NY started off 5-8 throughout 13 games last year.

A win tonight vs. Milwaukee gets us to 8-4 after 12 games.

A win tonight to improve to 8-4 after 12 would become an awesome start to our season.

No Middleton? Chances are no Brook Lopez? Milwaukee on the road? On a back to back? I like our chances.

We played scared of Giannis last round. Settled way too often for a deep shot and dug ourselves in a hole. Got better when we started driving.

Giannis deserves respect of course, but let Randle hang out on the perimeter. RJ, Fournier, Kemba, Rose attack the rim. Jrue's d is great, but he can't guard everyone. If Giannis falls off Julius to protect the lane then we need to make the quick pass, hopefully Randle's 3 is working.

I'm not scared of Thanasis.

Who we got out tonite? The twin towers? MSG can chant "MVP" all night but Giannis is clearly a big step ahead of Randle.
Milwaukee even with Middleton and BroPez out are dangerous. Even more so when wounded and out of sorts.

Giannis guarded RJ down the stretch. RJ still finished strong when open. No, he did not "school" Giannis. WE won nice.
When he left RJ to cover the ball found its way to the open man. Im really enjoying RJ's slow ascent.
I don't have the bravado and hubris as some of you.
Past performance does not insure future returns. Our bigs are down or hurt. Perhaps this makes me less of a fan by some accounts? Thats funny actually.
I will root for them to win. I want them to win. I hope they win. But my expectation is this team is inconsistent. If we are not, it will be evident on the court, not my
"Sisk-Boom-Bah" pom pom child like tickle fest.
Im thrilled we 7-3 and I don't have to be convinced of anything for me to enjoy this. In fact, you don't hear me whining about a damn thing!

Let Giannis score 50 and stay home on their shooters. Do not help off Grayson Allen, Connaughton or Nwora no matter what!

I hope Taj and Jericho are ready to hold the fort down. I’d rather see Mitch and Nerlens take as much time as they need to get right.

Focus tonight is on getting Julius his shots. I want to see RJ take it to Allen.
