Settling for 3 is how the Knicks are goign to get back in the game.  Get better shots.

Two bad threes to start. Not want you want to see to start the half when we've struggled in the third so bad. Hopefully KP is the elixir.

There you go.  Good pass by Brown to KP.  The connection is real.

Interesting - no Mitchell Robinson. Unsure what that's about. Is Hartenstein that much more mobile to cover KP than Robinson?

Got to give Brown credit, he's 5th on the team in shots tonight but still making all the right passes.

People won't like this idea, but I've always thought Randle would be a good fit next to Tatum.

If we don't win the title this year, I wonder if we could work out some deal around a Brown for Randle + deal. Not sure what that would look like in terms of a package given the salary differences next year plus differences in value, but I like the balance and sound of a White, Jrue, Tatum, Randle, Porzingis lineup. Would also help out with the finances and potentially allow us to keep Jrue and White and Porzingis, too, as Randle won't be getting nearly as much as Brown.
Randle and Tatum can have a contest to see who can take the least efficient shots.

Inexcusable sloppiness by JB on that lazy one-handed pass. Joe needs to send a message to the guys when they do that by benching them for a few minutes, or at least something to break these bad habits. Tatum has had a bad habit of that lately, too, and that's contributed to our awful turnover percentages.

No offense. Just playing.

JB with good def on Randle.  I don't like Randle as a player on our team...
JB has been guarding him well, but he doesn't have the size if Randle really wanted to take him inside.
I don't know why Randle / Knicks don't try to exploit the size mismatch when JB has been on him.
