Brooklyn Nets @ New York Knicks - 1/30/2018 - 7:30 PM EST

Keys to the game: Put effort in all game long.

Go, Knicks:gony:!!!

Must lose game if you're on the tank. Must win if you're not.

Knicks are wearing those alternate NYFD unis. So far a fast paced offensive game with good shooting by both teams.

Frank and Baker now in the backcourt. If Trey scored 50 I don't think Horn would do anything different.

Frank misses an easy layup but that shot will start falling with more experience. He showed an NBA handle with a crossover and went behind his back on the same play. The Knicks days off and practice seem to have helped.

Burke getting minutes now because Baker went to the locker room earlier with what might be a concussion.

Shoulder injury for Baker.

Knicks looking like they want to convince Perry to buy (not sell). Might not be enough, although it?s refreshing to see some fight left in them.

KP en fuego from downtown. 4-4 5-11 overall though.

Frank playing the SG tonight. Maybe the better position to play him taking away the PG responsibility while he developd.

10-11-3 for Kanter at the half... 18-4-3 for KP and 7-5 for MB. Timmy with 7 points and KOQ with 5 boards. 14 points combined from Jack, Lee, Knits and Burke.

NYK up 61-41 at the half. Looks like this is an easy W.

Knicks up 61-41 in a laugher at the half. The tank stalled tonight I don't see them losing this one.

Kanter blocks Crabbe rebounds the ball and thinks he's Dray starting the break and dribbles the ball all the way to the other end dishes it to Jack who passes it back and Enes does a one hand Turkish hammer.

Alan Crabbe sucks, one good year in Portland. A lesson to be learned about signing a guy after one good year to a big contract.

Ironic that the Nets who have away all those draft picks in the KG/PP deal wind up with 2 of the highest picks from the 2015 draft in Okafor and Russell. Both young enough to develop into something but I doubt they live up to their draft expectations.

Tig carrying the game thread tonight. Between child care and having to finish work, barely able to watch the game. Dolan must like that we really have Brooklyn?s number this season.

Kanter with 20 boards tonight. 20 points on 8 of 10 shooting from the floor. 20/20/5 game including Kanter's 5 assists. The last 2 Knicks before tonight to have 20/20/5 games were apparently David Lee and Willis Reed.

Pretty much a wire to wire win. They were missing the Hyphen and Lavert so they were short handed. KP had a career high 6 3s and Kanter was a beast all night with a 20/20 night along with 5 dimes and a highlight play to start the second half.

My crazy self watch the SOTU tonight and box-scored watched the game. I figured we had this one in the bag. Brooklyn is a bad basketball team
