Last night, Mike Brown used a lineup featuring Deuce McBride alongside the other four starters (Brunson, OG, Bridges, KAT) for seven minutes.

Last season, Thibs played that five-man lineup a grand total of 49 minutes over 100 games (regular-season & playoffs combined).

Instilling a little confidence in a young player by playing him game 1 and not pulling him after 1 mistake or never again in the 2H…it goes a long way.

Last season, Jalen Brunson led the entire league in:
* Time of possession per game: 8.6 minutes
and
* Avg seconds per touch: 6.0 sec
and
*Avg dribble per touch: 6.1

Last night, those numbers were way down:
* Time of possession: 6.7 mins
* Avg seconds per touch: 4.7
* Avg dribble per touch: 4.2

After my attempt at skeeting “interesting” comments about the #Knicks game last night, I am now 2 followers away from 1,000…which I believe entitles me to some kind of sponsorship deals. So like & follow!

With the added Chauncey piece now this just goes back to my point where the government and the right wat to make the NBA look terrible. Cause why is the FBI involved and Chauncey being in poker games being reported as sports betting.

Send 3-4 guys at him every time and just let anyone else beat you? Idk…and just forget challenging him at the rim—which for him is anywhere w/in 15 ft.

Playing to strengths rather than forcing your scheme. Who’d have thought?

This guy is so frickin scary. Another yr or 2 and a few more pieces around him and I don’t know how you stop him.

Can’t be a single person who could watch that game and not be glad—or at least not be mad—Thibs is gone.

All the props in the world to him for changing the culture and bringing back legitimacy, but he was maxed out.

Wish Windsor was teaming with Hater…

Triangle vs Willow/Wrath
TayJay vs Toni/Mina

W/W vs Toni/Mina

Toni/Mina = Champs

BugsySig @bugsysig.bsky.social · 18h

And what was their O rating?

BugsySig @bugsysig.bsky.social · 18h

My biggest takeaway from this game: This looks like a totally different #Knicks team. Both offensively and defensively the schematic shifts are clear as day. Mixing and matching of lineups and philosophy of rotations too.

Headline you’ll never see ion ESPN: “Shorthanded Knicks beat equally shorthanded Cavs on opening night.”

Thought he played great. Passed up a few shots he needs to take, but otherwise really popped tonight.

BugsySig @bugsysig.bsky.social · 19h

Fuck me. Yes please.

BugsySig @bugsysig.bsky.social · 19h

Lot to like from this game.

Lot to work on still after this game.

Big question now: Can #Knicks win it all without a doofy white guy who can hit a bunch of 3s on their team?

BugsySig @bugsysig.bsky.social · 19h

Guard the 3. Hit your FTs. Take game 1 of 82. Let’s go #Knicks!
