Brunson and Hart!!

The Villanova guys got us a win.

BTW, was I the only one screaming for Barrett to be taken out at the end (I started at the 7 minute mark, and smoke was coming out my ears at 3)?

My man Grimes with the no-big-whoop foul shots to seal the deal.

That went better than I had hoped.

Grimes could have come in for RJ a little earlier. I think RJ will find a groove eventually.

Nice game one. Lets rejuvenate and do even better on Tuesday.

Yeah, I probably could have skipped the RJ comment.

But I've been making the same point all year. He shouldn't be in there in the latter stages of a game; his control of the ball is sketchy and he's never shown much of a clutch gene. He and Julius on the floor near the end of a game has been...and will always be...a problem. Both Grimes and IQ give you better ball handling, better foul shooting, better 3-point shooting...they just create more problems for the other guys.

BTW, looks to me we're better than the Cavs.

JR looked a bit rusty could be a sweep when he gets into full game shape. Big guys cant rebound and cavs have a very short bench. Maybe its just Knicks but these guys do not look elite. Almost 20 a game from your third scoring option, not too shabby.

Hart probably out for game two. Gonna need Deuce to do Hart things and for Grimes, IQ and RJ to step up.

Just a great series.  De'Aaron Fox is the player that Brandon Jennings was supposed to be.

Hart is listed as questionable. I am concerned.

I think we can without him on this one. We match up well with Cleveland. We were tight last game and still won.

To say nothing of.....

Ouch.

We have to game plan better for cosmic destiny or we will soon lose control of this series.

Listen. This one was on me.

My apologies. I had to work and missed the game.

And this...this is what happens.

I'll be ready Friday night.

This one was more comic density, but hopefully we can make some adjustments, feed off the home crowd and get a win. We need a third and fourth banana to step up or we will be knocked out.

Have to exorcise the demons of that Atlanta Hawks defeat, when the team showed so much promise going in and then...collapsed.

And Julius is still Julius.
And RJ is still RJ.

But there's that Brunson guy. And I'm betting he's an AGENT OF CHANGE.

Let's see if IQ and Grimes can rise up to push the Knicks through this round.

Starting to look like the Hawks series. Three quarters of this one to go.
