Inside The NBA : Knicks Vs Nets Halftime Report

We are in Atlanta that game is in Brooklyn and Ben Stiller is watching because you know he’s a big Knicks fan Brunson is no question an Allstar best player on the floor 18 points for Brunson thus far Nicks fans chanting MVP in bark lays is disrespectful what am I

Funny am I a clown Jaylen brownson is a bucket as I mentioned 18 points three rebounds for Jaylen Brunson thus far he’s seven of 12 from the floor he’s I don’t know if he’s on your All-Star ballot we’ll get to that in postgame he’s on my Allstar ballot Jamal Crawford

Cace Parker Shaquille O’Neal let’s get to American Express teammates from the first half Jaylen Brunson Julius rold combined for 31 Brunson a little bit more efficient than Julius Randall thus far he absolutely is and it’s the way Jaylen does it he gets everybody involved doesn’t have a lot of assists tonight

But he has the post of the team he knows when to be more aggressive he knows when to take over we’re scoring wise and set guys up and he’s doing it again tonight sha 13 for Julius Randall though yeah he’s you know like a little bit too up

And down for me but you know playing well tonight for I would like to see him be like six maybe seven out of 10 but look he has the ability to do this right here go oneon-one you know right here a little too much driven but right there

Bully ball that’s his special shoot that little shot you know when that shot is falling from me he dangerous right here just takes it puts his head down little shoulder bump and one you know coach does a great job of giving them isolation plays and look if he makes a

Quick aggressive high percentage move like that I have no problem with that but I rather see him six out of 10 rather than four out of 10 if you go six seven out of 10 is crazy no seven out of 10 to get you a championship I but it’s

Spoken by a like one of the most dominant centers in the world just just shoot seven out of 10 well if layups like that shoot layups like that I mean he’s a little too up and down for me yeah um so just shoot seven out of 10

Yeah just 70% okay hall of fame um Jaylen Brunson missed two games with a CF since then he’s averaging 36 points per game he’s halfway there right now with 18 this is an interesting game because he really can dominate this team and he’s done so in the first half and

And once you become confident in the NBA and the system you’re in and how you get some points and how you do things right here running the pick and roll watch the patience he gets watch how he’s at peace with his gang step through no problem that’s a bigger player no problem for

Him in pick and roll misdirection always changing gear changing speed watch this step through up step through the other way right hand finish jayen keeps you off guard it keeps you off balance and then again misdirection let me back up come on pick and roll come on pick and

Roll here it comes here comes a pull up three he keeps you guessing he keeps you guessing and when he has the ball he’s in total control of that possession I was with you in Golden State when he was on Dallas did you ever think he was

Going to be this Jaylen Brunson I knew he’d be good I’m not sure he would get the opportunity to be this Jaylen Brunson sometimes in the NBA it’s not about Talent it’s about the opportunity you’re giving and you could tell he was frustrated not frustrated to the point

It would be disruptive but you could tell he wanted more than being the second option that he was in Dallas it’s funny he says that CU When I’m in Brooklyn I hear people all the time being like can we get Cam Thomas on the floor more and he’s been playing Off the

Bench lately eight points in the first half yeah cam Thomas uh doing a good job but cam Johnson to me has been the key for this team and I think cam Johnson is the guy that struggled moved on to the bench uh early you know in December January while Brooklyn struggled started

Off this month shooting zero for 18 from the field and has rided the ship since then um 406 tonight 202 from threes but I think it’s just becoming easier like he’s given the ball up he’s more decisive um he’s second in scoring so regardless of what his role is starting

Coming off the bench what whatever it is the Nets need him to score right here probes gives it up to get it back back and I think that that’s the the cam Johnson that the Nets need him to play and just being inconsistent what are we what you laugh have you emphasized the

Johnson really I mean I wasn’t I was you said cam Thomas yeah no she you deserve an assist for pivoting effort pivot you pointed at left go and said he messed up hey but it was so smooth though it was so smooth it was smooth Mr Perfect never messed up you

Messed up wow you messed up you see how excited he was no I was cuz I was like cam th say the best ales come off the worst passes that’s what I’m saying I went up there and like DeAndre Jordan did you said cam Thomas has been great

But Johnson and I was like wow that was really good she played off so good you’re a great teammate but you messed up man Shaq the one that’s like hey he messed up leco messed up the play teacher I think you forgot to get we not running turn five right now Shaq we’re

Not running my bad my bad my bad but the streak is make a mistake right here oh the streak is broken always bumping I’m not dj diesel but I got some I got some broken you should hear us in the viewing room the DJs never let music stop ever let him
