I was told by a Philly/Villanova fan that there are 3 champion players from Villanova who are now starters for the Knicks (at least tonight) - Brunson, Hart and D'Vicenzo. Randle and that big guy Robinson are not even back with the Knicks.It was a real smack down tonight at MSG as the Knicks played like champs and buried a Sixers team in freewill
Final Knicks 106-79 Sixers
As a Celtics fan, I have to point out that last season was supposed to have been a Celtics - Nuggets finals if not for that opening minute sprain of Tatum in Game 7 against the Heat.This is starting to ramp up as a Celtics-Nuggets Finals. Phil are you ready

Anunoby is back and makes massive difference in defense and offensive spacing - even without Randle Knicks will be tough playoff out, with him they are real threat - Celts are better but don't have the defensive intensity and I think their will is suspect - can't wait!Im watching Sixers vs Knicks and this looks like the Knicks of a bygone era. If they could only be consistent. I have always liked Randle
there was never a doubt Phil but I understand why you sound concernedGlad to see Tatum penetrates and drives more to the hoop in tonight's win over Utah. 51 for the Celtics.
so as the article I posted yesterday which said 20 point deficits in the NBA are commonplace to overcome, the Wolves with Gobert were down 22 until Kawhi exited the arena with a back injury ad the Wolves stored back and destroyed the Clippers 118-100.Gobert is playing tonight and the Clippers had a 17 point lead but Kawhi not only leaves the game with a leg injury but he's seen walking out of crypto.com. The Wolves score a few but at the half
Clippers 63-55 Wolves
Kings also aere a good team but not always consistent. Lakers get them tonight on a back to back. What I find interesting is that the West is filled with good teams so the Kings are in the 7 spot behind the Suns. IMO the Kings are a better team than the Suns who are even more inconsistent than the KingsBucks just got annihilated by the Kings. Fox is a premier guard. Monk can pour it in.
DLo was the number 2 overall pick in 2015, Unicorn was only 4th He reminds me of Boston's IT, very same style, can shoot long and slash, but is 3 inches taller, which is a lot in the NBA.D'Lo is my second favorite player on the Lakers. He has been somewhat of a jooyurneyman since Lakers traded him shortly after being drafted, but this year he is a key and clutch player for the Lakers. Great assessment of him this year
D'Angelo Russell's journey from Lakers trade chip to clutch time hero: 'I'm ready for it. I studied for this test'
D'Angelo Russell wasn't moved at the trade deadline. Instead, he became vital to L.A.'s playoff hopes
After pushing through the noise of last month's trade deadline, D'Angelo Russell has become an X factor during the Lakers' postseason push.www.espn.com
Fox is an amazing player as I am watching the game. FWIW Austin Reaves scored 12 0f the 1st 13 lakers pointsBattle of the 6'3" lefties - Fox vs D Lo.
