For example, taking BOS and CLE out of the equation, assuming full health, between any of MIL, IND, ORL, ATL, DET, and PHI, I don’t feel all that confident of beating any of them in a first round series. I mean, there is definitely a pecking order…for example, I’d way rather play DET than IND…I just don’t see us steamrolling anyone.

On the other end of the spectrum, Donovan Mitchell has 27 points at halftime in a grudge re-match with the Pacers (who beat them the other night, and who are only down by one point in this one).

Seems to me like a simple waving the proverbial white flag.

demanding at gunpoint that Americans take their kids out of schools and stand six feet or more away from each other because “science.”

I have no idea what this is supposed to mean, other than E is an asshole….

As of today, every Knicks starter is in the NBA’s top-10 in total minutes played.

1. Mikal Bridges
2. Josh Hart
3. OG Anunoby
6. Jalen Brunson
10. Karl-Anthony Towns

Cybersoze, this is probably mostly due to the Knicks starters being mostly healthy. We haven’t been injury free, but it’s our bench that has been hit the hardest. Mitch, Precious, the shoulder injury to Shamet and McBride. That contributes to starter’s minutes too. Watching the games, you can see that Thibs leaves the bench in for longer minutes when they are playing well. But often they don’t play well. They just mostly can’t score.
