Game Thread: New York Knicks @ Orlando Magic 7:00 pm 3/6/2017 [Game#64]

Biyombo with a hard shot to WHG's head. WHG is a tough kid and is going to stay on the floor despite a rapidly swelling black eye
 
Credit to WHG and Biyombo for laughing the hard play off together. Guys let things get ugly way too often

WHG "Thats going to leave a mark" Tough call against Biz, just going up strong for his dunk.

Called a foul against WHG and a tech against Biz for giving WHG a black eye.
 
With 20 seconds to go in the 3rd quarter, Hornacek remembers O'Quinn is on the team and puts him into the game
 
O'Quinn hits back to back jumpers to cut the Magic lead to 1. I guess Hornacek did keep him fresh for the 4th quarter

Quinn making 2 quick buckets as soon as he enters the game. The last being a nice 2 man game between Randle and him.

This is what happens when the young guys don't have to defer to Melo every time down and they play more focused defense, their heads are in the game .
I can hear Randle saying "does any of you guys miss Brandon Jennings now" ?

Thomas Quinn and CLee coming up big to take the lead against the Magic. Horn giving props to Randle for that drive to the basket and for his aggressive play.

Better ball movement with Randle in the lineup. If Rose was in there he would have driven it into the lane and took the shot, Randle drives it in and gives it up to CLee for an open shot.
 
Kyle O'Quinn has played 9 minutes and his plus/minus is +14. Chasson Randle has played 22 minutes and his plus/minus is +29. Crazy.

It's one game, and against the Magic, but it's nice not seeing Melo's predictable play. He really needs to play like he did last season on offense if he wants to make the team better.
