So against the Cavs, Celts, Nets, Lakers and Heat we went 3-2.
I would have guessed most of us Knicks fans would have signed up for that in a heartbeat…

And if you had told me that included 2 wins against Celts and Heat, i couldn’t sign it fast enough. 😉

Fwiw, Grimes did make a perfect lob. Randle just ate it. But yeah, our inbounding plays are garbage.

I watched our last inbounds attempt 5 times on replay. One of the most infuriating ATO plays I’ve ever seen. Not one damn screen. Not one attempt to get a player moving toward the ball in space. The plan was “Everybody scatter.” Grimes would have had to throw a perfect lob to get the ball in to any of the 4 guys on the court.

This isn’t a last-second shot they’re drawing up. It’s a damn inbounds.

“You know, there’s no place in the game and you’ve gotta protect yourself at the end of the day, but this has been brewing for years, with me, with other guys in the league…this isn’t new,” Mitchell said.

“Yeah, best game by Deuce…all season?”

For sure, offensively. It was his normal decent-to-good defensive game, he’s actually had better lock-down stretches, and a few games where he orchestrated the offense really well, but actually making three baskets (two of them threes) was pretty huge.

“The defensive difference without Brunson was, unfortunately, quite apparent.”

We can live with one negative defender on the court. At least Brunson tries hard and is willing to give up his body. We need everyone else to either a plus or at least hold their own, preferably 3 pluses. OGA would be so perfect. He addresses a very specific need and is still young and improving.

In reply to Z–man.

Really good shifts by Deuce and Obi…and Forunier did some good things too.

Yeah, best game by Deuce…all season?
