Huck is a foul magnet -- Kat must be mentoring him.

It's mind boggling how we can create unforced TO's - very creative squad.

Yep he was.

The Brunson 1/2 court offense was hard to watch tonight --- him backing guys in from the 3 point line while 4 guys stand around makes me ill.

Kolek got the ball out of his hands quickly to our wings and they seemed to wake up and that was that.

Enigma. 22 boards and could barely score a layup against all 6'9" or shorter guys.

Both soft and a great defensive rebounder -- another thing (rebounding) to think about if we do move him.

TO are midgets next to KAT.

They have no rebounding size out there.

Easy night to get boards.

NOPE - he's a great rebounder (great hands).

He's 2nd in the league in rebounding I think and next closest Knick had 5 boards (he gobbled up everything) and as Grady Dick always says size doesn't matter.

Well, yes, TO was tiny. Their one C didn't play. Perfect night to gobble boards.

It wasn't a negative statement. KAT does lead the league in rebounding and I expected him to get far more than his average against the diminutive lilliputians. Gathering 12 boards would have been underachieving against those oompa loompas.

It was a great trade.

Should have kept Precious too.

Avoiding an overpay to retain IQ was also a good move by the FO.

I don't guys who think we could trade OG understand his position in the pecking order on the Knicks. He's not going anywhere.

I agree and never understood the avalanche of criticism Achiuwa got.

He actually won us a couple of games last season. He was a bit erratic, but he did have some impactful nights.

And now his game is expanding.

To think we let him walk so we could sign Fatsobelly is a real black eye on this FO

Kolek is a pure pg...best passer/vision on the team

Once he gets in rhythm it's like watching five womens' periods sync up

Dammit you are not wrong

Watching that first half it was extremely difficult to predict what was going to come. I was pretty down at halftime, did not see that run coming.

Winning in TOR without Mitch, Deuce and with KAT & Brunson having off nights was huge. Please dont take Kolek out of the rotation again, felt like Brown was panicking instead of letting Kolek play trough some rough spots. the man was a HUGE reason why we won the cup, he promotes ball movement like no one else on the team.
