It's always nice to beat LeBum! I still hate him since 2010 and that's never ever going to change LOL!

MUCH BETTER defensive effort holding the Lakers to 109 points on 42% from the field and 13/41 from three. Game ball goes to Hartenstein with career high 17 rebounds with 7 offensive! Randle and Brunson also deserve kudos. Both made huge shots in the 4th. Especially that three by Randle on the left wing with the shot clock about to expire (posted by Todd) after the LeBum fast break dunk.

2-2 on this trip with a great chance of ending it with a winning record tomorrow in Brooklyn!

I was really happy to see old man Taj diving on the floor for a loose ball. He's still getting back into game shape and it will take some time to get his timing back with the roster but he's still got game.
Jules has really upped his game since that huge half in Milwaukee. Knicks gotta keep grinding out those wins!

Sims has been very meh but I don’t want to take I-Hart out of his bench role.

1) he’s playing fine coming off the bench
2) Taj can start and support the other starters for 10-15
3) we’ve already moved DD out of bench group - moving I-Hart out I think impacts that unit significantly

So while not ideal I say just see what Taj has to start and go from there. Don’t think we want to start grinding I-Hart into 35-38 minutes every night - may not be good for longer term

Also have option against certain team (Nets?) to start Jules/J-Hart at 4 & 5 - maybe Thib goes that way if opposition doesn’t have strong post up big (ex Claxton).

I admit I went to bed during Lakers comeback early in 4th quarter- I had to sleep and probably didn’t wish to suffer. I’ll accept the shame badge. Checked the result in the middle of the night and went back to sleep quite content. It probably isn’t a healthy thing the way Knick wins and losses affect my outlook….

Anyway, super nice end to a west coast trip with bumps (to be expected) - beating Lebron led Lakers on their home court to go with Brunson’s 50 points taking KD’s Suns…pretty damn satisfying.

Lots of positives- Randle, JB, IQ, thank goodness for IHart, better defense last night…. Minor bitch - Cam telling reporters his time here was affected by “playing favorites “ - just shut the f@#k up….

Like I was talking about last night. I understand this position in general but in reality this is not what is happening. Sims has expectedly played so bad vs starting bigs that Hart has had to come in early anyway. This mean Hart is still not playing his normal role. So why are we still hesitating to start him? He started the 2nd half due to Sims injury and everything went fine. By forcing Sims to starts we are digging ourselves into a hole for no reason. We can't expect him to go from DNPs to playing vs the best. Hart did fine starting so let him start and hopefully we can get more out of Sims off the bench.

There was a weird armpit phase too. Maybe the Bot is just feeling his way through this all
