NBA HIGHLIGHTS: Porzingis stars as Knicks win

“That vintage (Rose) is gone, man”. It was his second-best move of the night. Rose capped off his fourth quarter takeover by draining a contested jump shot that extended New York’s lead to 107-103.

In contrast, when the Knicks run the slower triangle, Rose tends to drift on defense, and can get caught in lazy positions by most National Basketball Association point guards.

Rose made the go-ahead basket with a little more than three minutes remaining and hit the jumper that clinched it with 6.8 seconds left. “I was reckless. I was young”, Rose said of his Chicago days.

There were four lead changes in the third quarter.

And Rose, a free agent this summer, seems just fine with that. Rose refused to be apologetic after the game when asked about why he made a decision to take the big shots, reminding people that he has a history of taking and making them. Carmelo Anthony was aggressive as well, taking 22 shots on the night.

Kristaps Porzingis scored 31 points as the Knicks notched their seventh win in 14 games. Rose scored eight of his 18 points in the final period and notched five assists total. It is all legs. You have one injury, and that kind of resets everything. “Like, this entire time, these three or four years, I’m playing catch-up”.

“I label myself as a victor”. I bought my place well before he became [a presidential] candidate. At the same time I really want to win. “When you have point guards like myself and Derrick, he can make plays”. By winning 10 games and losing just two thus far, the team is proving that they are going to be a force to reckoned with once again this season.

“Brandon doesn’t have to score to have an impact on the game, ” Hornacek said. “His activity, he gets the energy going for the group he is out there with”.

Jennings told the media after the game “I’ve always been a true point guard”.

Kristaps Porzingis torched the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday night. Turner came off the bench to contribute 11 points and two assists as Portland dropped the fourth of their last five games.

It was Denver’s 10th consecutive win over the Bulls (9-6) on home court, with Chicago winless on their travels against the Nuggets (6-8) since 2006.

“He was aggressive”, said Anthony. Since he can play small forward and power forward, Kuzminskas can help overcome the struggles that Lance Thomas, a gem off the bench last season, has gone through. Portland Trail Blazers head coach Terry Stotts is aware of that, so he will focus some of his attack by forcing Love to play against Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum. He said yeah so I don’t think I have to bring anything but an appetite.

We’re almost 20 percent of the way through Portland’s 2016-17 season and – unless you’ve been living under a rock – you know the Trail Blazers have struggled with bouts of inconsistency lately.
