Yes! This match up with Atlanta is going to look a lot different now with Brunson. Trae cannot just relax on defense! And you know Brunson is going to attack and bully him into the paint! Really looking forward to it!
The team defense and especially the close out D needs to be a lot better. It's been awful the last 3 games. Gotta hit the FTs too cause this should be a close game.

Yeah, but whose gonna guard Murray? He's shooting 40% from three. Grimes returns, hopefully. We'll probably need the extra fouls.
absolutely basic level stuff but interesting number comparisons
Hope the Knicks play with a chip on their shoulder. Trae talking a lot of ish about the Knicks, Christmas games, always talking. Hope Brunson can shut him up. Going to be a physical game. Important for Mitch to win his matchup. Or Hart will get more PT tonite.
Wish Mitch would lower his center of gravity when he boxes out. Make it harder to get pushed out of the blocks.

Could foul trouble be a problem for JB in this one?

Don't worry. This will be known as the "Rose and Cam" game throughout the rest of the season. We got this. Pube head will get his comeuppance!

Maybe that will do. Was she a cheerleader? Thought she was a model.

This was a one off from the Paul/Silva fight. She does traditional modeling as well.
I want to see Deuce on Trae for like 15 mins
Not to jinx this game- but Atlanta has yet to beat a good team- last year they started slow. we’ll definitely bring out the best in them. 3pt defense is crucial!
If Trae & Murry get Brunson & Rose into early foul trouble I want Deuce to get some playing time against trae & Murry. The game the other night when both MitchRob & Hart caught 2 fouls in the first quarter, coach Thibs refuse to give a NBA ready Sims any playing time to show our opponents how deep we are at the center position.
Thibs has always been a weird substitution coach !!!
Robinson beastin' and feastin'.
Randle is a poor transitional player on both ends of the court !!!
Talk is cheap. The reality is that Trae owns us until we start beating him regularly or in a truly meaningful (playoff) series.
