🎙️LET ME SPELL IT OUT🎙️

N) Only loss to BOS (1x) we were w/o both Josh Hart (1-0 vs. BOS) & Mitchell Robinson (1-0 vs. BOS).

Y) Beat them with Tatum/Brown (1x).

K) Beat them with Tatum/Smart (1x).

M) No Jalen Brunson?

My Mentality?

🗽TONIGHT IS THE NIGHT WHERE IT'S IQ's TIME-2-SHINE ON ESPN @ BOSTON TONIGHT 🗽

IQ not only has an opportunity to solidify himself as an NBA True 6th Man of the Year Contender but also to show Coach Thibs he's both Closer + STARTER Quality.

This is what makes Thibs great. He's throwback and old-school. He makes his developing kids work hard for every opportunity he'll give them and once that opportunity comes? He's already made sure they're prepared for it.

And tonight?.

It's coach Thibs telling IQ here's your opportunity kid and I already know you're going to give it your all for your teammates.

Keep this game close 1st half.

Head into Halftime with Confidence knowing we're competing without Jalen Brunson.

And we'll punch Boston in the mouth (2nd half) and win this game.

IQ for the win.

I have McBride as my 9the man for minutes. I’d like to see him getting minutes against Marcus Smart. See if he can pick up anything. I see a lot of similarities between them.

IQ/McBride
Grimes/jHart
Barrett/
Randle/Toppin
Robinson/jHart

Against the Celtics (3 games) last season
35.0 PPG
6.7 3PG

Just in case we need a sleeper tonight!

Going to have to have IQ, Grimes and Obi bring it this eve..

RJ got to step up tonight. Feeling good about what you'll get from Randle and Quick, but that's damn near 30 points we've been getting from JB that we've got to account for.

Or you know, we've got Evan Celtic-killer Fournier just waiting on the bench...

This is a big opportunity for McBride. To get back some of the minutes he lost to JHart.

6 minutes into the game and he's 3/4 FG + 1/2 from 3 with 7 Points, 2 Rebounds and 1 Assist (to Julius Randle for the 3).

And our Knicks up 15-12 right now because of it.
