Hawks-Knicks 2026 Playoffs thread

I know when you sign up to coach Brunson, you gotta accept his “I’m just gonna dribble the ball until I get a shot” style of play

But from a hypothetical x and o standpoint…what coach’s style of play would eat with a Brunson/kat duo?

D’antoni?

Game ain't over, I don't know why y'all overreacting. Knicks just need to stay within distance on the 8-count.

Jalen Johnson lowkey been shook.

Ayo

McCollum is taunting Brunson

Ref's not even looking at him, so I doubt he'll get a taunting tech for this.

He's sonning Brunson right now. Unless the Knicks do something other than JB Iso 1 (their only play") this will be a bad night for them.

They have to get KAT involved and Bridges or OG need to hit 3s.

Eight point game with Bridges shytting the bed. Great run by Clarkson and McBride at the end.

Knicks should basically be running a Jokic-Murray style 2 man game

 

[Unbothered]

Although they were trailing, nice comeback by the Knicks.

 

[AVXL]

Tough way to end the half

Gotta eliminate the turnovers and win the 50/50 balls that Hart has been winning all game. Other than that, good first half

A coach that smacks Brunson upside the head and tells him to pass the rock.

Johnson supposed to be that guy. CJ gonna get tired carrying this squad

Until he gets a consistent jumper...he's gonna struggle in the playoffs

MRob's minutes need to be better. This is a series he should be having an impact and not be -16 on the floor in a half.
