Surprising numbers quite frankly

"KNICKS’ KNACK: The New York Knicks improved to 15-4 over their last 19 games with last night’s victory over the Toronto Raptors. During that stretch, New York leads the NBA in defensive rating and has held 10 opponents under 100 points (including each of the last three), anchored by former Kia NBA All-Defensive Team selection OG Anunoby. The Knicks face the league’s top-ranked defense tonight when they host the Oklahoma City Thunder at 7:00pm/et on ESPN – Eastern Conference No. 3 vs. Western Conference No. 1."

Mitch don't play back to backs.

SGA and iHart been out a while. They'd rather come back vs. Us in a national game or vs. the Bulls?
I gather returing after a long stretch they not doing back to back.

Both might be rusty and I'd think on minutes restrictions.
Maybe not a statement game but its march and teams are dialed in for the playoffs.

What is the advantage of having him listed as not playing a priori instead of having him on the bench for an emergency 5 min stretch?

I have so many questions. Why don't he buy ice cleats and throw them in the car for when he has to walk up an icy path? Why is he walking up an icy path? Just walk on the snow 2-3 feet by the side of the path. Why is he posting it? Shouldn't he be somewhere shooting free throws instead? So many questions

Arrived early for Todd/Martin pics and NOTHING.

Do we get Sochan tonight with no Mitch? Huckster hasn't been cutting it for me lately so he'll probably play and grab 40 boards.

3 keys for me....

- limit Jalen getting the ball up the court (use other methods)
- Mikal or OG have to have big offensive game (1 or the other or preferably both)
- play with more force than they do (want to see <100 again and everyone swarming/rotating like micro-waves)

It's freaking 'Best Friends Night' and they have Breen on ESPN instead of MSG with Clyde?!

I'd like to speak to the manager.

Still unbelievable that was not a charge on SGA for foul #3. Despite a tech and some sloppy passes immediately after, only down 2. Finished the Q strong.
