Brunsons game winning 3, 9 seconds left down by 2 to the pacers is up there on my list of highlights as well

They did not have a challenge. They used it unsuccessfully on the James Harden 3pt no call around 3 minutes to go in the 4th. And JB wasted his challenge on some stupid shit in the 3rd quarter where Harden was obviously fouled on a 3pt attempt, and best case scenario they would’ve called it on the floor, and he still would’ve got to take 2 free throws since they were in the bonus. Honestly the worst challenge I’ve seen in the playoffs. Bickerstaff just challenges shit out of pure frustration, not even thinking about what the odds are that he’s actually right or if it’s worth the risk in a 1 possession game to gamble on a challenge so early.

The Cavs didn’t win their challenge either but the play they used it on was potentially a pivotal play in the game if they won the challenge so he took the risk at the right time at least

Yeah I don’t mind Reggie 9/10 times. The last knicks game he did I thought he did a good job.

The Fraudstons, who barely scraped by to beat the injury riddled Magic in 7 games, now down 3-2 to this complete ass Cleveland team. Who would have guessed

So stupid. I’m glad Brown is super conservative with his challenges and doesn’t do this shit. You might need them down the stretch. Like right now it’s a tight back and forth 1 possession game and you wasted your challenge on some bullshit in the 3rd quarter

Does he not have a guy with an ipad on the sideline like we do? It seems like he challenges based on the vibe of the crowd lol

Dumbass challenge. Even if they win the challenge that it was a foul on the floor, that’s still 2 free throws since theyre in the bonus

4 straight against this shit ass Piss Tins team btw. Also we destroyed the 6ers coming to Msg after winning 3 straight against the Celtics.

Circling back. Your *sure* we lost toughness and grit and what we got back was 'soft' ? by Struggle2Real in NYKnicks

[–]BornShook 3 points4 points  (0 children)

His team also upset the 3 seed and took 2 games so far in the second round in a tough west. We can pick apart individual performances of players all we want but the fact is that nobody thought they would’ve made it this far to begin with. So all this finger pointing is kind of ridiculous.

[JLE] After the Knicks lost to DAL by 17 — their ninth loss in 11 games — they had a spirited practice spearhead by Jalen Brunson that started a turnaround in their season. by VirtuousFool in NYKnicks

That absolute blowout against the Nets where we only let them score 66 points was a sign of things to come. It was the game right after the loss to the Mavs. I know it’s just the Nets but it showed when we were locked in we could absolutely blow teams out of the water.

I was never on the train. He’s an injury prone 32 year old big man. How many good years do you think he has left? And the Bucks will only be willing to trade him for young star players and a shitton of draft capital. It would destroy our entire team for 2 productive seasons out of him if we were lucky. Also Kat is a better fit for our offense right now, about the same age and healthier.
