Why is it that when KD arrives the coach departs?

The second time Vogel is being scapegoated by an organization that traded away the team's depth and identity.

Brunson is on his game. When he is the Knicks are more than a handful. If Randell were healthy they would be a threat to win it all.


Yeah, the game where he's finally on fire, his two Villanova brothers (Hart and Divcenzo) can't buy a bucket.

If all 3 show up it's over.

Wow what a block by Hart. Monster block on Horford.

*edit* - Stuffed Embiid now at the rim.

Miss him .

Eh, he doesn't really care about high minutes. Importantly he'd have a ball-dominant scoring guard, a good coach, and really high motor guys to self-motivate and cover for days where he doesn't have it.

Also the easier conference and global megacity.

Brunson has to stop forcing...he's going to shoot them out of this game. Awful down the stretch. Holding the ball looking for the shot and dumps it off with a few seconds left for someone to get the % buster. Can't stand that.

Course soon as I say that he gets to the line and follows up with a floater.

Game.

The Knicks rebounding is something else, as was the case the entire season. What I would give for one of our players to have such a nose for the ball.

Having Hart is enormous. A SG that grabs double digit boards every game. He gets tough rebounds too, in traffic over the bigs..not the Westbrook type where guys are boxing out to giftwrap him boards.

When games get ugly, those are the guys you want.

Embiid's probable last play of the game was begging for the call. Guy is so soft it's unwatchable. 7 foot, 280 pound James Harden.

Lowry also just tries to draw fouls. One play, a Knick player was on the floor and he purposely fell over the player to draw a foul. On recent play he flopped setting a screen to get a foul call. Hate watching that type of basketball. I'm glad to see Sixers lose.

Brunson's the reason they won. When his game is off the Knicks chances of winning are greatly diminished.

True but you usually live and die by your stars, and they won in spite of his struggles in game 1 and 2, thanks to Josh Hart. I admire his confidence to keep shooting, but he needs to move the ball a little more. The 2nd round won't be so forgiving.

Let's see if Dallas can take care of business at home. Clippers can win games w/o Leonard so Dallas needs to still play well.

He has help. OG Anunoby and Donte DiVincenzo are capable. Jalen is their motor.

Kawhi's deficiency is availability.
