Better than getting one of those creepy throat tattoos of his kid, so there's this weird infant image popping out of your shirt on your neck ...
Mitch can be pretty up and down in scoring, boarding, fouling. I think Nawlins is starting to get a little worn down. And his hands arent as good as Mitch's mitts. But the main thing is Knix didn't have to adjust their schemes or coverage on D. Noel fits right in to Mitch's role.
Knix really stole a game they should have lost.
Heroes abound, but RJB was hugely clutch and supremely confident.
That was really something to see. With Julius not sharp, the G's really came through. Also, Taj did some heroic boardwork.
Odd play. About 1:10 left in reg, NYK up 3, Morant gets a switch with Randle guarding him. Julius has 5 fouls and looked gassed when he blocked a Morant drive but got called for a foul just prior. Morant takes one non-threatening dribble and passes off to Brooks. Why didn't Morant drive on Randle, force him to yield or potentially foul out. Fouling out a team's leader is usually considered a good move. So is attacking a key player with 5 fouls. So is attacking a mismatch. Thought that was very much to the Knix advantage.
Memf sure relied on Dillon Brooks jacking 3's in crunch time. He's making just 34% this year. Looks like their best 3Pt shooters are mostly pups. Bane, Grayson, Melt-on. Kyle made some bad plays late, especially an inbounds pass just sailing through his slo-mo hands.
He did manage to strip RJB on a fast break, but on O he was a disaster.
