Just love it. And now Mitch is back and coming off bench.

I’m of the opinion that iHart better overall defender than Mitch, while Mitch more athletic and physically intimidating, iHart got the IQ.

Knicks still missing one of THE best defenders in league too in OG 😅😳

So it’s true. Knicks have a real identity and I can’t wait until OG comes back hopefully healthy and we finally see it all together. Even without Randle, the Brunson plus defense rotation works really well.

Its why I wasn't sold on giving OG all the credit for our defensive run with him. we have the makings of a very good defensive team overall and obviously a great defensive coach. And lets be real Randle not playing improves our defense also. Mitch and OG can hopefully take us to another level.

RJ and Randle out of starting lineup has helped the defense.

iHart for Mitch has raised defensive (and offensive) ceiling IMHO

I think you could even make the case that DDV for Grimes has also changed the landscape of D for the starting unit. Different types of defenders for sure.

Mitch and Grimes anchored a top defense 2 years ago here, they are different kind of defenders.

but I think overall we always had the makings of a good defensive team even before the OG trade.

Randle is really our worst defender now in the starting lineup and really on the team rotation if Bogs isn't getting significant minutes.

Ime Udoka makes play in he could have some COY love. Impressive run they have been on and Sangune has been out.
