That game was much harder than it should have been... at least we got the W
We have a team of role-players.
there is no "should"
We won. It is enough.
I second that, TP. Just the fact that were legit looking at a playoff birth and the fans think we "should" blow out a Knicks team that's not much worse than us is a testament to the job Stevens and Co. have done post all star break and just how much we've been overachieving this year.
Good to see IT back playing well. His ability on the P&R and to generate points via free throws even when his shot isn't falling is amazing. Having him on such a good contract is Danny's greatest heist this side of the Brooklyn trade.
I found it interesting someone mentioned Zarren said that the major FO guys all had to write their top three choices for the next coach when Doc left and all of them had Stevens on their lists. Shows why we should have faith in our franchise. I'm glad he's getting acclimated to the NBA without the pressure to contend and has this team making a leap in year two with this roster. With all our flexibility to fill out our roster with his kinda guys, I'm really excited about the future.
Enjoy the win. We have no business blowing out anybody.
