We're up for it, man!

Mitch has never played better. IQ is ready for a breakout game. And Brunson/Hart are tough as nails every.damn.game.

Bring it on!

That was rough as shit.

However this goes, this series is exactly what the Knicks need to experience to take the next step in development.

We have a lot of adjustments to make. RJ has to learn to navigate his way through playoff heat level pressure. We need to be quicker and more decisive in general.

Our big problems are Butler, Lowry, and Love. Hopefully the game plan will show some adjustments.

We got and missed plenty of open shots. There is still some room to turn the tables.

The three highest paid players in this series are Butler, Bam and Lowry. Forget who is 8 and who is 5. It was always going to be uphill the whole way.

Played well in first half. RJ especially strong. Knicks almost broke it open...but couldn't quite get there. A bit unlucky in places.

The second half wasn't pretty, and the last quarter was pretty fucking miserable.

Regarding RJ again, I've said many times during the year that I don't like him on the floor in the last 5 minutes, regardless of how he's been playing. I've watched him for some 270 games, and he's unusually prone to mistakes at the end of game.

So it was torturous for me to see the sequence of foul, turnover, turnover, blocked shot.

Brunson has got to be the man there. And he said as much after the game.

Hope Grimes can make more of an impact Tuesday. WIth the loss, I'm assuming we'll see Julius then.

We have to attack the legs of Butler and Lowry. We should not let either stand still on the floor for a second unless they are taking themselves out of their offense.

Every time we get the ball those guys should be run through several hard screens each and even better banged into one another. If we fail to break down the Miami geezers they will snatch the soul out of the Knicks this series.

Nice teams finish last.

Yeah, I like this idea.

Lowry was killer today on both ends.

And don't give up any more 4-point plays!

That sucker turned the game around.

The refs jobbed us like they had money riding on the outcome. The phantom call on Grimes would be the prime example.

A lot of missed shots and sloppy ball handling. Julie was missed.

With all the foreign born players in the NBA I do not know how you can even watch half a quarter without your blood boiling over.

Support the immigrant who waits the wait, learns the constitution, is not violent and does not sell drugs or his sister. Really small amount of players come over legally.  At most 20-30 a year?

Do you support the citizen who learns the constitution, is non violent and does not sell drugs to his sister? Or does your support for citizens include the ignorant, violent and predatory?

I do not know this Julie, but I am sure she was missed nevertheless.

BRUNSON?

According to THE POST, Brunson has ankle soreness and is questionable for Tuesday night.
