Drew Eubanks very nearly became my least favorite NBA player.

Good win. Good mixing of the lineups. Everyone had a little key stretch at least and nobody was given enough rope to hang the team when they were dragging things out of wack.

Nice game by RJ.

This was an in and out and in again game for us for the most part which helped.

Fournier needs to dial in and sharpen up the little things, otherwise no big issues with anyone

15 pts

Barrett looked ok with the second unit 

Good win

1-1  4 to go

Former Spur Luka Samanic named G League Player of the Week after averaging 30.0 points, 12.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists to lead the Westchester Knicks to a 2-1 mark.

Against one turnover. He was really hustling up the court with the ball and working hard on defense.

The Knicks made 18 threes last night while shooting 47.4 percent from deep.

They are now

5 - 0 when they make at least 17 threes

9 - 3 when they shoot 37 percent or higher from deep, and 5 - 0 when they shoot at least 44 percent

3 - 9 when they shoot under 35 percent from deep, and 0 - 4 when they don't make at least 10 threes

Turns out making shots matters. Who knew?

[Kam]

Mitchell Robinson: This was just the fifth time in Knicks history a player had at least eight offensive rebounds in 22 minutes or less.

It was also just the second game in NBA history where a player packed eight offensive boards, three blocks and two steals into so little court time.

The Knicks walked into a building they haven't won in since January of 2014 and never lost control of this game.

After last night, even with all his struggles, RJ Barrett is at 34.7 percent from long range - exactly league average on the season.

After the 12 point win, the Knicks now boast the seventh best road net rating in the league.

The Knicks are outscoring teams away from home by 3.9 points per 100 possessions, a number that falls short of only the Warriors, Jazz, Nets, Bulls, Cavs, and Suns.

Perhaps if they clean up their 28th ranked negative 4.5 net rating in MSG, they might actually be onto something.

It is important to note who Mitch was playing with.

Three of Mitch's offensive rebounds, all of which resulted in put-back points, came off Derrick Rose drives.

Rose's ability to put pressure on the rim and attract the attention of the big on defense opened up things for Mitch down low in a significant way.

heh

Barrett making shots and Knicks winning even made Julius (5-12) look awesome.

Knicks had lost three straight - with his numbers BETTER in those three.  But we lost, so he was a stiff, holding us back, etc.

Well, there is the teeny tiny matter of the way he played the game, as opposed to his numbers.

Clearly focused on making others better and distributing rather than dribbling smack through four defenders.

So yes, he wasn't the stiff holding us back this time around.


*** that said, still don't love his apparent effort and body language at the beginning of these games, it's like he is so dubious of any plan that doesn't revolve solely around him, but eventually, once we get a lead, he gets more enthused and dives all in

That sir, is a load of crap. 



Where would Knicks "fans' be without a scapegoat. 

"Off with his head..." 

[chipstern]

There is a cumulative and qualitative difference between trying to do too damn much, forcing the action, and being selfish. 

Eight assists?  Yeah, one selfish cat.  Amazing how one's perspective chages when sunsuvbitches are ACTUALLY MAKING OPEN SHOTS. 

Fuck y'all, thrice. 

[kidcarter8]

29 assists is Julius's top 4 game stretch this year

I dont think the minutes - 40/39/35/35 - bother him.

Stephon Marbury: I know I'm used to being the escape goat, but damn, c'mon - when is enough gonna be enough?
