I know but Randle albeit sloppy towards the end wasn’t the issue.

Brunson had 5 turnovers and missed 11 of 14 shots. Looked uncomfortable all game.

Thats the difference since they lost by single digits.

True, I’m not on the Randle hate shyt. He balled out. Brunson wasn’t hittin and is one of the reasons we lost. I’m saying that RJ was hittin too and he could’ve deferred in some plays.

A lot had to fall wrong for the loss to manifest. Grimes was out, the refs were HEAVY on the whistle, Mitch left late when he was the only player doing anything close to containing Siakim, the Knicks missed a bunch of free throws, and Fred Van Vleet hit a lot of contested junk.

That's a LOT to go against a team that still took a 1-point lead into the final three minutes of action. So I'm not gonna linger too much on it.

I do wish Thibs would have double-teamed Siakim and used McBride a bit more on FVV though.
