This is the consequences of giving someone like SGA the MVP award. You are practically begging players to flop. Now you are seeing players like Brunson & Jokic flopping when they don’t need to.

Sorry Stephen A the momentum had shifted on the pistons side!! If you bring PJ Tucker in then he still has to take shots as well.

First Brunsons Flop level is over 9000! Ny has more talent on paper but Detroit has a better TEAM. The Knicks are overrated and it’s funny nobody is calling this out.. they lost 3-1 regular season and they don’t play to their talent level. DETROIT in the other hand.. isn’t intimidated by ANY TEAM in the league i know ESPN hasn’t really followed Detroit their record should be even better !!!!

Brunson got to get everybody involved stop dribbling some much with the ball get other players involved

Tobias Harris, the power forward 😂…I look at the PF greats, Duncan, KG, Sheed, Webber, Coleman, Karl…in this small ball era, a Tobias Harris, Vanderbilt, Funney-Smith are 4’s…they woulda got backed into the baseline and dunked on 😂😂

Brunson is a flopper. Plus he just runs right into defensive players.

When Brunson was out, the other Knicks shared the ball and scoring was divided by everyone, and defensively they were better. These are facts.

Brunson needs to be creative and get the guys involved. The offense is very predictable. They play better when everyone is passing and touching the ball

How tall is Brunson actually? Google lists him at 6’2”. They are talking about him like he’s Spud Webb.
Brunson is a wonderful player, but we’ve seen greater accomplishments from smaller players (Isiah Thomas, Allen Iverson, etc. Hell, John Stockton was 6’1”.).

If the refs give Brunson 20+ ft’s flopping next game after complaining…
@andylee1651

Yes cade was getting a good whistle on LEGIT DRIVES. The difference with Brunson is he is flopping around anytime he is beat to his spot bringing the ball up and pump faking then launching into 3s he has no intention of trying to make, just looking for a call. Cade hoops regardless of the whistle he is getting, Brunson is a great player but spends way too much time foul baiting, it’s pathetic.

They ain’t win a postseason game since 2008 so they was handed one that’s all it fits the NBA narrative makes a better story but them bums ain’t winning 💩 the barely won and they was playing 7 on 5 all night thank the refs the called a clear path foul on a alley really first time in NBA history and only going to the line twice a whole half in the playoffs 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You do know that clear path foul helped the Knicks right kid? They literally took away 2pts from the Pistons, you need to be thanking the officials
