Knicks (1-1) at Celtics (2-1) Preseason Game #4 10/17/23

Frustrated with JB. He’s making all the same mistakes as last year, as well as playing way too selfishly as last year. Has stop the dumb, forced hero ball.

And he rarely makes the extra pass, either, even with four other excellent shooters out there.

Doesn’t have the greatest court vision

I'm curious about Joe's personnel decisions this game.  I'd think that Brissett and Svi are far ahead of Banton on the depth chart.  We're going to need both of them to eat up important minutes this season.

Those guys are coming in soon

Send Banton to Maine

I want some Q tonight.

Brissett looks the part of a great NBA player as long as you ignore the results, lol.  Big, quick, decisive... and nothing seems to go in.

[ozgod]

Can our scrubs hang in there

[Goldstar88]

Enough Kornet! Put Queta in already.

Fournier looking like Steph Curry vs this lineup

Ice Hauser!

I'm surprised Arcidiacano is still on an NBA roster.  He's definitely not NBA caliber.

[liam]

Wow, ref!

[Atzar]

Preseason grain of salt applies, but Pritchard looks far better off the bounce than he has at any other point in his professional career.  He's getting to his spots reliably.  Last year, he could not. 

[liam]

Good game!

I feel exactly the same way, but upon checking the box scores, JB is leading the team with 6 assists (and 4 turnovers). He does pass the ball, but there are times when he “needs to get his” which leads to unforced turnovers. That’s the part that he needs to polish. Last year he tried too hard at times in order to earn his extension. Now he’s doing the same in order to justify the huge contract. He just needs to play team ball. It took years for JT to get it. Hopefully JB learns to do that as the season progresses.
