Pistons-Knicks, 3-1 Knicks. Was it a foul? Yeah. It was a foul. Probably should have had your challenge. Probably should have consulted the flowchart. Well, you can't challenge that, can you? Why not? Could you challenge a non-call? I believe we saw another challenge of a non-call this weekend. Yeah, you're right. It was a foul.

Josh Hart said it was a foul. It's the arms that get me in the end. The arms come down a little bit. And I will credit Tim Hardaway Jr. for this. He doesn't jump sideways super aggressively to sell it. And I think in the end pays the price for playing borderline ethical basketball and not doing what a lot of players would do, which is completely take a sideways jump shot. It was a foul.

And the Knicks win anyway. I don't know what else to say about it. It sucks to have a game decided on a play like that. Ultimately, there's a lot of things that go into deciding the game. The Knicks are only plus eight for the series. They're scoring 110 points per 100 possessions. They're going to win the series. They should win the series, obviously.

Brunson has the injury scare and then comes back and scores 15 points in the fourth quarter on seven of 11 shooting. Incredible, incredible performance, incredible shot making. And cat with just two all time bailout jumpers, one falling out of bounds on a totally dead possession where the again, the Knicks don't run their best stuff. And the other one,

If you freeze the moment where Kat makes that step back three that ultimately wins the game, you will struggle to find worst space, worse spacing from a competent NBA offense. Literally all five Knicks players are within the same 20 foot quadrant of the floor on the right side. And Kat steps back and it's a three incredible shot. Where do you want to go?

I mean, I'm already looking ahead to the next series, which will be Knicks Celtics, probably. I feel a little worse about the Knicks coming out of this series than I did coming into it. I picked the Knicks in five. This is on course for Knicks in five, but it's not the Knicks in five that I envisioned.

Well, Hart has been awesome the last two games. And there was a segment of Knicks fans clamoring for less Josh Hart and more Deuce McBride. By the way, Deuce McBride can't make a shot. And I said on Thursday, like, that's just not going to happen. Josh Hart is too important to the fabric of the team. Tibbs is the last coach who's going to do something like that.

And Josh Hart, 14 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals in Game 4, made his threes, which are going to be pivot points in this series. And in Game 3, I thought Josh Hart pushing the pace...

unlocked cat because the pistons could not get out of the durin cat matchup which they're trying to avoid and durin was stuck on cat cat walked into some trail threes not only that using josh hart as a facilitator from above the elbow and getting your cutting game going i think opened up their offense a little bit so i you know i get what you're saying i just sometimes i wonder like

You know, Bill has spent the whole year raving justifiably about the Brunson cat pick and roll and how unstoppable it is with shooting around it and Bridges heart. I mean, heart shooting, take or leave an Ananobi who's been outstanding the whole year. They've run 47 pick and rolls in four games. That's just not nearly enough.

And in both Game 3 and Game 4, yesterday because of Tobias Harris' foul trouble, they were gifted extended periods of time where the Pistons decided we have no choice but to guard Cat with Jalen Duren or Paul Reed. We're putting our centers on him because we just can't, we don't have anything else to do.

And you're just like, you are been gift wrapped, gift wrapped a chance to run a Brunson cat pick and pop and just see how they respond. And they either don't do it or they run it so halfheartedly that it doesn't go anywhere. And there's fatigue in that too.

And even when they have to, I keep harping on this, even when they have Tobias Harris on cat, you're not outlawed by the NBA from running that same two man gap.

game because guess what if Tobias Harris switches Jalen Brunson is going to get a good shot and what he's usually doing is just hugging cat and saying we're not leaving cat and Jalen Brunson is getting good driving lanes and if it also if he switches you might get a cap like you're allowed to do this and this is I think I'm assuming I haven't listened to Bill and Ryan yet why Bill tweeted this is a brutal Tibbs game because you are you are

You are gifted this chance of we don't have to problem solve around Jalen Duren on Josh Hart. We are given the matchup that we got Cat for, center on Cat, and we don't leverage it. It's driving me insane. Is it driving you insane?

42 in the series. It doesn't feel that bad to me. Although there, there, there was one catch and shoot three cat had in look like three minutes ago where he was kind of spaced out at no man's land. I was surprised. It's that dramatic minus 42.

21 years old. 21 and a half years old. Incredible.

I used to call Mike Budenholzer Coach Low Hanging Fruit, and people took it as an insult. And I was like, no, it's a compliment. He's taking all the easy, like, we're not going to foul. We're going to get every defensive rebound. Like, we're going to take care of all the stuff that's easy for us to take care of. It was a completely, it was like meant as a compliment. Pick the fruit. Fruit's there.

It's delicious.

I don't know if that's the conversation I want to have about a guy who's getting paid 53 million next season, 57 million the year after 61 million the effort. Like, yeah, we can't really, we've got to dial back to pick and rolls with the best shooting self-proclaimed best shooting big man in the history of the NBA because of his fat. It's not, it's not, it's not good.
