Knicks

Mikal had 25 points on 11-16 shooting and it still felt like he was frustrating to watch for much of the game. Hes a strange player. Sometimes you forget he’s even out there. But obviously very talented and his wingspan is an asset.

Watching most of the last 2 4th quarters and I have to ask you grizzled Knicks veterans…Is Towns good? Because his shot is horrendous and he looks awkward on the floor. The team doesn’t look good when it tries to go through him and I see why Minnesota traded him. DiVencenzo was perfect for this team.
No they play the game because they are contractually obligated to
Huge starter minutes, very little contribution from bench seems to portend Celts in 5, but we’ll see. Not a big fan of Thibs iron man approach in long pro season.
Another complicated player. When he’s good he’s great. He can really shoot it at times. Hes one of the best shooting bigs of all time believe it or not. He’s just not a force on defense, commits dumb fouls, and can get pushed around very easily. He also has a pretty low BBIQ, I’ve always felt that way about him and it hasn’t really improved
Could have at least played Precious Achiwa some minutes. Pistons didn’t have Isaiah Stewart for the whole series otherwise outcome could have been different.
I think Mikael is a little under appreciated in the same way I think KAT is overappreciated. KAT's shot is actually very good but he is a very soft big and not the guy you want taking the big shot. To be honest I think we miss Randle more than we miss Donte and I was not a big Randle fan when he was here.
He is a center version of Carmelo imho. Enough said
I miss Hartenstein

lol nah, I was actually eating when I believe Detroit had a 2 point lead late in the game, and they steal it for a break away dunk. I almost puked it all up, had to turn it off.
Don't know how they won because they looked like garbage.
Not expecting much against Boston, lucky they'll win 2.

I'm not a big Mikael fan because for some reason every time I see his name I think I have dyslexia

Watched the replay many times now…no push off at all…he put that man on skates. I know Brunson is clutch, who doesn’t, but that cross over before that shot 
Pretty much copied and pasted this for two years now.
Thibs’ rotation is forever a head scratcher and will be his undoing.
Agree. KAT just cannot stay out of foul trouble but better minutes from McBride tonight
