It may not matter if it’s OG or Mikal guarding Cade in the PnR well, it’ll matter what KAT is doing behind it that make OG or Mikal get back to his guy.

I’m right about Lopez, right?

Another thing I heard Fred Katz mention this week is if you put Josh on Ausar, Ausar is great at crashing the glass and Josh is not a box out guy. Josh gets boards by ball pursuit and hustle and not traditional box out. Teams gave attacked that by crashing board's with Josh's man.

You might also see Ausar guard Josh, because that will give Ausar the freedom to roam off Josh to create havoc in the passing lanes and on help (i.e how we want to use OG).

That would mean Cade on Brunson - a big guy and an improved defender, but someone you would expect Brunson to cook. Or at least need Brunson to cook in a playoff series.

I want to see them pick up Cade as soon as the ball is inbounded. Make him work, first playoff series for Cade. We want to make him feel the pressure.

Pressure.......I want him to feel PAIN! I want him to have bloody nose from anxiety, not contact. I want Cade to enter a dark room and feel fear as if OG is there with him. Even when he is sleeping.

For Timmy Jr? Twice a knick. Timmy has made a lot of money but did not make it here. I want him to doubt his manhood in MSG.
Malik Beasley? Dude got some heavy domestic issues and I don't condone his family in pain, but if his shooting is off, I won't gloat too much.

Coach Bickerstaff? I hope that COY votes (he'll finish after Atkinson and or Mark Daigneault)feels good after getting swept.

Pressure.........Its ****ing Detroit. Pressure is on them!

Another masterclass in coaching last night

Another masterclass in coaching last night

For once you said something I agree with. But he adjusted last night and was brilliant. 9 man rotation. Who said old dogs can’t learn new tricks.

Sat Mikal was the right move. Moving him to the bench permanently, is what I want, but clearly the wrong move. Starting Mitch is what I want but clearly the wrong move. Thibs deserves his flowers and I don’t mind giving him his flowers.

Pray for health and strength for OG and JB. Two key players we need to win moving forward. And can’t forget cam Payne. Delon who? Cam Payne shut all that noise down and glad he did. This team needs clutch performers and that’s been cam all season. Props to cam.

Same rotation Thibs has been using since Mitch got back. I’d say the win was more about Cam than Thibs. He did a good job though.

oh you got me!

I said Thibs did a good job. A coaching “masterclass” is what you call winning a 7 game series vs Boston. The kind of coaching we see from Spoelstra. We held serve, Thibs did a good job, on to the next one.
