There are so many good playmakers at the point of attack in basketball, and the Knicks see them often. And I think that when you have those ones that are above good – They're able to kind of take those disadvantages to the tool shed, and they're able to generate offense for the team too. So I think that's the big thing.

I think teams – the really, really good teams are putting Brunson and Cat in the action. Again, it's not their fault. They are – Both, they both try, they both compete. They just have limitations. And that's why I kind of had questions about the makeup of the roster after the trade, because I, I didn't think the Knicks would be worse, but I wasn't sure that they would be better.

I just knew that they'd be different. And I think it's shown itself there. They were really good offense team last year. They're, way better this year, even though I think they were top five last year. Where they're at this year is even better. And defensively, they were fifth last year, and they're 17th this year. And that's a pretty big gap.

Obviously, Dallas, I think, was a top five offense last year and 18th on defense in the regular season. So it can lead to something, right? But I do think that is the biggest – That is the biggest hurdle they have to climb, having two players who have limitations defensively.

No, it's not. And I think you could make the case that he is one of the 15 most important players to winning in basketball this season. I think you could make the case that he's been the Knicks' second best Definitely their most consistent player if you're counting both sides of the ball and maybe their second or third best player this year.

I wrote a story a few weeks ago how he has the first he's going to has a chance to be the first player under six foot eight to average. What is the numbers? I'm trying to find it here. I can't find it right now. At least 14 points, nine rebounds, five assists and a steal while shooting about 50% from the field and 35% from three. He's six foot four.

I think people forget that the only players to ever do it are Embiid, Jokic and Larry Bird. So think about a six foot four guy. Everyone's like, you just pulled, you're just, you could pick point, pick any stats and make a weird thing out of it. Well, only three guys have done it.
