00:30The Blazers check in at 23-25 of the season.
00:33Ninth best in the West, the New York Knicks.
00:36They are number two right now in the East at 29-18 for the season.
00:41Always a great, great experience to be here in the world's most famous arena, Madison Square Garden,
00:47which was opened up the latest iteration, the fourth iteration of Madison Square in 1968.
00:51That's where Denny Ogbier will go to work tonight for the Portland Trail Blazers,
00:55averaging nearly 28 points per ball game in the month of January.
01:00The Blazers have been very successful in the month.
01:02Seven rebounds, six assists.
01:03Now he has been out five of the last eight games, still kicking off the rust.
01:07Tonight against the Knicks, a great opportunity as they take on Jalen Brunson.
01:11This ball club really operates offensively extraordinarily well with Brunson on the floor.
01:16They are third best right now in the NBA.
01:18In terms of offensive rating, he's averaging nearly 28 a game, six assists a game as well.
01:25Welcome in, everybody.
01:26Kevin Calabro, Evan Turner, along with Brooke Olsendam.
01:29Tom Haberstroh will be along as well here at Madison Square Garden.
01:34It's been a great delight to do so many games over the years here and see a number of events.
01:38But what's it like to play in this arena, Evan?
01:40It's unbelievable.
01:41It's one of my favorite experiences on a basketball court.
01:43It's almost like being at a Broadway show.
01:46You're on a big stage, the lights are brighter, and when you look over and you see Spike Lee,
01:51you see Tracy Morgan, you're like, oh, this is a real thing.
01:54Now this is the night you scored a career-high 34 points here at the Garden
01:58with Carmelo Anthony teeing up on you and a real nice New York Steve and Carter Williams
02:04and the rest of the crew.
02:06I was so beautiful, so beautiful, man, and I lost all my years, man.
02:12What about our four keys to the game?
02:13What's it going to take today?
02:14I think it's going to have to take a little bit of excitement, a little bit of greatness
02:17from everybody.
02:18Last time we won a game at Madison Square Garden, Jeremy Grant put up 44 points.
02:23He lived in the pink, lived in the free throw line, and he went home with a W.
02:26We need that type of energy.
02:27And then also, too, we've got to come out with that energy to match the tone of a guy like
02:31Mikel Bridges, who for some reason lost to see a trailblazer uniform.
02:35He's averaging 28 points per game versus Blazers.
02:38You have to match his intensity and cut out his corner threes.
02:41The New York Knicks are leading the NBA in corner three-point shooting, and that's why they're
02:45successful.
02:45And Bridges has buried some big shots against the Blazers, whether it be as a Sun or a New
02:50York Knick.
02:51You can see what he has averaged against the Blazers.
02:5328.4, the highest point per game average against opponents since the 23-24 season.
03:00Jeremy Grant, how important will he be tonight for the Portland Trailblazers?
03:05He scored 44 here back in 2022, was 21-27 from the foul line.
03:12There was such a discrepancy, I kid now, that the Knicks petitioned the NBA.
03:16Too many free throws for Jeremy Grant, so good at getting to the rim.
03:20We're out with it.
03:20Out of a heart, you're still out of beauty.
03:23Grant backs down, whirls, straightens, fires and hits.
03:26Long strides in.
03:27Up and in.
03:28Beautiful move.
03:28Yep.
03:29Grant had a notion.
03:30Now he'll fling the three and he got it all.
03:33Oh, baby.
03:34Grant, strong left hand slithers in.
03:37And sneaks one up and in between defenders.
03:39We've seen him do it.
03:40He's hit another big shot.
03:44Tonight's Fred Meyer most rewarding performance is Jeremy Grant, who scored 44 points here at
03:49MSG on November 25, 2022.
03:52The most ever by a Blazer all time.
03:54And JG is here with me now.
03:55Do you remember that performance?
03:58Definitely.
03:58Definitely.
03:59Whenever you play in the garden, it's something to remember.
04:03So, yeah, I definitely remember that game.
04:05What sticks out to you?
04:07Just playing in the bright lights.
04:09It's definitely the mecca of basketball.
04:12You know, when you think about basketball, especially in this country, it's playing in the
04:16Massachusetts Grand Prix.
04:18Many guys over the years have told me that this is one of their favorite places to play.
04:21You mentioned the bright lights, but what is this experience like?
04:23How would you describe it?
04:25I mean, I love it.
04:26I'm from D.C., so it's not too far.
04:30Kind of reminds me of home a little bit.
04:32So, yeah, just being able to play in front of the fans.
04:35You know, they got some really tough fans.
04:37So, to put on the show is exciting.
04:40And you look like you've been very aggressive lately.
04:42Of course, getting fouled is a skill of yours.
04:44What's been your mindset as of late?
04:47Yeah, I think it's just that.
04:48Just being aggressive on both ends of the court.
04:51Trying to get to the free throw line.
04:53Trying to get a rhythm back, right?
04:55When you're playing, you know, a certain amount of minutes and things like that, you've got to find a rhythm.
04:59So, just trying to get there.
05:00All right, before we head home, how will you get a win tonight over the Knicks?
05:05We've got to be aggressive.
05:06We've got to slow down their stars and Brunson and Cat and try to contain the ball.
05:13And then the offense just move the ball.
05:14Let's go do it.
05:15Thank you.
05:16Appreciate you.
05:17As always, J.G. and the Blazers looking to end this road trip on a high note at the world's most famous arena.
05:22Kevin Calabro and Evan Turner with the lineups and tip next.
05:31Welcome, everybody, to Midtown Manhattan.
05:34Madison Square Garden, site of the Blazers and Knicks renewal.
05:38Two teams got together back on January the 11th with the Knicks winning in Portland, Oregon.
05:44Let's meet the starting lineups tonight as we are about to get underway.
05:48The Blazers, of course, check in number nine right now in the West.
05:53And on the road, a 10-14 ball club, 5-11 against Eastern Conference opponents.
05:58They have lost three straight.
06:00Drew Holliday, Shaden Sharp, Denny Obdia, along with Tomani Kamara and Donovan Klingon for the Blazers.
06:07The Knicks have won four straight since losing four in a row.
06:12Winning against Brooklyn and Philly, Sacramento and at Toronto, Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, Mikkel Bridges, along with O.G. Ananobi and Carl Anthony Towns in the lineup tonight for New York.
06:22Tonight's starting lineups brought to you by Toyota.
06:25Visit Toyota.com or your local Toyota dealer today.
06:28Toyota, let's go places.
06:31Mike Brown is the new coach of the New York Knicks.
06:34The Knicks won 51 a year ago.
06:36Lost in the conference finals in six to the Indiana Pacers.
06:39A change was needed, they said, here in New York.
06:41So Tom Thibodeau was fired.
06:43Mike Brown brought on board a veteran.
06:45A couple of stops along the way in the NBA and a very successful young coach at the age of 55.
06:51That is young to meet.
06:52Iago Splitter, the acting head man of the Blazers, actually played his last game as a pro here at Madison Square Garden
07:00when he was playing for the Philadelphia 76ers in the 16-17 season.
07:04He played eight games that year and his last was here.
07:06He said he remembered it because he was playing on one good hip, scored 11 points, and hit a three-point shot.
07:14Donovan Clingin has had some great success here in New York as well during his career at UConn.
07:20Clingin coming in off of a 20-rebound performance against Washington.
07:25He had 13 offensive rebounds, which is a franchise record, averaging at a double-double per ballgame.
07:32In the assignment tonight is Carl Anthony Towns, who ranks number one in the league in rebounding at nearly 12 a game.
07:38I'm very excited to see this matchup.
07:40After how hard Donovan was competing versus Sarr, I believe that he's showing up with his lunch pail.
07:45I believe he's going to step up and accept this matchup, and it's going to be so great for his development.
07:50Going up against one of the top, most agile bigsmen league that's celebrated.
07:56Evan Turner, this Knicks offense rated number three in the league, and Jalen Brunson orchestrates.
08:02When he is off the floor, they are demonstrably not the offensive team that they are right now.
08:06You know, that's what happens when you're ahead of the snake.
08:08I think he continues to develop to be not only a good basketball player, but now he's starting to make the right play every single time.
08:16And his teammate relies on him so much, and we have to stop the head of the snake, and I want to see how they guard him and see what occurs.
08:23Well, Clingin gets caught on a closeout here on Josh Hart, knocks him down, and the first foul on Clingin just underway here at Madison Square Garden.
08:31Hard average at 12 points, nearly eight rebounds a game.
08:39Played for the Blazers, of course, in parts of two seasons, 64 games in total before coming off here to New York.
08:45Perfect complementary player for this Knicks ball club that really has struggled defensively.
08:51And when you think about it, 14th in the league in rating defensively, but with a couple of guys who are all defense in Ananobi and in Bridges.
09:00And Hart, obviously, a very good defender as well.
09:03Well, they know if they have championship aspirations, you've got to mix in that top offensive pace along with the top ten defense.
09:09And defense wins championships no matter what, especially when you're trying to face that Western Conference, as we know.
09:15Bridges matches up with Sharp.
09:17Holiday comes off the screen, kicks to Tomani Kamara, elevating for three.
09:22Longboard grabbed by Hart, and here is Brunson out of backcourt with it.
09:25Blasers match up as they backpedal.
09:29Towns trailing for three, coming off and into the hands of Tomani Kamara.
09:36Tomani terminates the dribble, fakes the dribble handoff, spots Adi on a nice cut, double pump into the lane.
09:42Got roughed up, knocked down.
09:44Blasers reconstitute with possession, nine to shoot.
09:47Sharp the step back three, tough shot with Hart closing out.
09:50Rebound, grabbed by Carl Anthony Towns.
09:54And this is a matchup I like.
09:55I think it's Kamara and Drew going to have to take it on themselves to be able to guard the top two players, which is Brunson and Cat.
10:02OG Ananobi leans in and knocks down a tough shot.
10:09Ananobi gets 16 a game.
10:12Holiday up in the frontcourt gets in deep on the early postup.
10:15Double-team, draws contact, throws outside of Clingon, straightaway looking three.
10:19Flat shot comes off into the hands of Carl Anthony Towns.
10:22You got some good shots early, good pace.
10:24He's got to step up and make the shot.
10:25Don't find the rhythm, make the rhythm.
10:28Hart trying to deliver the goods to Brunson.
10:30Tomani Kamara trying to intercede, and Tomani gets caught.
10:33Four fouls, he topples into Hart and sends him to the deck.
10:37That's a tough call, tough call in any situation.
10:47Runs it on the trigger, we'll get it back out of the corner.
10:50Pumps a three, won't go.
10:52Knicks a very good team shooting from the corner from three.
10:55Here's Sharp.
10:57Again, checked by Bridges, he contains the dribble.
11:01Denny Anvia in on Ananobi, one-time all-defensive.
11:05Missed the shot, rebound, Clingit.
11:07Outside is Sharp, pump fakes, sweeps it across, drives it inside,
11:11goes lefty over traffic and laid it in, and draws the foul.
11:15And that's the intensity they need.
11:16We got to touch the paint and keep getting to the foul line.
11:19Set the tone.
11:21Shaden Sharp, man, I want to see if he's still hot from last game.
11:32Clingit leading the league in total offensive rebounds,
11:35and second-chance points for the Blazers, also a big key tonight.
11:40Yeah, every game, second-chance points, every single game.
11:44Sharp missing on the free throw.
11:45The Knicks come the other way.
11:46Mark in the corner, draws Clingit outside, spread floor,
11:59and he's able to drive it right to the cup and lay it in.
12:01Well, you know, the Knicks are known for shooting corner threes,
12:04the number one in the league in corner three.
12:05So when you close out, you've got to be there on time
12:08and chop your feet so you don't get the blow-bys.
12:11Advia moves well without the ball, drives and kicks to Kamara.
12:14The three is off, and the rebound grabbed by the Knicks.
12:17Hard push into frontcourt's Bridges.
12:19Hard up top.
12:21Towns had an ocean.
12:22Hart spots a seam, drives it inside, left it short over Sharp.
12:25Drew Holliday, motors up in the frontcourt, 17-year pro out of UCLA.
12:38Shaden with 11 to shoot, step back three is off,
12:40and the rebound to Carl Anthony Towns.
12:45Blazers getting opportunities, brunt in the transition, dribble drive.
12:50Howard comes to Adanova, knocks down the three.
12:52You can see the dilemma that the Blazer defenders have.
12:55They're being spread out because of the great ability of the Knicks to shoot the three.
12:59Yeah, absolutely, and we just got to make sure we wall up and defend the paint
13:03because any time you get into the paint, they want to spray it out,
13:06get the corner threes, and that's what they're doing.
13:08It's just lulling you to sleep and getting a shot that you really want.
13:10That's how smart Jalen Brunson is.
13:13Danny Advey on the drive, had it ripped out of his hands
13:15and last touched by the Blazers.
13:18Brunson will bring it in bounds and alert Hart.
13:21Safety releases in midcourt, steps into a deep J
13:24that comes off long and into the hands of Sharp.
13:26And that's how Donovan has to guard him.
13:28If Josh Hart is going to beat us making threes, so be it.
13:31But we can't get B in off the dribble,
13:32especially when our defense is so spread out.
13:35Holiday in the lane, swatted away from behind by Towns,
13:39recovered by Clingit, tried to send it back to the top,
13:41hit the bottom of the glass and out of bounds.
13:43Four minutes got by here in this first quarter play.
13:48Blazers trying to get sorted out.
13:50They're off to a 1 of 10 shooting start.
13:520 5 for 3.
13:54The Knicks 3 of 7, 43 percent.
13:57They had a horrible start, of course,
13:58to begin this trip on Monday against Boston.
14:01The first quarter was something that we won't even talk about.
14:04Yeah, now, of course.
14:05Now, I think the only positive thing, even then,
14:07tonight, we've got to get shots.
14:09We just haven't made them.
14:11I can see we, versus Boston,
14:12we were kind of spread out so much.
14:14We're playing isolation basketball.
14:16Just a couple shots haven't fallen.
14:17We just have to keep stepping up and making shots.
14:19Take great shots and making great shots.
14:21Bridges shot us off.
14:22Towns the recovery note.
14:24Rob Williams, the third, in for Clingit,
14:26grabs the rebound.
14:28Holiday up in the front court.
14:31Find Sharp, sets his feet, pops a three and scores.
14:34Exactly, just like that.
14:35Paint touches and spread the ball out.
14:37Sharp had 31 in the loss on Tuesday to Washington.
14:42He was 5 of 9 from three-point range.
14:44Had a terrific game, as you mentioned.
14:47Yeah, when he gets going, man,
14:48he just looks so beautiful and so effortless.
14:50He has to just find his rhythm of night
14:52because no matter what,
14:53it's going to take a whole team to show up
14:54and beat these Knicks.
14:56Bicks shoot nearly 38% from three-point range,
14:58which puts him in the top three in the league in percentage.
15:02They throw it away here,
15:03and the Blazers will have possession.
15:05Yeah, it's hard to beat a team.
15:06They're shooting almost 40% per night.
15:11Holiday approaches the three-point arc.
15:13That's a fair space, triggers and misses.
15:18Into the lane is hard.
15:20Laid it up and in on a power drive.
15:25Holiday bouncing to Sharp.
15:27Long strides into the paint.
15:28Outside it comes to Jeremy Grant,
15:30and he swishes a three from the corner.
15:32Man, when you make the threes over twos,
15:35it's going to keep you in the game.
15:36I know we're not shooting well,
15:38but as long as both teams are shooting well,
15:40that's what we want in today.
15:44Sharp up top, plays over the top of the screen.
15:47Towns will take it.
15:48On the matchup, Holiday has Towns.
15:53Ananobi hunting.
15:54Holiday, ball deflected.
15:55Rob Williams III, a nice play.
15:58Holiday quickly dispatches it here to Sharp.
16:01Grant is trailing.
16:02He's got to look at another trip.
16:03Comes off long.
16:04Brunson with it.
16:04Ananobi on the right.
16:05Towns on the left.
16:06Ananobi has a step into the lane.
16:08He'll challenge Tamati Kamara.
16:10Coming over and flying in was Grant,
16:11but recovered and popped right back up and in on the follow.
16:18Dicks on top here by four.
16:24Grant sweeps it right to left,
16:26goes and brunts it.
16:27Nice handoff inside.
16:28Williams scores.
16:29Good pass.
16:30Good pass.
16:31Like I said,
16:31I love when Grant goes north to south,
16:33because no matter what,
16:34he's a big athletic body
16:35that's going to draw attention.
16:36And when he does,
16:37he's good enough to pass the ball around
16:38and get paint shots.
16:41Art tries to jam a pass in there.
16:42Williams quick hands.
16:43He deflects it out of bounds.
16:48Timeout on the deck.
16:495.39 to go in the first quarter.
16:50Jeremy Grant.
16:52Something about Madison Square Garden.
16:54He said he loves being close to home.
16:56He loves playing on a big stage,
16:58and that's obvious.
16:58Art has five so far.
17:02First three, I'm sorry.
17:05Lead the trailblazers 12 to 10
17:07with 5.39 to go in the first.
17:09Well, Donovan Klingin
17:10is having a fantastic season,
17:12averaging a double-double
17:13and one of the best rebounders
17:15in the league.
17:16Here's Tiago Splitter
17:17on D.C. Year 2.
17:20Well, he's learning, you know,
17:22as we watch him this season.
17:24He's getting better at practice
17:26with his routines.
17:27He's getting better in the game,
17:28preparing the game better,
17:29listening, you know,
17:31just staying focused
17:32for longer in the court.
17:34So, you know,
17:35very young guy
17:36that is adapting
17:37and getting better.
17:41And guys,
17:42I spoke with a D.C.
17:43at practice
17:43at the other day,
17:44actually on this road trip,
17:45and I asked him
17:45what's been key to his success.
17:47He said always being
17:47in the right spot.
17:49And he also added
17:49that when he gets the ball
17:50and rebounds,
17:51he's keeping it up high
17:52or something
17:52maybe he didn't do as much
17:54as he should have last season.
17:56Yeah, I mean,
17:56it's something that
17:57all young centers are taught,
17:59and you've got to
18:00continually remind yourself of that.
18:02Yeah, 1,000%,
18:03but it'll be all good.
18:04He's doing a pretty good job
18:06in the offensive rebounds
18:07and also putting it back.
18:08So, you know,
18:09he's not where we want
18:11to be right now,
18:11but he's still very, very good.
18:13He's still very, very active.
18:14And as long as the effort
18:15is there,
18:16he can teach the rest.
18:17So,
18:17clinging three rebounds early.
18:19Rob Williams,
18:19the third, though,
18:20at the last timeout
18:21was summoned off the bench
18:22along with Jeremy Grant.
18:24To be honest with you,
18:25I kind of liked our last lineup
18:26because it was a five-man defender lineup
18:29and they could switch everything,
18:31and I think that kind of disrupted
18:32the Knicks for a little bit.
18:35Brunson drills the three,
18:36shoots 38% from three,
18:38and a volume shooter,
18:39nearly eight attempts a game.
18:41Caleb Love in the lineup now
18:42for the Blazers.
18:43Terminates the dribble off
18:44to Grant to the baseline.
18:46Shot off by Mitchell Robinson.
18:48He is in now for the Knicks.
18:50Sharp.
18:51Checked by Diora.
18:52Now, Chabot swings in here
18:54to Grant.
18:55Overthrows and out of bounds.
18:56Somebody's got a souvenir,
18:57I think.
18:58And went deep.
18:59Yeah, leave with it.
19:00Run with it.
19:01Leave with it.
19:01Run with it.
19:05We'll have a Diora.
19:066'9 rookie from France
19:08in the lineup,
19:09as we mentioned.
19:10Landry Chabot out there as well.
19:12Eight-year pro at 6'5".
19:14Robinson the screen
19:16for Brunson.
19:16Downhill into the paint.
19:17Gets separation from Kamara
19:19and lays it in.
19:23Brunson averaging
19:24just shy of 28 a game.
19:29Grant redirects
19:31off a Williams screen.
19:32Double team threw it away.
19:33Trying to go across the zone.
19:34Intercepted by Brunson
19:35to Diora.
19:36Jump pass.
19:37Shammott from the corner.
19:38A three really flat.
19:40Rolls off into the hands of love.
19:42Love sees two defenders.
19:47Kamara comes over to get a hit
19:48literally on fronts
19:49and knocks him down
19:50and a foul on Tumani.
19:56Hold on.
20:00Was not on Tumani Kamara.
20:02They're going to call this foul.
20:03Are they calling this
20:04on Diora from behind?
20:08I'm not too sure.
20:09We can't.
20:10Yes, they are.
20:11We can't have Kamara
20:11with his second foul.
20:12He definitely needs to be out there
20:13guarding Brunson.
20:14Just one foul on Tumani.
20:16That is not against Tumani Kamara.
20:18Here's a chest pass
20:19intercepted by Hart.
20:20Up the floor
20:21into the lane
20:21with a glass.
20:22Laid it up and in.
20:24Josh Hart
20:25outstanding defender.
20:27And that's one of our keys
20:28to the game as well.
20:29We need to limit turnovers.
20:30We can't get line ball turnovers
20:32and right now
20:32guys are struggling
20:34and that's what's making.
20:35It's Tom Haverstor
20:37here with tonight's
20:38Haverstat
20:38and it is 38.
20:40That's the number
20:40of three-pointers
20:41that Caleb Love
20:42has made
20:43in this month of January
20:44which is four away
20:46from tying the Blazers
20:48record
20:48for most three-pointers
20:49made by a rookie
20:50in any single month.
20:52He's trailing none other
20:53than Damian Lillard
20:54who set the mark
20:55at 42 three-pointers
20:57made
20:57in March of 2013.
21:00So we have an opportunity
21:01tonight
21:01at Madison Square Garden
21:02to see history.
21:04Caleb Love
21:04an opportunity
21:06if he hits four threes
21:07will tie his teammates record
21:08and what a story
21:10for the undrafted rookie.
21:11Let's take a look here
21:12what he did
21:13to Bronny James
21:15LeBron James' son
21:16on the floor
21:16trying to guard Caleb Love
21:17and he just hits this
21:19hits the brakes here
21:21with two feet
21:22of defender distance
21:22and he earns eight feet
21:24on this space creation move
21:26and he hits the three-pointer
21:28falling back
21:29with the contact
21:30Caleb Love
21:31four three-pointers
21:33made
21:33Can he do it tonight?
21:34We'll see.
21:36Tonight's Haberstatt
21:36is presented by
21:37First Tech Federal Credit Union
21:39who invites you
21:39to explore the many
21:40exclusive perks
21:41and experiences
21:42of First Tech Beyond.
21:43Back to you guys.
21:45So I'm rooting highly
21:46for Caleb Love
21:47to break that record
21:48but I want to give
21:49a little credit
21:49to the honorable
21:50Damian Lillard.
21:52When he did that
21:52during his 2012-2013 season
21:55I think the league average
21:57for threes
21:57is around 20 a game.
21:59Nowadays
21:59it's around 40 to 50.
22:02So like if we were
22:03to like adjust
22:04that a little bit
22:05and Dane was playing
22:06in this day
22:06I believe he probably
22:08would have 50 or 60 threes
22:09in a month
22:10because back then
22:1148 threes in a month
22:12was something only a veteran
22:13was doing.
22:14Wow.
22:14And that's how elite Dane
22:15was as a 22-year-old rookie.
22:18So Caleb's in great
22:21great company
22:21but man Dane
22:23before his time
22:26that was 2012
22:27the one jump shooting
22:28three-point shooters.
22:30Extraordinary numbers.
22:32Yeah.
22:33This all hail
22:34to honorable Danie Lillard.
22:35That's it.
22:37All right.
22:37Now we got to get
22:37to score.
22:38We got to get the guard
22:39in it.
22:40I'm sure he's
22:41sitting up right now
22:42being like
22:42hey man
22:43tell him
22:43tell him the guard
22:44easy.
22:45Tiawara
22:46banks in a three.
22:48Adria to the end
22:48line
22:49trying to get it going.
22:50Power move inside
22:51on a reverse.
22:52Nice touch.
22:54And then he's one of those
22:55guys
22:55once he finds this game
22:56this whole game changes
22:57because he's truly that
22:58dominant.
22:59So he just has to get
22:59his game going
23:00find his rhythm
23:01and lead his team.
23:04Brunson
23:04gets some space.
23:07He's such a strong
23:086-2 body
23:10and he finds contact
23:12seeks contact
23:13and plays off of that
23:14doesn't he so well.
23:15And he can find
23:15an angle to score on.
23:17Great.
23:17Lava
23:17up top
23:18on B.A.
23:19to cling
23:19it sways back
23:20and hammers it down.
23:22Yep.
23:25Last game
23:26first quarter
23:26didn't struggle
23:27a little bit
23:28with taking care
23:28of the ball
23:29now he just
23:29has to get
23:30downhill
23:30he find his teammates
23:31and drawing attention
23:32he knows what to do
23:33from there
23:34you've just seen that.
23:3513 to shoot
23:36for the Knicks.
23:39Robinson up top
23:41Brunson
23:41tried to shake
23:42Tomani Kamara
23:43Brunson
23:44comes off the screen
23:45fake
23:45drive
23:46contact
23:47a foul
23:48take a look at the
23:57McDonald's
23:57big delivery replay
23:59Denny obvious
23:59scoring his first
24:00bucket of the night
24:01but my
24:01and then right here
24:04touching the paint
24:05drawing to
24:06no look past
24:07the big man
24:08shitty shitty
24:10bang bang
24:10boom
24:11Brunson
24:13two time
24:14all NBA
24:15second round
24:17pick of Dallas
24:1833rd pick
24:19in the draft
24:20in 2018
24:20four years
24:21at Dallas
24:22his fourth campaign
24:23here
24:23with the New York Knicks
24:25with that pump fake
24:27lean in
24:28falling away
24:29drawing contact
24:30he
24:31gets to the free throw
24:32line where he's
24:33at 85 percenter
24:34the foul
24:36on Tomani Kamara
24:37is his second
24:39Evan
24:39it's so crazy
24:40that Brunson
24:41was a second round pick
24:42when you go through
24:42his college career
24:43he's arguably
24:44one of the best
24:45college players ever
24:46and I think
24:46during his last
24:47couple years
24:47he's almost 90
24:4850 40
24:49with no turnovers
24:50he's either good
24:51or great
24:51that's how he played
24:52never bad
24:53it was always
24:54kind of mystifying
24:55to me that he got
24:56out of Dallas
24:56which was crazy
24:58I guess
24:58sometimes you can
24:59be too smart
25:00and overthink it
25:01but I think
25:02he kind of set
25:02the trend for it
25:03on the trade
25:04one and then
25:05trade Luca
25:05I guess they don't
25:07like good players
25:07there we go
25:12Caleb Love
25:13three point
25:14three away from
25:15tying the honorable
25:16and Damian Lillard
25:18they do like
25:20Cooper Flacco
25:20in their defense
25:21it's quite a shootout
25:23last night
25:23against his old
25:24teammate
25:24Conconniple
25:25Charlotte
25:25yeah but it seems
25:27like it's one or the
25:27others
25:28I know
25:28we can't have a team
25:29full of stars
25:30I don't know
25:32a nice little drive
25:33on a half foot
25:34back come the Blazers
25:36Caleb Love
25:36with that triple
25:37played very well
25:39against the Knicks
25:39the last time
25:40the two clubs
25:40got together
25:41on the 11th of January
25:42Advia tried to guide
25:44up a three
25:44and comes off
25:45into the hands
25:45of Mitchell Robinson
25:46Brunson checked
25:51by the 6-7
25:51City
25:52Sissoko
25:52a step back
25:53three
25:54got it
25:54Sissoko
25:55got under him
25:55contact
25:56made out of foul
25:57on the closeout
25:58so Brunson's
26:00got an opportunity
26:01here at a four-point
26:02play
26:02Brunson fell
26:04awkwardly
26:04but appears to be
26:05okay
26:05when you have a guard
26:07that has so many
26:07herky-jerky moments
26:08you have to be
26:09the second jumper
26:10and you got to
26:11give him space
26:11to land
26:12you see right now
26:13Jalen Brunson
26:14is going downhill
26:15he's clicking
26:16on all cylinders
26:17and he's got the
26:18defense right where
26:19he wants them
26:19you got to be
26:20disciplined
26:20not pick them up
26:21too far
26:22and literally
26:23stick to your
26:23principles
26:24but never
26:25foul a jump
26:25shooter
26:26never foul
26:26a great shooter
26:27Pat O'Connell
26:29Justin Van Dyne
26:30and Kevin Scott
26:31taking a look
26:33at this play
26:33reviewing this
26:34see if they need
26:35to upgrade
26:35to a flagrant
26:36take a look
26:37at the placement
26:38of Sissoko's
26:39feet
26:40as Brunson
26:41went into the air
26:43did he give him
26:45room to land
26:46I think he gave him
26:47room to land
26:48I hate when he
26:48checked this
26:49because it's like
26:49man you want
26:50a flagrant
26:51is a flagrant
26:52like it sounds
26:53like what it
26:53sounds like
26:54you know what
26:54I mean
26:54not a guy
26:55get him up
26:56walking up
26:56shaking his dad's
26:58hand
26:58and be like
26:58yo y'all seen
26:59that three
26:59like what are we
27:01doing
27:01basking in the glory
27:02let's get back
27:03out here
27:03forward with an
27:04extended leg
27:05makes direct
27:06foot-to-foot
27:06contact with the
27:07shooter who rolls
27:08his ankle
27:08with a high
27:08potential injury
27:09therefore this
27:10is a flagrant
27:10foul
27:10unnecessary
27:11Brunson will
27:12have two shots
27:13to make one
27:14and New York
27:14winbound at the
27:15free throw line
27:16extended with 24
27:16on the shot clock
27:17you guys got to
27:18forgive me
27:18I'm from the
27:19old school
27:19so you know
27:20what I mean
27:20catching me up
27:21to modern times
27:22I didn't
27:23I didn't know
27:23what I was
27:24that's crazy
27:24well a high degree
27:26potential injury
27:28he rolled his ankle
27:29says Kevin Scott
27:30and so the upgrade
27:31to the flagrant
27:32I think Jalen
27:33might have kicked
27:34his foot out
27:34actually
27:35wow
27:38so Brunson already
27:41with a three
27:41through the net
27:42will shoot the
27:44technical shot
27:45technical foul
27:46shot here
27:46and they'll
27:49align themselves
27:50actually the shot
27:51won't count
27:52they'll bring it
27:52inbounds
27:53and Brunson
27:55with 1.30
27:56left here
27:57in this first
27:57quarter

29:51for the shot
29:52attempt
29:52there goes
29:56Jalen Brunson
29:56like I said
29:57when you're playing
29:58versus a guy
29:58with so much jerk
29:59you got to make sure
30:00you use your lane
30:00stay back
30:01and force him
30:02to take a contested shot
30:03and then right here
30:05we need a lot more
30:06Denny
30:06Denny downhill

30:08Denny finding
30:09open shooters
30:10Denny ball

30:25Washington
30:26and he had missed
30:26two games before that
30:27and he just wasn't
30:30at his
30:31didn't have his
30:31full superpowers

32:13and drawing charges
32:14the O.R. tumbles into
32:15the NBA
32:16and drawing charges
32:17that's why he's become a
32:18fan favorite even though
32:20his numbers aren't the
32:21most attractive
32:22his effort and his hustle
32:23is never never up for
32:24question
32:25and that's what this team
32:26needs that type of
32:27identity that type of

33:42at the garden
33:43being like hey no
33:44no worries you want me to
33:46guard Jalen Brunson
33:47or Carl Anthony Towns
33:48and he's just
33:49just signing up and being
33:50like hey
33:51hold my beer kid
33:52I'll be I'll be right back
33:53and uh
33:54it's almost like Jake
33:55Jason kiddish in that sense
33:56being a big physical guard
33:57being able to play at a high
33:58high level
33:59for a long long time
34:00and a big physical guard
34:01being able to play at a
34:02high high level
34:03for a long long time
34:04but also step up and uh
34:06you know you go outside
34:07weight classes
34:08I've been doing it for years
34:09and that's a championship
34:10caliber type of player
34:14couple of rings both in the
34:15east so he's
34:17knows the environment
34:18intimately here in New York
34:20Towns missing the free
34:21throw
34:2316 point Knicks lead
34:26Blazers
34:27while Brunson is on the bench
34:29need to take advantage
34:30Grant for the baseline
34:34pushed out by Ananobi
34:36holiday
34:37six to shoot
34:38operating on Bridges
34:39step back jumper
34:40tough shot
34:41in and out
34:43calling
34:44a look down the floor
34:45Sissoko
34:46intercedes
34:47cut off the route
34:49deflects it out of bounds
34:53although we're not scoring
34:54right now
34:55I really like this unit
34:56for a defensive lineup
34:57you see all this length
34:58the shortest guy is true
34:59holiday
35:00but you have a lot of length
35:01and they'll be able to
35:02switch
35:03and I believe at this point
35:04with a young point guard like
35:05Tyler Kohler
35:06even though I'm a big fan
35:07you have to take advantage of
35:08pressure at them and speed them
35:09up and put in this offense
35:11higher higher and higher
35:12Kohler
35:15into the paint
35:16Bridges a three
35:17on the closeout
35:18Williams makes contact
35:19and they're not lying when they
35:21say they're number one three-point
35:22shooting team in corners
35:23they get every shot from the
35:24corner
35:25wonder what that practice
35:27what those drills are
35:43take a look at the Pacific office
35:45automation stats
35:46Nixon 58% blazers off to a 36%
35:50shooting start New York five of
35:51eight from three lasers four of
35:53twelve a seventeen twelve New
35:55New York advantage Jalen Brunson
36:00leading the way for the New
36:01York Knicks Bridges steps up and
36:04hits the second you need to
36:07figure out how to get some
36:08stops and get on your fast rate
36:09points right now we're
36:10struggling versus team in
36:11half court and any time you do
36:13that we've got enough stops
36:14we just got to get out and
36:15break out have a couple guys
36:16freak out or something but going
36:18against a set defense has
36:19been the best for us.
36:25And rightfully so look at this
36:27unit.
36:28O.J.
36:29Moldy.
36:30Mitchell Bridges.
36:31A couple of all defenders.
36:33Yes.
36:34Yes.
36:35Yes.
36:36So it makes sense.
36:38Downs makes contact ball gets free
36:41run down by bridges.
36:43Kolek inside.
36:46Towns missed it at the cup regains
36:48control and just battles his way
36:50into the air to lay it home.
36:5243-22 count Knicks.
36:56Repair.
36:57Ryan the spin move.
37:00Had to unholster it over Diawara.
37:03Kolek with the three point shot.
37:06Knocks it down and the Knicks
37:08offense didn't miss a beat with
37:10Brunson on the bench.
37:15Miles McBride after 46-22.
37:19The good folks from Moda are here
37:21with us here tonight traveling
37:22on the road to support the
37:24Blazers.
37:25Great to see Scott Kelly and
37:26company and their guests.
37:28Let's check out the Moda
37:30assists of the game.
37:32And tonight it's been a lot of
37:33sour but a little bit of sweet
37:34and right here.
37:35A driving kick.
37:36Drew Holiday.
37:37Veteran point guard.
37:39Draw three people.
37:40Three defenders.
37:41The peripheral vision that you
37:43need.
37:44Splash out.
37:45Nothing but the bottom of the
37:46net.
37:47We need a couple more of those
37:48as well.
37:49For every Blazers assist this
37:50season.
37:51Moda Health and the Blazers
37:52donate $20 to build a new
37:53all abilities playground in a
37:55deserving Oregon community.
37:56For more information.
37:57Visit trailblazers.com.
37:59Kevin Turner with us here
38:02tonight.
38:03Lamar Heard taking pre-scheduled
38:06time off.
38:07We will see him on Sunday.
38:10The Blazers return home to take
38:12on the Cleveland Cavaliers.
38:14I hate to think that I'm bad
38:16luck.
38:17When Lamar was here we were on a
38:18roll right.
38:19We were.
38:20Yeah.
38:21We have to.
38:22We have to talk about that.
38:23Just being honest with you.
38:24All right.
38:25Yeah.
38:26Now I understand.
38:27Hey.
38:28I smell me first.
38:29Holiday.
38:31Got caught up.
38:32Turned.
38:33Trying to fling it out here to
38:34the point.
38:35Threw it by Grant out of bounds.
38:36A Blazer turnover.
38:37That is their sixth of the
38:38night.
38:39Five points off turnovers.
38:40The Knicks.
38:41Shooting lights out at 59 percent
38:44at six of nine.
38:46Colic as we mentioned getting the
38:49minutes.
38:50Miles McBride is out again
38:51tonight with an ankle.
38:54Carl Anthony Towns will turn.
38:56Fake.
38:57Drive it into the lane.
38:58Lost a handle on it.
38:59Pops right to Grant.
39:02Holiday.
39:03Find Sissoko on the wing.
39:05And City knocks down a triple.
39:07I'm a similar to just a motor
39:09assist of the night.
39:10Paint touch.
39:11Early transition shot.
39:12We got to execute and hit early.
39:14One of the top pace teams in the
39:16league.
39:17We got to work that through
39:18advantage.
39:19He's trying to grind away here.
39:20Bridges though comes back.
39:21He had two defenders running
39:22at him.
39:23Bridges a three.
39:24He shoots thirty nine percent
39:26from three.
39:30Williams picks up the dribble.
39:32Sissoko a little pressure
39:33release on the edge.
39:34Drops it off the holiday and
39:36flicked out of bounds.
39:37It'll be Blazer ball 11 to
39:38shoot.
39:39Hart.
39:40Shamit and Robinson will come in
39:42for the Knicks.
39:43And departing is Bridges and
39:44Anobey and Diomara.
39:48So Towns will shift outside to
39:49the four.
39:50Robinson will play the five.
39:51They go with their big
39:52lineup.
39:53Grant on the inbounds comes to
39:54it gets off the triple and
39:55knocked it down.
39:56Jeremy Grant trying to revive the
40:11Blazers hopes here with the
40:12three.
40:13The Blazers shooting six and
40:14fourteen forty three percent
40:15from three point range.
40:16Holliday gets buckled and a foul
40:18against the Knicks.
40:19This will turn it back to
40:20Portland.
40:21A little luck on our side.
40:29Moving screen.
40:30I think Drew just fell into a
40:32little bit of luck but we'll
40:33take it.
40:34Fouls on Robinson.
40:38Holliday gives a grand.
40:40Steps out for three.
40:41Sissoko keeps it alive into the
40:43hands of Holliday.
40:48Through crossing over on
40:49Robinson bounces low to
40:50Williams makes a nice catch.
40:51Sissoko brings it right down the
40:53alley and a slam dunk.
40:57That's good pass good cut.
40:59So this is so cool.
41:00Always seems to be in the right
41:01place right time.
41:02I love when he cuts the baseline
41:03man.
41:04We just make ourselves
41:05available.
41:06Knicks have led by as many as
41:08twenty-four.
41:09And if I were in that three two
41:10switching zone that we
41:11discussed about.
41:12Double fifth.
41:13Knicks can't miss heart with a
41:18fall away eighteen to thirty
41:19shooting from the field.
41:22And cross it over into the lane.
41:24Hard way to make a living as he
41:25got in there and got tangled up.
41:27And he's going to shoot too.
41:28So this is called Sissoko has been
41:31all over the floor at night.
41:33It's been moving moving moving
41:34trying to find trying to find
41:35the right spot.
41:36You see right here right down the
41:37middle with a with a jam.
41:38Get out that man's way.
41:39A truck is coming.
41:41City playing in his forty fourth
41:43game.
41:47Where's a two way player.
41:48Sissoko.
41:49The twenty one year old.
41:52Now in his third campaign
41:54bringing some energy out there
41:56to the floor.
41:58As always.
42:00Jeremy Grant step into the
42:01line.
42:02He's going to be right down the
42:03middle with a with a jam.
42:04Get out that man's way.
42:05A truck is coming.
42:07City playing in his forty fourth
42:08game.
42:09Where's a two way player.
42:10Grant step into the line.
42:11Grant.
42:15Six points against Washington.
42:20A game on Tuesday may have been
42:21the worst played of the year
42:22for the Blazers.
42:23They're trying to respond after
42:24two days off and a practice day
42:26yesterday here against the
42:27tough Knicks team.
42:28That's one four in a row.
42:30Shaman has it blocked by
42:31Williams.
42:32He deflects it into the hands of
42:33Sissoko into the lane to the
42:34glass drops it outside here to
42:36love for three tumbles off into
42:39the hands of Williams.
42:41Rip it outside to Sharp pump fake
42:42adjustment.
42:43The three is up and in for
42:44Shaden Sharp.
42:46That's your possessions.
42:47That's what we thrive at.
42:49Historically we're not going to
42:50make the first shot maybe not the
42:51second but the third one.
42:54It's a charm.
42:55And as you can see.
42:57Shaden Sharp still hot from last
42:58game.
42:59He had five threes.
43:00Spike Lee.
43:01Of course sitting courtside.
43:03Who else we got here.
43:04I mentioned Timothee Chalamet.
43:05He's here as well.
43:06Yeah.
43:07Stephon Marbury and maybe the
43:08biggest celeb in the place
43:10tonight would be our very own
43:11Evan Turner.
43:12E.T.
43:13You and I go way back.
43:14We even had a podcast together
43:16called Road Trippin and you were
43:18amazing.
43:19You would get the guests like I
43:20kind of thought maybe he's going
43:21to be too busy.
43:22Are we going to be able to do this.
43:23You were fantastic.
43:24You never missed one.
43:25You were always spot on and the
43:26reason I'm showing this right now.
43:27We were in L.A.
43:28I don't know if you remember that.
43:29But we had the funniest conversation
43:30because you made me sit on the
43:31other side because you had to sit
43:33on this side and do you remember
43:34why.
43:35Oh yeah.
43:36Because I need to see the door.
43:37I got to see the door man.
43:38Ever since that truck fell in my
43:39pool I just been paranoid.
43:40I don't know who to trust and what
43:42to do.
43:43Wow.
43:44But that was a mob hit that gone
43:45wrong and I haven't slept ever
43:46since.
43:47So I would be the first to go.
43:49Yeah.
43:50No no no no.
43:51I was going to throw my shoe.
43:52Don't worry.
43:53I was going to throw my shoe.
43:54So I got your back.
43:55That was fun.
43:56That was fun.
43:57We got some great guests back in
43:58the day too.
43:59And it was some great great
44:00conversation.
44:01I really really enjoyed that.
44:02We saw the picture of Wade Baldwin
44:04and I thought that was a cool
44:05conversation.
44:06We had an honorable Damien Leller
44:07and I think we had some natural
44:09fun.
44:10That was some fun times.
44:11Oh absolutely.
44:12Anytime you're hanging out with
44:13you at UT you're having fun
44:14that's for sure.
44:15We had the shoe doctor.
44:16Remember we had the shoe
44:17doctor on?
44:18Oh yeah.
44:19I liked that.
44:20He actually came out really big.
44:21He ended up doing usher shoes for
44:22the Super Bowl a couple years
44:23ago.
44:24I think it's because he was on our
44:25and that's what I was saying.
44:26He beat me to it.
44:27So anyway we'll talk about
44:29building a network on our own
44:31and somehow trying to steal the
44:32Blazers.
44:33I'm here for it.
44:34Sounds good.
44:35I'll email you.
44:36Sounds good.
44:37Email me.
44:38All right.
44:43Yes.
44:44It was promising.
44:45Shade and Sharp with a triple.
44:47Then the Knicks have an answer
44:48and a turnover on the Blazers.
44:50Josh.
44:51I'm not gonna lie to you.
44:52Basketball's game and runs.
44:53It's a long game.
44:54I'll take this fifteen point
44:55deficit over this.
44:56The twenty four point year we're
44:57looking at.
44:58How about the.
44:59We're about to hit the bar at
45:00halftime.
45:01I notice you.
45:02Your menu in hand.
45:04Brunson with it back in the
45:07lineup over here to heart the
45:08three.
45:09Rebound a Mitchell Robinson one of
45:11the better offensive rebounders in
45:13the league.
45:14The Knicks is a team.
45:15A very good offensive rebounding
45:16team.
45:19Brunson steps between two
45:20defenders.
45:21Gifts to heart.
45:22Into the air.
45:23Runner is off.
45:24There's Robinson another
45:25offensive rebound in the
45:26clutter.
45:27And it is cycled out to
45:28Brunson for a three.
45:29We had that conversation
45:30earlier Kevin.
45:31We said a cat and Donovan
45:33they're good at going to
45:34offensive rebounds and
45:35putting it back.
45:36But the guy Mitchell Robinson
45:37every time he gets it he
45:38sprays it right back out to
45:39one of his teammates.
45:40And you see he finds Jalen
45:42Brunson or one of the top
45:43shooters on the team and
45:44does what he has to do.
45:45But we have to get down
45:46hill once again and keep
45:47throwing the ball up top.
45:49Rolling early.
45:52Jalen Blunt with the assist
45:53there to Clingon.
45:54Brunson again finds the
45:55corner.
45:56The three.
45:57Finds the side of the
45:58glass.
45:59But Robinson again gets a
46:00possession for the Knicks.
46:01Brunson blew it at the
46:02cup.
46:03Thought he had been found.
46:04They play on.
46:05Anvia with it.
46:10Sharpe steps up on Kolek and
46:13hits another three.
46:14He's been sharp from beyond
46:16the arc.
46:17Shaden has.
46:18And anytime you let him
46:19get his feet set, it's
46:21deadly.
46:22And every time I watch it
46:23he loads you to sleep and
46:24he's literally one two
46:25step right up.
46:26Brunson back and down again
46:28on Kamara.
46:29Turn around.
46:31Hopper is off.
46:32Rebound to Clingon.
46:33Quick outlet pass to Shaden
46:34Sharp.
46:35Sharp 4 of 6 from 3.
46:3814 points.
46:41Trying to shake Hart.
46:42It does.
46:43Lop inside from Clingon.
46:45Hart from behind gets a
46:46piece off the window.
46:47Volleyed.
46:48And the Knicks on the run
46:49again.
46:52Look at them all moving.
46:53Kolek at 3.
46:54No.
47:00Lays are trying to scramble
47:01into this one.
47:02As Evan Turner mentioned,
47:03the Knicks' largest lead
47:04has been 24.
47:05Denny Advia goes to the
47:06body of Hart who is
47:08moving.
47:09He upends Denny Advia
47:10and a foul on Josh Hart.
47:17We gotta keep attacking the
47:18paint.
47:19We gotta keep forcing the
47:20ref to call fouls and get
47:21into the bonus and make
47:22them uncomfortable.
47:23Right now the Knicks
47:24haven't been uncomfortable
47:25with it.
47:26We haven't been able to
47:27make them stop a beat.
47:28But we have to use this
47:29momentum especially closing
47:30out the second half to be
47:31to step up.
47:32Make some plays.
47:33Get to the foul line.
47:34And push this game under
47:3510.
47:36We go into halftime under
47:3710.
47:38I like our eyes because we
47:39have yet to really make
47:40shots or even find our
47:41rhythm.
47:42Yeah to your point the
47:43Blazers are 2 of 3 from
47:44the line and the Knicks
47:458 of 10 shooting from the
47:46strike.
47:48Advia course is
47:49extraordinary getting to
47:50the rim and getting to
47:51the line.
47:52He'll drive and kick here
47:53to love.
47:54Caleb outside sets his feet
47:56triggers the 3.
47:57Kamara trying to keep it
47:58alive and it rolls off his
47:59sleeve and it's recovered
48:00here by Kat.
48:03Towns turns.
48:08Rifles a triple up there.
48:09That's off.
48:10Advia.
48:11There we go.
48:12Head down.
48:13Shoulders leaning into the
48:14lane.
48:15Gives to Klingen making
48:16himself steady in there
48:20was Brunson.
48:21He got firmed up and draws
48:22the contact and Brunson
48:24gives the Knicks another
48:25possession on the foul to
48:26Abdiah.
48:27But that's the pace we need.
48:28That transition push.
48:30We're so good when you're
48:31out in transition with
48:32Denny.
48:33We just got to figure out
48:34ways to you know make sure
48:35we can execute and finish
48:37each play with a bucket.
48:39But Denny forehead esteem
48:41it's going to be a problem
48:429 times out of 10.
48:47Bridges screen and roll.
48:49Hart inside.
48:51Bridges.
48:52Oh man.
48:54Reach and a foul.
48:57Now the Blazers want to take a
49:08look at this they're going to
49:09challenge.
49:13So Soko made the play on
49:14Bridges but the foul was
49:15called.
49:17Just a moment ago by the PA
49:18announcer on Sharp.
49:21So Tiago splitter.
49:24Portland is going to take a
49:25look.
49:26personal foul.
49:29Oh.
49:30Obviously sharp nowhere near
49:31and I think it was just it
49:32that was mistakenly called
49:33Jaden Sharp.
49:34But if you want to go even
49:35further you see with his
49:36left hand.
49:37McKell Britton's trying to guard
49:38us.
49:39So go.
49:40Oh it could be an offensive
49:41foul.
49:42Yeah.
49:43Let's see what they do.
49:44right here.
49:45Drawing right.
49:47You see the circle gets the
49:48left hand block.
49:49And you see the bridges.
49:50He actually on the forearm
49:51and gauges.
49:52yeah.
49:53So they'll take a look.
49:54The early theme of this is the
49:55Knicks aren't turning the ball
49:56over.
49:57They're shooting extraordinarily
49:58well from three.
49:59eight of 16 from triple land.
50:00Blazers got off to a really tough start shooting the basketball.
50:02mixed with nine second chance points and Blazers with seven.
50:05Borton led by Shaden Sharp who's four of six of three with four of six of three with four of six
50:12of three.
50:13So they'll take a look.
50:14The early theme of this is the Knicks aren't turning the ball over.
50:17They're shooting extraordinarily well from three.
50:19Eight of 16 from triple land.
50:22Blazers got off to a really tough start shooting the basketball.
50:28mixed with nine second chance points and Blazers with seven.
50:32Borton led by Shaden Sharp who's four of six of three with 14 points.
50:37Denny Advia in eleven minutes two of six with four points scored for the Blazers.
50:42Taking a long look at this.
50:52After review the defender makes legal contact with the basketball.
50:55Therefore the call has been overturned to a no call imminent possession will be awarded to Portland
51:00in the backcourt with 24 in the shot clock and Portland will retain the opportunity for a second challenge.
51:05I love I gotta find his name but I love when he jumps on the microphone with that southern twang and I'm like Kevin Scott.
51:14Kevin Scott man when you're done when you're done being a rap I would love to hear your country album about your NBA days.
51:21I think I think that could hit the road.
51:24I think the NBA could really.
51:26I see the all-star in your future.
51:28Or Lisa G. Lee at least.
51:30A performance for sure.
51:32At least all a Conway Twitties hits.
51:34Kevin Scott.
51:36Shane Sharp handling he's been red hot tonight.
51:40He finds a lane into the lane to the glass.
51:42Finger rolls it by Carl Anthony Towns.
51:44It won't go.
51:45Klingon got it.
51:46Chopped out of his hands and Donovan got hurt.
51:48Holding his hand grimacing.
51:50He got popped it looks like on the left hand.
51:53He's got to get back and does.
51:55As Brunson now will bring it for the Knicks.
51:57No rolls out.
51:58Just let him shoot it.
51:59Open look.
52:00In and out.
52:01Rebounded Donovan Clingit.
52:02Donovan points to the bench says he's okay.
52:04Tomani Kamara tees up a triple.
52:05That's off.
52:06Towns the rebound.
52:07Donovan loves the hoop.
52:08He's a baller.
52:09He doesn't ever want to come out the game.
52:10I really have a lot of respect for him and his toughness.
52:12Unforced turnover on the Knicks.
52:13One of the rare opportunities now for the Blazers here.
52:16Down 13.
52:17He's a baller.
52:18He doesn't ever want to come out the game.
52:19I really have a lot of respect for him and his toughness.
52:22Unforced turnover on the Knicks.
52:23One of the rare opportunities now for the Blazers here.
52:26Down 13 to 40 to go in the second.
52:30And.
52:31Donovan Clingit coming over here to the Blazer bench holding his left hand.
52:39Looks like Jalen Brunson slapped this.
52:41Sometimes the little guards they know to hit the ball and hit him.
52:45It's like payback for every time a big man sets a hard screen.
52:49That's just how the game goes man.
52:50He'll be all right big fella.
52:53Shade Sharp was able to go downhill off a high screen.
52:58And.
53:00Put defenders on his hip.
53:01He draws the foul.
53:02On Hart.
53:04Game night just got better with Best Day Brewing.

53:12Perfect for tonight's game or any day.
53:14Find it at Best Day Brewing Company.
53:16Sharp missing the first.
53:17A rare opportunity at the line for the Blazers who were 2 of 4 up there.
53:18Trailing here by 13.
53:19Down by as many as 24.
53:20Knicks led by Jalen Brunson with 16.
53:21Kamara will pick him up full court.
53:22Tamati playing with two fouls.
53:2316 to shoot.
53:24And 2.
53:252.
53:262.

53:52Субтитры сделал DimaTorzok
54:22Камара спинс, backing in on Ananobi
54:25Out to Denny, comes in from the far point
54:29Musters up a runner, won't go
54:31Towns rips the rebound away
54:33I think Denny, Denny's been driving to Iraq
54:36I believe he needs to get some more fouls, man
54:38He deserves to get a few
