Draymond Green: “Wow they didn’t shake their hands… that’s not good"

Can we talk about this play actually being a foul instead of a block yet.. or is it still too soon?

This Jalen shot is getting a lot of criticism. Here’s why I like it: 1. It’s our best guy in rhythm, with confidence. If we lose and he took the last shot on a clean look, it’s hard to second-guess. 2. Time and score. Down 1 with 5 seconds left your only chance for 2 scoring opportunities is a quick shot. He sees daylight and pulls. If he dribbles into a tough, contested jumper there is no second opportunity and it’s a lower percentage look. 3. The Double Team. He drew 2 and pulled before they got to him. It leaves the rebounding situation at a 4-3 Knicks advantage. But even more than that… 4. Wemby’s Positioning. Brunson has Wemby all the way outside the arc and makes him irrelevant for the rebound. The 4-3 rebounding advantage becomes even bigger when your only size is out guarding the smallest guy on the court. It’s all about percentages and opportunities. Brunson takes a clean look (albeit deep) 3, stepping into it - I like that shot. More importantly, he takes it with 4 seconds left, leaving enough time for a second shot if they can get a rebound or a tip. Boosting their percentage of success is the double team involving Wemby outside the arc, leaving the Spurs undermanned and undersized when OG comes flying through the lane uncontested. Go Knicks.

Charlie Ward doesn’t get the fanfare/lore he deserves from winning the Heisman/Natty and having a decade-plus long NBA career.

Interesting how it was a flagrant for Brunson but not for Wemby

This is great b/c it's actually a perfect example of how Knicks get away with extra physicality all the time. Alvarado stops, loads and shoulder checks Wemby. Wemby doesn't flop & matches the physicality. There are more parallels between NYK & OKC than anyone wants to admit.
