00:00the gang what a backdrop new york city on a friday night and madison square garden lit up
00:09orange and blue jalen brunson and the new york knicks trying to top what they did a season ago
00:17taking on jalen brown with even more responsibility this season and the boston celtics they have to
00:25play faster they have to apply more pressure defensively the celtics control the tip were
00:31underway jalen brown matched up with ananobi ananobi had a huge game against the cavaliers
00:37pritchard has not shot it well pre-season into the regular season opener hauser he could really
00:43shoot it and does it's a three kata played well in the season opener throw it to him kata gets inside
00:49and he puts it in plus one it was bridges the last line of defense this was a half court team at both
00:56ends of the floor last year played one of the slowest paces in the league mcbride gives it up
01:02towns bottom a three bridges up the floor early offense for brunson likes the matchup with hauser
01:09penetrates and scores well if you let brunson get to his left hand he's going to be great you've got
01:17to keep him going to his right brown hard drive and the lefty finish plus one nicks had the fifth
01:24slowest pace in the nba last season white cutter and it's kata who slams it down
01:31feed it out high towns return ananobi pivots kicks towns okay i like that because towns made the great
01:43pass and he bounces up right to mcbride break opportunity nixon transition towns no hesitation
01:52got a three and the foul wow
01:55wow
01:55runson with a hero and kick extra shaman read all about it a three that's how mike brown wants to
02:06play offensively towns defending tilman and ananobi gets locked up brown gets hit and hits a three
02:16a chance for four jalen brown
02:20brunson one-on-one over simons it's good brunson's as goody in the paint with footwork making those
02:31shots in there as any small guard i've ever seen 27 22 simons connects for three great dish
02:41kolok has emerged as the backup point guard
02:46brunson's splash on a three
02:50mitchell robinson not available once again for the next high arcing three and hauser with string music
02:57certainly and i think that's one of the reasons the knicks have struggled at times offensively
03:03the jumper by white is pure the second foul on derrick white
03:08kolok takes the opening flips it up and in
03:13oh it's great going up
03:14hugo's father paco played professional ball as did his mom
03:18moncarrant
03:20yabuzeli with a downtown hit
03:24hauser over clarkson short rebounded by brunson bounce it ahead clarkson got it
03:33boston is two of 13 from the field in the second quarter they shot 55 percent in the first
03:41brunson the dribble drive contorts his body and finishes plus the foul
03:46so they were had to navigate that a little bit anyway but when tatum went down
03:52they knew as sam hauser knocks down another three the selfix and brad stevens knew
03:5925 to 8 extended run turnover boston towns looking ahead for hart
04:06leave it towns hard drive
04:09layup good and a foul
04:13wow brunson
04:15head and shoulder fake step back jay
04:19towns couldn't grab it hart does
04:21nicks reload and a noby money
04:24another
04:25second chance opportunity
04:27way to end that second quarter
04:2918-0 and fast break points mike brown wants this pace and he you guys are showing it uh can you describe just what got into you guys to end that quarter
04:36then that quarter pace and i'm bending over like i'm tired but let me stop that uh we did a great job first half is a good job
04:42but uh
04:43we had this kind of league we had this kind of deficit in the playoffs and we lost and we won the game so we can't expect nothing less than a
04:49really good team one of the best in nba we got to bring our a game in the second half
04:53it's okay if you you bend over because you know you you filled up the box score
04:57everyone on amazon prime see that
04:58there we go i like the shout out but what needs to be the focus heading into this locker room to come out with the same energy
05:03i mean just the same focus i mean defensively we did a great job
05:07we started the first quarter we were a little lackadaisical
05:09on defense we stepped it up in the second quarter
05:11that's how we got this lead it wasn't the offense it was the defense
05:14certainly was thanks for your time cat
05:1514 on the shot clock get it in for brown
05:18he has not
05:19had the impact scoring wise that the celtics need from him
05:23eight points hauser catching fire

05:26katus screen for white switch
05:30hauser oh that's logo land
