Knicks at a Crossroads: Is Their Playoff Dream About to Collapse?
“Our pick-and-roll defense was not good tonight,” Brown said. “We tried a lot of different things. We tried to blitz, we tried to switch the matchups, we went to a little zone, too. But it was to no avail, and we have to do a better job in that area going forward, because it was really bad tonight.”
The Knicks are 16th in defensive rating over the last two weeks, they’re 16th in defensive rating since March 1 and … they’re 16th in defensive rating since the All-Star break. New York’s biggest strength (Brunson’s offense) is also their biggest weakness (Brunson’s defense). Its offense simply falls apart with him off the floor, 7.2 points per 100 possessions better in his minutes, 93rd percentile, per Cleaning the Glass. But the Knicks are surrendering nearly six more points defensively at the same time. (Hart, Jordan Clarkson and Robinson have all been net negatives at that end of the floor, too.)
