Hear Nick updates and trade rumors post game reviews just the place you tune in so tell a friends just to keep the ball moving like the page if you feeling the movement every game we coming to win give us a sub like a player that came off the bench this nbk nothing but
Nicks Nick family what’s popping it’s your boy ladies and gentlemen Nick’s got a chance to go five and0 in the new year they take on the Portland Trailblazers tonight I mean the Blazers ladies and gentlemen you know they’re not terrible they’ve got 10 wins on the
Season young athletic they got a guy in jeremi Grant that can you know play some he can play some basketball but I do expect the Knicks to win this basketball game straight up and down I expect the Knicks to win this game uh you know it shouldn’t be the
Knicks are as good as people say they are they should win this basketball game I was just doing a power rankings with a buddy of mine we did a live podcast uh one or two of you might have been on there and we were looking at the NBA
Power Rankings CBS power rankings ESPN Power Rankings and all three platforms have the Knicks in the top 10 this week’s Power Rankings CBS actually has the Knicks they actually got the Knicks third in the NBA right that’s how good some people see the Nicks have become with the addition of OG an
Anobi you know uh it makes me feel good that the Nicks are getting that kind of respect around the league and people can see you know with the way that the Knicks are playing you know I mean the spacing the defense the defense has taken a total
360 I I mean look before the trade me Tony Josh me and Josh were having arguments about or debates not arguments debates about you know the Knicks in their defense he’s saying well you know the teams in the league they scoring 120 130 points per game you got to get used to
That you know I think the Knicks are better with the offensive side and I’m like N I think the Knicks need to play some more defense well right now it’s looking like they got both they definitely improved defensively over the past four games and it’s looking like they improved offensively
With the spacing and all of that good stuff you know I mean so it’s been a good move so far excuse my dogs in the background I don’t know what they’re tripping about really they shouldn’t even be out here but they somehow find a way to sneak out here then they start
Making noises for no reason probably because it’s very very windy and stuff is hitting up against the door so it sounds like Somebody’s knocking and all that crazy stuff going on so please be careful if you’re if you are in an area where it’s very windy out raining
Pouring down rain you can probably you might be able to see on my shirt cuz I just came in from outside as I left my other Studio came to my home studio you Pro you know it was pouring down rain so you know I was a little bit more wet than this
So please be careful if you’re listening in your car if you’re you know finding your way home through the rain just be very careful because it’s windy and all that good stuff especially here in the DC area but anyway the Nicks take on the Portland Trailblazers tonight ladies and
Gentlemen when you look at the Nick’s upcoming schedule they’re going to have a chance they really do have a chance to stack together wins and that’s what I’m hoping that they do stack together win wins you know they play Portland tonight after they play Portland they play the Dallas
Mavericks right which obviously that’s going to be a good basketball game but it’s a it’s a team that I think the Knicks can beat right after they play the Mavericks they play Memphis Memphis is without johnar johnar is done for the during the season then they play Orlando that’s a team that you
Know they’re tough they haven’t seen the Knicks the way that the Knicks are now currently constructed but they’re tough after Orlando they play Houston then they play Washington again and then they play Toronto on January 20th then they play Brooklyn on January 23rd the Knicks will have a
Chance to string together some WI ladies and gentlemen we’ll see if they can do it you know cuz if they can string together some wins now all of a sudden they start to move up in the Eastern Conference right uh you know and and I mean they’re
Already looked at as you know a top 10 team in the league by a lot of power rankings but they get even better they get even better so let’s see what the Knicks can do it’s got to start tonight vers the Portland Trailblazers ladies and gentlemen all right looking at the
Injury report for tonight the Knicks besides Mitchell Robinson are healthy all right that’s always a good thing we want the Nicks to be healthy for the Portland Trailblazers DeAndre Aon he’s doubtful for tonight Moses Brown is out bati styo is questionable Jabari Walker is questionable Robert Williams is
Out all right so the the the Trailblazers are playing with a very young inexperienced Squad besides Jeremy Grant and Anthony Simons let me say that besides those two they’re playing with a young inexperience Squad you know so I expect that the Knicks you know should should get a win I I I
Seen someone say I was I don’t know Facebook chat or something like that say that the Knicks are uh you know this could be a trap game the Knicks have been very very good in avoiding trap games not avoiding trap games but not falling into the Trap let me say that
You can’t avoid the Trap game you got to play who’s on your schedule the Knicks have been very good at avoiding the Trap and I expect they’re going to continue to do the same you know what I mean listen they’re a young team Portland is a young team they just beat
They just won the other day they scored 130 some odd points the other day their team that can score the basketball so the Knicks got to be careful because you know they’ve struggled against some of these teams that can score right they scored 134 points and beat Brooklyn they beat Brooklyn 134 to
127 so the Knicks got to be careful they can’t you know play around you know this hasn’t been a team that’s taken teams for granted the Knicks haven’t I don’t think they have right they haven’t really taken teams for granted they’ve been on point with
Saying hey you know what we got to come in serious we got to take every team seriously and approach it that way I think Jaylen Brunson has a whole lot to do with that his approach to the basketball game has a lot to do with that you know but you know they’ve
Struggled this season I feel with teams that can score a lot of points right now Portland for the season is only averaging 109 points per game right so we’ll see if you know that was just an anomaly or you know for whatever reason they’ve turned the corner and they’re scoring more
Points all right all right you know they’re not a team that um should put any fear in the Knicks but the Knicks can’t take them for GR all right so again injury report uh DeAndre Aon doubtful for the Portland Trailblazers Moses Brown out matis thel questionable Jabari Walker questionable
Robert Williams is out and for the New York Knicks only Mitchell Robinson is out Isaiah hartenstein has been playing his role tremendously in place of Mitchell Robinson and of course causing a lot of people to ask questions about the future of Mitchell Robinson you know what I’m saying um I
Don’t think we should ask questions I think we should be looking towards the future of the Knicks and saying how better can this defense get when Mitchell Robinson comes back look see there we go I see somebody Joe long said dump Mitch but can but Mitchell Robinson is a defensive
Guy right there’s more spacing in that lineup now with OG an and Obi right OG anobi defending Wing positions Mitchell Robinson defending the paint now Mitchell Robinson and oan noi adds a whole lot you know that adds a lot of length you know what I mean you know so I you
Know I I don’t I don’t I don’t want to dump Mitch I want to keep Isaiah hardenstein and keep Mitch you know what I mean then now you got Mitchell Robinson as your starting center still grabbing those offensive rebounds you know blocking shots you know helping to
Defend the pick and roll and all of those things and then you got Isaiah hartenstein who can come off the bench provide offensive rebounding he’s still blocking shots he gives you a little bit more offensively you know that’s that’s strong Marcus Miller 48 minutes of Rim protection
Exactly you know what I mean and that’s something that other teams in the league do not have other teams in the league do not have that type of power at the center position Elie said the dog agrees you know what those two dogs I don’t know they’re just
Crazy any little noise they’re on edge you know what I mean the problem is they make all this noise barking but as soon as we let somebody in the door they want to jump on them and they’re friendly friends with them you know the one dog if a broom
Drops he runs but you know they just got loud voices and the scar people they’re really not that tough they’re to big puppy dogs for Real Pit Bulls but they’re not tough at all they’re just friendly which is cool too but still they just make a lot of noise but anyway keep Mitchell
Robinson keep Isaiah hartenstein you know I mean and have you know a Duo at the center spot that a lot of teams in the league do not have you know and I think that makes the Knicks that much more better the challenge is going to be being able to pay Isaiah hartstein
You know what I’m saying because Isaiah hartstein is playing very good basketball right now and I think there’s going to be teams around the league who covet Isaiah hartstein since he is a free agent we’ll see the way that’s going to um you know play out you know what I mean Ricardo said
Sim that’s a good thing rather have them dogs barking than not barking with the way the world is nowadays I agree with you I agree with you 100% no doubt about it as a matter of fact I mean my dogs are good you know the other day I took
My daughter to the train station and when she closed the door she didn’t close it all the way so for three hours my front door was open and my dogs did not leave out the house instead they sat by the front door and just looked outside you know um so I’m
Definitely you know I feel good about these two guys even though well one is a girl one is boy but I feel good about the two they they make a lot of noise but you know they’re friendly and they’re smart and I guess they do protect the house
Cuz they just stood by the door W door is wide open they just stood by the door nobody was going to walk in with those two guys sitting there you know what I mean anyway let’s get back to talking about the New York Knicks let’s get back to it uh let’s look at
The lineups for tonight all right uh you know the Knicks when you look at the lineups you’re going to see this team is Young especially with the lineups that are going to be on the floor tonight or we expect to be on the floor tonight right I mean if if the Knicks
Have trouble with this team for the Knicks you got Jaylen Brunson Dante Dean chenzo OG anobi juli Rand and Isaiah hardenstein for the Portland Trailblazers like I said young scoot Henderson Anthony Simons tman Kamar Jeremy Grant and dupe wath young inexperienced Squad they do have 10
Wins not a whole lot of wins but they’re not like Detroit or Washington or a team like that they do have 10 wins on the season you know and a couple of tough guys that deal with Anthony Simons he’s tough to deal with uh Jeremy Grant he’s tough to deal with scoo tough
Guy to deal with scoot looks like somebody scoot looks older than he should he should you look at him you know what I mean he looks like somebody from the 70s out there hooping young kid strong body you know he’s he’s a tough one to deal with as
Well but when you look at these matchups I mean come on the Knicks should um the Knicks should be able to dominate at most almost all of the uh well I don’t want to say dominate at all of the positions you know Julius Randle jamy Grant uh Julius Randle is playing at an
All NBA uh level right now I would expect him to continue playing at an all NBA level jamy Grant’s a good Defender you know but uh I just think Julius Randle is in another zone right now we’ll see if he can maintain that zone that he’s in tonight Isaiah hartenstein I don’t know
Much about dup Reef the Blazers like him you know there’s been some you know writeups about the kid I don’t know much about him though besides the fact that the Lakers like him Taman Kamar I don’t know much about him right obviously the Blazers you know have some have some injuries to their
Death Anthony Simons we know what Anthony Simons can do you know I mean he’s a guy that can shoot the three can go to the basket uh you know he’s he’s a very strong guard and then you got scoop Henderson you know who is the future of the Portland
Trailblazers you know right now he’s still finding his way in this league he’s average 12.3 points per game five assists per game still finding his way but he’s expected to be the future of the Portland Trailblazers and I expect that he will be the future of the Portland
Trailblazers they shooting 37% from the field he’s shooting 30.8% from the three-point line so far this season this should be a game that the Knicks again I’ll say it over and over the Knicks should be able to you know shouldn’t be too much trouble for the Knicks hopefully now
Anthony Simon is going to give you some trouble 25.5 points per game can’t let a guy like him take over the game and I don’t think they will right because you got a guy like OG that you could put on Anthony Simons if you want
To cuz OG can Guard from the one to the four sometimes small fives but Anthony Simons though is shooting 44% from the field he’s shooting 38.9% from the three-point line he’s definitely a threat one of the guys that the Knicks really got to pay attention to right and not let them get too
Hot all right Jeremy Grant this season now you know speculation of a lot of trade rumors uh rightfully so because you know when you look at his contract he signed a four-year contract the port dril Blazers they are where they are uh they’re not going anywhere with Jeremy
Grant as you know listen he’s giving you 22 points per game but you know somebody’s got to score the basketball on that team and if it’s you know I don’t know you’re not building around Jeremy Grant I think eventually he’s going to be traded somewhere you know to maybe a contender
Where he can really uh play a role play A Part you know a big part in a team winning let me say that and I’m not taking anything away from jamy Grant he’s a good basketball player uh he’s not the guy that you build your team around when you’re young like the Portland
Trailblazers you know what I mean so you 29 years old timeline is all off it’s one of those guys caught in one of those situations he is shooting 46% from the field and 42% from three so uh Julius Randle has to be on his game to not let Jimmy Grant get
Off I mean he’s going to get his but not let him get off crazy get off you know what I mean but Julius randle’s been locked in even locked in defensively and he’s really been locked in and you know there’s been you know he he you know there’s been the athletic
They did a report on on Julius Randle and uh his you know what he did over the summer as far as watching video and how it really changed his thought process process and where he wants to get the basketball on the offensive side you know what I mean you know he he
He’s really dedicated to himself to getting the ball closer to the basket not being so far away from the basket not letting the ball stick it still sticks every once in a while but you know he’s doing better at not allowing the ball to stick you I think you are seeing you
Know from Julius Randle a difference in his play and and it’s definitely uh you know translating to the box score and to the Knicks winning basketball games right then you got tan Kamara uh you know he’s giving you 7.1 points per game 4.9 rebounds 23 years old 67 you
Know likely you know a defensive small forward it’s not going to be a guy that you’re really scared about it’s not going to be a big threat out there on the Flor floor unless the Knicks allow him to be a threat you know then you got dup wath 69
Center it’s giving you 8.9 points 3.7 rebounds per game you know 27 years old from South Sudan played for Louisiana state so you know he’s and he’s a rookie he’s an old rookie so there’s not a lot of experience or or um Firepower on this basketball team besides Anthony Simons
And Jeremy Grant now on the bench I seen someone ask about Malcolm Brockton yes Malcolm Brockton is playing uh you got shadon sharp Murray Jeremy Grant probably uh plays with the second unit in the power forward spot then you got another uh Center baji some names on here that you don’t even
Know that’s how fresh this team is it’s how young and and experienced this team is now about Malcolm Brockton let’s talk about Malcolm Brockton because I know people there’s some people there’s been rumors out there that the Nicks are interested in trading for Malcolm Brockton give me just one second be
Quiet get over here sit down sorry about that I had to my dogs I don’t know they’re just excited they start wrestling every time I get online you guys probably can’t hear it but every time that I’m on they start wrestling for whatever reason but anyway Malcolm Brogden you know there’s rumors out
There that the Knicks are interested in trading for Malcolm Brockton uh to play that pack up backup point guard role um I wouldn’t be upset with Malcolm Brockton you know depending on the price tag and Malcolm Brogden is making $22.5 million this season uh then he makes $22.5 million next
Season is that the price that we want to pay for Malcolm Brockton now if you trade Evan forier the Portland Trailblazers you know they they they they free up a year as long as they don’t pick up Evan for’s contract but then the Knicks have to play Malcolm Brogden of course this
Year 22.5 and next year 22.5 uh before you go with Malcolm brogon I think you got to beat the horses on on on uh uh my man over here in Atlanta you know I mean you got to check that out first you got to check out what other younger options are out
There you know I mean because Deonte Murray you know he fits the Age timeline he’s 27 years old obviously he’s a you know defensive guy but plus he can score the basketball Malcolm Brockton gives you those things but you know his injuries history you know would scare most people you know
Once he finishes up this contract I don’t see Malcolm brogon getting another contract uh not at 22.5 million I don’t think because of his injury history but look he’s 6’4 229 lbs right he knows how to run a basketball team he’s one of those guys that one of those guys that that that
You can trust out there on the floor you know he’s got a good character been in the league seven years you know so is he he’s a vet he’s 31 years old he’s giv you 15.4 points per game 5.4 assists shoots the ball 41% from three he shoots 43.8% from the from the
Field and so far this season he’s played 28 games and maybe in a more limited role he’s playing 27 two minutes per game uh for the portlet Trailblazers for the Knicks he’s probably getting less minutes I don’t see him coming in and being a starter I think Dante divin
Chenzo would continue to be the starter Malcolm Brockton who’s coming off the bench now would continue to come off the bench for the Knicks you know what I’m saying and you know so that wouldn’t be an issue there so he would definitely be a good addition to the Knicks
Bench you know what I mean a good add addiction uh addiction addition to the Knicks bench I don’t know how do you guys feel about Malcolm Brockton would you want Malcolm Brogden you know would you trade Evan forier you might be able to trade Evan forier straight up for Malcolm
Brogon I mean the Knicks did wave Taj Gibson which opens up their trade you know the the the flexibility when it comes to trades right you know now they can they can bring back two players they need to right now that wouldn’t you know as far as Malcolm Brogden and EV
Forier the Knicks would have to add a player or money you know you know trade exception or whatever it is to be able to bring back Malcolm Brockton to make the money work and all that kind of stuff you know what I’m saying so it wouldn’t be about the you know the
Roster space is there that’s not the problem my man silk what’s popping with you brother tell me how do you feel about the Knicks if they were to make a move for Malcolm brogon how would you feel about that but I long time man been
Been a while I’m trying to get over this code like you would get your your code so I hope I didn’t give you to the I hope I didn’t give it to you through the microphone no man you it was good we we long dist ain’t that far we can’t catch
It that far away but this is what I think the Knicks are doing all right I think the only reason they are are not going after Murray and going after Brogden is it’s going to cause some grind if they go after Murray and I think they they want
To look at it looking at the offseason for a big chip and they they want to use grinds for that chip that’s our last big Young Piece because they do think they big Young Piece so they if they could get Murray without giving up grinds then
Murray would be here but they they don’t think they could do that so so and they don’t want to give up Murray after this get them after have to see them to at a trade piece but they can they can use brogon or Grimes to get the big dogs
Become free on off season if he doesn’t then they just we bring for another year but I think it’s that’s why they looking at Brock he he he’s a big guard he ain’t gonna play a bunch of games that’s those are substitute games ju could play CU he ain’t gonna play all
Every game for the rest of the season they gonna give him time off ad can hit four minutes in the first half bar say four five minutes in the second half and five minutes in the four and and that’s how they gonna reduce this minutes so he
Don’t get hurt but I think that’s what they’re gonna do because look at look at Philly at the end of the year they only got four guys on the contract everybody else is gone okay so so so let me ask if the Knicks were to add Brogden I mean
He’s he’ give you 15 points a game play some defense you know smart with the basketball um can shoot the ball from three so he definitely helps you to spread the floor where does that I mean I mean does that does that I mean do you think that still just keeps the Knicks
Where we are does it raise Nicks up a level or does it keep us where we are n it’s going to raise that up a level a little bit because brockton’s a shooter he could score right he could penetrate right he could play D so you putting the bench defense with brocken
Grimes OG and a heart with pressures that’s a good defensive unit and three guys that can score no I I I get that I get that I’m just wondering you know how much does he change how much does he take you to another level that’s all
He he he bring us back to the quick us with quickly okay he scor just as much with quick quickly wasn’t giv us to the championship either but he he he could got to the Eastern Conference Finals if if if we all playing our game that’s why I see project we still
We still missing that one sniper killer ball handler to take us over the top Murray would be that guy but we would have to lose R so now we loseing defense on the bench right I mean at some I mean yeah unless unless look unless they look at Murray
Well I don’t know unless they look at Murray I know you said that they want to save save save Grimes for that for that guy right maybe they view Murray as that guy and Brockton is it’s the for money that they lose when they trade for you
Right so now he got they got they got his money for two years so the the money piece they gonna use Bron that money PE that money filler right I mean but if they view Murray as that guy why wouldn’t they just make the move for Murray I’m supposed he ain’t that guy
But now you got you gota replace grind on the bench who you got on a you got Deuce but dece ain’t in a wing who that other Wing defensively that could still score a little bit on our bench no I get that I get that I get
That but I think you can I mean all right here’s my thing if you add Murray right if you add Murray now Dante Devan chenzo goes back to the bench right sure now you are able to mix up you know you dejon Murray running with the second unit sometimes J or jayen Brunson
Running with the second unit so you still get that ball handler that’s with the second unit you know I mean but you got more Firepower to spread around but I’m letting you know right now you got a little weaker with bigger physical two guards because Murray could
Play defense but he gets pushed around with his two guards and Dante can play defense but he gets pushed around with the jayen Browns of the world so you’re losing that physical two guard defense along with the scoring so you might be able to score more on the
Other team but we may be getting posted up a little bit more I mean but if we add so if we add I I mean I take what you’re saying I get what you’re saying um see you you know the Nick don’t like to make too many big changes in the
Middle of the season that’s true that’s true make changes like that at the beginning of the season so they can work get The Replacements in case Dante getting beat up in the post or whoever get they got another guard that could come in for defense on right right
That’s true that would be a lot of change the middle seon for us yeah ah you know it’s it’s uh it’s tough you know what I mean because I think you can replace Grimes you might not replace them this season but I think you can replace
Them true and think they like to do that that kind of big change they like to do that in the Middle season this you just replacing the six man in the air with the runner-up six man of the year which he should have been the six man of the
Year last year quickly but I’m not going there but they basically play the same kind of caliber player who we lost to who we got he just don’t always stay healthy so you limit his minutes play another five minutes a game so he don’t have to play that many
Minutes yeah yeah you know let’s see what the do so tonight you know at least for Nicks fans tonight isn’t an is an audition right for for Mal be hitting threes on us like what like the roosen did right right right right he’ll come out and and and and and drop some
Numbers on us tonight oh I want that now come on he might because listen if I’m Malcolm Brogden if I’m Malcolm Brogden I might not be interested in playing for this team right now true nothing against Portland but they’re young they’re you know they they’re finding their way they’re obviously in a
Rebuilding mode after the whole Damen Lillard thing they’re stuck in in um what’s his name’s contract you know what I mean uh you know what What’s happen what’s act what’s going on oh Jeremy Grant the stuck in Jeremy Grant’s contract like what is really going on what what is
There for Malcolm Brogden in Portland nothing and and Sims you know what else he might be a for Factor he might want to come here and get even at Boston for Trader him Portland he might be want to see see Boston tear I mean listen I mean
You know the the thing I’ll say about Brockton is he is a steady a steady player that can shoot the ball understands how to run a team uh you know and so now you get that you get that type of experience coming off your bench which is always a good
Thing yeah well you g see though I just hope he do good not that good OJ got OG gota slow him down if he kill him yeah got somebody somebody somebody yeah I hear you yeah well you know we’ll see what goes on with that all right appreciate it Sil later

T-shirts and hoodies the Jaylen Brunson Captain clutch t-shirts and hoodies ladies and gentlemen exclusively at print jurisdiction. now we just talked about a lot of stuff let’s talk about some matchups tonight Who’s going to match up with who then we can get back talking about some
Other stuff so let’s take this back to the starting lineup ladies and gentlemen and and you know you know listen Isaiah hartstein is going to be on dup breath Julius Rand on Jeremy Grant now the only thing we really got to figure out was who’s going to be on
Anthony Simons you put OG on Anthony Simons I would I put OG on Anthony Simons Dante on scoot Henderson and Brunson on tumani kamaro you know I mean listen Tani is not a scorer right now I don’t know if he ever will be but he’s not a scorer Jaylen
Brunson onto Mani Kamar you know what I mean listen jayen brunson’s we we always talk about his defense defense isn’t just straight up horrible but you know size issues it’s not the the best ever either you know what I’m saying uh so the less he the less defense he has to play the
Better off and plus he’s one of your main scorers the ball is always in his hands you want to reserve Jaylen Brunson as much as possible so you put him on a guy like tman Kamar hopefully you’re able to reserve uh jayen Brunson you know throughout the game Dante dzo want scoop
OG and anobi on Anthony Simons Anthony Simons is giving you 25 points per game you put your best defender on them right put your best defender on them I think that’s how the matchups should and will go tonight easiest and best things to do of course Quinton grindes will see some
Time on Anthony Simons Quinton grms might see some time on scoot Quinton grms will probably see some time on he’ll probably see Shaden sharp in the second unit do on Malcolm Brockton all right so you know Josh Hart will probably see some time on Um uh he might see some time on a bunch of guys Anthony Simon scoot Quint uh uh uh Josh Hartwell all right so you know there’s a lot you know that’s the and I guess this is the thing that Tom Tibido really likes about the Knicks the current
Knicks they got guys that can switch you know like you can throw so many different players at versatile Wings in the league the Knicks have I mean Josh Hart can play some of those wings he can play some power forwards Quinton Grimes ogan and Obi now Dante D venzo is a decent
Defender this is what this is exactly what Tom Tibido likes about this current basketball team my man D Public Enemy said free Deuce let him cook uh listen Deuce has stepped in his little 10 minutes and played well no doubt about it he stepped in and played
Well how much time is he going to get who knows you know what I mean um yeah I feel like Tom Tibido is going to inch him along Tom Tibido is big on trust it’s all about trust for Tom Tibido does he trust the player if he
Trusts you it’s going to put you on the floor if he doesn’t trust you you’re not g to play a lot and it takes time for Tom Tibido to trust you takes time I don’t think fully trusts Duce right now I think he’s still building that
Trust as much as as long as Duce has been on the team and all of that stuff I think Tom Tibido is still building that trust with in dece and the more trust he’s he builds IND dece the more he’s going to play right I mean obviously Deuce’s
Offense is what limits his playing time his defense is always there there right but if he can continue to shoot the way he’s been shooting the ball the last two games he’s going to demand that he gets more minutes on the floor just from his play knocking down
Threes caught that dunk on the wizers the other night you know what I mean the more Deuce does that the better chance he has of playing extended minutes on the floor but got to do it every night you know what I’m saying if he doesn’t do it every night you know I
Mean and all it’s going to take is one night for dece not to play well Tom Tibido is going to you know Exile his minutes now if the Knicks end up getting Malcolm Brogden and this is where you got to feel bad for a guy like deuce you know he gets his contract
Extension 3 years 13 million whatever it is something like that he gets his contract extension and then if the Knicks trade for a guy like Malcolm Brogden or even if theya trade for Deon Murray Duce could possibly be in one of those trades or if if they trade for Malcolm Brockton
And is simply Evan forier I honestly I think if the Nicks trade for Malcolm brogon Deuce could be in that trade so now he can come in and play backup point guard to scoop Henderson cuz right now Malcolm brogon is playing that backup point guard spot dece could be in that trade Evan
Forier and dece from malcol Brockton now I don’t know uh what kind of restrictions are on Deuce’s contract you know does the other team have to pay is there some kind of penalty or something like that okay staus said do can’t be traded until June 30th well
There you go so then Deuce wouldn’t be in that trade he wouldn’t be in that trade there you go thanks Stafa thanks for ruining my Epiphany I appreciate that you know you have an epiphany and somebody comes and blows it up someone like Stafford I appreciate it but anyway ladies and gentlemen the
Knicks are playing in about 10 minutes uh keys to the game tonight don’t underestimate the Portland Trailblazers that’s number one right this team just scored 134 points against Brooklyn they’ve been they’re settled in they’ve been in New York for a little while they’re settled in right do not underestimate this
Team scoring 13 point4 points is nothing to sneeze at they can score they average 109 on the season but they can score the basketball so do not un estimate him all right transition defense don’t let him get get out and run don’t let them use their young
Legs that’s what they want to do they want to get out and run now the Knicks have shown that they can get out and run you know what I mean uh Julius Randle and in his uh article with the with with Fred Catz said scoring a transition has
Been one of the things he’s focused on this year and you see him and when Julius Randle gets out transition and he’s moving you know people don’t want to get in front of him right people don’t want to get in front of them but the Knicks can’t let Portland get out in
Transition all right the Knicks have got to uh continue to shoot and move the ball the way that they’ve been I mean they’ve been shooting a high clip from the three-point line shooting well from the field as a matter of fact ladies and gentlemen uh this has been the best that you’ve seen
The Knicks shoot from the field since they’ve been with Tom Tibido since Tom Tibido has been the coach so far this season the Nicks is shooting 46.7% from the field and 37.8% from the three-point line the best that you’ve seen the Knicks shoot under Tom Tibido the best
You know and uh you know they got to continue to shoot that way uh dominate The Glass Portland’s you know they average 41.6 rebounds per game the Knicks need to dominate The Glass the Knicks should just dominate this basketball team the scary thing is the Knicks know
That they should dominate the game we know that the niick should dominate the game and that’s what ends up making it a trap game right they should dominate this game you got two guys to worry about Anthony Sims and Jeremy Grant lock those dudes down don’t let
Those guys go crazy you know make it tough on them not g to say lock him down make it tough on them right make it tough on them don’t let one of these other guys that you haven’t heard of scoot Henderson I’m not taking away scoop Henderson got to
Defend him too don’t let one of these other guys that you haven’t heard of have a Madison Square Garden night right don’t let one of these guys you know have their their career game at Madison Square Garden don’t let them cement a contract at Madison Square Garden you dig what I’m
Saying don’t let him do it all right play the defense that you’ve been playing the Knicks are playing uh the last four games uh their defense has been topnotch the type of defense that we expect from the Knicks and hopefully they can continue to play this type of Defense
And a lot of it is due to OG no doubt about it I’m saying and I know I had my reservations and all of that uh but I am um I’m happy with everything that I’ve seen since the OG trade I’ve had a couple of questions you know I’ve had some
Questions about you know his him being used in the offense and all that kind of stuff hopefully they get answered in due time I like to see him have a game but since the OG trade the Knicks are 4 and0 fifth best defense in the
League in the last well let me do four games I did last five games in the last four games since the OG trade the Knicks have the best defense in the league defensive rating is 103.1 since the OG trade 103.1 that’s tremendous that’s crazy then you got Dallas at 105.8 New
Orleans at 107.2 Memphis at 108.9 point1 Cleveland at 109.2 but the Knicks over the last four games have had the number one defense in the league see if we can continue that tonight and also over the last four games the Knicks have had the 14th best offense in the
League the offensive rating has been 11 19.3 all right so you know basically if you if you’re scoring 119 three and you’re giving up 103 I mean you’re winning by double digits I expect the Knicks to win tonight you know I mean I expect it to
Be is it going to be easy I don’t know I expect the Nicks to win right now the Blazers might come out feeling good feeling hot after they dropped 134 points on Brooklyn the game did go into overtime you know what I mean the game went in the overtime so they might be
Feeling good they might be feeling hot Anthony Simons had 38 points and 11 assists got to cool that brother down coming into the garden cuz now they feeling like okay we did it in Barclays that was practice for MSG now let’s do it at MSG right you know that’s you know
