    Been pumping this guy for years. Glad he figured it out. Super good person as well.

    It was great to just see how much fun he was having last night. It's supposed to be a fun game (except for the Warriors, heh).

    He always played tight / tentative in the playoffs as a Knick, while playing better while healthy in the regular season.

    Had to be a mental thing, but he's clearly over it now. Or maybe it was a Thibs thing.

    Huge props to Randall for going to another level. In the playoffs, he's changed from being a serious choker to playing the best ball of his career.

    Minny has a clear hierarchy and now Randle's role is defined. He's there to kill the little guy who switches on him in the post after the initial rotation and he's thriving. Bully ball is making a big comeback with all the switching now.
