Another must is for Brunson to make more of an effort to get them going early on. That will help take some of the pressure off of him defensively.

I think they also might have to bite the bullet and start Brunson of guarding Garland or Mitchell. I appreciate the effort, but Garland is going to torch RJ anyway. But when you have JB guarding a competent wing like Cedi or Caris it brings another scorer into the equation. Those guys aren't world beaters, but they're competent enough to take advantage of a 5 inch height advantage.

so wait are you saying the reason RJ cant beat Garland's defense is he's not competent?

I agree w/ Panos... I'm not sure they fold but I think who wins game 3 wins this series. I can still hear RJ saying "we did our job" in winning one on the road. That's the **** that ends in L 4-1

Look, I'm gonna refrain from crapping on RJ until the game is over. But, the numbers speak for themselves.

maybe its your first day here but the ONLY number that matters is 22 years old.

Ah, 22 is his age, not his three-point shooting percentage. Thanks for clearing that up.

Wondering if there is therapy or pills or something for RJ Obession? Its already an outbreak - but looking to curb this before it becomes a pandemic.

Them youngins need sleep and they are nocturnal. Game starts at 8:30 tonite. Later the better?
Wish I had MSG (I do league pass in reg. season). I have to endure Mark Jax and JVG fake ass outrage and grievances.
Maybe if Breen is on with them its ok?

LOL, Jax and JVG started doing their fake act about Drose and then he checked in! Game was done and they had to come up with something.
Breen was true pro for national broadcast. He calls a great game!

RJ carried the team in first period when nobody could hit a thing! It was like he pulled both teams down to his leven and executed some nice plays on both sides.

The steals rebounding won the game for us by our starting 5, and IQ was great too.
Offensive boards was also key.
Did not see Grimes get hurt, he looked awful shooting. When he drove he got intimidated by their interior defense and hesitated. Hope he can bounce back.

Crazy idea: Start EF. He misses his first two shots you “Okoro” his ass for the rest of the game. We need to open the floor up. Obviously we fortunate Clev was ice cold also in 1st.

You can turn off the sound and listen to the MSG radio feed. Ed Cohen and John Wallace are solid. The good thing about the last game is that it was so embarrassing that I don't think anyone stayed out late partying.

So now game 4 is not a must win since game 3 was a must win and technically you can't have 2 must wins back to back unless you're facing elimination? So confused!

Born in Brooklyn, Raised in Queens, Lives in Maryland. The future is bright, I'm a Knicks fan for life!

Pull out all sports clichés and apply to help the knick fan’s emotional deficits.
Its really Cavs “Must win” as few teams statistically can come back from down 1-3.
Given how knicks are a good road team that might back that up.
Its must see TV today.
Be nice to get this one and head back to Clev up by 2.

Game 4 is not a must win for the knicks but a loss will put alot of pressure on the knicks with the momentum shifting to the cavs. With game 5 at Cleveland, if the knick get back to back losses it might be hard for them to bounce back.

Im hoping they get a win later. Please knicks, dont complicate things, just get another win
