You’re too focused on the regular season. Any team takes rebounding the ball serious to cut into this Knicks roster’s transition opportunities and the Knicks are going to struggle.

Also Randle is in mid season form so it’s not popular to say this, but they need to get somebody who could potentially turn him into the 3rd option offensively if he gets the playoff yips again. Look at that Philly game for a Randle getting the Yip’s scenario. If the Knicks FO plan is Grime and Mcbride hit eight 3pt shots AND we out rebound the other team by 11 for transition pts if Randle yips we gonna have a short playoffs.

Dont get me started if the Knicks run into Orlando or the Celtics and they sick Anthony Black or Jrue on Brunson.
Jrue doesn’t really slow Brunson down. And the spacing OG provides will nullify whatever the fukk Anthony Black did to Brunson. It wasn’t just that he was tall, it’s that Orlando packed the paint with their giant wings too.

I got to disagree, Brunson has not been his normal self when playing against the Celtics. He outright struggled the first game, was offensively inefficient the second game, and last game he was good but still went 0-5 from 3 pt shot.

A guy Brunson can play off of like Murray would force both teams to pick their poison on who Suggs or D. White is going to guard. Not to mention if that defender should focus on Randle instead.

Also, it doesn’t stop Thibs from putting DDV out there to space the floor.
