More of that Heat Culture. People need to count how many dirty things Bam does.

Mitch playing point center.

The alley oops off the glass would be glorious.

Playoffs all about adjustments and you just check mated league with the above.

I thought all 3 Nova guys were sloppy on both ends early with physical/mental lapses but damn ALL 3 were flawless in the 2nd half.

Bogie showing some encouraging signs. With Randle done for the year, his importance has elevated a bit. Need to get him as right as possible. Burks can go situational himself tho.

Mitch is playing himself off the team. I think he'll get better but after watching Hartenstein for months, Mitch's negative aspects are just so glaring. The stone hands and FT shooting just ain't it.

Yes - OG news (wonderful/hopeful), Bogie finding his touch though he seems to be a big negative when it comes to the +/-, Mitch really needs to be something other than a big lunk (yes he’s been injured but after watching months of I-Hart playing coherent offensive basketball Mitch looks brutal in every aspect). Keep bringing him a long but against many match-ups Precious may be a better option.

Is it me or does Mikal seem potentially within reach now - given Net implosion?

Those aren't oops, they free throws

Sometimes you draft Davion at #9, and sometimes you get the same but better player at #36 with Deuce? That sound about right?

Congress meeting to discuss Mitch free throw sightings.

Deuce is one of the soundest defenders in the league - only limited by size but always in right spot and tough as a wolverine.

The above along with his 3-point reliability does makes Davion look like a g-leaguer.

Refs have gone from calling every soft foul for YEARS to now completely swallowing the whistle for 98% of contact. The other 2% they blow fantom calls —- very sketch league.

Worries me that Dolan has a hair on his ass with Silver and the league.

I don’t know much about anything Brooklyn but they got no 2024 picks, Claxton as an UFA, and $10M in cap space without resigning Claxton. This summer is when they can ask for as much as they want from the Knicks, and it would include McBride and lots and lots of picks IMHO

Short version - energy and intensity. We started slow but once we turned it on it was game over.

Highlight - bumping into Kurt Thomas on 33rd and 8th and giving him a big ole Knicks hug

If Jalen Green and the majority of their picks back didnt persuade them then I'm not sure what we have to offer to get Bridges.

One really cool thing is the interaction between Brunson and his dad on time outs. Rick doesn’t participate in huddles but he and Jalen always talk before the game starts again and it can get really animated. Rick hovers around the scorers table and Jalen walks over to his Dad before play restarts

NYStateOfMind @ 4/4/2024 11:49 PM
Mitch/JR/Deuce or OG/Mitch/Deuce & 2 or 3 picks? But, I'm not sure he fits a team need anymore IF OG gets healthy or he is in the trade. Mikal is a warrior games played wise. Is it time to push for Zion to replace JR? Pelicans have lost 4 of 5 against good teams recently, he might think his team isn't it any longer, especially after a 1st round exit or play-in boot. I still dream of an in shape Zion on the Knicks. ha-ha

McBride isn’t going for Chamberlain —- just like we turned down Bird for Grimes but seriously I can’t let Deuce go anywhere. Would be like trading a child for shiny new car - Duece stays until Jordan on the table,
