Mitch will get paid, hopefully by us. Games like this are great for him.

Don’t know which was more exciting today, the politics or the basketball.

Great fucking shorthanded win.

It’s nice to see a Knicks team with juice at the end of games.

Gobert?

How about Mitchell?

I said all along he was not a super stud type in this league

Of course Knickerbockers must be given credit for their solid play vs the duo.  Assume it was RJ long with Mitch but team D rules with this team

While Gobert is a fine player, is he anywhere near worth 4/$155M?

Mitch, a super-bargain, makes just $1.6M this year.

Rudy Gobert signed a five-year, $205 million contract extension

Rudy Gobert signed a five-year, $205 million contract extension

Gadzooks, worse than I thought.
I remember when the deal went down (Dec 20) thinking it was a completely absurd amount.  And on top of that, Rudy was self-back-patting saying he left a little on the table to help the team.

I just quickly looked at Hoopshype and added together the extension years.  But they only have 5 years worth of salary, and Gobert is now on a 6 year deal, this year at $25M and then his monster 5 years deal averaging $40M kicks in.  So Hoopshype doesn't list his final year of $46.6M.

Who pays $40M for a C these days?
You can get a top level one for $20M.
A solid one for $12M - $15M.
And 5 years reeks of Melo panic.  And 4 years was the going rate -- all other teams could offer a FA.  I don't get it.

UTAH shooters -- Donovan Mitchell, Mike Conley, and Bojan Bogdanovic combined for  3-23 from the three-point land.

The Knicks shot just 2-10 from three in the first half and had 11 turnovers. That allowed the Jazz to shoot 53 percent from the floor and 42 percent from three by finding easy looks in transition.

In the second half, the Knicks shot 6-12 from three and had just one turnover, which kept the Jazz from getting out and running.

So sorry to hear this. 

Seemed to be finding his mojo.

Let’s send the Magic DSJ for one of their promising bigs. Bomba would be great. We’ll throw in a 2023 2nd rounder.

A bit of a wacky 2nd half.
At the 6:19 mark of 4Q, Knix up 3, and they simply didn't guard Bogdanovch who just walked to the corner unattended but missed a wide open 3.
One early season weakness has been transition D for the Knix.
I'm sure Thibs will work on that.

Then oddly, two plays later UTA just totally fails to place a man near Randle who catches a pass right near the hoop.

Last 7 mins, Jazz missed 6 open 3's.  Bogs had 2 wide open looks, Mitch clanked two, Conley another and finally Ingles at 1:25.  All good looks.  4 very open.
Donovan tried to rally the Utes.  Clarkson, who was their only hot hand, came out of Conley with 3:42 left.  Not sure why.  (Ingles in for Bogs at the same time made sense)

And Rivers got hot by sinking a tough 3 over Gobert, and then a floater off a very broken play as the shot clock was ending.  After that, Rivers was deadly.  But the first two that got him rolling weren't easy.

Knix D was good late 3Q -- 2 Mitch blocks -- and early 4Q (Knox block, bottling up Ingles to get a bad pass).  But last 6:20 to 1:20 of 4Q UTA had good looks and just clanked.  Bogdan really stunk. 

Couldn't believe how bad Utah was when Knix inbounded from the baseline.  Quinn gonna need to work on that.
