Guess Cleveland gonna have to get used to the "little brother" status for a little longer.
Chandler @ 10/31/2023 9:42 PM
RJ made some tweaks to his shot in last year’s playoff. I forget the specific but i recall it being noted.

Hopefully it helps

GustavBahler @ 10/31/2023 9:47 PM
Great win but we still look too ISO heavy.
KnickDanger @ 10/31/2023 9:47 PM
Rare day for the bench.
GustavBahler @ 10/31/2023 9:51 PM
Deuce looks like a PG this season (and preseason) as opposed to a 3D specialist.
VDesai @ 10/31/2023 9:53 PM
Mitch and Isiah own Evan Mobley
martin @ 10/31/2023 9:53 PM
Knicks D picking up. Second unit dismantled Cavs in second half, looked really good. Dare I say, almost Miami like.
VDesai @ 10/31/2023 9:56 PM
IQ was lethal at the end when the Cavs tried to start a run.

Should be better rested for the back to back tommorow. RJ and Mitch didnt have to play much tonight.

- Mitch/I-Hart we’re animals tonight and Hart with a little offense as well —- Mitch seemed to tip every pass Cavs made early
- RJ scoring/shooting well but passing is a turd and D is sub-par
- Randle is meh but at least he played physically. Has a knack for making wrong play almost 100% of time
- wish both Brunson/IQ would dish a bit more
- Donte after rough start really started moving the ball in 2nd half
- loved the vibe of the Brunson/IQ/Donte/Hart/Hart line-up —- ball/bodies were moving and pace picked up
- Randle for the most part kills any opportunity to consistently play with pace

Mitch REALLY has played well — same for I-Hart

LivingLegend @ 10/31/2023 11:32 PM
5 assists for starting 5 in 134 minutes — dang

Donte 6 in 15 minutes

LivingLegend @ 10/31/2023 11:38 PM
Bad sign for Cleveland with all those guys out that E Mobley goes for 6 points on 3-9 in 29 minutes —- would expect him to step up the scoring there and no FT’s

Strus/Wade were key>………for Knicks

RJ had a quiet 2nd half, thibs was able to rest some guys coming into today. but RJ has been so good on both ends so far. I mean he's been our best player on offense while guarding the best players on D.
VDesai @ 11/1/2023 7:33 AM
Donte needs to get lectured by Clyde and Bill Walton. That guy jumps on every pass attempt he makes. Watching him kinda makes me anxious.

Feel like Mitch is at another level this year. He is playing soooo well. I am surprised at how low he is crouching and getting hands on balls.

Impressive

I don't have the wherewithal to know and follow all the plays during game, these recaps are always good for me

He only has 6 fouls in 4 games and had zero fouls last night. To further illustrate how impressive his defense has been.

Feel like the Knicks are paying particular attention on the defensive side of things especially in these early games. You can see they are scheming against particular players and situations.

Caught first half and I Liked the balance.
Obviously Cavs were short handed.
Im trying to see what knicks are working on/thru.
Im focused on What RJ is doing with the ball when he does not shoot. The game si slowing down for him.
His reads are better this season. The Shooting and getting to the line is great, but playmaking is improving.
Brunson looks like he did not do much but rest presason. Its coming.
Mitch just looks solid physically and playing smarter. Unless Ihart is looking for starting money I’d hate to see him leave. He is a current bargain for us. Hope we can keep him.

Knicks definitely trying lots of different things. Second video. We would have never seen this from Grimes last year.
