Knicks Knotes from a big win at home:
Mike Brown:
"We might go on another three-game losing streak!"
Spoke to ups and downs of a long season, need to stay consistent. Said the trainers aren't stretching the players any differently amidst win streak.

Mike Brown on his own progress:
"I'll be the first to admit. I didn't know when to put Josh in, take him out, I didn't know when to put Mitch in, take him out, I was still figuring out our rotations...I thought I was bad, and we were bad as a team, in Miami..."

Mike Brown says Mitchell Robinson was the defensive player of the game.
"He keeps throwing up these stats that are amaz- he played 16.5 minutes... plus-40...not a huge believer in [+/-], but to see a number like that, in the short amount of time that he played – just amazing"

Mike Brown on halftime adjustment:
"Michael Porter Jr. is a really good basketball player and he had 22 at halftime, & we addressed it...did a good job coming out and trying to be more conscious, more aware of where he was on the floor. Ended up with, I think, 3 pts in the 2H"

Knicks going with Kolek, Dadiet, Diawara, Yabusele, and Hukporti here.
Not the first time Brown has played Yabusele in 'garbage time' at the end of a game. Seems like he's been using it as an opportunity to ensure Yabusele's in game-shape.

E.J. Liddell was so busy hooking Ariel Hukporti to establish paint position that he forgot to have a hand free in case they passed it to him.
You can feel every bit of the 123-90 score right now. 5:13 left in the game, too. We're not even close to done here

Michael Porter Jr. is a -22, a game-low through three quarters.
He has 25 points, four boards on 9-18 FG, 4-9 3PT. Straight up MyCareer. Has to be kind of awesome

The Nets are the kind of team this year that you can get right against. Brunson and Bridges disagreed on a play to start a possession, led to hesitation and the offense stalling.
Knicks reset, went through the motions of the set, and OG Anunoby made a corner 3-pointer.
