You know the reason that some of those switches are working, why Brunson is fighting against those switches? I don't think I've ever seen him be this just... It's not that he shies away from contact ever defensively, but I don't think I've ever seen him say, you know what? I am the tinier guy here. They are not going to call anything against me.

I am just bumping my chest into Jason Tatum when I'm far away from the rim every time. Certainly, Mikael Bridges has never been this physical all year, I should say. Not never in his career, but just this season. Navigating screens, especially. So much of this season, there was just...

Like discombobulation, Bridges would have a ball screen up against him and he'd pull up short or there'd be miscommunication from the back end or something like that. And I do think the one guy who deserves to be mentioned also, who I think you didn't mention, was Mitchell Robinson, who has been so dangerous. big for them on the defensive end.

They are winning his minutes by a landslide in this series. I don't think that's a coincidence. He is so much better on switches than he used to be when he would foul like crazy.

So Boston averaged 26 assists a game during the regular season. They have 35 total over the first two games of the series.

They are nine of 45. It's unbelievable. And I do think we've mentioned the switching a bunch of times. And I do think a lot of it has to do with not even necessarily the quality of the Knicks switches, because I think the execution on the Knicks switch has kind of been up and down, depending on which guys we're talking about. But just the fact that it's actually happening.

I mean, look, Orlando switched so much against Boston. And this is not the first time that a team has just switched a bunch against Boston. Boston saw more switching than pretty much any other team in the league during the regular season. But they are reacting to these switches completely differently.
