Maybe a broken ATO as Kolek tells OG to cut baseline after the inbounds to Mikal, unclear where though as Giannis is already low man and in position to tag the roller with Hart filling the opposite corner.

OG stays, so Kolek lifts instead, which creates space for Mikal to find OG for the corner 3.

I'm gonna stop being mad online about this weekend's games soon, but this shot not being a corner 3PA is atrocious

Further convinced me Thibs isn't making optimizing the Knicks' shot diet this season a priority, something which has been a huge strength in previous seasons in NY.

KAT and Hukporti have played 17 minutes together this season: 135.29 ORtg, 80.56 DRtg

Would like to see a bit more of them, at least until Mitch gets back. Hukporti's screening ability can help open up space for KAT as well to get downhill, like he did on this play last night.

Josh Hart just has a special ability to crash the glass at a level nobody his size has a right to in the NBA

Another one where he's tagging way too aggressively and doesn't recover back to Beasley until it's too late.

Sure, some of this is scheme related, but I guarantee Thibs tailors this to specific personnel. There's zero chance he's cool with giving up wide open corner 3s to a career 38.7% 3P shooter.

Deuce had a bad defensive game. That happens, but you can't be bad AND lack attention to detail.

Ron Holland above the break is not a threat you leave Beasley ass naked in the corner for. He's overplayed things off ball too often this season without accounting for specific opponent and situation.

Wtf is going on with Haliburton here???

Really nice ATO from Thibs.

KAT comes up to set the screen, Brunson rejects it, forces low man help from MPJ, Russ can't help off OG, and Deuce cashes the open 3.
