nice win vs Clippers last night.....hard to tell which versions of Randle and RJ will show up on a given night. If they were consistent, they would be more fun to watch and could go further in the post.

Played the best game of the season to date !! All were firing on all cylinders, especially RJ with his treys. I would like to see less posing from him after the shot and more heading towards the rim to grab a long rebound. He could have gained a couple of possessions tonight. He is coming into his own (I hope !!!)
Brunson really does have a sweet touch !!
Randle was lot better, still moody and there are chunks of the game where he isolates - annoying !!
Mitch/Harnstein made a great tandem in keeping Victor at bay. BTW, when this kid gains weight and gets more used to the NBA game, he is going to be unstoppable !!!
Grimes was pretty non-existent and they should start calling IQ the new microwave !!!

It was fun watching the bench come in the last minute or two. They were running around like the Globetrotters, until they turned it over

The Knicks need to sign Quickly to an extension before they lose him.

What a phenomenal player the Pearl was !! Jordanesque-type moves in his era. Often wonder, how many Pts players then would have racked up if they had the 3-pt shot ......luuuuuuucas.........YES !!!!! Thank you Marv.....

They were without RJ last night, but you could see how far behind they are from being a contending team.
I know it is easier to complain after a loss, but I cannot stand Randle's body language. If he does not get the call at one end, he hangs around to complain and the opps race down with a man advantage. This game is too fast to catch up. There were instances where he did not go after loose balls or close in on defense. He is not the only one, but he is supposed to be a leader on the team !!
Liked Grimes making those catch and shoot 3s. He should get more involved on offense.
Hart passes up too many open shots with his fakes.....IQ was not himself, but their defense is tough.
They were expected to lose to the Celtics, hope they can rebound with 3-4 wins in current road trip.

Beat him 2-1 he hit hr off me and I scored both runs 2 singles I turned into doubles stealing … one he picked me off first baseman threw wide I went third scored on wild pitch. … the second one I stole second went to third on ground out scored on squeeze … the hr he hit went into Atlantic Ocean by Brighton beach … I did manage to k him once and walked him once …. Pete falcone was first real big star I faced I popped to first and was overjoyed I made contact he was unbelievable…. I think I might’ve $hit my pants in batters box … he was intimidating presence… so was candy but I had more experience by then

Wizards tonight at 7. I like the Knicks and the Garden. I get this game on my Comcast Monumental network. Just like the Yanks, I live 3 hours 50 minutes away. I hope they win tonight. I can only see the Knicks and Yanks occasionally on tv.

I can only see the Knicks and Yanks occasionally on tv. Grimes is out and I think also RJ, but I still also like their chances....their next 3 games are away from the Garden...
