All right, let's flip it around, Mo.

Knicks have the ball, obviously their offense.

These teams were tied for third in offensive efficiency in the regular season.

The Knicks have ascended to a different planet on offense in the regular season.

Let's talk about how they're going to attack.

the single greatest defensive force the league has seen in a long time.

And we're not far from saying ever at this point with what Wemby is doing.

I would expect the normal thing that a lot of teams do against the Knicks and a dispersive done against the Knicks.

And that's for victim women, Yama to guard slash not guard Josh Hart.

and play a one-man zone and put wings on Cat and try to switch to Brunson, Cat, pick and roll and just take them out of all of that.

Now, what the matchups are is interesting.

I personally like Fox guarded Brunson more than I thought in the regular season.

I didn't think he looked particularly up to that, and I would try to avoid that matchup at the Spurs.

What I would probably do is put Castle – if I'm going to put Wemby on Hart, and I think that is the way they'll start, we'll see Wemby on Cat plenty –

wendy on mitchell robinson for sure if i'm going to start wendy on heart and just say rome and play zone like heart has seen over and over again in the playoffs in the regular season i'll put castle on brunson um champagne on bridges or i'm sorry fox on bridges you're right and vassell on cat yeah and fox on bridges and champagne on whoever i'm for in an ob i guess

I want to start with Castle on Brunson.

Vassell on Cat is not great, and Cat's going to have opportunities to post up in this series, and that's sort of the flip side of the Harrison, Barnes, Champagny switch out the Spurs they made is they have gotten smaller, and this is a matchup where that could actually hurt them a little bit.

But that's how I would match up, and that's how I expect them to match up.

And then Castle on Brunson is a fascinating matchup.
