I'll tske RJ just like he's playing now.

Cavs are gonna come out with a game 2 type effort in the second half.

When RJ makes quick decisions like has been, he's hard to stop.

Third quarter will tell a huge tale. We don't need a repeat of the 3Q stinker we had on Sunday as we won't have the home crowd in the 4th Quarter tonight.

That’s a mis match for all of our bigs. Mobley too light. Jump in his body and he’s not strong enough to explode or jump as high. He’s going to be a beast as he gains more grown man strength. But in this series, he looks soft in the paint but agile side to side and long. Not sure he had any offensive impact all series.

Terrible news with Randle. When him and IQ was on, we look unstoppable. Thank God we have Leon Rose who kept this depth instead of trading them. Our backups at every position understand the flow and usually provides extra energy. Looks like thibs needs to work on some small ball. Good time for deuce in a small ball defensive lineup.

Deuce would be nice to see. On Mitchell, I want to see some more of that sticky D

Deuce starts knocking down the 3, he should get more PT.

Wow... I was really wrong about Donovan Mitchell coming in hot.

The announcers on NBAtv said it is but they didn't seem certain. I can't get the MSG feed. Did they mention it?

It's always us getting the injuries. Especially when it seemed like Julius finally broke out of his slump.

Yo Todd, Knicks cheerleaders.
franco12 @ 4/26/2023 8:20 PM
there it is OBI!
Alpha1971 @ 4/26/2023 8:20 PM
I just wish they had added a back up 4 for the playoffs Incase of an injury. Oh well
franco12 @ 4/26/2023 8:20 PM
and there was obi!
GustavBahler @ 4/26/2023 8:20 PM
Randle doubtful
GustavBahler @ 4/26/2023 8:21 PM

Great question!!!

Also bottom quote answers my question on which ankle. He’ll be out for a while. He needs to play with a better wrap job and stay on the ground more. He can still stretch the floor but until he’s healthy, I would not jump in traffic.

Old man box out rebounds. Y’all know that old dude in the park who can box out dudes twice his weight. We need Jules even at 70%


“Julius Randle is down & seems to be grabbing his left ankle. Randle missed 2 weeks at the end of the season due to a left ankle sprain”

Obi has a sweet midrange pullup
Clean @ 4/26/2023 8:23 PM
Leaking Obi is back baby.
VDesai @ 4/26/2023 8:23 PM
Mitchell Robinson playing volleyball with himself. Amazing
Clean @ 4/26/2023 8:25 PM
Obi is so fast. Watching a replay Garland was near him at the start of the leak and by the time he dunked it Garland was no where near him.
VDesai @ 4/26/2023 8:25 PM
Brunson forcing that one
