That 2nd team got the Knicks all confident.
Brad did that with some really nonsensical rotation decisions.

But seriously, Brad's rotation and timeout decision-making abilities are highly questionable at times, especially tonight.

This three point guard lineup has been terrible all season long, and not staggering Smart and IT is such a terrible decision with no other guy to really run the offense.

EDIT: And more of this team simply trying to outscore the opponent rather than playing D. I swear, Smart is the only one who consistently plays D on this team.

Why did Jaylen get pulled and Rozier get in? No good...

OMG that Smart block was crazy.

He's the best guard defender I've seen since MJ.
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

Can we focus on shutting down Gomez. He's killing us.

Yeah, because you have a center in Horford trying to guard him out on the perimeter. Al simply cannot do this. It's been increasingly evident all season long.

Gomez looks like the best player out there.

Down 25-11 in rebounds, yet Brad thinks a super-small three point guard lineup is appropriate.

The only option we have is Mickey but Brad doesn't want to deal with the mistakes he will make.
