Knicks role players outside of Hart need to step up. Quickley, Barrett, and Grimes are overwhelmed by the moment and need to figure it out.
Little boxing out under the rim to end the half.
IQ and Grimes need to make the Cavs put them on the line. Grimes rarely goes coast to coast, looks to give up the ball at halfcourt. They both need to look for their shot more. Obi should be getting more PT. Randle is drifting.

Yeah. Just need to play our game. Take care of the ball. Rebound. Cover 3 point shooters. We need a scorer to wake up. Grimey,IQ someone. j Hart is hurt but playing good d and taking good shots. I hope our youth follows suit
before the playoffs when I said this is the moment of truth for Thibs. This is what I meant. The Cavs have adjusted. Now it's time to adjust back and find something that works. Lets see how he does.

Yep 100%. This is what coaching is all about. I hope Thibs has grown
Quick also needs to get his game right because that extention amount is going down if this keeps up.
I would sit hart and put in deuce. I rather lose with deuce playing vs re-injury to hart. We need him to win the series, not the game. Cavs did what they said they would do. Seems like whoever hits first wins. Plus the refs suck and are unpredictable. They call a foul when there’s no foul and don’t call a foul when there’s a foul. On both ends.

Good point. Maybe Deuce can give some quality defense.I don't want Hart to go down

With IQ and Grimes not chipping in on offense, IDK if we can spare him for a sub that doesnt do much scoring. Deuce can get hot from 3, but its been a while.
Come on, single digits before the 4th q

It looks like Garland took it personally.
I guess RJ has more in common with DeRozan than we thought. Hopefully he decides to show up in the playoffs.
Let’s see if we can take a punch
Time to see if we’re tough
Randle needs to be more aware of Cavs near the rim. Too many easy buckets.
How is Darius Garland constantly getting fouled?
Yeah im about to turn off the tv
