I don’t we were down 10 at end of Q1 - Obi came in and I think we went on 13-0 run.

So at least whatever happens to the series we've gotten a better RJ, a functional Obi (with some good spurts), Grimes hopefully in a breakout. IQ got hurt but of all our second team he seemed to have made the least progress (and lost several mil in the process) and Deuce still needs time.

This game does make you feel better but that feeling could turn quickly with a stinker Friday.

RJ has been LARGE all playoffs- not just efficiency but more so decision making has been spot-on and his defensive effort has been solid if not great imo.

IQ and Julius very disappointing for me.

Jimmy actually played 43 minutes which could be good for us if refs don’t give him 40 free throws.

Think Grimes could be more solid defensively- he’s been guessing wrong directionally and giving some blow bye’s.
Have to keep Jimmy in front - limit penetration Friday.

So strategy looks like to keep Jimmy from becoming playoff Jimmy (35 points +) while hoping that allowing them to keep shooting threes eventually leads to some regression to the mean.
Because the alternative is to keep single coverage on Butler, in which case you risk getting playoff Jimmy plus them hitting lucky threes as they need them.

Probably accurate on the strategy but harder to pull off in Miami.

For me I feel like Heat have won the dirty play battle all series- more hard screens, more hard fouls, getting to more loose balls.

We somehow have to win that part of the game without imploding if refs get to blowing whistles

Mitch won't say it but he took it personal.

We should be beating these guys to death right now.

Pump fakes, stupid fouls, doubling and leaving 3 point shooters open, it’s incredible that we keep falling for this bull ****.

Absolutely ridiculous. We are better than this!

Nice win this eve, but should have blown them out!

You and Thibs taking Julius out down 10 —— leading to immediate 13-0 run after Obi entered.

Counting your shots at Randle tonight…but I lost count. Trust you enjoyed the win!

I have my opinion - you keep counting teacher

Now word leaking Knick staff lit into Julius post game 4 - no idea why those mean coaches would do that

Fixed.

This your baby brother?

We got a couple more games my friend.

Who needs a rap song when they have you.
Hofstra trying to hold it in when someone criticizes Randle.

Nah bro. All smiles after a dub. And Randle needs to improve a lot of things. Just like feeding those with the fever.

This you?
