with KC win
Jaguats 78%, Texans 13%, Colts 9%

Chiefs playoffs
70% win, 21% loss
Texans playoffs
89% win, 51% loss

Big thing my brain keeps circling back to with Brown and the Knicks is what he puts in on offense to open things up for *everyone* can always get JB and KAT going but tempo/movement to balance things out feels key.

Also, and I can’t say this enough, if you don’t want a tough call at the end to beat you, get 1 stop or make a few more shots down the stretch. The period where Harris was back on the floor buy Duren was still guarding Towns killed the Pistons both from KAT himself and not having rim help on Brunson

every person involved in this needs to be in prison
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Thibs is waving the white flag. Emptying the bench.

New York will lose on back-to-back night by 30-plus points combined to San Antonio and Charlotte.

Bench scored 7 points total in non-garbage time, all in fourth.

Knicks' brutal schedule ends here, though.

ESPN has basically traded an entire investigative journalism dept for Stephen A. Smith. ESPN’s IJs used to uncover stories that all sports radio & podcasters would yap about. Invaluable to the brand. The sportsworld spun on it. Now ESPN is just the worst YouTube sports show ever with better graphics

Before every game, Deuce McBride and OG Anunoby have a handshake that consists of them doing the robot.

Whose idea was that?

“Who do you think? It was OG.”

There’s something truly awful happening with culture where it’s so important to burnish your asshole bonafides every now and again. They need KAT to be weak so they can be strong. It’s so unbecoming of all these dudes.

The Knicks are a very good team. Some things to fix if they want to beat the teams ahead of them, but still very good.

Since Jan. 1, the New York Knicks have a 3-point line problem (both offense and defense) that can help explain some of the up-and-down play since then.

Dove into the numbers and some film on both sides of the 3-point line:
