RJ Barrett is doing the usual RJ Barrett things, but also doing things RJ Barrett doesn’t always do – very nice passes to DiVincenzo and Quickley for layups. – 8:21 PM

Trae Young has now handed out five-or-more dimes in 109 straight games (since 1/26/22), tied with Guy Rodgers for the seventh-longest such streak in NBA history. – 8:18 PM

Jalen Johnson is just playing on another level. Picked off Immanuel Quickley took it down court, slipped making a pass to Saddiq Bey, who finished the play.
Johnson is good – 8:17 PM

Guy just did a scoreboard proposal here during kiss cam, she said yes and he’s getting more high fives than Jalen Johnson got on the dunk. People, he did a scoreboard proposal. Don’t encourage him. – 8:14 PM

1Q: Knicks 35, Hawks 31
It’s safe to say that Jalen Johnson gave the Hawks a much-needed energy boost after the one-handed poster. Hawks came as close as w/in 1-pt of the Knicks after trailing by 10 with 3:13 in the quarter. – 8:12 PM

After miserable shooting opener – Knicks are 11-for-21 from the field, 5-for-10 from three and 8-of-10 from the line in the first quarter…and lead 35-31. – 8:10 PM

After going scoreless in his Knicks debut, Donte DiVincenzo scores the first 5 points of his NYK career in Atlanta on back-to-back possessions: first a cutting layup, then a top-of-the-key three. – 8:09 PM

Knicks jump out to a 26-16 lead over the Hawks to start this one. Trae Young has yet to score. Knicks have taken care of the ball and have forced 2 Atlanta turnover so far tonight. – 8:01 PM

Ex-Jazz coach Quin Snyder unsurprised by Jalen Brunson’s ascent with #Knicks.
“That (2022 playoff) series, he was the best player on the floor and Luka (Doncic) was out, and there’s times where he was the best player on the floor when Luka was in.” nydailynews.com/2023/10/27/ex-… – 7:56 PM

Would not have anticipated the Knicks improved free throw shooting tonight starting with Mitchell Robinson line driving in two in a row. You can’t predict basketball. – 7:49 PM

Easy to focus on his scoring but in Boston’s opener the Knicks were 6-of-25 shooting with Kristaps Porzingis defending. That included four blocks.
Over at @DKSportsbook, they’ve got Porzingis at -120 for over 1.5 blocks against the Heat. #DKPartner

Also, the best thing that could have happened to Detroit is PJ lighting the Hawks up in the Hornets’ opener. He’s 1-5 and has taken some bad, contested shots. – 7:20 PM

In addition to Victor Wembanyama, @TimMartin_TX has trained Trae Young, Rudy Gobert, Tyrese Maxey, Nic Claxton and many others.

Porzingis, Holiday, Tatum OFF, Brown ON – 5 mins. 120 off. rating 130 def. rating. Don’t think you should see much of that look when those four starters are healthy and available, but 2/3 FG by Brown led to better offense than I remember. 10 possessions. 13-12 NYK. – 2:18 PM
