    You gotta dribble what’s he doing? Hold the ball. He throws it away. And then the jumper that should’ve been money. He ain’t ready.

    Wemby pulled an Isiah Thomas ouch. This one hurts

    Wish Fox would have talen the last shot of I was there coach. Catch and shoot mid range is kind of tough one

    The spurs inexperience showed. Lots of turnovers, and questionable plays cost them this game.

    why not call immediate timeout once Wemby got that rebound? The Knicks defense was already getting set. I think brown has out coached Johnson so far.

    totally agree with you at the end, why is that mid range your final play. Not like Wemby is good at that type of shot at this point in his career. Attack the basket and try to draw a foul.

    I am sorry, but this was awful coaching. Wemby spent the whole game playing like he was KD instead of using his length at the post

    They traded for Fox, who deferred to Wemby the whole 2nd half.

    Would gladly send 3 FRPs for Sabonis and send Bron packing for 3&D/cap...

    That’s how he usually plays though, he plays like a guard. He’s only 22 though, I imagine he will develop some post game at some point, and then teams will really be in trouble. Right now he’s still not fully there, he’s great, but he can be disrupted with physicality, Kat and Robinson both really bothered him tonight, hell even Alvarado got to him on that one box out where he tossed him in frustration.

    And to be fair to Fox, he hasn’t been right since he hurt his ankle, before that he was having a great season. The Knicks just played a fantastic game thought, swinging the ball around for good looks, all over the place on defense, and withstood not getting a lot of calls down the stretch in a crazy physical game. For real that was one of the most physical, let them play games I have seen in a long time, it was so much more entertaining than a free throw fest.
