RE: AROUND the NBA: NBA In-Season Tournament/Play-In Tournament to be on Amazon - BolsDamols - 05-08-2024
I think this Knicks team will give Boston a lot of problems. Will be rooting for Brunson against whoever makes it out of the West (besides the Mavs of course)
Its crazy that the Villanova boys Hart and Divincenzo have bounced around the league and then suddenly found their home in NY and together with Brunson have become the foundation of that team.

With Anunoby now hurt, they're bench is real thin. Robinson is out for the rest of the playoffs too. Their starters have been playing the whole game, every game. That'll catch up with them.They won't have enough to beat the C's I believe.

I agree. Great team, but not deep enough to compete with Boston.
BTW, I guess IGT is exclusively on Discord now, but man was he right about Hartenstein!

Hartenstein has really impressed me with his all around play.

Yeah, he's solid, and he can move a lot better than I thought.

Carlisle goes in on the officiating. Says there were 29 calls they felt went the wrong way in the first game, but they didn't submit them. Said they will submit after this game. Says the Knicks' physicality is being rewarded and there's is not.

The Knicks have got the benefit of the whistle in both series now. They have had two game changing calls go their way.
The foul on the inbounds against Maxey and then the phantom kick ball in the Pacers series.
Also I miss a coach who goes after the refs and protects his players. If only Kidd could learn from Carlisle.

If Shai goes to WCF, he will be the favorite next year, and we won't like it, but Luka will lose some of that luster
If Luka has to worry about young player, Edwards is probably the guy.
He is 2 and half years younger, 2 years less experienced, American and very marketable, and his team might reaches the finals this year, he is probably going to be the one they push as the new dace of the league.

And Wemby in two or three years if his development continues on the trajectory he’s on.
RE: AROUND the NBA: Jokic Wins 3rd MVP in 4 Years - Chicagojk - 05-09-2024
I freakin love Josh Hart. What a warrior. I read the Knicks can only offer Hartelstein 16-17 million this year. He is definitely getting that. What happens if a team offers him over 20 million though? He found a good spot in NYC. He is going to have some interesting decisions, but should be really rich either way.
I wonder what Bucks fans are thinking when they see Donte? They traded him for Serge Ibaka. Donte bounced around at SAC and GS before landing on the Knicks. He had some up and down moments but really up this year. He would fit great into that old Bucks team. Sometimes a players timeline doesn't match up to a teams timeline. It is easy to say now they should have waited for him, but man would his athleticism really help them right now.
Coach Carlisle has an interesting decision on McConnell. He appears to be the one player that really is getting after Jalen. But he sat like the final 8 minutes of the game. Nembhard is a much better shooter and a solid defender, but Jalen has his number. Might want to lean more into McConnell down the stretch.
Those offensive rebounds are killer. The Knicks are a bunch of hungry dogs going after the ball. The said last night that their best offense is getting offensive rebounds. I think I agree. They get so much on second chances. It must be so frustrating rooting for the other team as they just pummel you on the boards.

Also, Myles Turner has always been a conundrum for me. You catch him on the right night and you think he is one of the better defensive centers in the league with top notch defense and shooting. He was like that in the games we played them. Then there are other nights where you hardly notice him. Last night he plays 31 minutes and scores 6 points and grabs 7 rebounds. I think those type of games pop up way more than they should.

RC is just setting up the refs for game 3. Ejection and all. He knows what he's doing. I expect them to get more calls at home.

I'm glad to see Lee finally get a shot. He was Budenholzer's top assistant with the Bucks and was a finalist for the Detroit job, which I think he should have gotten. Monty Williams has been a train wreck in Detroit along with Troy Weaver.
