The Clippers were on a 8-2 record run in their last 10 games when they entered MSG.
The Clippers have a super-star scoring PG Harden, and a super star wing Kawhi.
Plus a 2-Way 7' foot center Zubac.
I'm wondering .. what strategy and plan did HC Tibbs have for the Clippers Game in MSG?
Knowing the Knicks were without starter guard Brunson, and 6th man guard Deuce for the game.
Did HC Tibbs talk to the replacement bench-player guards Payne & Kolek before the game?
Just wondering?
Payne average 10 to 12 minutes of playing time per game this season in each of the Knicks 70 games.
Yesterday, Tibbs played Payne 12 minutes in the first quarter against Clippers, then in the 2nd quarter Payne went down with a right ankle sprain that took him out the game.
Rookie Kolek average 1 or 2 minutes per game this season in each of the Knicks 70 games.
Yesterday, Tibbs played Kolek the entire 12 minutes of the 3rd quarter against the Clippers.
Kolek did well the first 10 minutes of the 3rd quarter in holding the Knicks lead however, Kolek and a few teammates legs went out the final 2 minutes of the quarter.
Delon Wright average 15 minutes per game the past 3 seasons.
Yesterday, Tibbs played Delon the entire 12 minutes of the 4th quarter alongside fatigue teammates without any energy to go on a run.
