making plays and not just waiting for along 3.

I have a great feeling about this game. Great defense to start.

Atlanta would never run a play like that with the last possession. That's why they're beter than us.

It was nice early in the season when Lou was hitting those 3s like mad even late in a quarter, but come on Lou, there's more to your game at the end of the quarter than just settling for a long 3.

Another anticlimatic Lou brick. Lowry and DD should be the only ones with free reign to iso at the end of quarters, this lou bull is getting ridiculous. And don't tell me its about ensuring the other team doesn't take a shot/score. It's a WASTED possession. No back screen action, no high pick and roll, nothing...

What is this garbage? I could already see him doing this garbage in the playoffs too.

ETA for when we're going to run an actual play to end a quarter?

Again turnovers and taking quick shots are not helping us. Our D has kept this game close.
