Well, I hear that they're dogs and they're going to do damage.

That's what I've been told.

I've heard that as well.

So the Knicks are up by 17 with four and a half to go when Julius tumbles to the ground.

And you know immediately he seriously hurt.

He doesn't take his free throws, which means he's out of the game.

But more than that, you could just see the pain and anguish he was in as he walked to the locker room.

Before we get into the injury and the update, let me just address this off the top.

And you tell me if I'm wrong, Tiki.

Yeah.

I will defend Tom Thibodeau on this because the way I look at big leads in the NBA,

when they take their stars out, I'll take my stars out.

Miami still had Jimmy on the floor. Yeah. They still had Bam on the floor. It's a 17 point game with four and a half minutes to go. I know it's easy.

Oh, Tom DeBan. I don't know what he does. But I can't take my guys out until I know it's over. And they

haven't taken their guys out yet. I'm all right keeping my starters in. Well, especially if it's not, I mean, obviously it's aggressive

because it's the NBA and the heat are trying to

win this game, but it's, it wasn't like a

chippy game. It wasn't like there were cheap

shots, cheap shots coming

and things of that nature. And

if you're Tom Thibito,

winning that game is important. I think so.
