Pretty good intro for visiting Knicks – as the PA announcer gives the Knicks lineup the voice is drowned out by the sound of car horns and jackhammers and images of NYC. – 10:36 PM

Taj Gibson is out on the floor during warmups so looks like he’s available – but being that he hasn’t been in the rotation I imagine that doesn’t mean they’ll use him. – 10:31 PM

Mavs F Dorian Finney-Smith, fresh off shutting out Domantas Sabonis in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s win, is doing a phenomenal job on Donovan Mitchell (4-16 FG). – 10:05 PM

Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef
Have seen a few comments on Bulls falling to play-in. Not a reasonable fear at this point. Still 4.5 up on 7th-place Toronto, have winnable games vs. DET/CLE/SAC up next. Staying in 4 is important, but they’re still there, and still have opportunity to get tiebreaks vs. BOS/CLE – 10:00 PM

Will Barton (ankle) is pretty much going through his regular warmup right now. He’s out tonight but I don’t think he’s sidelined for long. Guessing he’s back Wednesday in Sacramento. – 8:19 PM
