New York basketball is back! This is a Knicks team we can be proud of thanks to Thibs. Coach of the year in my book.

Weird. I un-spammed it.

I’m reading some Mavs fan commentary and a common theme is that the Mavs are just kind of soft. That physical teams push them around pretty easily.

That matches up with what I saw out there. The Knicks aren’t the most skilled team in the league but they’re definitely physical, there is really nobody in the rotation who plays soft.

Boy, I think the Knicks finished just fine.

Not really. They had trouble getting the ball inbounds, and they were rescued by at least one not great call when Randle was swarmed – otherwise it would have been a backcourt violation. And Noel sagged off Luka, allowing that 3, when…why? There were a bunch of miscues that could have hurt us. I wouldn’t call it luck, since we were the better team tonight, more prepared, more intense, so we deserved the win…but the execution still isn’t strong down the stretch.

I don’t want to get ahead of myself but I think we should let Payton actually run the offense here … his hesitation is ruining their D it would appear

I remember being somewhat startled by this same thought…

These are essentially the ’90s Knicks

If the Knicks could get up to the 5 seed, I like our chances against any possible four seed (except Miami) to win a playoff series. Imagine a year ago thinking that Julius Randle and RJ Barrett would be leading the Knicks to a tie for the NBA’s 10th best net rating.
