kind of a satisfying victory and a comeback victory at that. And when you think about no envy, that's a big deal. But during the broadcast, Mike Breen and the guys were talking about, you know, one team, you know, is already on vacation. The other team, you know, could take advantage of that. And I think that's exactly what the Knicks did here. And it was finally nice to see Jose Alvarado calm down because they were saying that he was nervous, obviously, in his first game at Madison Square Garden. And he missed his first couple shots. You know, he threw up a couple bricks. He did. And then all of a sudden, you know, he started to come around. And obviously everybody's happy to have him here. I think the Mike Brown's happy to have him here. Josh Hart was talking about

his defensive intensity and the way that he brings the energy, all the stuff that came with him

as part of his reputation when the Knicks brought him in. So yeah, I mean, that game was over

after the first quarter. I mean, it was, I mean, Philadelphia didn't really come to play.

No, no, but it's still, I mean, they needed this.

Like, they needed to wash off that stench going into the All-Star break,

because I would have been worried if they had come out and had another stinker.

And the other thing I really loved about Alvarado last night was,

so there's that hard foul on Mitchell Robinson in the second

quarter and who's been here for five minutes gets up and gets in the face of the Sixers

player is Jose Alvarado.

Yeah, it's kind of like adding an enforcer at the trade deadline for a hockey team.

Yeah, there you go.

And that kind of thing.

Yeah, that type of thing, which is great. So, yeah, I mean, and, and, um, there you go. That kind of thing. Yeah, that type of thing, which was,

which is great. So yeah, I mean, and, and, um, Jalen Brunson, who had 40 points in a loss, has eight points in a win. And of course, you're going to need him, but still, that's the type of thing we're talking about and all the assists that they had. So it was, it was a really, really good one. Now we get this

all-star break and as we talked about

it's for kids who enjoy assists that they had. So it was a really, really good one. Now we get this, you know, this All-Star break.

And as we talked about, it's for, it's for kids who enjoy highlight basketball and all of that. They got eight days. And then when they come back, they open with Detroit at home. That's right. And then when you take a look at their, you know, you know me, I'm a big schedule guy. Big look ahead guy with the schedule at least. Big schedule look ahead guy.

They got Detroit and Houston at home.

Then they're at Chicago, at Cleveland, at Milwaukee, San Antonio home at Toronto, and then Oklahoma City, Denver, and the Lakers, Clippers, Utah, and Indiana.

You got a little West Coast swing there.
