Chance to lock up at least the 3 seed tonight as they have tie breaker with Cleveland. No Hartenstein tonight. Don't mess around and get off to a fast start and bury the Nets early.
By not even bothering to play Harstein, that told me they don't care. I know he has a minutes resctiction, but come on. That move is so unlike Thibs.
That's because it's an organizational decision, not Thibs'.
And 50 wins is not the point. This is a big game for very practical purposes. As things stand, if the Knicks lose tonight, they are looking at a real possibility of dropping to the 4th seed, even if they win Sunday.
how we never play for the 2-for-1 possession at the end of a quarter?
It depends on the situation, i dont like when a team with 35 seconds just comes down and chucks a 3, if Brunson is hot, sure, but id rather get a good shot
Pacers-Cavs game is big for determining Knicks' first round
Of course you can afford both. Half the Celtics roster is making 35 + mill.

And they care about that.
And offense!

My take is that if Pacers lose, Knicks are going to get the Sixers, either as the 2-7 or the 3-6.
Happens all the time in the NBA, especially on back to backs and missing 2 rotation players who are replace by 2 net zeros
Knicks by 4, 5 seconds left. Brunson was fouled on the inbounds after the Nets last basket (bit of a hard shove but not flagrant). Made both.
He didn’t foul - Cam launched himself into Mitch. Just one of many bitch moves that the NBA allows. Along with flopping.
That’s some culture with a capital C right there
Didnt you hear, Marks thinks they can get more superstars there and that they all want to play for the Nets
If all goes to form, the Knicks' seed will be determined by the outcome of the Bucks-Magic game, but the opponent will be the Sixers either way.
If Magic win, they win three-way tie that pushes Sixers to 7th.
If Magic lose, Pacers win the two-way tie that pushes Sixers to 6th.
Will say that the Hawks are good enough to pull an upset and beat the Pacers in Indy. Haven't figured those outcomes.
And, of course, open to correction.
