Smooth like butter, JT! And even on elite perimeter D, too! Just think Bridges isn't big enough to check him.

Tatum and the C's are playing at the Mecca of Basketball, so they must showcase exceptionally well tonight!  ;)

Final possession aside, JT had a hell of a quarter.  Snuffed that Knicks run right out.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Need to match the intensity in the 4th quarter and avoid injuries and they can get some rest

Everyone is playing strong defense against the league's 2nd best offense.  How about Q and Luke!

Tatum is definitely putting on a show at MSG. Probably also why he?s playing a ton this game. He also had a billboard put up in Times Square after the C?s won the Finals lol

Let Tatum get 40 then sit him down. No need to play 40 minutes in a blowout

18-point game still not over yet. Knicks can come back fast if their 3's are falling or if we let go of the gas pedal.

Brown needs to help lead though.

I hope this is the same score we get in a hypothetical second round matchup with NYK, too.
