Brunson looked like a backup again. Those 3 assists aside, too much ball stopping. Made no effort to get Grimes going, his starting SG. Still no chemistry with Mitch.

Grimes took no shots until the end of the second. The stars have to align for Grimes to be aggresive. Cant have that from a starting SG

Randle looks a step slower. Might be the after effects of his ankle injuries. We'll see how long that lasts.

IQ does a much better job than Brunson at getting the proper spacing, more of an effort to get his teammates the ball where they like it.

Starting in preseason, RJ looks more creative around the rim. Not just the same move to the rim anymore.

Too often it looks like the Brunson/Randle show. Would like to see an earlier effort to get everyone going. Especially if Randle and JB are bricking left and right.

Tell‘em how you really feel

Yeah I saw the entire 1st half and will catch the 4th. But Brunson is pressing. He’s a shoot first PG playing with 2 other shoot first players (RJ n Jules).

When your shoot first PG is breaking, it impacts the entire team. I’m glad we have him but if we building around RJ and Jules, they need pass first players around them.

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

He just does not play the right way. No matter what his regular season stats are I can't stand watching him play.

Yep. Same for me with both Randle and RJ. Both guys barely understand how to make better plays.

RJ, end of 3rd quarter is guarding Tatum, and decides to soft double Payton Pritchard and leaves Tatum open at 3pt line. And then miss times rebound for KP put back.

Over and over again.
