Tyus

Yup...I'll say it again...need him back in 'Sota to run the 2nd unit asap.

AD can block/alter shots from the 3pt line to the paint. Move his feet great and recover. Dray is a great defender but he's too small to make the impact that AD has made.

I don't know what games y'all be watching sometimes.

Always nice when people can admit they were wrong

Heat look so small against the Knicks.

 

[Mister Meaner]

Hate early afternoon starts just as much as the Knicks apparently.

Sluggish offensive start for the new number 1 defense in the league.

I’m gonna miss this guy screaming “terry!!!!”

graphic will break records in May

Please break down how Dray is a better defender than AD

Better on the perimeter switching on smaller, quicker players.

Better communicator from a team defense perspective. “QB of defense”

Can have just as much success at guarding elite big men than anyone in the league, take Jokic for example-

 

[pmatic]

Whoa, Josh Hart.

 

[nick.]

This McBride-Grimes-OG-Hart-Precious lineup has been hell for teams recently.

[don ramon]

this is a very competitive game. diggin it

 

[antidope]

No is as good of a help defender/scheme reader than Draymond is. I think there's a discounting of that/over emphasis on all ball stuff within this discussion.

I posted before I got to the last page but yeah.

This is Embiid’s first time playing in Denver since 2019

 

[toneboi76]

Knicks are a fun watch

 

[Mister Meaner]

Iirc NY had 61 in the half v Nugs in the last game too.

similar ending

 

[Mister Meaner]

Bob Myers said it best; We’re laughing at you, not the Knicks.

Cannot stand this Screamin’A

Word is that he’s lost his fan card in the city too.
