00:00and the Lakers beating the Knicks 113 to 109 in overtime once again these two
00:07guys getting it done 32 12 and 7 for Luka 31 12 and 8 for LeBron it was Luka
00:14though Scotty when they got to the overtime who took things over early on
00:18TNT
00:21Towns it's trying to shake a towel stay with him
00:27it's a little magic right there towns was right with him now it's an adobe on
00:36Dodgers the switch again dodged it's over
00:44Luka dodged it pours in a 27-footer and the Lakers are up five you know Mike
00:55when he first went there he didn't you know he was cold he didn't have a shot
01:00and I think he was trying to find it in that building it with the dimensions and
01:06everything and the sight lines and you know it now he's found it and remember
01:11he's got the size and the meat he's got meat on his bones so he gets his space
01:17and we've talked about space on this show a million times when it comes to
01:22getting shots off you either have space or you have space and size where you're
01:28talking about a Durant who's got the seven foot when he jumps he's 10 foot in
01:33the air and he's letting it fly with the cocked hand back there's no one in
01:39the league that can block him I've never seen actually the guy get blocked in his
01:43entire career really for that matter and then I think with Luka he gets that that
01:50step back and meet space he can bang with you he can hold you off him with
01:56almost like a hockey draw handle where he keeps the ball back here and he just
02:00uses his meat no one can get around him he's so puffy and strong and big his size
02:07what is he six seven I mean the guy he gets his space and now he's found that
02:13shot and forget about it he's starting to have these 30 point games again 32
02:18points 30 points 29 points he's in that realm now where he's found his groove and
02:24it's only going to get worse for teams it certainly is JJ Redick let's hear from
02:29him of course the Lakers were down most of the night they needed a little
02:32fourth-quarter rally to get that game to overtime JJ Redick very proud once we
02:38reached their level of effort and and how hard they were playing we were right
02:49there and we all felt that in the second half and again it goes back to the poise
02:53thing you make a run you get it to eight they go back up to ten or eleven they
02:59you make a run you get it to seven it goes back up our guys just stayed the
03:04course and refused to give in and let go of the rope you know it seemed like
03:10Brunson had an answer for everything and he was he was fantastic tonight and our
03:17guys in what felt like a playoff game at times really just got it out a win so
03:24Brunson hurt his ankle obviously you'll mention that I think that was the end of
03:30him he left in the overtime with the ankle this is not a surprise to any of
03:36us we live in New York we watch the Knicks every night and they they can
03:42hang with anyone they can play with anyone they can score with anyone they
03:46got star players that can fill it up and the one thing that they haven't figured
03:51out how to do is win games against good teams again last night they should have
03:58won shoulda coulda woulda they had the game right and they let it slip through
04:04their fingers again this has happened not multiple times it's happened every
04:10time I mean it's like every time Mike they play a good game they lose it's
04:17unbelievable to me and that's where I'm you know increasingly frustrated watching
04:23them and thinking that they can't do anything in the postseason when you
04:28can't be good teams like how many good teams you have to lose to before you
04:31finally realize they can't be good teams I mean like what 10 12 15 how many games
04:37against good teams do they have to lose and trust me I said it yesterday I'll say
04:42it again they beat Memphis when Memphis has been dying on the vine they've been
04:48losing every game they play and they lost Jackson and they've been playing
04:52terrible and they've been getting whacked and and the Knicks beat them by
04:56one in Memphis well everybody else is beating them by way more than one so
05:00they're not a good team right now I said that yesterday don't buy that fourth
05:04seed they don't look good at all and their coach is crying to the refs I mean
05:10the whole game they gotta like put him on a leash like a dog he's attacking
05:14refs and running up and down the sideline it takes the whole staff to get
05:18him back to his seat
