This is the correct analysis !

Brunson hogged the ball. KAT was an afterthought.

I’ll also add we had like 5 ridiculously bad, out-of-character unforced turnovers. We need to put this in the past and refocus

Fuck that, we were up 7 at half and the refs put us in the penalty with 10 min left 22+ ft to 8ft in the second half that’s the game and we still had a chance to win .!refs handed the spurs this game on a silver plater

What’s 22 ft to 8 ft mean? I agree we were hosed by refs in that stretch especially w all the mugging we were getting

Never mind. Free throws. I thought you were saying feet

Gotta win the next game… really think the refs did what they did on purpose to extend the series… again up 7 at half with all the momentum and we get in the penalty with. 10 min to go in the third … they get up because of fts… and we couldn’t recover .

Gotta involve towns more he was a ghost in the second half of this game .

What a shame OG had the best game out of any player on the court tonight .

Also wasted a night when hart was shooting well. We need to play through KAT. Good things happen

Ball pounding is not the answer gotta keep the ball moving. Bridges sat too long and Shamet played too long when he didn’t have it tonight…

Thank god the president isn’t going to the next game . That distraction is over .

Yeah free throws .

I’m disgusted the refs did there job to extend the series … without that help we win this game. We had all the momentum going into the second half and we got mugged by the refs and how they allowed them to play us.

It’s not fair when they can play that way but when we do it’s a foul…

I’m not happy .

For sure the reffing seems to have hurt us this whole series. We’re due for a break. Mark Davis usually does a better job. He has that emotionless stare but will hear the players nd coaches out which usually reduces risks of meltdowns. But tonight they were all over the place.

That said we were extremely sloppy w the ball too. Not just the crazy turnovers but lots of butter fingers and there were a few other flubs we were lucky didn’t turn into easy fast breaks.

We can blame the refs. I’d blame the unforced turnovers. We know the refs are unfair. They need to play better

Agree with this.

1) Mikal got two early fouls. Once he was benched the guards got to the rim at will.

2) Shamet plays with ferocity but just couldn’t shoot for a lick tonight.

3) Brunson showed signs of breaking his slump. But those 5 turnovers are costly.

4) KAT needs to be more involved.

5) The Spurs are getting away with a lot of nonsense. NBA should be ashamed. You can let the men play. Just call it straight.

6) When the Spurs got called on fouls, it was generally after the Knicks got past their defender and an off ball call. Not all fouls are equal.

7) Browns use of the challenge was ACES this game.

8) I am prepare to get my heartbroken. But this game was a sham. You can’t have one guy that can toss players to the ground with no call and another get a flagrant for landing 18 inches away “recklessly”. One team can steamroll the other and the steamrolled player gets the foul? It’s nonsensical.

You know what it is. Knicks against themselves and the world !
