Kenny Smith had a good comment there. Knicks are a system team now ala the Spurs. Countering Chuck and Shaq’s simpleton philosophy about “who is Knicks #2 to compete with Maxey?” … it’s “how can 76ers slow down the Knicks system?”

Kenny knows he got roasted for his Brunson comments and has been trying to clean up and counter it hard during these playoffs. First it was “Brunson closed the gap and will be the best player on floor more often than not” and now is saying he “looks at this differently now with Thibideau’s system”

Both could be true. Glad to see him seeing the light though

They are true, he’s just countering his viral point of “Knicks always have the second best player on the floor with Brunson, never the first” … but yes better late to the party than stubborn as a mule like Chuck and Shaq.

Much needed 3 by Hart. Philly just missed one - instead of 12 pt game we're within 6.

Sloppy start again. Sorry that is a foul, he raised his elbow, then he hits Hart across the arms on another drive and no call, but don't you dare touch Mr. Glass or it's a foul for sure.

Knicks like the last game are out of sorts offensively with the first unit. Brun definitely thrown off - not as in control of the offense as usual.

F'in guard the perimeter, geesh that is 15 points wide open on 3s. Another drive that would have been a foul the other way on the Deuce drive. WTF can't they just call the game fair, especially in the Garden? Not cool.

Bog was wide open and threw it no where

Knicks are totally out of sorts offensively that was an ugly Q

Sloppy. Happy it's just a 7 point game.

iHart hasn't figured out how to guard Embiid yet - forced into much more difficult shots by Mitch so far. Continue this matchup instead of getting iHart into unnecessary foul trouble.

Oubre guards Brunson as good as anyone has all year. He’s gotta figure out a counter - looking like playoff Randle right now.
