nhl is doing that thing tonite that the nba tried once every single team is playing in a staggered fashion with games starting every 15-30 minutes i like it conceptually but it is difficult when betting because of constant player updates all nite long player updates in nba are much much more difficult to deal with than in hockey

Watched some of the replay. Sorry if it was mentioned yesterday, but all their shots are short, it makes sense they were simply tired.

now yabu is randomly questionable for tonite it would be good for him to be there to push giannis or giannis’ around a little bit

Expected Lineup
PG Jalen Brunson
SG Mikal Bridges
SF OG Anunoby
PF K. Towns Ques
C A. Hukporti

MAY NOT PLAY
G M. McBride Ques

Milwaukee has Giannis and then a bunch of vanilla pudding as the rest of their roster. Ryan Rollins, Taurean Prince, Gary Trent Jr, Kevin Porter Jr, Kyle Kuzma. They also have a couple of stretchy bigs in Myles Turner and Bobby Portis.

None of those guys are terrible, but that is a collection of nondescript NPCs if I’ve ever seen one.

Never been to Jamaica, and now living in London too far to ever be on my bucket list, but always had a soft spot for it because Patrick was born there.

I went to a brand new Sandal’s resort on Jamaica’s north coast last year (Sandal’s Dunns Falls), it was amazing! We climbed the falls, great experience. I can’t imagine what 2 feet of rain will do to that mountanous island, not to mention 180MPH wind and 15 ft storm surge. I’m not sure anyplace on the west side of the island is going to be recognizable after this unprecedented monster moves through, including beautiful Montego Bay and Negril.

Montego Bay and Negril were where I went 3 times in my twenties. Fifty years ago. They warned us at airport that the Rasta were killing the tourists. The spiffs were rolled with bread paper. Amazing. IRA

much less worried about our competition than our own performance…

not sure, but out of 12 quarters played seems like we really haven’t played but a few of them well…

hopefully MB and the team have made some adjustments heading in to tonight’s matchup (dial back a little on the threes maybe)…

hopefully whatever is going on for deuce is working itself out okay…
not sure what the odds are, but feels like a toss up with us and the bucks…

it would be awesome to see us play well for at least 3 quarters each game…

I’ve forgotten what it looks like for us to shoot well…

trying to shake this feeling of disappointment about mitch not playing yet 😞

JK, you named a great list of Bucks players who are eligible for “the big game” against us. Trent, Portis, Prince, Kuzma, etc. Maybe a game thread quiz, if we have a game thread…

I’m fine with Yabu not playing. It will let me focus on watching Clarkson for my disappointment (and honestly, he’s been playing relatively well, if you ignore his inability to actually put the ball in the basket…).

update: deuce ruled out hope all is ok with him also kat upgraded to probable yabu remains questionable

it’s all just content now every where you look…

those new meta glasses look pretty essential these days…help overcome any inconvenient obstacles to content consumption…

look: I’m talking.to you, video recording whatever, writing a text AND watching the knicks play basketball on my fancy specs…

yeah i noticed how quickly the nba cup thingie is getting started too essdog i think its a bit much to have it this soon after the beginning of the season both for fans to deal with and also because teams are just coming together right now and shouldnt have their games extra counted for something else this early in the season but cest la vie i guess

No Deuce again tonight. He’s hardly essential enough for it to be an excuse–we should go out and win–but man, he sure does seem to bring some stuff to the table we otherwise lack.

What’s the defensive game plan for Giannis tonight? Try OG in single coverage and have everyone else mostly stay home? Not having Mitch for this one is brutal…Huk Huk?

i dont have a subscription to peacock either dear geo but last tuesday i was able to watch the opening night games on my network version of nbc i imagine you might be able to do the same

We are now approaching the 3-week mark since Mitch was sidelined. I think we should start bracing for the news that Mitch has suffered a series setback and more revision surgery is needed. I say this because his return was not properly reported at this time last year, and because they are giving us no reason to feel otherwise.

Perhaps he will return at some point but my guess is that he will have to play through significant pain all season, with little chance of him being at 100% at least until he has offseason revision surgery.

Am I being too pessimistic? Does anyone here feel strongly that a 3-week absence is nothing to worry about, and that he will return at full strength and pain-free? Asking for a friend…

as i mentioned i think all of the peacock games can also be viewed on ones local nbc affiliate station it worked for me last tuesday on opening night

hmmm, okay, wasn’t showing up in my guide earlier…

thought maybe I had gotten a reprieve for any potential angst to arrive this evening…

Doogie, I’m not sure that is true, but obviously hope it is. If you look at the Knicks schedule on ESPN, there are some games that list both NBA and Peacock:
10/28 @MIL
12/2 @BOS
1/19 vs.DAL
2/1 vs.LAL
2/24 @CLE
3/15 vs.GSW
3/29 @OKC
3/31 @HOU

…and some that list only Peacock:
1/5 @DET
3/9 @LAC
4/6 @ATL

I’m wondering if a) it is just a typo, NBA should be there, b) those last 3 games would require subscription, or c) perhaps the games would also be available on MSG. Anyone know for sure?

The games vs. WAS say “MNMT,” which is the streaming service for DC-area sports. Will those be available to MSG subscribers? I’m guessing yes, but not sure.

There are 9 remaining Amazon Prime Video games. Those probably require a subscription.

It appears that all of the IST games will be on TNT or ESPN.

Asking for a friend…

No one on the outside has any idea, but you mistrust is perfectly justified considering the history of the front office.

I’m hoping this is conjunction with an upcoming big swing, but I can’t imagine it for the life of me.

Now I’m reading that the knockout rounds of the IST are also on Prime…

Here’s an Athletic article with more details.

From the article RE: the 3 Peacock exclusive games:

Peacock
Like ABC, NBC gets picked up for free with a broadcast antenna (rabbit ears never went out of style). But NBCUniversal is also trying to maximize Peacock, its over-the-top subscription service already building out a presence in college football and Premier League soccer. This season’s Peacock games are on Mondays, and most weeks have two or three exclusives stacked up to start the week.

Knicks games exclusively on Peacock
Monday, Jan. 5: at Detroit Pistons, 7 p.m.
Monday, March 9: at LA Clippers, 10 p.m.
Monday, April 6: at Atlanta Hawks, 7 p.m.

What you’ll need to watch these games: NBC is free over the air. Peacock subscriptions that include live sports start at $10.99/month with ads.
Additional monthly cost: $11-17 for the Peacock exclusives.

Am I being too pessimistic? Does anyone here feel strongly that a 3-week absence is nothing to worry about, and that he will return at full strength and pain-free? Asking for a friend…

If it was almost any other team, I’d trust what they tell us. But the Knicks are notorious for being outright full of shit when it comes to injuries. They said it’s not a new injury – which is probaby Knicks code for saying his foot is bothering him again.

On the upside if it was very serious he wouldn’t be traveling with the team. He’d be in rehab somewhere or getting a 2nd opinion. So my guess is that he felt something was not right after the first few pre season games and they decided to back off and see how he feels after a few weeks. Then they’ll try again.

If we have to pay for Peacock, that sucks because the games are in 3 calendar months so it would appear that you would have to pay for 3 months just to see those 3 games.

maybe they trade giannis to us at halftime

“Alright Jalen, on this inbound play you’re gonna run up to Giannis and whisper in his ear how much money your dad gets paid to coach.”

Strat, with current diagnostic tools, “feeling not right” shouldn’t be a thing. Either there’s inflammation or not. Either there’s a visible change or there’s not. They have to know something more than “it’s sore” after 3 weeks. He’s missing real games now and it’s hurting the team.

Slightly embarrassed to admit I have access to Peacock bc Lady Hubie makes me watch Love Island with her.

those new meta glasses look pretty essential these days…

Everyone being secretly videotaped by strangers wearing these things? I predict some punching in the face.

And, yeah, I too am now worried about Mitch.

Don’t have access to NBC so just signed up for Peacock and I’m pissed.

Donnie, sorry to hear about Mathurin and Obi.

Nice, Raven! I suggest starting on Season 6. Really looking forward to your thoughts on Rob & Leah.
