    Let’s enjoy the YouTube algorithm for basketball videos, and dip into Locked on Knicks

    Feel good for the end of the bench guys like Garrison, Vit, Roddy, grabbing an extra $50k. Just don't burn it all in Vegas fellas 😉

    Zacc was great on defense but whatever Quinn was preaching to Deandre is doing wonders for his game on offense. He might have gone from a “not good” contract to “he is worth it.”

  13. @sweetnessdabutta9985

    On the Hawks/Knicks Cross over show, Brad asked him….If the Daniels takes Brunson out of the game offensively… what will the Knicks do for offense?

    You could tell from the look on his face that he didn't really take that scenario seriously at all. But he answered the question to play along. But in his head, he was like lol😂😂 that will never happen.

    He said something to the fact that Towns will take over.

    Well, Daniels did exactly that. Towns couldn't take over, and the Knicks had no answers whatsoever. The Hawks turned off the water, the lights, heat, gas… everything. It got real 🧊 in the Garden real fast

    I don't know how people (namely BTRowland) are so composed after this win. I was and am losing my shit. Wore my Trae jersey to the gym after the game, am still grinning ear to ear.

  17. @anb8946

    I like Vit Krejci but I don't need to see him against the Bucks or really at all for the rest of this season until someone gets injured. I don't know what he does better than Kobe Bufkin. I think he's a worse defender, a worse dribbler, a worse passer, a worse shooter, a worse finisher. Sure he's bigger and maybe he's slightly more switchable and a better rebounder, but when you miss the easy put backs on the offensive boards you do get, I don't think the rebounding is all that important.

  18. @anb8946

    I don't mean to imply this was a flukey win, but the whistle the Knicks got in the 2nd half was pretty bad, especially for the home team. This game probably could've been a lot closer if it were called a little better. I'm not gonna beat us up over it, we endured years of getting a terrible whistle.

  19. @anb8946

    I understand Dre coming off the bench to bolster the second unit has been working unbelievably well, but can we not get married to the idea that he should be playing 6-man minutes? He hasn't played more than 33 minutes a single time all season, usually hovers right around 28 minutes and is still putting up 20+ a game. It's a long season and I'm all for staying with what's working, but I would've hoped in a playoff-like game he could've broken into the 35 minute range.

    Playing hard to get your less fortunate teammates a ~5% bonus builds team morale. Expect a better game on Saturday. Fingers crossed on Jalen.

  25. @Evergarden7186

    Hunter coming off the bench is working because he and Bogi become the primary scorers of the Bench and don't have to defer to anyone and just focus on scoring. And the 1st unit is clicking because Dyson and Riz don't always need to have the ball to be effective because they're getting their touches thru cutting and effectively playing off the ball and getting open shots. Plus their defense compliments Trae effectively. Also having 4 starters that can play make can be a hard match up.

    I was such a Dre Stan when he entered the league. I really bought into the "Baby Kawhi" hype. Then he proved to really be baby kawhi with his knees. But man it feels so good to see him balling out on limited minutes now. Quinn really cracked the code

  30. @Spencetenor

    I'm getting REALLY frustrated about not playing Kobe. He was playing so well. I like Krejci. But, I don't really think he's a point guard. We have to play Kobe more. He has such high potential and will never reach it if we don't change.

  33. @William_Stephens

    The double edged sword to this whole thing is Trae’s health. He’s missing some juice in his game. He doesn’t have the same burst going down hill. It seems to be effecting his shot and his finishing around the rim. But on the other hand it has turned him into more of a tactician. He’s picking his spots and facilitating which has allowed the guys around him to step up and play bigger roles which bodes well for us going forward. However, for us to really be competitive we need Trae to be this guy but still have the juice to be him when the offense is sputtering and in big moments.
