If Josh Hart trade don’t happen, Knicks get swept but for any Brunson explosions.

These are what I wanted them minutes to look like all season. Thibs coached an amazing game. If the Cavs keep relying on heavy minutes for their starters it only benefits us the longer this series goes.

Thibs would have played Brunson 96 minutes today if no foul trouble.

Ooh. This bodes well.

the only reason those minutes were low for those key players is foul trouble and Randle being winded so soon because he was coming off a leg injury.

I am sure we will see them creep up as the series goes on.

The Hart 3-point dagger on 1 leg —- what a tough kid.

I thought RJ played solid D tonight and tried to mostly make the right play (6 assists )

Dude was afraid to shoot but glad he did other things

That’s possible.

He hit the one three pointer that was big.

I just had a very scary thought - RJ is turning into Elfrid Payton!

Right but without the ability to dribble

They're not counting IQ in these stats. I would think he had more points that Hart

Hart was the FO's apology to Thibs for Cam.

They corrected that mistake quite nicely. We can say moving Kemba for the Brunson cap space was equally as good. It’ll be interesting to see how they maneuver Fournier this summer

Just realized how crappy a job the Cavs did of getting the ball,out of Brunson’s hands and not allowing him to get it back.

Cam someone post Obi post game outfit - kid going Kyle Kuzma on us.

Yeah, he can get away with it the way he's been playing lately.

Are there 2 or 3 other guys in the league that play similar to Josh H that we might be able to make a run at?
He is pretty unique - very few guys that do so many different things well.

Trying to think…….

- Marcus Smart & Draymond but they would not be available
- Caruso
- less all-around but still impactful Herb Jones and Lou Dort

I swap RJ for Herb in a nano-sec

So fun to watch when he’s out running and knocking shots down —- easy to root for
