1st Knick possession.  Nance cheats way over towards Randle, who kicks to Payton.  No one within 10' of him.  Clanks a 3.

Late int he 2nd, Mitch gets the ball at right 3-Pt elbow.  Drops it off to Randle near the baseline.
I look on the weak side and Knix have Elf and RJB spotting up.  Kinda sad.

Cavs, without a PG the whole game, beat us.  Datsun was there PG. 
Bulldog Drummond dominated.
When he came into the League I thought he could do such damage nightly.
But he's still sloppy with his handle, puts up some lazy shots, misses FT's.
Killed us, but shouldn't he be working out with Shaq in the Summer.
Need to have a killer instinct every night.

Oz hit 5-9 3's and was sweet on the break.
Okoro a nice player without a shot (one wide open 3 barely grazed the front rim).
Quicks was very active.  I enjoy his full court D.  His 3-shot looks a little odd, so i'm not surprised he's a bit erratic with it.  But they mostly went in this game.

Looks like another good game from Elf.
Hey, he shot 4-7 FG.
And Bo said he wasn't a shooter -- what a moke.

Couple strong takes to the hoop

3 turnovers.

Thibs inserted Payton back in at 6 minute mark of 4th, trailing a couple.  Then removed him again 2 minutes later and IQ saw out the loss.

Real sloppy last 4 mins from both teams.

Datsun came up big late.  Finally nailing a 3, made 2 key FT's (on Randle's clear path foul -- dumb rule) and then a driving layup.  I would have liked him still on the Knickers.

Drummond capped off a Big Night with a key late steal.  He had 5 fouls when he did that too.

I cracked up at Knicks TV group lauding Dotson so at the end of the contest.

Yeah, he made key shots but the best Cavs on the night were surely OSMAN, with DRUMMOND

Only occasional nods to Cedi - which was comical.  White guys disease.

it's something different altogether. Here's my new favorite guy btw...

All game, Cavs announcers were lauding the effort from Dotson the past 5 games when no actual PG was available and DD played big minutes out of position.  He shot better the last 3 and had nice assist totals in 3 straight.
Also, while Dotson was missing in the 1st half, Drummond got the O board on a number of his shots.  I didn't know that Dot had been been playing fill-in Point.

Cavs announcers certainly appreciated Oz Man's effort all game.
While they were in awe of Drummond's marauding.
Contract year Bulldog Drummond could be quite something.

CLE catch a break with WAS quarantined.  So their next two games against the WIZ cancelled, and they get nearly a week to get some guards healthy.  And some practices for Jar Allen and Prince Taureen.

The thing about Dotson's buckets was that he made the plays when they really counted. The one thing basketball stats rarely capture is who comes through in the clutch.

Mitch seemed to have a relatively weak game. Not only did Drummond have his way bullying him below, but he seems a bit out of it on offense. Later I heard something about him having hurt his ankle?

Yup. He clanged a dunk attempt on the rim and came down hard on it. He limped through the rest of his minutes.

I’ve been clamoring for a BIG big guy on the roster for just these matchups.

Thibs last night - asked if he was ready to make changes

No time for a followup - and likely no balls from the media anyway.

Yes. I felt this way from Day1.  Boston uses thugs to great advantage.  Knicks would be smart to employ one.

With Taj onboard that's less likely.

Hey Bank, tell your guys to take it easy on The Poor Knicks.

I mean, you will win, no need to give us a merciless beating, ok?
