111-96 winner winner JR with 34 good games by Bullock, Rose and Peyton as well.
Well tonight Knicks WIN .. coach Thibs let Randle's 39 min get payback for the 4 non-growth yrs of poor-sorry coaching Randle receive from the previous consistent lottery Lakers.
The Knicks performance made Drummond look awful tonight.
The Knicks team 3-point shooting tonight were 5-27 AWFUL 18% shooting.
I was proud of Payton's scoring performance tonight, he didn't shoot any stupid 3's, and scored 20 pts on 9-12 fg in 27 min.

With the season tottering on the edge, to beat MEM, TOR and LAK for a 3 game win streak drastically increases their odds to finish in top 10.
Now we go to NO and DAL then come home for NO, CHA, ATL, TOR, PHO, CHI.... then comes May and a 6-game West Coast swing and come home to end season against SAS, CHA, and BOS.
Try to split the NO/DAL road trip and take 4 of the 6 at home. Go 5-3 next 8 bc we might go 4-5 final 9 games.

Bad lineup: Elfrid Payton | Reggie Bullock | RJ Barrett | Julius Randle | Nerlens Noel
Stats: 109.5 offensive rating | 114.7 defensive rating | -5.2 net rating | 310 minutes played | 2nd most used lineup
Good lineup: Derrick Rose | Immanuel Quickley | Alec Burks | Obi Toppin | Taj Gibson
Stats: 115.5 offensive rating | 96.3 defensive rating | +19.2 net rating | 107 minutes played | 3rd most used lineup
Noticeable difference in net rating between the Knicks 2nd unit and the starting five. If Thibs is serious about making some noise for the playoffs heāll replace EP with DRose in the starting 5 and perhaps go with Taj as well instead of Noel.
