NYKBocker wrote:From what I remember with Burks his first time here, he was best when the ball was in his hands. Now he was having difficulty being an off ball player with Brunson. He is also having problems with his defensive rotations. Bogs understands the assignment and was adequate defensively. Burks looked liked he was lost half of the time.

Burks was given the ball when he got here as lead guard off bench and he fumbled/bumbled himself all the way to the bench.

He basically shat the bed (choked) his opportunity away - he looked like he was scared of the competitive environment he was traded into.

Just go Precious for more minutes - give me the D/rebounds/blocks over occasionally bucket.

Their fans have given up on Reddit, but fans don’t play the games.

I hope we can close this out next game. It’s been a highly contested series so far - the Knicks have taken a pounding from Embiid (He’s running over everyone) and can use some recovery time.

Losing Tuesday would be really bad on many fronts.

This man is straight up glazing OG... But he isn't wrong.
Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right. - The Tick

Philly has a lot of secondary scorers or guys who have put up 20+ppg in other situations and they can't seem to make an impression. Its not easy fitting parts around 2 great/ball dominant scorers. Can't just throw another 20 pt scorer in it and think they are gonna produce the same way. Harden leaving freed Maxey, etc.

Nurse relying on Lowry - I guess Lowry is his "Taj." Though Thibs not throwing a Taj type 30 mins in playoff games. Sixers are struggling to get points and Embiid can't / won't attack the paint against a small Knicks team. You would think they could scheme Harris some more post ups. He was a pretty decent post up player early in his career, but they just don't know how to use the guy, or the guy just doesn't have it mentally to assert himself.

All Facts

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

Yep, scorers are probably the hardest to blend. I’d rather just get a bunch of dogs and let ‘em figure it out like we have here.

Fans love to hate.

It's practically our motto, right?
