The Knicks remain in a competitive position in their playoff series against the Celtics, leading 2-1 despite suffering a loss. Coach Thibs and his team reflected on their defensive performance, highlighting the significance of wing versatility and how they plan to address shortcomings in both offensive execution and transition opportunities. They acknowledged the mental aspect of missed shots affecting team energy, stressing the need for adaptability, particularly in reacting to Boston's strategies such as the Hack-a-Mitch tactic. Preparing for upcoming games is crucial as they seek to harness their strengths while improving weaknesses.
When you put OG with Mikal and Josh, that wing versatility is huge. To add in what [Mitchell Robinson] has brought to that and also Karl's defense, I think it vastly improved.
When we do that, that tends to get everyone easy buckets, and we can play off that better.
There's a lot of different ways you can help win a game. No one is going to shoot great every night.
You've gotta make a decision between five [minutes left in a quarter] and two, and then you go from there.
