Crazy eyes!

Jules needs to attack Portis. RJ... He needs to use his fouls wisely. Maybe make a layup or two.

maybe Thibs will implement a wall or some other tactic to slow down the Freak

Giannis is shooting nearly 70% from the floor and 40% from three. They could build the Great Wall and it still ain't stopping him.

They play Brook at the top of the key against other strong bigs to pull our bigs out. If you can trap him between the 3 and the ft line he shot 29% there last season. I’ll take my chances with him jacking 3s. Body him up and keep him out of the paint. This is Randle’s challenge though I think Barrett will need to get in there.

I am inclined to push for BBRRR in extended minutes just to keep bigger bodies on Johnny.

I think it'll be a close game but outside of Giannis it just feels as if we're a deeper team especially off the bench.

Hold Greek Freak to under 25 points and I think the Knicks can run them out of their own gym.

Counting on our TRIO of PG Brunson Wing RJ and PF Julius Randle to all bring their electricity tonight.

I recall Thibs not putting D.Rose bench lineup on the court in the 2nd half of the Hornets game
Yes. yes we need to tighten up the DEFENSE !!!
