Gutsy effort

Two biggest positives from the game was JB looking for Grimes, which he rarely does. And Brunson making most of his buckets off ball movement, instead of trying to go coast to coast, over and over again.

Hope this carries into the rest of the season.

Throw Thibs in there. Why does he keep bringing Randle back in?

I mean it is criminal to give this cat minutes and like I said after last game I could care less if he puts up 100 - get rid of him.

This is on Leon Rose.

No backup behind Julius no one to push him. No coaching to hold him accountable. No play calls, ****ty offense.

Gave this one away. 100 percent moving screen on Lopez on Hart how the hell do they miss that stuff.

Hard to attract a backup PF who knows he will have Obi's old role on the team. Wont increase their value.

Good try. Reminded me of the playoffs with Brunson playing almost by himself on offense. He was terrific tonight. Randle and the rest of the team continue to shoot like crap. They are playing hard and trying but shots just aren't falling right now. It's a league of averages so you have to figure these players will start to shoot more like their averages. Just got to stay poised and not panic. It's a long season. No shame in any of our losses minus against Cleveland.

The Knicks played hard. Brunson is a superstar getting his rhythm. It’s a shame they lost to Cleveland. It’s a tough schedule early and they are feeling the pain. I still think the front offices biggest miss was abandoning the draft and not having a couple of prospects to develop with this group. You see it will the bucks and beauchamp. Front office can play both sides of the coin and we wouldn’t be too concerned about 2-4.

I mean Brunson for 95% of that game was SPECTACULAR just manipulating the D and getting buckets every which way but loose.

Can't fault most of the roster - played very hard but mostly we can't shoot.

- Mitch lots of rebounds but lots of butter fingers, stumbling/bumbling and I think 0 points --- Deuce comes in for 2 mins and gets a -10 +/1 (ouch).

Thought both Harts energy was GREAT - same for Donte but zilch offensively for him.

Julius played like a chum bucket.

Randle having nearly as many three point attempts as Grimes is criminal. Need to let Grimes go and see how much he cooks. Jules shot frigging 11% from three.

So if we have RJ and the non-defective version of Julius I think we’re as good as the Bucks.

Frustrating game.

It was Brunson and Mitch dominating in their own way. I’m good with this loss. They aren’t at the level of the bucks. But they can sustain bad shooting and beat most teams that aren’t at the bucks level. Grimes play tonight was encouraging. Quickley did his thing too. Add Barrett to this group and I think we are ok even without Randle’s best.

His % may have gone up.

That wasn't Randle's best?

They have proven they can sustain losing with their shooting both tonight, last game and in playoffs.

We had to squeeze maybe Brunson's best game ever and 42 grueling minutes for him to even stay close while G-Freak was traveling all over the court but we have Bucks # --- ok.

At least you can count on his effort defensively if his shot isn't falling

At least Obi got hot again tonight and is starting to flourish with this bigger role --- 21 minutes and 6 points, 4 boards and 0 FT attempts in big Pacer win.
