Would love to see iHart guard Jokic as he's shown great ability to defend Embiid. Gonna be tough to stop him with our undersized bigs.

Knicks probably planned this several games ago, keeping iHart out.

This way Denver can’t scout iHart on Jokic and Knicks have an advantage going into a finals matchup.

Bank on it.

If iHart doesn't play, I'm expecting to see OG find his way to Jokic on occasion. This is a super tough matchup, but Knicks have played them really well last year. iHart was a big part of the 2nd game especially. 5th game of a very tough road trip for Denver that has included games against Philly, Boston, Indy

Jokic raised iHart pretty much. I don't think there any surprises.

We got OG, that’s the surprise

Maybe make Joker get 75 on Sims, Precious - try to shut down his passing lanes and have OG guard Murray.

Problem is Joker will get his 75 and everyone else will also get theirs.

I live in Denver so really want to be damn Nuggets — hoping for great game for Knicks.

If I have to choose prefer Sat win vs Heat but 2 wins would be so nice.

if Ihart is out i'd like see OG guarding Jokic for stretches, I think we can go small and have a pretty potent lineup with OG at the 5.

Why do I feel like I remember Sims doing a good job guarding Jokic?

Houston beat Denver 3 times this season. Curious what their approach is.
This is the Randle.

They're just good at lulling teams into complacency, I guess.

The nip on that one nugget is as nice as the rain in Spain that stays mainly in the plain

Sengun put some big #s back at Jokic - maybe he was a big factor
