I’m guessing that DRose will be back in the rotation in come capacity if Brunson is unavailable. Especially because we’ll be in Chicago for a few days. It would probably mean a lot for him to play.

Watched the… Pelicans game. I’m a believer.

And it made me think, all the Knicks really need to do is 1) win the lottery before a transcendental draft; 2) trade their superstar at his peak for a mighty haul of excellent players and a plethora of picks; 3) win some other trades too; 4) hit on all their 1st and 2nd round draft picks; 5) sign a bunch of undrafted guys and have them be major contributors; 6) hire a young coach from the Steve Kerr coaching tree; 6) avoid free agency altogether. Voila.

I can’t imagine why the Suns would want to trade Mikal.

Early Bird,

There’s a lot to be happy about right now. We were waiting and hoping for the defense to show up once Grimes and Mitch got healthy and it has. This is not a bad team and it’s very young. Just remember this when we have our next bad streak (and we will). 😂

Director NYC,

That’s an interesting trade to think about because I’m not sure what I would do. Short term it would make us better and keep us young. I’m not sure it works for the Suns because they want to win this year.

We’re also tied for 6th in point differential among east teams.

The Invisible Tomy Harding is part of it, but we’ve been beating the last few teams by wide margins. It’s not like we’re eking out victory.

Strat, I was thinking the same. He’s taking big hits every game, Walt & Breen mention it all the time too.

Also, we don’t have any 4.0 BPMs but we have Randle & Brunson at 3 plus Mitch a smidge below.

I’m starting to think Brunson plays a little too physically. He’s very solid, but it’s just as matter of time before he has more serious injury or just wears down as the season goes along.

The good news is we have a couple of days off for him to recover. Hopefully he doesn’t miss too much time. He’s a tough kid.

It will be interesting to see who starts at PG assuming he’s out. Thibs might start Rose just to keep the rest of the rotation the same.

It’s a bummer because we were just getting healthy and starting to play well and now Obi and Brunson may be out for awhile.
