Chance to get back on track. Of course, our awful idiot fans will start booing if we fall behind 2 to 0, so looking forward to that. They might even boo Randle every time he touches the ball. Really going to have free agents lining up to come play for us after this season.

[htr10]

Noel and Reddish both available to play. Unclear if Reddish has practiced enough to be a part of the rotation yet.

No Kemba Walker today because of his knee. But, he should be available to play tomorrow.

[htr10]

Good start so far. But need to cut down on the sloppiness.

MRob airballs a FT.

[htr10]

Quickley, Noel, and Grimes first 3 Knicks off the bench.

Noel gets a steal. Quickley knocks down a 3. 1st quarter lead is 12.

[htr10]

Cam Reddish checks into the game for the closing seconds of the 1st quarter. Gets a huge ovation from the crowd.

[htr10]

Thibs going with a 2nd unit of Noel, Obi, Reddish, Grimes, and Quickley.

Another steal for Noel sets up Quickley to get the assist for the fast break Toppin dunk.

[Dark Raider]

It funny how Cam can walk in and start playing immediately. But Knox who we drafted couldn't get off the bench.

This is the problem with the Knicks and that is why it's hard to pull for them under any circumstances.

[htr10]

Offense has been flowing well but too many lapses on defense. Lead is only 5 at halftime.

[mafra]

RJ leading the charge…. Gonna be some upset people here.

[htr10]

Quickley really showing some progress as a playmaker. Threads the needle for the Randle slam.

[htr10]

RJ now with 28 points, 10 boards, and 4 assists.

Lead is 13 with 8 minutes to go.

[htr10]

Randle with 20 points, 6 boards, and 5 assists. 50% shooting from the floor including 50% shooting from 3.

[htr10]

Nice win. After allowing 61 points in the 1st half, they tighten up and allow only 41 points in the 2nd half.

[mafra]

Tough game in CLE tomorrow… be nice to keep the positive momentum going.
