Going to the game tonight. Pretty pumped

Let's send the Hornets 3 games back and inch up half a game in front of Boston!
No lamelo and Hayward  
nygiants16 : 4/20/2021 3:48 pm : link
and Graham has been out the past couple of games so i dont know if he is still out.
I love this team,  
Leg of Theismann : 4/20/2021 3:50 pm : link
and the fact I actually really like these guys as people makes rooting for them that much more fun, and it makes the winning streak that much more fun.

Have to say I also love how with the NBA when your team is winning it's great that you don't have to wait an entire week to watch them again lol-- I woke up mad excited this morning, all day been looking forward to both this game and tomorrow's game.

Also, there's a possibility that this game might be postponed pending what occurs in the next hour or so. The NBA sent a letter recently saying that there might be postponements.

the same thing. All games are "subject to postponement" per the league office.

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.

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

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

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

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..

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!

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.

Crazy right? What a fit. He's been excellent.

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).


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

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..

Haha I’m glad I’m not the only one aggravated by it, several hours before tipoff

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.
