This team desperately needs a 6’4”+Three & D veteran PG

Wasn’t this Brogdon? The irony…

We did miss an awful lot of clean looks in the fourth, so call that what you want, shooting variance or choking or whatever, but we didn’t knock down shots when we had opportunities. Everybody was just whiffing on their threes at the end there.

do give credit to the spurs for the way they’re ready to engage as soon as the game starts or the second half begins…

whatever thing(s) they’re doing in the locker room prior to hitting the tunnel then court is working…

For me the Castle run-through was a flagrant because besides just running Brunson over there was clear follow-through with the forearm shiver. If there has to be wind-up AND follow-through then okay, but if you only need one it was definitely there.

Doogie, I feel that they (announcers) did say that yesterday. However, when I plugged the question into our trusty AI search, it said:

“in their Game 4 playoff win over the Philadelphia 76ers, the New York Knicks set a team record for most points scored in a single playoff quarter with 114 points in the first quarter”

So there’s that.

Who was guarding KAT last night? It was such a blur I didn’t notice. All I noticed was it wasn’t Wemby.

“I think it as a franchise record for most points scored in a playoff quarter?”

Definitely not. We scored at least that many points in a quarter at least twice in this very postseason prior to last night.

All I know is last night was the weirdest game because we looked absolutely incredible in the second quarter. I think it as a franchise record for most points scored in a playoff quarter? And literally if we had just played that well for another half quarter, we would have beaten them.

Something I’ve been thinking about. Has Brown been waiting to make his adjustments once we lost a game? Games 1 and 2 the spurs basically threw the same defensive strategy at us that they did in game 3 but we won the first two games. Maybe Brown didn’t want to make adjustments because usually in a series once you make the adjustment, then the your opponent makes an adjustment to your adjustment.

But now that we’ve lost maybe we’ll see more adjustments in the hopes that wins us another game. But if we had won last night, maybe Brown still would hold off on the adjustments, not wanting to show them to the Spurs until he has to?

Or maybe I’m overthinking it, lol.

1.455 ppp is a great number, Director. For context, ~1.2 is usually the best in the league.

Now that you’re here, though, you think you can tell me the story about how this will make us stronger? I need to hear it again. Thanks 🙂
