#Knicks PG Jalen Brunson ranks 7th in assists per game (8.4) since the OG Anunoby trade.
Thibs: “Our spacing on the floor is different, and then all players and everyone is different, so whatever your strengths are, play to your strengths.”

Jacque Vaughn said the Nets watched the entire Clippers 4th quarter today at shootaround, something they wouldn’t normally do:

Dariq Whitehead on his left shin stress reaction recovery timeline. “We’re still figuring that out with coaches & some of the front staff so just making sure we make all the right precautions to make sure I’m back in time for next year and not having any problems (or setbacks).” – 6:31 PM

Jacque Vaughn on Day’Ron Sharpe’s recovery:
“He’s really limited on the court right now: shooting free-throws, dribbling the basketball, no other players around him. No setbacks though… He said he had been feeling the best since the injury, which was good to hear.” pic.twitter.com/jOxhHSy7XH6:22 PM

Dariq Whitehead on his stress reaction: “Just trying to take the right steps to make sure my shin is where it needs to be before I step back on the court again to make sure there’s no setbacks…trying make sure we take care of things the right way and not have setbacks” #nets6:22 PM

Jacque Vaughn said Ben Simmons will not play this week but the team hopes to get him a practice in Long Island in the near future:
“He will not play this week, but all signs are pointing towards him… at some point I think we’ll use Long Island, hopefully, to get a practice… pic.twitter.com/QgbsEauXGb6:08 PM

Isaiah Hartenstein is out tonight against the Nets with a lingering foot issue. Said it’s a day-to-day thing. Thibodeau declines to say who is starting, and then later cites Jericho Sims’ stats as a starter.
When asked if he could start, Thibodeau said, “He could be.” – 6:04 PM

We had former Knicks PG Charlie Ward on this week’s episode of @offbeatthepod
I asked Charlie about playing with Rick Brunson on the ‘98-99 Knicks team that made it to the NBA Finals.
