About this listen
In this episode, we argue whether the New York Knicks’ gritty road win over the Dallas Mavericks was season-shaping or simply expected against a short-handed opponent. The debate hits every beat of a chaotic finish: Jalen Brunson’s 28-point return from a sprained ankle, his clutch kick-out to Landry Shamet, and the late offensive foul that sealed it. We unpack New York’s 19-of-35 free-throw problem, the 4:39 defensive clamp that held Dallas without a field goal, and how Luka-less lineups plus Kyrie Irving’s absence framed the closing minutes. It’s equal parts film-room breakdown and roast session.
Episode Highlights- Brunson’s shot-making and playmaking on the game-sealing Shamet three.
- Shamet’s two-way night: on-ball stops and drawing the decisive whistle.
- Knicks’ free-throw woes (3-for-10 in Q4) versus late-game defense.
- Mavs context: shorthanded rotations, Brandon Williams’ last look, Jason Kidd’s reaction.
