Brunson no turnovers are great, especially in the 4th quarter to give us a winning edge .. not happy with Barrett receiving 10 or more minutes in the first qtr.

Randle & MitchRob defense and offensive-rebounds plus Quickley's 7 assist has Knicks leading at ....
Half-Time Knicks 65 - Magics 59

The Magics Bol 7.2 frame has been a tall problem for the Knicks in the first half scoring 11 points on 5-6 FGA and 2 blocks.

Why are we not hitting a open Fournier on the perimeter .. the Magic are gonna take the lead because we leaving Fournier out of the offense

Hart & Toppin in lineup with Brunson/Barrett/Fournier looked good building a 10 pt lead to end the 3rd qtr.

Banchero is NBA strong already. Good win for the Knicks! JB made the difference and Randle playing best version of himself. Contributions from all?. ORL killed their season last year?. Not this time. Would?ve been a brutal stomach punch to lose to the at home?

JB and Jr and the gang take care of biz on their floor. Nice!

The Young Orlando Magic team record are 0-4 .... The Knicks win over Magics was ok tonight.
I was hoping to see 5 or 6 minutes of Deuce McBride and Sims vs Magics
There were no reason for any Knicks player to receive 30 or more minutes of playing time vs the young Magics team.
UNLESS to fore fill their personal stats after shooting 1-9 in the first half .. And the extra minutes Brunson received had Brunson play at the level of the Magic committing 3 turnovers and 3 foolish fouls.

The 0-3 Philly 76ers got their first win tonight over the Pacers .. The Pacers SG/SF rookie Mathurin scored 17 pts tonight, spoiling his 20 pts a game status in his 4th NBA game.

The Utah Jazz players did not receive Danny Ainge Memo .. The Jazz are undefeated in their 3-0 start of the season. Patrick Beverley should've stayed in Utah, the Lakers are 0-3 LOL

WTF is going on with the Spurs and the Jazz ???
Watching the Knicks I looked at the NBA Board at the end of the 3rd qtr. the Spurs 103 - Timberwolves 71 that led to a Spurs win 115 - 106

The Ja Morrant Grizz beat Brooklyn Nets too ..134-124

Kiya, Bol Bol is one of players that I wanted the Knicks to target during the off season. His athletic skills was very surprising to me. His feet work and moves to basket wasn?t that of a guy that tall. That was when was with Denver.

The other player is Issac. Think we could get both if we put good package together.

Look at the players out for Magic. Would they have made a different in this game? What kind of team will they be when they come back they don?t get rid of Issac and Bol Bol?

Tom Thibodeau's gotta like the Knicks' shot profile right now...

31% of their shots have come at the rim ? 7th in the NBA.

Only 4% of their shots are long 2s ? the 4th-lowest percentage in the NBA.

30% of their 3s are from the corners ? 4th in the NBA.

Jalen Brunson is the first #Knick with at least 50 points, 20 assists and 10 rebounds over the first three games of a season since? Mark Jackson in 1989.

Brunson is the first and only Knick ever to tally 50/20/10 with < 5 turnovers thru three contests

It?s only 3 games but Knicks fans to a man say he?s the PG the Knicks have been looking for since MJ. Like the team play so far this season, let?s go Knicks.

Oh yeah, the young 0-4 Magics team are building a future winner team around the first pick star Paolo Banchero.
Bol Bol 20 minutes of playing-time getting 19 pts, on 80% FG, 50% 3-Ball, 5 rbd, and 4 blocks are a great future weapon to bring off the bench.
Right now, the young Magic team are gonna use the 2022-23 NBA season as their 82 game training camp, and shop the 2023 FA market in the offseason for the teams weakness.

The Knicks Brunson Barrett Randle and MitchRob has been performing well as a team in preseason, and the first 3 games of the season, playing with more confidence each game.
However, the real Knicks test will be in the outcome of the Knicks next 8 games ..
Our record now are 2-1 .. after the next 8 games .. will the Knicks & media play the blame-game, and look to trade players if the Knicks record become 4-7 ???
Or will the Knicks keep building on their confidence for a 7-4 record ???
