Knicks played a White friendly game against Atlanta tonight. KP lead the way with 30 points, 8 boards and 3 blocks. Doug McBuckets stepped up and added 23 points. Ron Baker is back now and added 9 points and 4 assists while playing major minutes. The Hawks, who are not a good team, had 5 of our guys in their rotation. Hopefully they’ll improve as the season progresses.

I noticed Joe Harris is averaging 10ppg as a Net this year, it's the first time in his 3 year career he's gotten consistent getting playing time and he's responding nicely! Always liked his all around game at UVA under Tony Bennett!

Markkanen should easily win Rookie of the Year this year as well!!

Good to see the Knicks get back to winning again after a short slump. K. Porzingos
had 30 pts tonight in a close win including a monster dunk late in the game. He is
averaging over 24 points a game. KP owns NY! He will lead them to the playoffs many
times in the next decade and hopefully bring the city it's first nba champinship in decades!
