To foul or not to foul, that is the question?

I say...do not foul.

Because we have flow killing, turnover prone ball hogs who don't play defense

Excellent game from Porzingis and Noah had a lot of impact on defense, but didn't play in the second half?

Drummond was out because they were down late, so Horny went small. Smart move.

Ever since Hornacek told the team to look for KP more, both the team and KP have answered the call. Showed Towns like versatility. Holiday has really surprised me. Early on he looked like a THJ clone. Didnt take him long to figure out (unlike THJ) that he had to do more than jack up shots.

Noah had a great game, but he really looks like he's having trouble moving his feet.

Last time we played Detroit - their small ball combo forwards Tobias Harris and Marcus Morris tore up the Knicks on the wing. Will Hornacek go small to combat that lineup? It'd be nice to have a healthy Lance Thomas for this game, because both Harris and Morris are too big for Justin Holiday.

Maybe N'Dour can be called upon?

Also last game, KP was in a good rhythm but Hornacek sat him for the first nine minutes of the 4th quarter. Hopefully we'll see better rotation management tonight!

Jennings also had a solid game - hopefully he comes out inspired tonight.

Let's go!

Go for 3!!!

Melo as the 2nd option. Team looked good the D was good until the end.

The team is growing. Nice win against a gritty team.

We may have seen the beginning of the KP era in New York tonight. He was the 1st option; he was getting MVP chants; he took over the game; he had the killer instinct. The torch may have been passed tonight, and the legend that is KP has finally emerged--the savior in the form of a unicorn lol

KP finally has the strength and confidence to go along with his talent level. He had the complete game going: 3 ball, mid range, post up,alley oop dunks, drives and blocks. He is comfortable in his game right now and has raised his level of play. It's only going to get better.

BTW, the Pistons played well tonight and are a playoff quality team with great coaching. They did not go away and made some big shots, but we were just better. Great win to build off of.

Could not have said it any better. All hail the new KP, or unicorn King.
