The last minute of this game has been an ugly-fest for both teams but it looks like NY will pull it out.
Brunson working on his post-game.

Say what now?
Haha yeah those last minutes were shitty but man, Knicks looks like a burgeoning vet team
Man I was kinda digging the post up Randle offense that lead to 3pointers
The end of that game looked like a car crash at the finish line.
Randle clearly looks a step slower. But the late TO aside, this is the kind of game Jules had in 2020 when he was playing more point forward and racking up double digit assists.
Even if he doesnt get that lost step back, Randle demonstrated he can still have an impact on the game if he looks to be a playmaker when his shot isnt falling.
Hard fought win! Always feels good to beat that little prick Young!
Love Brunson to death but he's got to clean up those unforced turnovers! Almost cost us the game with those last two in the final minute! But great game overall bouncing back with 31 and a career high 8 threes. Knew he'd have a big game after the stinker against Boston. Another great game by RJ too! Hit some big shots in the fourth with that driving layup and pull up. And that pass to Randle in the corner for the 3. RJ's been a slow starter but that's two straight big games to start the season! Loved how Randle played as well. The shot and offense are still in preseason mode I think but he didn't force it but almost had a triple double and made two big shots in the fourth and clutch FTs.
Monster game by Rob on the glass with 13 and defensively with 4 steals and 4 blocks. Was a big reason why Young struggled. Nice game by DiVincenzo at both ends too.
Stinker of the game was Hart. Got torched by Bogdanovic all game and had some dumb turnovers and plays.
But good first win on the road! Hawks are going to be one of those teams we'll be battling for homecourt in the playoffs so these wins are important.
It’s like Brunson has no idea how to handle a trap?
We love small sample sizes
Almost the quietest triple double ever
Just wanted to say this is how Randle should play. Move the ball.
Not that quiet. Randle is the one that closed out that game. Made the huge 3 and then got boards and enough at the line when things got stupid at the end.

Good recap, dont forget Grimes. That was a head scratcher from a smart player.
As I said in the gamethread, Grimes seems to be put in a box like Obi was. Grimes hasnt shown the confidence yet in his dribble, why not let him bring up the ball? He's the starting SG, and he barely touches the ball.

Let's just trade IQ and Grimes and start DDV?
