Expect more makes from DM in game five.

Without a doubt

Gigantic talent

Cost to Knicks would've gutted our youth,  rotational depth and the draft assets to replenish it.

Not just that. As has been said around here before, the Mitchell/Brunson combo would have been defensively challenged. That goes double in the playoffs.

As a big detractor of RJ (tho I'm always pulling for him), he played a HUGE role in Sunday's game.

He's had plenty of games making more points, but I can't recall a career performance that was more critical.

Good fucking timing!

It's really amazing...and impressive...that we're up 3-1 without Julius or IQ doing their thing.

The have adjusted very well to the Cavs hunting Brunson switches. It helps in hiding him that he is always the third or fourth best perimeter defender depending on the lineup, such as when Hart and RJ are the forwards.

The Cavs problem is we can hunt Garland and Mitchell. You can not hide two guys at once. And if they stagger them, their lineups only have one or two guys who can shoot in them causing problems as bad on the other end.

Lack of two way depth can be a bigger problem than lack of star power.

Rose knows and we are up 3-1.

If Mitchell and Garland both catch fire we will be in trouble. If they have average games and Mobley or LeVert get hot thing will be just as bad.

Next series should be an epic display of ugly basketball.

Get well JR. Get well QG. We will need you

Knicks won in the front court. Knicks match up well even WO Randle. By the way he did not seem like the news on his injury was good.

The idea that Miami is an easier matchup than the Bucks is nonsense.

Even without Herro

They have great shooting

Kyle Lowry is finally in game shape

Kevin Love gives the Knicks fits

Bam A is far more intense and accomplished than Allen & Mobley

And Jimmy Buckets is the BOMB, easily the most dominant dangerous player in the playoffs

There will be blood.  Heat are Knicks doppelganger
