The Knicks last night, great win over New Orleans.

I mean, this team, it's just, you expect nothing less at this point.

Well, this is, well, because we talk a lot about Tibbs and how Tom Thibito was so important to get the culture change for the New York Knicks.

And then they started to upgrade the, like the roster.

But there is just something about developing everybody.

It's not just, hey, grow and be a good player, Jalen Brunson, you know, Carl Anthony Towns and OG, grow and be a good player.

It's these guys, Tyler Colick or Mo DiWara last night.

All of these guys now have a role and they feel important.

Like individually, they think that they're important to this team.

Because they are.

They played 12 guys last night.

Yeah.

Now, Hawk Party was bad.

But other than that, everybody was, like, everybody contributed in this game. And so when I watch what the Knicks have become, it's deep and it's survivable when Josh Hart, who's now out with an injury, is not there. That's exactly it. They could not survive, like when OG got hurt last year, they could not survive the injuries or they wouldn't be able to in the postseason as we saw it saw it with the war of attrition. This is accomplishing two things for the Knicks now this year. Number one, it's helping them by playing 12 guys deep like last night avoid some of the overextension of minutes unnecessarily in some of these games that should keep the bodies healthier come the postseason. And it's getting them valuable experience now that.

So if you do have a key injury come the postseason, because that's what this is all about for the Knicks team. You will have guys you feel comfortable going to because you relied on them all season long. Or if somebody gets cold. Yes. And look, I mean, the Knicks are so deep right now. past years were worried about like, oh, what are the Knicks going to be, you know, fishing for in the buyout market?

I don't even know if you're worried about that with this bench right now.

You probably couldn't. past years were worried about like, oh, what are the Knicks going to be, you know, fishing for in the buyout market?

I don't even know if you're worried about that with this bench right now. You probably could because you could use another wing or big, you know, just another guard, something like that. But they're so good, Tiki, they could roll with what they have. 100%. They really are. I mean, they closed the lineup out last night, and it was, it was Deuce and Jalen and OG, who's been unbelievable defensively.

And Cat, obviously, Carl Anthony Towns, and then we're watching it now. It was so well coached and well done. Their close-out team right now is make shots.

They can play relatively good defense.

And even against some of the better teams, you don't feel, you don't fear them.

No.
