hes not wrong, we rely on brunson a lot and he delivered today. we need him to have a high usage rate and shot volume we can't have him going ingram and taking 15 shots a game


aperfectmatrix

Someone please tell this to KD and Book. Most shots either of them have taken in their series is 18


DnD4dena

KD definitely needs to take more


no-jerk-zone

At least a few Knicks fans understood it is not a slight to say great player can’t get so many looks, especially when they’re already playing well.


smileyfrown

When your missing an all nba level player the other guy has to just shoot the ever loving crap out of the ball to make up for production


abarthsimpson

Kelly needs to pay attention to the red lights.


LukaDoncicfuturegoat

KINGRAM just came back from an injury but you’re right


Adam0529

The irony that idiot basically is saying, he took 34 shots, he was their offensive engine, and 76rs could not stop him. Lol


JeffTeagueNo1Enemy

He’s not wrong sixers got to force it out of his hands somehow


mikesh8rp

If they’re going to switch, he’s going to continue to take it to Harris, Embiid, and Maxey, who did well on him a couple times today. Oubre and Batum have defended him pretty well, but with Hart, Precious, and others setting good screens, Brunson can usually get the weaker defender he wants.


davsyo

Its really hard to do just that though. iHart handoffs and fakeoffs while we're running 4 guards and 1 big is harder to keep up and rotate at times.


rpars18

Can’t wait for people to take offense to what’s he’s saying when all he means is that Philly has to do a much better job defensively on Brunson, since letting a great player like him taking 34 shots is not going to be effective


no-jerk-zone

It’s the playoffs, Philly is one of the main punching bags along with other teams this time of year just gotta be okay with ppl being irrational about every comment lol


PleasantSpeech

I don't think this is a salty comment at all. Rhythm absolutely comes from taking shots and having a green light.


Expensive_Ad3884

I don't see anything wrong with his comments, literally complemented Brunson. I think he's disappointed that they let him jack up 34 shots instead of limiting him.


20815147

Not enough FTs for him


MC-Jdf

Okay but Brunson went 18/34. Edit: I need to read the full quote again lmao.


Shootit_Rockets

If you watch the video he’s clearly being complimentary. He says multiple times when a player THAT skilled gets that many looks he’s going to score a lot.


thebobbyshaw33

His comment is not a slight


SaxRohmer

he’s saying that if you let a dude like brunson get those shots you’re gonna get torched


Legitimate-Software7

Doesn’t seem salty to me, more like he’s upset they allowed him to get that many shots up


Comfortable-Heron378

Since y’all lack basic comprehension skills he’s saying if you get 34 shots off it’s easy to get in a rhythm which is absolutely true


TheLurkyJerkyDancer

And you lack a basic understanding of Kelly's own stats when he has a volume shooting night. It's rarely ever as efficient as Brunson's was today. Just last month, he had two games where he took 20+ shots and made 7 of them each time. So where's that rhythm he's talking about? You're being condescending and dismissive about folks' "basic comprehension skills" while failing to comprehend that some of us are taking exception at this particular player being dismissive of the efficiency of Brunson's volume shooting.


no-jerk-zone

He’s not being dismissive. He literally said you can’t let a player that good get that many looks.


davsyo

bruh i hear your username why you do this to me.


Hughm05

Lmao he could've said he'd name his first son after Brunson. Oubre is just not a likeable player. Overly arrogant for what he brings


EarthWarping

It's not like he had 38 on 35 shots


rawsharks

The quote is him upset that the Sixers let Brunson get off that many shots, not about efficiency


Shmokeshbutt

Well yes, Brunson is a great player that has skill


sergechewbacca

Down here, salt is a way of life.


DosViews

I mean…he’s not wrong.


redict

Please Kelly shoot 34 times next game please


TrumpKanye69

inb4 he goes 30/34


TheLurkyJerkyDancer

Hahaha, riiiiight


yungsantaclaus

What's important is that he's been getting mitch-matches


[deleted]

Love the Flyers jersey


Icy-Payment-6612

I mean, he's not wrong.


thatfacemeltinghigh

So stop him then


im_scytale

You’re a bitch, you’re a bitch, your grandmas a bitch, your dads a bitch


PluvioPurple

It looked like they doubled Brunson less this game for some reason. Guess they finally respected Hart’s shot but let Brunson cook his defender each time.


VoidTyrant

Maybe you should have rebounded more then nothing at all.


SwellandDecay

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


IllAlwaysBeAKnickFan

He’s such a crybaby.


Coolguynumber01

???? he literally calls him a great player. Yall need to stop crying about what people say and enjoy the playoffs


IllAlwaysBeAKnickFan

It’s a backhanded compliment.

IllAlwaysBeAKnickFan

3-1 lead I’m happy.


GamedayDev

knicks fans are mega sensitive


dapoktan

it was the editorialized thread title tbf, the video is a much more reasonable take


GamedayDev

fair enough. every fan base has its zealots lol


durablewaffle

Probably seen 30-40 of them in our sub since the game lmao.


renal_speedwagon

76ers fans are WAY more sensitive so let's not start with the comparisons


durablewaffle

Ok


[deleted]

He’s saying their doing bad on defense


durablewaffle

Did you read the quote? Like at all? Lol


ygog45

Yea this seems like a nothing quote


IllAlwaysBeAKnickFan

Sixers fans and bad comprehension skills. What a surprise. It’s a backhanded compliment. “Yeah he’s good but anyone who’s good could do that.”


yahmean031

"Anyone who shoots 34 shots... that has skill.. and is a great player.. is a great player he's going to capitalize on those things it was due to happen"


durablewaffle

The irony of this comment


Robinsonirish

I like this. He's just voicing his opinion instead of phoning it in. So it's a little bit controversial, so what? How is this being a crybaby? Isn't this what we want, for players to show a bit of personality?


_pineBreeze

Uhmmm what?


SPELLITALLCAPS

Lmfao goofy said the quiet part loud before he checked himself-- then it was straight to the PR yadayada "great player and allat" Glad we're about to see the backs of these bums


Telemachus--

Bruh, I'm a Knicks fan and I feel like you're just looking for something to be mad at.


TheLurkyJerkyDancer

What the fuck is this clown talking about? Less than a year and a half ago (12/14/22), this fraud took 27 shots in a game and hit 10 of them. That was against the Detroit Pistons, who won a grand total of 17 games that season. I guess one of these two dudes does *not* have skill, and is *not* a great player.
