Isaiah Hartenstein on how the Knicks will defend Joel Embiid in the playoffs:

Tobias Harris talks about the challenges of defending Jalen Brunson:

'We obviously have gone against him, but our hands are full. We'll be able to figure it out.'

'They're a great, JB's a great player, but at the end of the day, it's gonna be Philadelphia vs. New York. We've just got to come ready to play and stop them.'

'They kicked our tails in the regular season, so it's time to go in there and fight.'

Tyrese Maxey shares his thoughts on the Knicks and their first-round matchup with the 76ers:

Josh Hart was asked if he looks over towards Tom Thibodeau after making mistakes:

'I don't really look at him too much. I hear him. I damn sure hear him' 😂

'We're not stressed about, we want this matchup, we want that matchup. We don't duck any smoke and we just want to play whoever we play.'

- Donte DiVincenzo

Heat don't have a 'great matchup for Brunson unless you’re telling me Butler is guarding him for the last 6-7 minutes of the game. He’s not going to guard him for 48 minutes.”
