    The NBA is clearly trying to keep the NY market engaged. They know if we blow them out, they will lose a bunch of viewers.

    I love and hate him at the same time on some possessions. Terrible shot, but then nice follow. Unwilling to swing the ball to Keon, but then a nice find of Garza down low. It's like he doesn't really want to pass the ball unless he thinks he can get an assist.

    Not getting calls is great preparation for being on a Blazer roster....when they find out Dame doesn't even get calls it'll sink in.

    It's clear as day that they're trying to keep the game close.

    I think they're trying to decide if he's worth the other 2 way...... spoiler - he's not.

    Nothing sounds better than Jabari Walker enters game for Didi Louzada!

    You miss a shot at the rim, you get a foul call.

    I like how they gave the jump to 45 instead of grimes.

    I hate late whistles. If it's a foul, it's a foul. Whether or not the shot dropped shouldn't be relevant.

    You can just tell when a coaching tree emphasizes defense. The Knicks and Blazers both come from defensive coaching trees.
