about how much better this team would be with either Miles Bridges or Mikal Bridges instead of fucking Kevin Knox.

I think we all had a bad feeling about the Knox pick. Frank, too. Amazing we’re playing this well with almost no contributions from either.
Can't wait for Burks to get back

Serious hair question - is that how he wears his hair when he's not on the job? Or does it morph into a more rounded Fro of some kind? And he sort of puts it up when he's playing. Doesn't really matter but just curious.
RJs 3pt shooting since his rough start

You have to pick it out really carefully and see what you have. It's a juggernaut.
As of now, the Knicks have a better winning percentage  
dpinzow : 4/20/2021 9:50 pm : link
than the Dallas Mavericks. Nobody would have thought that this far into the season
Loved how strong RJ came out in the second half

Dominated the second half. Right now the 6th seed.

Hawks tomorrow.
So often the first 5 minutes of the 2nd half are so huge  
Stu11 : 4/20/2021 9:55 pm : link
Last 2 games they totally changed the tone of the games
RJ is going to be a star.  
larryflower37 : 4/20/2021 9:57 pm : link
20 years old and he is unfazed, never gets down.
League is going to wake up to him with this run and playoffs
The fact we somehow lost ALL these games still annoys me.  
guitarguybs12 : 4/20/2021 9:59 pm : link
Celtics - Tied / 54.6s Left
Timberwolves - Up 1 / 55.9s Left
76ers - Up 1 /56.3s Left

1 or 2 would be a nice standings buffer as we enter the hard stretch.

Give IQ a ton of credit  
Stu11 : 4/20/2021 9:59 pm : link
His 17 in the 1st half were huge. Kept us in it. Charlotte shot 13 of 19 from 3 and outrebounded us 20-13. With those #'s you usually find yourself down 15 or more.
The way Rj is able  
nygiants16 : 4/20/2021 9:59 pm : link
to just forget about bad quarters/halves and come out andnjust all of sudden dominate is crazy...He can look totally out of sorts and then all of sudden he catches fire..

Tomorrow night is biggest game of the season..
They are starting to learn how to put teams away when leading  
steve in ky : 4/20/2021 10:01 pm : link
Earlier in the season they blew a lot of leads which cost them some wins, but now they are weathering the other teams runs and wins are coming more consistently.


This is a fun group to root for!

My family is mostly black folks, Puerto Rican and really dark Sicilians with brillo on my mom's side. So my brothers, cousins, etc always had some crazy style.

I had a Jamaican cousin who had an unbelievable afro back in the day that he always picked out and carved up. His head was later chopped off with a machete in Jamaica in a drug retaliation. He got deported one day, two days later, head chopped off. Left two kids who also have great hair.

My teammates at Cuse shaved my head in 1996 - no joke, remember it like it was yesterday - so I've just stuck with that for 25 years!

for DSJ and some crappy second rounder. Leon and Co. are making a great first impression, even with Obi struggling.
RJ Barrett....  
guitarguybs12 : 4/20/2021 10:33 pm : link
For the season is shooting 39.1% from 3.

Since the start of 2021 is shooting 42.3% from 3.

Is shooting **45.1%** from 3 since his 0 for 5 game on January 11th (after which he was 9 for 50 (18%) to start the season).
RJ’s shooting has been remarkable.  
bceagle05 : 4/20/2021 10:39 pm : link
I would’ve settled for improved FT shooting this season, which we’ve gotten. But nah, he decided to solve the three-point issue as well. Very easy guy to root for - no passive aggressive Instagram shit when Thibs benched him in a few fourth quarters earlier this year. All business.

Shows that hard work pays off. No one just magically becomes a better shooter. He must've spent the summer working like a dog on his shot.

While there is still SOME mitigation based on what Kp produces in Dallas, it was a home run in terms of assets.

Bullock has been a silent 3 and D assassin for us. D Rose and Taj have been fucking incredibly more than what we thought they would be. Barrett's stop and pop has become where I am surprised if he misses.

Contrary to my sticking up for him, Payton was awful tonight. Like really bad. Its rough to replace his points per game but I think Burks and Bullock are enough combined with IQ'S minutes at this point.

Im puzzled why Thibs doesnt roll with the hot hands more often and sticks to his stupid uninstinctive math which has gotten him in trouble before.

If IQ is nailing 3s, leave him in there! If Taj is dominating boards (like he was tonight) leave him in there.

I love Thibs, but he is SO formulaic.
Such a big game tonight  
nygiants16 : 4/21/2021 7:42 am : link
Hawks have some scorers and shooters on their team and with Collins and Capela they are beasts on the boards.

Knicks have beaten them twice already but this will be a tough game, Hawks play zero defense so the Kbicks should be able to score..

I think if Knicks can turn this into a physical game they will win, if it is a shootout i think they will lose..

Multiple teams are saying the Indiana Pacers are listening to pitches on Malcolm Brogdon and are monitoring Domantas Sabonis as well. On Brogdon, the belief is the Pacers feel Caris LeVert can man the point guard adequately enough should they get a real deal for Brogdon, who’s in the second year of a four-year, $85 million contract. The Clippers have been scouring the league for more point guard help, so add his name to the list with Lonzo Ball, Terry Rozier, Ricky Rubio and George Hill.
Caris LeVert?

Hopefully the Knicks do what they have done lately. Hang with these teams and shoot high % from 3 first half half, then put the clamps down second half and 4th. Give up 65 first half. 40 second. Win. Teams can't match the Knicks defensive intensity. I don't even the Knicks themselves can match it for the entire game, but they if they play sound for most and then go super hero D that one quarter, it's been working in this streak.
