Let's go!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Jrue might be playing?

 

[MickZagger]

Holiday vs Brunson will be fun

 

[BassPlaya]

I imagine Jru controlling the point and feeding a slashing Deni.

Mmmmmmmm.....delicious.

 

[blazerfan11]

I imagine Jru controlling the point and feeding a slashing Deni.

Mmmmmmmm.....delicious.

Or hitting an open three-pointer from a feed by Deni.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Or....helping get the ball inbounds against pressure in a late game situation?

 

[BassPlaya]

Wife off doing grandkid things....I'm back home cooking for the week to pass the time.

Pork roast in the crock pot.....next up...chicken enchilada's! Green las Palmas sauce. Primo!

 

[THE HCP]

Jrue is in. Can’t believe it FAMS!

 

[BigGameDamian]

 

[BassPlaya]

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I would bring Jrue in later. Deni and Jrue are our only true playmakers; try to overlap their playing time as little as possible.

 

[THE HCP]

Hope they don’t play Jrue more than 15-20 minutes for awhile.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Hope they don’t play Jrue more than 15-20 minutes for awhile.

Yep, 6-8 minutes per half is enough to get Deni a breather. Then, depending on the score, bring him back for the final two minutes for ball handling and free-throw shooting.

 

[blazerfan11]

Or....helping get the ball inbounds against pressure in a late game situation?

Shooting 84% on free throws (highest for who's available except Yang at 94%).

 

[THE HCP]

Yep, 6-8 minutes per half is enough to get Deni a breather. Then, depending on the score, bring him back for the final two minutes for ball handling and free-throw shooting.

Maybe your best, most competent post on here FAMS!

 

[crandc]

Damn. Going to miss second half of 49 ets or first half of Blazers.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Maybe your best, most competent post on here FAMS!

Ouch, busting on a former NEP

 

[THE HCP]

Ouch, busting on a former NEP

I was agreeing with you son.

 

[MickZagger]

Jrue is in. Can’t believe it FAMS!

My favorite player

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I miss Josh Hart. Probably my favorite ex-Blazer. I hope he plays well in a loss today

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I was agreeing with you son.

Sometimes it's hard to tell.....

 

[illmatic99]

blacked out on league pass due to the NBA's antiquated rules. Anyone wanna PM me a link?

 

[Chris Craig]

6-7 from three for the Knicks? We need to play defense

 

[Everything Beagle]

The Knicks have a watertight gameplan: Don’t Miss Shots

 

[B-Roy]

Bro Caleb is so good

 

[KingSpeed]

Once Knicks stop making shots, we’re good.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

To weather this storm, endure the Knicks shooting like this, and stay close throughout the quarter... I'm very impressed

 

[THE HCP]

Game is on League Pass. Got two east coast friends watching.

I'm watching on buff streams. Knicks broadcast, but oh well
