Held the Knicks to 16 points in the 4th quarter.  Heck yeah I'll take it.

After giving up almost 60 in the 1st half.

Man I hope it's nothing serious with Kyrie.

He sat out the playoffs without injury.  Probably just a hang nail and/or a branding thing--pitchers are pretty cool fresh off the Sox win.

I know you hate Kyrie but come on.  He had infected hardware and needed surgery.

[DefenseWinsChamps]

Kyrie will be fine. The trainer didn't even check with him right away. Looked like a stinger.

How anyone can watch this ga,e and claim Jaylen Brown has a low BBIQ is beyond me.

?? What exactly has Brown done tonight to disprove the years of evidence that we have that he has a poor BBIQ??

Just because he's playing well tonight does not change the fact that he has a poor BBIQ. In fact, it kind of proves the opposite - he's playing much better tonight because he's coming off the bench and getting better looks as a more primary offensive option, i.e. he doesn't contribute that much else to the game.

When he's not a more primary option, he's not that good of a ball player, especially offensively, as he doesn't make others around him better due to his limited court vision, poor passing, and an inability to really make plays for others.

I like Brown and hope he continues to play like he is tonight, specifically being more aggressive taking it to the hole. But you keep beating this drum with no reasoning behind it at all.

Brown doesn't have a low BBIQ, This game showed that. He passed when he should have, took it to to the whole and finished when he was supposed to and hit shots when he was supposed to. He did the same thing all last year. He has improve his passing overall, but especially when driving to the basket. He has been an All-NBA defender for most of the last year and a half while taking on the best wing offensive players in the league. Bad BBIQ players don't do that.

I don't think Jaylen was ever a low IQ player. I've never seen it. Everyone makes mistakes but Jaylen seems to think the game very well.

If anything he probably overthinks the game at times. When he’s aggressive and plays instinctively he tends to make the right play more often than not. I like how he didn’t keep bombing away from 3 when it was obvious he was having a lot more success attacking the rim

Good win C's!.  Everyone played pretty well.  We are going to win a lot of games if we play like this every night.

The game will keep slowing down for Jaylen as he goes on. He's still really young but he's a hard worker.

Knicks are the Over-The-Back rebounding team.
