And 1 block!

I have come to terms that Obi will never get good time. Randle and RJ injured and he still can't get big minutes.

Not tonight. Good game Obi -- and Coach. Hoping for momentum. Now is the time.

Lets F..n go! Clinch the sixth baby! Got going after a bad first Quarter. JB got going despite double teams.

First time since 2018 that 4 players scored over 20 points. That is a true team win!

Obi with great energy. Do not care about anything else. He looked like had some fire in him.
Maybe that RJ mix up was more than some are saying. Definitely had a chip on his shoulder tonight.

Grimes staying hot. Just in time.

Need the Nyets to crack.

Ball moving again all night long beautiful thing to watch. Grimes is special. Obi going to look very good when he gets guys that are consistently looking for him.

Something is wrong with Thibs, Brunson shouldn’t be playing these extra minutes with a huge lead. We need to prioritize keeping him fresh for the playoffs.

Missed most of the game, just the last 4 minutes. Nice to see Obi lighting up the scoreboard. Shows what Obi can do when he isnt an afterthought in the offense.

Nice to see Grimes keeping the hot shooting going.

Knicks with 3 first round picks over 20 pts tonight. That's what I'm talking about!

If the Knicks beat the Pacers next game that should clinch a better conf record than the Nets, so that should be thr tiebreak. Then they can rest the last 2 games.

He took a shot to his hand. If we cant hold a lead without Brunson...

Could he be thinking that since he's been out so many games with injuries, recently, he doesn't need the rest?

Me, I sit him down. He doesn't seem to have to play extra minutes to get back his groove back, or get back into shape, so it makes no sense to extend his playing time in a game you're going to win.

Thibs, though, might be the kind of guy who is always worried about losing a lead, & wants the player he trusts the most out there until he feels the Knicks can't lose a lead.

Awesome win tonight.

Loved how everyone played tonight and stepped up without both R.J. Barrett and Julius Randle. Beating Washington without Beal/Porzingis/Kuzma is nothing to write home about etc but I loved the ball movement and style of play (31 Assists and ran a lot in transition).

Knicks and Suns now have the longest winning streaks in the league @ 4 consecutive wins in a row.

Could be peaking @ the right time and right before heading into the Playoffs too (good sign).

And getting Julius Randle back will become another team (postseason) spark.

Once again, I so love the play with iHart, jHart, and IQ, and now Grimes in the flow. Just fantastic team basketball. Didn't miss RJ tonight ONE IOTA.
