Pacers win used to be the win of the year. THIS is the win of the year so far.

And yea JK got eaten up a bit at the end, but I love Kerr's call there. IMO the best way to develop someone is to put them in the scenario where you need them to thrive, and if they dont, they now have a to-do list for next time. JK can look at those Booker possessions as the reference point as he does better going further. Kerr's stubborness finally doing some good

Yeah. And him being there allowed dray and wiggins make a couple of defensive plays down the stretch on help.

Podz is looking better on help too.. I think the best 5 man unit is becoming clearer and clearer each day

We all want klay to play well. But this team plays so much better when he is on the bench.

It’s not just the shooting. It’s the defensive intensity, night and day with him on/off the floor.

Melo and amare should thrive in this offense. If Jeremy Tyler and cole Aldridge looked that good in summer league then us knick fans have a lot to be excited about. Make room for all the bandwagoners when we take off

His defense on Book was great on the second to last possession. Forced him to give it up. Good stuff.

NBA and refs dont like admitting mistakes unless its in a much less publicized tweet a day after the game saying whoops, sorry we missed it, oh well

They can call any contact a foul technically, so really its about consistency through the game and I'm not sure when it happened but man, the reffing quality in basketball has really been the **** for a couple years now. For and against the Warriors

Didnt do bad on him the rest of the game either.. keep him as POA defender. It may be a little bumpy at first but it unlocks everything around him. And he already set the bar high for his POA defense as a rookie.. if he gets back to that level, and if Dray/Wiggins stay healthy, that's the makings of a borderline elite defense

good win but we need to work on the offensive execution. We barely beat them with Curry made 9/16 of his threes. Pods, Klay and Wiggins should work on the shot selection..really terrible offense for like 10 -15 mins

Klay is going to regret turning down that 2/48 extension.

This game really drove the point home. Klay tried to play the right way. He had two strips that saved buckets. He even got a tough contested rebound.

And yet he was still bad. He was sucking the air out the team when he was out there. I feel for the guy but he’s gotta go.

Suns have been to the finals a few times but they have never won a championship.

Kerr will still slow walk Klay. Tonight’s 24 minutes will be the benchmark until it costs us a game.

Problem is, we can’t afford any extra losses anymore.
