Mitchell Robinson is expected to be available for the Knicks in Game 1 against the Spurs after fully participating in practice Tuesday following right hand surgery, sources tell @ShamsCharania

Knicks need game 1 to make this a series. Even then I think San Antonio has too many big guards that will harass Brunson and make him work. They can alternate Castle, Harper, Vassell, and Fox on him. He'll have a lot of long nights and will need Anunoby, KAT, Mikal. and Hart to play at a high level.

I just think the Spurs defense is going to be far more effective against the Knicks than the Knicks D on the Spurs.

If Wemby would always assert himself by forcing his way towards the basket the Spurs would always win, but sometimes he is just content to take long jumpers the whole game for some weird reason.

Seems to be the new thing to run a Center with 4 guards. Both the Spurs and Knicks are doing that. Obviously the Suns do. There's probably more teams that run lineups like that than traditional lineups. OKC, Minnesota, and Cleveland are the only ones that stand out as running more traditional lineups.

Brunson is amazing! Hurt his knee in the first half. His ankle in the 3rd qtr. And still takes over the game - AGAIN - late in the 4th.
Gonna be a great series. Knicks NEED Brunson to be great. Spurs need Wemby to be dominant.

The get-in price for Game 3 at Madison Square Garden has climbed to $6,207.

That’s the cheapest seat in the building.

Knicks were actually really impressive. I have never seen them play that well. I will admit I have not been watching the East playoff games.

Still think Spurs will win if they can just get Wemby involved in trying to score in the paint. Really I think all they have to do is just lob it to him over and over. He will get about a million foul shots that way because nobody else can get up to the ball like he can.
