00:00The Knicks actually shot the ball pretty well, like the Knicks shooting percentage was sky

00:07high, but you can't, you can't keep up and like, that's the thing, whether we like it

00:12or don't like it, it is what it is.

00:14And I'm not a massive fan of it, but it's similar to home runs and launch angles and

00:19all this stuff in baseball.

00:21You can't trade two for threes in a modern NBA.

00:25It just is what it is.

00:26Maybe one day it'll change and somehow, you know, the style will change and it'll go back

00:31to a more physical brand of basketball.

00:34But like you, like if you're the New York Knicks, all right, you score 109 points, you

00:39score 109 points in an NBA game, you're supposed to be, you're supposed to win the game.

00:43And or yeah, we lost like 110-109, right?

00:47But you score 109, but the other team, like you're trading twos for threes, the math doesn't

00:52add up at the end of the game.

00:55And you know, that's what makes the Boston Celtics just so damn dangerous because they're

01:15NBA.

01:16The Celtics are the real deal.

01:17They cover the number.
