This is on Brunson. He honestly does not facilitate. Couldn't work with Randle now can't work with towns. He is the problem. Yes he is great yes he can carry so far but he needs to learn to step back sometimes for the team to get to another level. Look how active guys were last night with Brunson on the floor
How do you expect someone to play when they get less than 10 touches a game. It’s why alot of games where brunson sits other players game excel…you cant have him in a brunson system that isnt the scheme they need to be in
When Brunson got here, we hoped he could be Alfred…. He showed us he’s Batman. Last year they didn’t make eachother better but they were scoring over 24 a piece. Mike Brown is the only major change and it’s on his offejeice strategy that Kat is doing worse and this team looks bad
Brunson = NO ball movement he has gone right back to predominantly being an iso ball player which locks Towns out touches. Towns needs touches to get in rhythm and he does see the rock enough. Its not rocket science!!
It's Brown and Brunson. This wasn't an issue with Thibs. It's not that complicated. Also, it's a PG job to make his teammates better. Why does Brunson get a pass on thism he doesn't have to pass the ball as a PG? Can't keep making excuses for Brunson, the one player who isn't adjusting or sacrificing for the rest of the teammates on offense.
Even if u trade KAT for Giannis or anyone else, you'd still have the same problem bcuz JB is not a true PG. He only sees the basket. We can't keep JB at the PG and still expect things to magically change.
Trade both of them but if I have to keep 1 of them I’m keeping Towns. He actually plays his position and theirs not to many centers in the league that could grab boards and stretch the floor. Most PG are 6’4 and up.
Lol Jesus christ it is BUMSON fault. Make him sacrifice and be a damn POINT GUARD and see how everyone cooks… dare I say even bridges!!! All this scoring we have on this team…. WE DON'T NEED HIM TO GO FOR 30ppg… but without scoring he can't do nothing else
This take is absolutely WRONG!!😂😂😂😂. This is the best chemistry I’ve seen a Knicks team have since Sprewell & Houston (by the way rumor said they didn’t fit well either)😂😂😂. Knicks will make the finals and make you look like an amateur analyst.
Thats true… I blame Bronson more because he doesn't try to get Kat going enough. If your the point guard you have to practice one on one with the second best player on your team to build chemistry and comraderie…. like harden practice with all big men he played with and gets them the ball easily on pick and rolls
If we can have Brunson play his iso style, while dishing out to perimeter shooters AND HAVE KAT be a scoring/play maker just like last night! With his height & reach he can dish off ALL NIGHT to hungry Knicks!
Brunson responsible for making kat better as a point gaurd. Kat helped win those playoffs games last year. Jalen brunson doesn't make anybody better. Kolek is a better facilitator than Brunson right now and thats alarming.
The reason why is Brunson has become a SG. That's why if you could get LeBron at a massive discount he fixes the teams ball movement and puts up 10 assists from the PF position. Hart is the only one that can make this all work however 10 assists from him would be an unusually good night. Brunson is someone I barely have any complaints about because he plays smart percentage basketball all the time. However I can see why his teammates might think he only wants to score. Like Jordan did however will they all embrace there rolls on the team because unlike the Bulls in the 90s the Knicks are by no means a lock to win the championship. Like remember when Jordan was surrounded by some of histories most efficient three point shooters and he barely ever passed the ball to them because he was the greatest and one threat of all time.
Neither player is all that good defensively. You can have one bad defender out there at a time, but when you start 2 or 3 of them it creates a rotation that's just way too easy to score on.

So what's the answer Marshall?

Towns need to be under the basket and not at the 3 point line when he is the 5.

This is a coaching issue.
The Knicks and Timberwolves trade was a hit or miss
Brunson = NO ball movement he has gone right back to predominantly being an iso ball player which locks Towns out touches. Towns needs touches to get in rhythm and he does see the rock enough. Its not rocket science!!
And you're making this judgement based on ONE game that Brunson doesn't play?
YOU ARE A MORON…JB NEEDS TO REMOVE THE HARDEN OUT OF HIS GAME. KAT IS JUST FINE.

JB doesn't ever look for KAT. He never gets him the ball. He looks for z Mitch more than KAT
Brunson is a ball dominant point guard who doesn’t make anyone better.
This is the most sense you made since you started this show
Even if u trade KAT for Giannis or anyone else, you'd still have the same problem bcuz JB is not a true PG. He only sees the basket. We can't keep JB at the PG and still expect things to magically change.
Karl Anthony need the ball to effectively and Jalen Bronson is not the point guard guy to that

Who gives a shiznit
But Bridges was better without Brunson. KAT is a crybaby, low IQ player

Just curious so the idea was to bring Giannis here to compliment JB? Another ball dominant player who cant shoot 3s thats the answer?
The one that needs to go unfortunately is Rick Brunson hes the real coach
Brunson needs to become a better distributor. He has the piece's
Brunson needs to get better at recognizing the double , he needs to stop dribbling himself into traps
Brunson is great in the 4th quarter but he's starting to isolate and not pass the ball enough
They still played better without him regardless of the turnovers or the amount of 3s towns took
I totally agree don't see championship with this team this year. We need to go get LeBron James and Greek Freak.
OG could most likely his Robin
Hart is good with Towns, so is Mikal. Brunson is not a playmaker, his game is straight iso now
Brunson responsible for making kat better as a point gaurd. Kat helped win those playoffs games last year. Jalen brunson doesn't make anybody better. Kolek is a better facilitator than Brunson right now and thats alarming.
Blaming Brunson because we traded Julius for another Julius
Kat doesn't have a bag he's out of control most of the time 🏀

Towns need more touches he playing great
