  1. He’s the underdog in this scenario, so focusing on his game should be the priority.

    Mitch is gonna handle Wemby on the perimeter a lot better than we expect.

    Wemby should be spending more time preparing for Mitch tbh

  3. Wemby is a problem, wouldn’t be surprised to see Mitch get postered tonight, but also give Wemby problems with his strength.

  4. I think defensively we will be fine against Wemby. He may have a strong game but it’s not gonna be Jokic like destruction of our defense.

    Offensively is where we are going to face a challenge with Mitch on the floor. The paint is gonna be CLOGGED and Wemby’s a solid rim protector. We *must* shoot the ball well from the mid-range to the perimeter tonight to compete. Transition buckets like last game will also be key.

    At least with iHart he can stretch the floor a bit and drag Wemby out of the lane with the threat of a 3 ball. With Mitch there is absolutely zero reason for Wemby to ever venture more than 1 step out of the lane.

    We need to make sure we do a good job staying in front of our guys so Mitch and the bigs guarding Wemby don’t have to help so often. KP roasted us b/c the Jays, Jrue, D. White were getting past their defender and then kicking it out to Kristaps for open 3s when Mitch came to help.

    Wemby is still really raw so I expect Mitch to handle the matchup well. Victor has trouble with stronger bigs right now.

    True test for Robinson. Will be a cool moment if he plays well and continues the strong season

    Imo this one of the biggest nights of Robinson’s career. It’s gonna be all eyes on the man he’s defending, internationally. Probably the #1 trend in all sports playing at MSG for the first time. It’s his opportunity to really be seen and appreciated in this league for just how good he is.

    Yeah, about that…

    Wemby is going to be more of a Randle/Hart matchup than a Robinson matchup
