Terrible close to the half and 3pt defense. Live with them making 2’s. No one is even attempting them outside of Brown. Helping off has allowed so many clean looks..

Pathetic excuse of a city with such a "Championship Lineage". Sounds like equal amount of Knicks fans in that building.

Although Brunson will have to win 2 titles like Clyde, it'll actually be appropriate that it be Brunson.

Is is just me or is Boston looking like the underdog and the Knicks look like the more dominant team? Our players seem better than theirs. Even without Tatum, it's crazy how Brown and White look like their only GREAT players tonight.

it would certainly help if we want to actual defend there 3 ball.

they don't have enough shot creators out there to be sinking in. Switch and defend without help.

Brown is hot but you live with that.

derrick white getting a bunch of clean looks simply can't happen

Might play JB the whole 2nd half, or just Deuce for him with starters. But I wish Thibs had used Shamet and Wright a little before so he could try them now

One the bright side, we're usually down 15 at the half against them.

OG needs to remember how to score. KAT needs to play smarter.
