Jalen Brunson is the best Knicks signing of all time

Miller/Melo are going to be a potent as gently caress combo in a year or two

Cmon Knicks fans can't get excited that Melo is gonna turn their franchise around again

I can recommend everyone to do the free subscription to Basketball Intelligence: https://www.basketballintelligence.net/

They will just email you a bunch of different links to articles on several different sites about teams and players from all across the league. The links are usually to local coverage.

Nice

Seriously though that game was awesome fun. Luka was in a real good mood too, clowning around and joking with everyone. I like that version of him better than the rear end in a top hat complaining Luka. Maybe he was high? Or maybe that was just his new 'day-drunk step-dad' look.

Jayson Tatum is the early +/- leader this year:

code:

Player		Tm	+/-
Jayson Tatum	BOS	176
Jrue Holiday	BOS	130
Nikola Jokic	DEN	125
Tyrese Maxey	PHI	125

There are only two Tyrese's in the NBA and they're both in the top five of WS.

-The Raptors continue their favorite team domination.
