And where they are as far as injuries ladies and gentlemen I mean and you know it sounded positive to tell you the truth so you know I’m hoping you’re hoping we’re all hoping that we’re going to get some guys back soon ladies and gentlemen maybe OG comes back within
Days maybe Randle comes back within a week or so I want you to listen to Tom Tibido as he talks about his version of the injuries and where guys are and when they might return and all that good stuff ladies and gentlemen all right so let’s take a listen to Tom
Tibido as he breaks down where the Knicks players are in their recovery and let’s hope that we get some good news if you haven’t heard it some of you probably heard it but if you haven’t you get a chance right now he did most of practice yet how’s he
How’s he feeling good good you know we’ll see out where he is tomorrow you know he’s going to be listen I don’t OG Julius or Mitch mov doing anything more the last time OG’s doing well overall uh uh Mitch Mitch looked good he told me to tell everyone that
So he uh no and he’s he’s making good steady progress but he’s you know he’s he hasn’t had contact or anything like that but just it’s the normal progression that he’s making so um shooting and and that sort of stuff you can script a little bit with him uh and
Uh that’s where we are with that he can he can run he can jump yeah yeah it’s been cleared yep yep and and to be clear no no contact for Julius and uh Julius is still with the uh with pads and you know like light very light
Contact o OG’s like taking contact he’s scrimmaging and that sort of thing so he’s he’s pretty close I’m not a doctor so when they clear him they clear him but he’s he’s doing well very well you know he went to medical school yeah uh I I could have been a writer and a
Doctor so any scrimmaging yeah Yeah well yeah he’s he’s doing some five on five work he’s you know he he’s doing well overall do you have any kind of time table on OG or no just it’s it’s dayt day and you know we’ll see where he is he’s making good
Progress um but he’s got to be cleared first to to fully play so you heard him ladies and gentlemen I I apologize about that I was muted but you heard him OG could be close he’s taking contact he’s scrimmaging Jaylen brunson’s been working out practiced yesterday you know we’ll
See if he’s going to be able to play tonight you know right now on the injury report Jaylen Brunson is listed as questionable all right tonight’s a big one though ladies and gentlemen right we we need anybody and everyone that we can get tonight is critical the Knicks are half game behind
The Orlando Magic they struggled with the magic all season long when fully healthy now they playing against them all beat up right so this is a critical game for the Knicks you can see on the injury report right now W Carter Jr he is available for the magic he’s been injured Jaylen Suggs
He’s out for the Knicks of course o anobi Jaylen Brunson is questionable uh jul Randle is out Mitchell Robinson is out OG anobi is not questionable he’s out so OG’s out Brunson questionable Randall and Robinson are both out but ladies and gentlemen it seems as though we are getting closer and
Closer to these guys returning hopefully OG can return within days right according to Ian Begley and I’m going to get this graphic up on the screen in just a second there we go according to an Begley OG’s done quite a lot in practice right Tom tibo didn’t want to
Speculate if and and Obi would be back within two games the last hurdle is for OG to be cleared by the medical staff right this was a report by Ian Begley 31 minutes ago maybe a little bit longer than that 40 minutes ago all Brunson he’s been going through warm-ups before
Tonight’s game if things go well he’ll play so there is a chance that Brunson will play tonight and I’m going to tell you that Knicks need Brunson to play tonight if he can go all right in that same video that we just saw with Tom tipido Josh Hart said he you know seen
Uh Brunson practice and didn’t feel as though he was favoring his knee or playing tentatively or or or playing as though he was scared to play on his knee right so that’s a good thing but of course practice and the game are two different things right two different
Scenarios right once you get into the game it becomes aggressive right and and you know there there’s a much higher chance that you’re going to bang that knee right now it’s a contusion right they’ll wrap it up if he’s able to go they’ll wrap it up the
Knee should be protected you would hope that it’s going to be protected right so you know there may be a chance that jayen Brunson plays tonight going up against this Orlando Magic Squad uh a team that the Knicks have just struggled with all season long you need Jaylen Brunson you seen in the
Last game the Knicks really struggled to score the ball with any consistency right everything is perimeter based the Knicks took 52 threes I believe it was 52 threes last game because they have no inside presence now even with Jaylen Brunson the Knicks don’t have much of an inside
Presence but they have more then without jayen Brunson because they the Knicks don’t really have anybody that can break down the defense with consistency outside of Jaylen Brunson and Julius Randall on this team right now as currently constructed right so when you got both of those guys out nobody draws the
Defense everything is based on the perimeter right I mean you know if I was Tom Tibido I think I will try to post up bonovich a little bit you know see if he can do some work in the post some right I think he has at least a little bit of
A game in the post and to just to try to suck in the defense a little bit if it gets going now teams got to respect that right they got to respect that he’s gotten going they got to send a double team try to get the ball out of his
Hands now you can kick the ball swing it around the perimeter but if if if Jaylen Bruns is not playing you know you can you can you can try bogdanovic but if the Knicks can’t get anything going on the inside it makes it even tougher for
Them to score on the outside you know because everything is perimeter oriented so now teams are like well they got nothing on the inside we’re going to stick to our man on the outside makes it difficult for the Knicks for the Knicks to score and we’ve seen that in the previous
Game right if they’re not making Miracle shots all night long they’ll struggle so having Jaylen Brunson here tonight is critical in a critical game for the Knicks again the Knicks are one half game behind the Orlando Magic one half game they are a full game above the Miami Heat so the Knicks are
Currently in the fifth spot in the Eastern Conference the magic sit in the fifth spot in the Eastern Conference the magic hold the tiebreaker over the Knicks even if the Knicks win tonight you know they’re not going to they’re not going to win a tiebreaker but at least they can establish themselves reestablish
Themselves as the fourth seed and hopefully keep themselves there but again ladies and gentlemen just a quick update for those who are just joining us for those who are just joining us according to Ian Begley Tom tibo says ogan and Obi did a quite a lot in practice on
Yesterday Thursday he didn’t want to speculate if if anobi would be back within two games but the last hurdle is for OG to be cleared by medical staff and as far as Jaylen Brunson he’s grow going through warm-ups and if it goes well he will play tonight on the injury report of course
Anon Obi is out Brunson is questionable Julius Randle is out Mitchell Robinson is out you also heard Tom Tibido state that Mitchell Robinson is doing well right he’s been cleared for contact you know so the Knicks just might be getting closer to having a full
Roster and man will it feel good for the Knicks to have a full roster ladies and gentlemen I want to remind you we still got tickets left for the Nicks verse 76ers on Sunday there’s only a couple left right and to move them we dro the price ladies and gentlemen all right the

Hope to see you there again the link is in the description of the video also in your YouTube chat make sure you join us let’s take take a look at the lineups and matchups for the night we get that on over here there we go for the Knicks of course we know
Jaylen Brunson is questionable if Jaylen Brunson does not play it’ll be Deuce starting in L with Jaylen Brunson if he doesn’t play obviously if Jaylen Brunson plays J jayen Brunson will be starting and do to be back to the bench you got Dante Dev jenzo Josh Hart precious AA and Isaiah hartenstein
For the Orlando Magic Jaylen Suggs is normally their starting point guard he’s out tonight I’m assuming Marquel folz will step up in his spot and start at point guard for the Orlando Magic then you got Anthony black fron Vagner Bon Caro and then you got wend Carter
Jr as your starting lineups for the New York Knicks you know obviously the guy that you got to really be afraid of here is uh Bono first time Allstar this year he’s a monster ladies and gentlemen we know that this guy is on his way to superstardom the Knicks have got to
Figure out how they handle Bon Caro you know what I mean uh you know without Julius Randle you have nobody to offset the production so how do you deal how do you how do you how do you defend Bon Caroll I mean precious can defend him you precious is a good Defender
He’s not going to stop Bon Caroll the problem is we don’t have anything to offset Bon Caroll right now France Vagner he can be an issue right he’s a tall small forward Josh harda have to defend him uh vogner can shoot the three he can do a little
Bit of going to the basket got a nice mid-range you know he can be trouble for a guy like Josh Hart Anthony black good Defender if Jaylen Brunson is playing expect Anthony black to spend some time on Jaylen Brunson Marquel folz you know about
Marel fols used to be you know he was a one time he was considered to be a franchise point guard uh you know he’s not now but he’s found a home in Orlando where he’s able to give you know good decent production you know he’s a strong guy coming off the
Bench you know tough guy coming off the bench to tell you the truth you know I mean he can have a night on you you know I mean he’s somebody that you know that that the [ __ ] got to watch out for obviously he’s in the start lineup tonight because jayen sugs is
Out right but you got to watch out for Marquel folz wend Carter Jr ladies and gentlemen you know he can come he’ll come out and give you a double double right they have a a strong Squad Orlando does no doubt about it I still believe that the Knicks have a better team when
They’re fully healthy that Orlando is still not a team that I want the Knicks to match up with and the playoffs the way it’s looking right now I mean with just 19 games to the left to the season after tonight for the Knicks you know there’s a strong chance that they face
The Orlando Magic in the first round as either the fourth seed or the fifth seed it’s going to be a tough match up for the Knicks no doubt about it you know be a real tough matchup for the Knicks I know you know there’s been some
People that say ah now I’m not worried about Orlando and all of that kind of stuff uh I am I’m definitely worried about Orlando and US facing Orlando in the first round you know I’m just you know for me it’s not that good of a matchup for the New York
Knicks we can beat them if we’re fully healthy if we’re not healthy it’s going to be a tough one you know what I mean and and you know you already know how fans are going to be if we have a first round out oh man it’s not going to be
Good fans are going to go crazy they’re going to want changes all over the everybody already wants Tom Tibido gone not everybody but a lot of people want Tom Tibido gone you know what I’m saying so yeah I don’t know know but these are your lineups ladies and Gentlemen let’s
Take a look at the bench lineups all right and of course on the Nicks bench well if if if jayen Brunson plays Miles McBride comes off the bench if Jaylen Brunson does not played and Miles McBride will be in a starting lineup you got Shake Milton Alec Burks
Bonovich Jericho Sims for the New York Knicks got Cole Anthony for the magic Caleb Houston Joe Engles Morris Vagner that’s the other vogner that’s France vogner’s brother then you got batti at the center spot if wend Carter Jr was not going to go tonight batti would have been starting at that Center
Spot the question tonight is is will shake Milton play right will shake Milton get a chance uh to debut as a New York Nick there’s some people in the chat and I don’t know why the chat’s not working right now but there’s some people in the chat that don’t
Believe Shake Milton is gonna get any time with the New York Knicks right they believe Tom tibo was going to overlook him he’s not going to know how to use him so on and so forth you know I mean and it’s uh it could be
I don’t know I guess we’ll find out uh Caleb posha said no Brunson asked the question no Brunson Brunson is still questionable so we’ll find out you know according like I said according to Ian Begley he’s been working out before the game you know going through warm-ups and
Depending on how it feels he may play or he may not play right so he’s a game time decision right now all right but these are the bench units that you’re looking at but will shake Milton play I would like to see Shake Milton play he’s a guy that might be able to
Get to the basket especially if Brunson isn’t playing you need you need someone that can possibly get to the basket he might be able to break down the defense if he gets some extended minutes right again I I I try to use bonovich in the post some some so we can
Get some inside presence if we can you know what I mean uh but I I do want to see Shake Milton play the Knicks can use him he’s a Defender he’s got long arms you know I mean he’s proven in the NBA that he can
Score right he’s proven that he can be a factor on a team he’s had some big nights in the NBA he he’s had some big nights so I would really like to see Shake Milton get some Burn Tonight you know say so Tom tip it up stop playing around let sh let Shake
Milton get a little bit of Burn you know what I mean and see if uh you know see what he can produce for the Knicks because you know you just have too many injuries going on you need to get some penetration to the basket all that good stuff you know what I’m saying all that good stuff we need
It nostalgic nostalgic Nick he said big sh big fan of the show thank you I appreciate that my brother thank you very much I mean let’s go backwards a little bit go back to the start lineup because I want to talk a little bit more about matchups right because you know I I
Think the big matchup here is precious and Bon Caro and how the Knicks guard Bon Caro you know the Knicks normally guard teams straight up right and then maybe a little bit later on they decide that they’re going to throw some double teams you know I
Mean you know looking at this team right now uh listen if they got France Vagner and bonera on the same side of the floor you could be in a little bit of a trouble in a little bit of trouble right Vagner can shoot the three Bon Carol obviously can post he
Can shoot the three as well Vagner can do a little bit of posting you know you got those two guys on the same side of the floor uh and you isolate those two guys to play a two-man game game you know that’s trouble for the Knicks now you do have two good
Defenders in Josh har and precious AA valkner and uh bonero but you know Vagner has a a good height distance uh Heights advantage over Josh Hart and then Bon Caro is just Bon Caro you know I mean he’s got just an advantage over precious AA straight
Up right you know if Brunson is playing expect him to be guarded by Anthony black div chenzo is going to have to be on his game tonight he didn’t shoot well in the last game especially and the Knicks needed him to shoot well he did
Not shoot well I think he shot like 28% from the field or something like that took 17 threes and I’m not mad at him for taking 17 threes it’s what he had to do right he had to take those a high number of Threes it was the best way for
The Knicks to score both he and bogdanovic and as long as the Knicks don’t have Julius Randle they’re going to take a high number of Threes even with having Brunson because Randle is a big body that can draw the defense talked about that already but the Knicks are going to need
Dante D venzo to step up and shoot well Brunson if he plays helps the Knicks to shoot well because he does draw the defense penetrates inside obviously he has a mid-range shot and you know he’s going to give you 30 by himself so he’s going to draw all all of the attention
Now everybody else can get off a little bit when you look at these starting lineups the big matchup issues is Vagner and Bon Caro to me you know what I’m saying uh wend Carter Jr he can have an impact as well he can get you a double double I think you know Isaiah
Hartenstein his minutes is slowly going up I still wouldn’t expect him to get over 25 or 26 right because they’re really trying to protect that Achilles to make sure the Knicks have them for the playoffs you know but that’s a good matchup right there I think they kind of offset each
Other in their output right Marquel folz is a guy we got to watch out for because he can have a big night on you the bench ladies and gentlemen is where the Knicks have got to try the Knicks need the bench to step up and do something if Jaylen Brunson plays Deuce
Is on the bench hopefully dece can give you um some some you know he’s giving you production as a hopefully he can he can uh continue to give you some production Off the Bench he’s getting comfortable he’s getting real comfortable you know he’s shooting the ball well he’s playing
Great defense as we know we knew that he would we knew he would right so you know the Knicks are going to need Deuce to play Big minutes they’re going to need Deuce to be productive to knock down the three shooting at a high clip from the field the threes like
40% they need him to do those things but if he if any when he can get to the basket we also need Deuce to get to the basket right you seen him last game break down you you’ve seen him this season break down the defense last time
Last game he broke down the defense and got a dunp the Knicks need Deuce to be productive Alec Burks he’s got to figure something out at some point the Knicks need Alec Burks to Do what they brought him here for you know and there’s you know a lot of people that’s like he’s done uh he may be I don’t know I’m hoping that he’s not I’m hoping that he finally fits in or or or you know his game starts to flow he’s one of
The players on the team that was supposed to be able to break down the defense that was supposed to be able to create his own shot score and all that good stuff right he hasn’t been able to do it so far since he’s been with the Knicks during his
Stint this is the perfect night for it to happen this is the perfect night for Alec Burks to uh play well have a good one be productive out there on the floor knock down some shots this is the tonight to do it cuz this is a big game for the
Knicks the Knicks need bogdanovic to score tonight right he’s probably the best scorer Off the Bench he can give you 20 anytime he steps out there on the floor the Knicks need him to give you 20 to 25 points and hopefully Shake Milton will be able to um you know have an
Impact the magic they got some shooting on the bench Cole Anthony you know he’s a scorer Engles can shoot the ball v can shoot the ball all right so they they they have a they have a bench that can be challenging now when you look at the Knicks of course
You know Josh Hart should be on the bench precious should be on the bench the Knicks are fully healthy they have a stronger bench right now not sure but the Knicks need the bench to step up and do something in this game certain players Burks bonovich Deuce
Jericho Sims is going to do what Jericho Sims does I’m not expecting him to step up and be a savior for this team right but the Knicks need the bench to step up and play uh to help give us some production keys to the game ladies and
Gentlemen gotta find out we got to figure out how to score right with with with this team the Nicks struggle to score all of everything’s on brunson’s shoulders everything everything is on Brun and shoulder I mean every night with this team here he’s got to give you 30 to 35
Points a lot of responsibility he can handle it no doubt about that I’m not worried about that Brunson can handle it he’s tough that way but we got to figure out how to get scoring a little bit easier I mean how many times have we seen this team this particular team with these
Guys out there you know take it down to the shot clock to the end of the shot clock you know with you know three three three or two seconds left because they can’t find a shot now you know they’ve been getting a high number of assists that’s great
And they’ve been getting a high number of assists on bad shooting that’s great but the problem is the reason why they’re getting such a high number of assists is because we have nobody that can break down the defense right we can’t get into the crevices and the cracks of the defense
To make the defense crumble you know what I mean so the Knicks got to find a way to man manufacture some offense tonight and when you live by the three die by the three which is what this team has to do right now um if you’re off you struggle and
Even when you live by the three and die by the three you got to find a way to get inside I think this team the Knicks this this Nicks team needs to try to score and transition as much as they can get the ball out the net and go and it’s
Going to mean some bad shots it may mean a higher number of turnovers but I think that’s one of the ways that this team can score right easier buckets loosen up the defense some is by getting out and transition get the ball out attack Dante div and jenzo can attack Josh Hart can
Attack right if Brunson is playing Brunson can attack you know get out and go Duce can attack if he’s out in transition hopefully Shake Milton can attack some you know me say I like to see the Knicks play a little bit faster uh get up good shots but attack and
Transition rebound the basketball the they strug struggled to rebound the basketball last game they got killed on the boards if you’re not going to shoot well from the field you got to be able to rebound the ball if you’re going to shoot 30 something perc you better be grabbing
Offensive rebounds and then you should have a high number of Second Chance points then didn’t either you know what I mean and and obviously they’re playing small you know they’re they’re um playing handicapped right now but guys got to get out there we need Josh Hart to be hitting the boards
We need precious to hit the boards hartenstein Sims all these guys got to hit the boards all these guys got to hit the boards right we need those boards you know you’re going to have to scrap on defense you know I wish Tom tibo would mix the defense up
Some right make the game Scrappy make the game um uh dirty a little bit right that’s how this team has to win I feel by making the game Scrappy right making everybody really have to make make make the opposing team really really really have to work for every shot on every possession
A lot of make there be a lot of loose balls you know I mean uh that’s how this team has to keep themselves competitive right now they just don’t have the Firepower that’s what they did against Atlanta you know the Knicks got down early they scrapped their way back
Because they made the game dirty and clumsy right they made the game Scrappy the Knicks got to do that again tonight in my opinion and Orlando’s good at doing the same thing Orlando is a decent defensive team so I can see this being a really Scrappy intense uh basketball
Game especially with there being playoff seating on the line so let’s hope that nobody else gets hurt but I can see this game being a very Scrappy and intense basketball game because the Knicks are going to have to play that style of basketball uh Orlando plays aggressive defense yeah it’s going
To be one of those type of basketball games ladies and gentlemen it’ll be one of those games so I don’t I don’t know what to expect what to expect tonight you know I mean I’m you know no updates yet on whether or not Brunson is going
To play the most that I can tell people who are just joining us is that he is going through warm-ups right and if he feels good he’ll play so according to Ian Begley this was about an hour ago Jaylen Brunson is going through warm-ups and if it goes well he’ll play
Tonight right now he’s questionable he’s questionable but I I’m G to say this I seen someone say in the chat that uh the game tonight is more important than health I I I disagree forgot I forgot who who said it I disagree I think I still think health is more
Important if Brunson cannot go don’t go right I I’d much rather have Brunson just healthy for the playoffs you know there’s still there is still time for the Knicks To take take over that fourth seed you know and I know this is the last time we play Orlando uh the Knicks get healthy hope you know they could they could go on a streak whatever it is but there’s no way that I would put brunson’s health or put this game over
Brunson’s health no way I would do that excuse me I just hit the microphone my bad no way I would do that you know what I mean you got to make sure Brunson is healthy for the playoffs that’s the important part he’s got to be healthy
For the playoffs you know what I mean so no this game is not more important than health it’s an important basketball game because of the standings right but it’s not more important than making sure our players are healthy because because you know you put him out there and he’s not
Healthy you know what I’m saying you’re asking you’re asking for more injuries or you’re asking him to have to get season ending surgery or something like that I mean we need the guy to be healthy you know so if he can’t go he just don’t
Go right and the Nicks got to try to figure out something else got to figure out something else but it is an important basketball game there’s no way that the Knicks there’s no way that the New York Knicks are going to uh win the tiebreaker they can win the basketball
Game go up a half game over the Orlando Magic which is uh which would be great because now they get that fourth seed back now you got to maintain the fourth seed if they’re able to get it back right so it’s definitely a big game and then a game you know the Orlando
They’ve owned us this year right they’ve owned us so it’d be nice to get a win against this team and according to Ian Begley just 10 minutes ago Jaylen Brunson is playing tonight all right Brunson is playing tonight ladies and gentlemen so you can insert jayen Brunson into the starting
Lineup and let’s hope that all goes well that’s all we can say let’s hope that all goes well now I I would expect that uh the doctors cleared them you know in order for him to be going through warm-ups I’m pretty sure the doctors you know they already
Cleared it and said he he’s good you know well Tom Tibido limit his minutes I don’t know I don’t think so I think if Tom Tibido feels like if you’re out there you’re good to go brother you got to play so I don’t know if he’s going to
Limit his minutes but if it’s a blowout either way yeah you got you know Tom Tio has to make sure he takes him out of the game don’t mess around with it don’t mess around with it with it I mean take him out the game if you have
To yeah Kevin I I get it limit what there is no limit there is no limit you know what I’m saying according you know with the way that it is with tibs if you’re on the bench and you can play you’re going to play however many minutes Tibido feels like he needs from
You and I’m pretty sure uh jayen Brunson understands that you know because tibs is not going to yeah tibs ain’t limiting nothing Brunson is gonna play Brunson is definitely going to play tonight um you know he’s got a knee contusion you know um yeah you know there you go Brunson will play tonight
Uh he’s got a knee contusion you know that he banged up in the beginning of couple games ago whatever it was um when the Knicks played the Cavs sat out last game against the Atlanta Hawks he’s back tonight you know listen I won’t lie the Nicks need Brunton out there on the
Floor we all know that the Knicks need him out there uh in order to be successful against this Orlando Magic team I just hope that is not at the expense of anything else but to beat this team you need you you need Jaylen Brunson you’re not winning this game without Jaylen Brunson bottom
Line that’s you know that’s the only way that I see it you’re not winning this game without Jaylen Brunson um do I think the Knicks can win tonight oh boy Uh Kevin Bergen just just one other thing he said he might talking about tibs limit Brunson because of you know he
Limited Isaiah hartenstein um I think though Kevin the limit to Isaiah hartenstein comes from the doctors right if the doctors gave no limit to jayen Brunson then Tom Tibido is not gonna he’s not going to impose his own limit you know what I’m saying Kevin said I shouldn’t be
Laughing because 48 minutes for Brunson tonight is possible with tips it is 100% possible it’s 100% possible tip is going to play the there’s no doubt about it Margaret said Milton needs to play no doubt you know I mean he’s a guy that can you know it’s
Another guard that can help give Brunson some some rest on that knee you know you can there’s ways that you can sneak one or two minutes here and there there’s ways that you can do it ways that you can do it but yeah again according to Ian Begley Jaylen Brunson well played tonight
Now can the Knicks beat Orlando ah man um I don’t know like this team right here tonight can they beat him I don’t know it’s tough the Nick say haven’t matched up well with Orlando uh with the way that with their style of play you know they’re a strong defensive team
They can shoot the ball from the outside they have a nice inside outside attack you know Bon Caro is an Allstar they are missing jayen Suggs he’s been their floor General this season you know you got Mar Marquel folz who will probably step into the game as the starting point guard then
You got Cole Anthony who likes to try to show out against the Knicks you know this going to be a tough one but if the Knicks can pull this win off man that this would be a beautiful win for the Knicks they’ll put him back into that fourth seed if they can pull
This win off tonight uh listen you know they’re still far not far are but you know even if they win tonight they’re going to be three and a half games behind the third seed and I’m I’m not even concerned about the third seed that much you know
I I just want the Knicks to try to maintain homecourt Advantage not fall into the playin you know you fall into the playin you know you’re talking about playing Boston or Milwaukee at one and two you want to avoid that at all cost and I
Know you know a lot of people you know like oh but the Nick’s fully healthy I’m not afraid of anyone but you still don’t want that competition in the first round you might not be afraid of them but chances are the Nicks aren’t beating those
Teams so you want to save them you want to play them as late as possible especially with you know guys just getting back from injury you know what I’m saying and and you know you’re going to be figuring some things out you got to play them early you’re still
Figuring things out that’s going to be trouble you know you want to get as many games under your belt before you have to play the Celtics or the Milwaukee Bucks so for me it’s important that the Knicks are you know one of the top four teams you’re
Still going to have to play one of those one of you still might have to play one of those teams in the second round anyway you know but at least you get a little bit more time so we got to stay out of that that playing situation but right now I mean
