I still have doubts with Randle that may ruin the Knicks team. I saw him at the crucial moments trying to take the outside shot for a winning moment even though it's Fournier who has the free space. That could have been an unselfish move if he passed it and he will still have half the credit for it. At the end he missed it and I am sure they will look at the replays even though they won the game. He has to learn more and being a team player is part of that.
I have this bad feeling that soon, the Knicks problem will be that everyone is trying to be a star and co-players being a threat to reach that instead of a team.
Sound pessimistic but that is how I see it. It's mostly the issue for a young core team.

That's very important, give the ball to the open man, but we can also say that he thought he can make it as his height he is an advantage and he is also a good 3 point shooter. In the regular season, it may not be noticed a lot but in the playoffs, every wrong move could have a big effect on the outcome of the game and we saw those mistakes from Randle in the past playoffs.

He needed to adjust and start to show that he's willing to work with anyone to win the game.
This is where LeBron was criticized (not a king fan)but it's a matter of trust and good working relation with your teammate.
Fournier is free and has hot hands.
letting him to take the last shot might send them to a win without going to OT.
Forget about it, they already won the game. What they need now is to continue working together to solidify the team. Congrats!

^ This type of plays should be highly criticized and he needs to learn from these types of mistakes. These types of mistakes can cost them a match. He needs to be more unselfish when he's playing. Fournier was clearly free and was he should have passed the ball. Yes, they eventually won the game but what if it was a crucial shot that decides the fate of the match? Maybe he would not have been so much criticized if he hadn't missed the shot but he should make better choices in regards to passing or shooting the ball.

Watching the Bulls game right now. Its great seeing them actually have a team that is competitive with a legitimate future. I know they aren’t winning any championships this year or anything but they are on their way to being able to have a team good enough to attract a mega star.

That's true, at least they'll improve this season and they still maintain to be a defensive team.
DeRozan, Ball, and Caruso are the major addition to this team, with their experience especially DeRozan, he can help this team to be more competitive in the playoffs. I am optimistic that they'll make it to the playoffs this season although other teams have already improved as well.

They are showing that this team has got the potential and can be a tough team to defeat in future. Yes they are a very competitive team, they may or may not win but I think they can make to the playoff of this season and give a good fight to its opponents.

With the addition of Derozan who has a consistent experience of getting into the playoffs, you can already see the upgrade of the team and the expectation is high for this team although we can't expect that they'll win a championship. The East now has lots of strong teams, of course, we still have the 76ers, Bucks, Nets, Heat, Celtics, and the Atlanta Hawks who had an amazing journey last playoffs.

I'm not expecting as well a championship contender with the likes of Bulls this time but seems they are more decent team and more likely to reach the playoffs. I think Heat was the competitive one on the East this time around just next to the Bucks and Nets of course but I'm expecting a competitive Hawks too this season, they are the young guns and more the Dark Horse on the East.

Kemba is not the same anymore, even during his time with the Boston Celtics, he is already inconsistent and that's the reason why he was traded to the Knicks which I think he would do well as there's not much pressure on him compared to when he signed with the Celtics where he was coming from a team that he always leads. Celtics traded him because they weren't satisfied of Kemba's performance, but let's hope we will see the old Kemba in NYK.

Being traded means the player is a dead weight to the team especially when his salary is big enough to acquire young players with potential to grow. Kemba Walker performance is very impressive when he was rookie but this started to slide after a couple of years without any improvement and competition from new players that entering NBA with potential. It's very rare for an old prime player to overcome this period of career low especially on his position. Maybe joining on low tier team can improve his career stat just like what other players did and wait for a star player to carry that team.

So much true, Kemba was a prolific young talent as a rookie. But as the years passed on, not saying that he started playing worse, but there were other young talents better than him. Last season was somewhat ok for him as he scored an avg of 19 points a game and as a point guard that's quite good in my eyes. Let's see how he does with the Knicks.

Yeah very very stressful game it was with a lot of ups and downs and it was not easy to predict where this match was going. Surely it was game of the night and Jalen brown just turned it around with that half court 3 just 5 seconds before the end. Woow amazing game

Yeah, it was an epic battle at MSG. Jaylen Brown had a sensational performance, and he looked unstoppable. Unfortunately for him and for the Celtics, it wasn't enough to win. By the way, the starting lineup of the Knicks also performed great, although Walker's debut did not impress.

I thought that Kemba will play very good against his former team. Anyhow, it was a classic game 2 OT, players are all tired. But there can only be one winner and NYK bench was the key, specially Fournier, ex-Celtics who scored 32 in 44 minutes. Randle leads the team but he is being criticised for taking a bad shot and should have pass the ball instead for Fournier.

Kemba is not the same anymore, even during his time with the Boston Celtics, he is already inconsistent and that's the reason why he was traded to the Knicks which I think he would do well as there's not much pressure on him compared to when he signed with the Celtics where he was coming from a team that he always leads. Celtics traded him because they weren't satisfied of Kemba's performance, but let's hope we will see the old Kemba in NYK.

It's the first game of the regular season, Kemba will help his team for sure.

Good thing that Fournier plays well and helps Randle. Kemba's performance is not as it best but the rest of the team is there
to help him and complete the win.

Expect more from NYK, looking forward to them to have another shot in the playoff and win, too early though..

What's important is they win the game, and for sure the NYK has matured already and they will be a better team this season compared to the previous. As usual, Randle always delivers in the regular season, and this season they have Fournier who is a legit shooter, they needed that if they are struggling inside.

I still have doubts with Randle that may ruin the Knicks team. I saw him at the crucial moments trying to take the outside shot for a winning moment even though it's Fournier who has the free space. That could have been an unselfish move if he passed it and he will still have half the credit for it.

Yeah, I agree with your observation, it seems that Randle really wanted to be the franchise player of the Knicks and should be the one taking the last shot. Unfortunately, he didn't make it and we all know that Fournier is a good outside shooter.

Hopefully this will not be the story of the Knicks this year, last year was very different though, everyone is contributing and making good plays and everyone can take the last shot.

Watching the Bulls game right now. Its great seeing them actually have a team that is competitive with a legitimate future. I know they aren’t winning any championships this year or anything but they are on their way to being able to have a team good enough to attract a mega star.

They're not there yet but if they continue to play such games in the future then they will have a chance like what we have seen in the Knicks last year most of their players have improved a lot. I don't know, maybe if they can somehow win some games throughout the season, they can still manage to get to the playoffs.

Anyway, the OT game Boston vs Knicks is exciting to watch.

Knick game game of the night for sure. What a back and forth game. Jalen brown hit almost a half court 3 with 5 seconds left. 6 straight made threes back and forth by both teams in ot, back and forth in the 2nd ot, and knicks finally made enough plays. Stressful game 1 to watch but a good game 1 for sure lol.

Yeah very very stressful game it was with a lot of ups and downs and it was not easy to predict where this match was going. Surely it was game of the night and Jalen brown just turned it around with that half court 3 just 5 seconds before the end. Woow amazing game

Yeah jalwn brown career high with almost 50 points and takes the loss, oh well as a knick fan will take this one. Only 81 more to go lol. Just glad nba is back since the NY giants are done until 2035 when they might get their shit together.
