Like what, guarding the 3 point line? That's revolutionary.
Knicks do have very weird in-bound problem. Maybe they're going to pressure more.

Sixers honestly didn't have any special plans for Brunson. They guarded him exactly the same way they did in the regular season. Oubre was just a lot more physical. Brunson had plenty of good looks that normally fall. I fully expect him to bounce back game 2. It was nice to see 7 rebounds and 7 assists out of him when he knew he didn't have it going.
There were a few looks early on where I felt he definitely forced it in the face of their coverage, he seemed to be pressing/had the yips. But to your point, he made sure to keep contributing even when the shots weren't there. I expect a 35 point performance in Game 2.

Agreed. These guys are definitely way better than the Cavs last year. The other thing is that adjustments are still being made, so we’re gonna see how both teams counter each other’s strategies.

100%! I think the series will be tied 2-2 one way or another.
There's nothing low-key about itIron Mantis wrote:Love the Sixers coach crying about the Knicks getting a few free throws in a second quarter.
Low key trying to manipulate the reps into swallowing their whistles while they hack and whack Brunson and another Knicks players tonight.
