This game is reminding me of the Hawks/Cavs game the other night. Hawks sat their entire starting 5 and bench players and rooks played with tremendous energy. Cave went through the motions as the Hawks gained confidence and momentum....Hawks went on the win that game

The Knicks role players are scrappy as hell. This is all Phil needs to see to make up his mind going forward. He needs to keep going in this direction. Add some young Frontline talent and continue the development.

Not sure anyone expected him to be such a good distributor...he continues to amaze with the assists, just as he disappoints with his shooting.

I do think he'll fix his shooting, which means we will have a player who at the very least will be a solid backup PG.

Im liking the bank shot off the high glass he's been making lately, and Baker is shooting in the flow of the offense, as opposed to most of the season where he would only shoot because time was running out.

Wizards are right behind Toronto. This game still has implications for them. You'd think they come out with energy and set the tone early...But those younger legs man.

Baker is finally playing instinctively and with confidence. This is more like he looked in College. He's always been a better offensive player than he had shown earlier.

I could be wrong, but I believe he was drafted initially for his 3pt shooting, the PG skills are bonus. Now he is starting to gradually show that 3.

Wouldn't matter if the Knicks weren't doing anything with those young legs.

Good D by Lowry. That's the type of pressure we've been missing all year. Good experience for our guards.

DeMarre Carroll...Case study into why you usually don't give big money to guy coming off a career year in their late 20s.
