Game Thread: New York Knicks vs Denver Nuggets 7:30 10/30/2017 [Game #6]

Tie game. Every possession is a turnover. Pathetic.

This is the NBA so it doesn't surprise me that the Nugs tied it. Good test for KP, lets see if he can put the Knicks on his back and close the deal.

Big RB by Quinn. Feasting on the FT line tonight.

The rumor is true .. the Nuggets rotation of guards has been stepping up their game in the 2nd half of every game after the Phoenix Suns Bledsoe asked to be traded

If KP step up like he did last night in the 2nd half he gets big praise from me

 

[htr10]

O?Quinn with 15 points and 9 rebounds in 13 minutes.

Ntilikina drains the 3 to get the lead back to 5.

 

[htr10]

THJ drains the 3 for his 1st points of the night with 9 minutes to go in the 4th. He immediately scores again on the next possession. Needs to get it going here.

 

[htr10]

THJ again with another 3. Lead is 6.

 

[htr10]

Nuggets? Murray looks like he never shuts his mouth. Just jawing and jawing. THJ now with 11 points in the last 2 minutes. Maybe Murray will close his trap now.

Timmy taking over hit the last 11 points after scoring nada all game. Love that shoulder shimmy he does.

 

[tiger0330]

Not a big fan of subbing in a guy when the guy going out has been a beast. Kanter in for Quinn.

 

[htr10]

KP gets the roll on the turnaround jumper. He has 34 and the lead is 6 with 90 seconds to go.

THJ gave us the 7 pt lead ..

His D has been important. Just blocked Harris. Quinn has been a beast also.

 

[htr10]

MVP chants for KP. He drains 2 free throws and gives himself a new career high of 36 points.

Jokic hits a 3 down the other end. Lead is 4 with 3.5 seconds to go.

 

[htr10]

KP finishes with 38 points. Three game win streak and we are a 0.500 team. I?m shocked. I thought for sure we?d never see 0.500 again after starting 0 - 3.

Let?s go Knicks!

KP when asked in post-game interview about his 38 points: ?I should have gotten more rebounds?.

#kporzee is proving the naysayers(muah) wrong to start, even someone such as Clyde who had doubts. What I like about his game he actually must have listened to some of Phil's advice and laid off the stupid 3s and he's doing damage in the mid-range area. Kanter does work even closer. NOT EVERYONE HAS TO SHOOT 3s

Career High for #kporzee too, gotta give props where due :aplause: :aplause: :aplause:

Going to give credit to Horn after putting in Kanter for Quinn, he reversed himself after Kanter was in for a minute and put Quinn back in. He was instrumental down the stretch in closing out the game.

KP when asked in post-game interview about his 38 points: “I should have gotten more rebounds”.

I love this reply and would like to see him do better here. It's obvious he's not going score 30pts every night but he pretty much should have double digit rebounding every night.
