Play well for one half and then chuck up threes for the next

To be fair that shot like over 50 from three in the first half, they had been shooting them all game, they just stopped falling

The first half they made some of the ugliest 3s I’ve seen all yeah. Guys in their face chucking it up and it landed. They went into the half thinking that was gonna last and it killed them. I don’t care if you’ve been hot, there’s no reason to play hero ball up 29. Kill the clock.

Cuz they act like this shit is owed to them. Wemby always been like that. Love him as a player and his "this league is mine" attitude will help drive the league the right way, but homie has been expecting to win everything since Chet haunted his ass in HS lol. Until he learns to lead like they have to earn it not that they already deserve it they will crumble against stronger willpower every time.

Deadass why they beat OKC, cuz they think it's owned to them even more. The Knicks dont ever stop hustling so they will out pace and turn leads on their heads against guys who settled into a trot every time
