Milwoki – we call it revenge game Delon Wright. Type of.
Knicks without Galin Bronson (ankle), and Miles McBraide (thigh) and KAM Payne (ankle), leaving the rising Tyler Coleik as the only real point guard available.
But Tom Theopodo, the coach, chose, starting with veteran Wright, who only played in garbage time since obtaining it from Pacz before the deadline, instead of Colik in Nix's 116-107 victory over Milwaukee on Friday night at the Veserf Forum.
Wright has rewarded his coach's decision, as he ended with 12 points in 30 minutes from the time of play, to a large extent the largest work burden with KNICKS.
“definitely [a good feeling]”I feel that I am every team I leave, and I always have a good game in the first game or the first time he played. I just wanted to keep this series.”
Thibodeau clearly preferred Wright's experience and defensive ability to distribute Kolek.
Kolek played 17 minutes and ended with five points and five decisive passes.
“His defense you can always rely on,” Thebodo said about Wright. “This is his strength, and he is not afraid. He is aggressive, and he knows how people play. I think he is reading the game well. I think we got a great goalkeeper.
“I was going back and forth [who to start]I was comfortable with both. Many of them depended on I was not quite sure of what they would start. Its size was a factor in that. But I was comfortable. Then you read the game like, “What do you need?
The Bucks coach Duke Reves was greatly praising the former Knicks Center Jericho SIMS.
Sims was an important contributor to Pacz after his Nix trade before the deadline. Nix acquired Wright from Milwoki as part of the trading of three teams.
“It was great for us,” said Refers before the match. “A great athlete, running on the ground. He was defending, recovery. He won some games for us with his presence. Certainly add a welcome. Surprise how good is.”
The average SIMS reached 15 minutes for each game in 14 games played with Bucks, scored 2.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 0.6 blocks per game.
He has played a useful role as a big man in the seat with Bobby Portis's comment, but he was marginalized after undergoing surgery to fix the torn ligament in his thumb.
It is expected to return to the qualifiers.
Payne was absent on Friday after being ankle in the loss of Nix 126-113 against Clippers on Wednesday.
McBraride missed his fourth consecutive game with the thigh bruise.
