I woke up feeling very strange about Randle’s great game… :-S

Yeah, records when you lose aren’t that great. Well, on Melo’s 62 we won but we were having a losing season, and playing awful for most of the season, so it wasn’t that great either.

It’s a beautiful afternoon here in Hawaii, so I’m chill about this loss.

Enjoy your vacation, Brian! 😎

Seriously, though, bad losses are totally fine in and of themselves, it’s only a problem when they come in bunches. This is not a big deal.

On a side note outside of Mets fans this WBC has been incredible.

They still have a good chance at 5th place, no question about that. At worst, 6th place. But they need to communicate and get around screens better than they were doing this game. It was hard to watch how easily Minessota was shredding Knicks D all night.

The next team Minnesota plays could leave Taurean Prince wide open all night and he’s not going 8-8 from three. Probably more like 3-8.

Shit happens, I’m not happy with the loss but the guy was completely unconscious

On the bright side, this might help Minnesota finish ahead of Dallas

Last 2 times Knicks were 5th seeds they went 47-35 and 45-37, best part was they won both series and I remember them very well! Both seasons too they played horrible down the stretch and didn’t exactly have momentum going into the playoffs, let’s hope that doesn’t happen this season. Putting aside frustrations from tonight I think these Knicks will be fine and should hold on to the 5th seed.

A team cannot shoot 61.4 for the game, including 58.3 from the three point line just because they got ‘hot.’ They were allowed to get into a rhythm and thus were making even contested shots. But far not all their shots were contested. Knicks never broke the Wolves rhythm except during a stretch at the end of the third and start of the fourth. Their penetrate-n-kick worked all night. Knicks pick and roll defense was not good and this was letting to rotations that were often messed up. Closeouts were not always there. The majority of Wolves 3-pointers were open or very lightly contested.

Very bad D overall. This thing would have been long over if Randle had not gone wild in the third quarter.
