I wish we could incorporate the best of what Brunson and Randle do into the Knicks ball movement offense we saw the last couple of games in the regular season.

It is amazing to see Grimes just disappear like he does when Randle and Brunson play together on the same court.

2 fouls on Mitch and IHart. Could Sims get some burn tonight, or we go with Julius/Obi?

Brunson forcing it a little too much early with these pull up 3s. Rather see him bully it in the paint.

both our starting guards just midding it up. Brunson forcing and it seems like Cavs are clamping down on IQs weaknesess.

Yes, those misses early on the shot clock were bad shots.

Cavs playing hard on defense.

Let’s hope they run out of gas.

I want more passing. We need to light it up from 3.

Brunson with a few in and outs, but Knicks are getting beat badly by the press and trap. Quickley looks lost

They are doubling Brunson really far from the paint. We need to make them pay

I hate Reggie Miller as an announcer for Knicks games.

We need to take better care of the ball. Also need to get JR some easy buckets on the move

It’s not going to be the same in the playoffs. Quickley and Grimes are both scared of the moment right now.

Cavs are playing textbook D. Rubbing their starters hard though.

Knicks offense isn’t adjusting. Can’t beat the ball defense of the dribble with simple with called picks and the passing isn’t tight or fast enough.

Knicks need to regroup during the timeout. I’d pull IQ and Barrett and put Brunson and Grimes back in.

You know I gonna spin wit it
