Understandably, the team looks tired, sluggish and is missing a lot of shots they've been making during the streak.

RJ with the sweet dish!

RJ swishing and dishing!

Would love to see Deuce blow up and score 20+.

RJ likes being the number 2 option, instead of number 3.

I agree. Was a little worried but give him enough time and he can hit wide open 3s. I just realized after Wally said it. But thibs moving deuce in and rose out was a key move defensively for the second unit. Hart is showing you how a more seasoned deuce type player can impact even more in the position. Deuce is now the 10th man but still a valuable player for emerging situations. Hit that 3 alone will keep him in the league because his on ball defense will always be top 10 at the PG position.

Well hello!

Obi standing over RJ like "you tried to Obi it, didn't you?"

Wow just heard the announcers mention how these 2022-2023 Knicks are the 1st team in NY History since dating back to 1972 with two 8+ game winning streaks (in the same season).

This squad group of kids are SPECIAL man.

Only in the 1st Q but not anymore.

They've came out on 🔥🔥🔥🔥 2nd Q with already 17 points in less than 4 minutes.

Like Obi, Deuce has to take more initiative. When he does, good things happen. Just havent seen enough yet

I thought thibs left Randle out there a little too long towards the end of the 1st, BUT I understand he’s trying to maintain the offensive flow while bringing in subs. PLUS Randle been playing the entire 1st I know. But if he’s settling, bringing and not producing like he was earlier, bring in Obi, that’s all I’m saying. Finish the 1st strong.

Hart for 3. Can’t say enough of him. Ultimate glue.

One of Clyde's pet phrases is "they've got a little more pep in their step." LOL

R.J. Barrett is BLAZING only 5 minutes into 2nd Q and already has 12 2nd Quarter points.

and 16 off 6/8 already.

BigDaddyG @ 3/7/2023 8:22 PM
Ha, I guess Terry is just gonna have to grin and Barrett😂
BigDaddyG @ 3/7/2023 8:25 PM
Man, we're keeping them in this with these dumb fouls.
blkexec @ 3/7/2023 8:29 PM
Love the move from Thibs to play RJ more with 2nd unit. He’s in his natural position that way. Some will say he doesn’t have the skills for a #1 option, but he has the DNA.

I never liked him as a third wheel. He’s a rhythm player and feeds off momentum as a volume scorer. His game is built to carry a team, like a running back in football. But playing RJ with 2nd unit is brilliant asset management. Something I complained about with the high picks we’ve had like RJ / obi.

BigDaddyG @ 3/7/2023 8:30 PM
I thought JB was out 😁

Would love to hear the offers for IQ this offseason.
