Kemba, only thing bad is he gettng to the rim late in the game. At below 6 feet he does not have that burst. I suspect his 3 pt shooting will cool off a bit. Its off the charts. Thibs closing him or Rose out is a tough call.

Knicks as are most teams a work in progress still.
I predict they will blow games. Why? Its the NBA. teams blow leads.

IQ: I think we painted a too rosy scenario. Some of you had him “certaiin future allstar”. Not yet. The bump foul think took a weapon from him and his playmaking is also a work in progress. Fournier has that nice two man game with Randle which IQ needs to emulate. He does not have the height though to get that long three off like Evan does.

Love OBI’s block on the 3pt attempt!

Im ok if we never offer Lavine a contract. He is for sure more diciplined and a fine talent. So was Jamal Crawford. Guys that can get any shot off they want vs. a more fundamental based guy like Fournier that can play within a team concept. Not to say Lavine can never ever evolve. He has to some extent.

I was really pissed off while watching, but checking the highlighs it's worth mentioning that we didn't execute as bad as it felt during the game. Two good 3pt shots missed by fournier, two FT that randle won't miss again, etc.

I'm going for the second time in my life to the garden on the 20th against the rockets, really excited to see this young and ferocious team.

BING BONG

RJ continues to grow and is on his way to becoming one of the premier two way players in the league. DeRozan is a tough cover who has made a living off those type of shots and RJ locked him down when it counted! RJ is also finishing a lot better so far. Kemba gives us a weapon on offense at PG we haven't had since probably Linsanity. Rob is going to have to start wearing Timbs. Him hurting his ankle every other game is getting annoying. Hopefully he can stay healthy cause he's playing well.

I'm not concerned too much about these late game collapses. I think it's more of the team not being in sync yet. As long as we come away with wins, that is all the matters. We dominated the undefeated Bulls for 45 minutes of that game. It's the NBA and teams will always make a run but I think it would help if we stop the Randle Iso late in the game. Only do it if he's having a good game scoring. But last night wasn't his night and Lonzo/Caruso were frustrating him. Randle kind of made it personal and tried to prove those guys couldn't guard him and normally they cannot but last night wasn't his night. Move the ball, run some pick and rolls, get some good shots.

Enjoy it guys! We're 4-1!

Kemba with 18 three pointers so far this season.
Elf had 29 all last year...

Where the Kemba haters at?

He's moved onto Quickley.

We are 4 - 1. Just beat an undefeated team on the road after beating two good teams in the Celtics and Sixers. Past Knicks teams would have blown the lead instead of "hanging on" (as negatively reported). Call me a "homer" (hell yes I am) but I am tired of the lazy pot shot narrative as concerns our team. Of course these putzes are the first on the bandwagon when they see the wind has definitively shifted.

I like listening to Alan Hahn though. A hundred times more thorough but not looking through rose colored glasses at all times.

Just listen to Knicks fan tv, or Jonathon macri/Knicks film school post game coverage, or the strick.land podcast- you don’t need to listen to BS like moose and Maggie anymore

Appreciate the recommendations -- but what would I biotch about then?!

Micheal dumbass Kay doing the same thing on WEPN now...douche on....

Love those postgame shows with Hahn and Wally Szerbiac, that whole crew gets honestly excited about the good crap, while not going all-out Sterling homer. Can hardly ever find them after a game anymore. They blacking out postgame shows now?

WFAN is a freakin waste of electrons.

Last night game was the first game Randle as a Knicks did not shoot over 15 shots per game.
Randle played 35 min and only took a 11 shots, in the first half of the game Randle took 4 shots.
The Bulls coach & players were expecting Randle to play Hero-Ball and take his usual 20 shots or more last night, which probably would've resulted in a Knicks loss.
Randle grab 16 rebs, and passed out 9 Dimes helping a well orchestrated Knicks team ball-movement, and Iso-plays, plus the Knicks shot 75% from the 3-Ball line 15-20 WOW !!!
Carmelo Anthony never would've did that for the win SMH

That can be construed as anti Melo but really he was not programmed to fill up the stat sheet. MElo is a HOF top tier scorere. Randle is not the scorer Melo was. Randle did what was neeed to win the game. Melo was needed for buckets.
Bulls doubled Randle daring others to win the game. They did. He passed out of them.
Everything went wrong at the end of the game and what happend, knicks stils won. `
