During portions of last season when neither was in head coach Tom Thibodeau’s rotation, McBride and Grimes would go one-on-one before and after games. Grimes would guard McBride pregame and then they’d flip roles during their postgame matches. The battles turned even more exhaustive over the summer when they would play full-court mano a mano and had to pressure each other the whole way down the floor.
Over the Knicks’ first 23 games, Randle switched on only 23 percent of screens, according to information tracked by Second Spectrum and supplied, via a league source, to The Athletic. During the five-game winning streak, he’s switching on 38 percent of screens.
