The Knicks are gearing up for a crucial back-to-back home game stretch, following a strong win against the Wizards. Coach Tom Thibodeau highlighted Mikal Bridges' hot streak and the importance of adjusting to defenses. Tyler Kolek stepped up in the absence of key players Jalen Brunson and Deuce McBride, showcasing his readiness and ability to contribute. Players acknowledged the importance of playing solid basketball and maintaining focus throughout the game, especially after a tense moment where the lead diminished to four points. Overall, the team is looking to build on momentum as they face the Mavericks.
"He did a really good job. When someone gets hot like that, usually there will be an adjustment to put two on them, and then we've gotta adjust and play off of that as well. So it was good for him to get going."
"Big time, big time man. Shoutout to Ty...he was ready...I know he gonna stay ready. Man I need some of them assists, he ain't wanna make none I was giving him the ball na...Shoutout to Ty...finding Kale constantly."
"I didn't even know it was a four-point game. I just honestly just came back out there and play solid basketball, not looking at the score. I'd probably just say that's the NBA for you. They were on a back-to-back. Took 'em a while to get going. The young guys started playing well. We've just gotta make sure we play 48 minutes. But that's just the NBA for you. You can get beat any day."
"It feels good, especially after hitting the side of the backboard twice in a row. But it felt good. It was cool to see it go through. Glad I found a way to help us to get the lead back up."
