Nice “crowd”. Laziest defense chants. It’s like night and day compared to MSG.

FOH - a flagrant for that

Hmmm....Rose didn't get the 6MOY, I suspect Thibs won't get COY either which leaves only Randle for the MIP as the only award the Knicks wind up getting....unless they give that to someone else, too. Wouldn't surprise me if it went down that way.

They know it's futile.

This how we need to come out against Atlanta on Wednesday

Imagine Jokic and Lillard in the same team. They will average 160 points per game.

"Stupidly locked in" Jimmy Butler shot 25% from the field.
Randle shot similar figures too

Yeah, they are gonna be back to normal.

Bad coach, terrible system. No ball movement, no defense. Stupid iso plays all the time. I don't care its Dame and CJ, its not winning and its not nice to watch. Apart from the logos 3s there is nothing likeable about Dame's game. I'd rather watch Steph, Kyrie, Westbrook, even Ben Simmons ahead of him. I only rank Harden lower, he is the real unwatchable star. But Dame is close.

Dame is not going anywhere, especially in the Knicks. The guy will get exposed when he is being observed closer. Lack of vision and significantly less assists, can't move the ball, can't rebound, not athletic, mediocre handling skills, he ain't even close to the guys like Kyrie and Steph, can't post, can't play defense.

He is scarily clutch, I give him that. And he is the third most dangerous player when hot behind Klay and Steph. But apart from the clutch and the hot moments, he's got holes in his game. And they will be pointed out in NY or LA. That's why he is staying in Portland. He needs those ads and that reputation.

The guy was -16 yesterday. -16. And he was hot and unstoppable most of the time. Just not a winning player. He's a combined better version of Bradley Beal and Joe Johson. But that doesn't rank him anywhere near top 5 guards in the league. And some people are putting him on the top... jeeez.

this was a brutal game for portland. Lillard was insane and everybody else sucked.
Nurkic, Melo, Powell (don't let the 5-9 fool you, all garbage time dunks), Kanter were all horrific yesterday.
Even CJ was bad despite a 21 point / 9 - 12 game. his turnovers and defense cost them.

that said, just 1 game. onto the next in Portland, tied at 1.

Jokic scores 38 in a W

Dame takes an L

And you dare say I'm cursed?
