Brandon Rahbar @BrandonRahbar
The Lakers this season are exactly why the Clippers’ picks in a few years will be so valuable to the Thunder. – 8:21 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
The lead-up to that Fournier corner 3 is EXACTLY what an ideal Randle post-up possession should look like. Double comes over. Randle reads perfectly. He flings the ball back out, then it swings around to the weak side. That was a beautiful possession. – 8:21 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
If there’s one major takeaway from this performance, it’s that the Knicks should shoot 60 percent from the field every game. – 8:18 PM
Kyle Goon @kylegoon
AD checking back in. He played 7:50 in the first quarter. Looking like he’ll play a little less than usual tonight with his flu-like symptoms. – 8:17 PM
Stefan Bondy @SBondyNYDN
The Knicks are running circles around the Lakers who somehow are playing older than their advanced median age. – 8:16 PM
Bob Garcia @bgarciaivsports
Knicks have 51 pts and there is still 7 minutes left in the 2nd quarter – 8:16 PM

Brian Mahoney @briancmahoney
Knicks either really good tonight, or Lakers deciding their revenge for NBA suspending LeBron is to make sure everyone will change the channel at halftime. It’s now 49-27. – 8:13 PM

What is going on here, Lakers down 49-27…Still 8 min left in the half… – 8:12 PM

Steve Popper @StevePopper
Frank Vogel is really going to have to rethink this, “Let me have Dwight Howard guard Randle” plan. – 8:03 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
That first quarter was as if all the Knicks’ problems were gone.
Worried about Barrett’s slump? How’s 3-4 from deep?
Concerned about Fournier? How’s three 3s from him?
Want aggressiveness from Randle? He dominated.
First unit took total control, too. Ideal start for them. – 8:02 PM
Jovan Buha @jovanbuha
First quarter: Knicks 36, Lakers 20
A brutal first 12 minutes for LA, who started off in a 10-0 hole and trailed by as many as 21 points. The Knicks drilled seven 3-pointers and are one pass ahead of LA’s defense. Malik Monk provided a late spark with 10 points off the bench. – 8:01 PM
Brad Turner @BA_Turner
Lakers played no defense in the first, allowing NY to shoot 60% from the field, 53.8% from three. – 8:00 PM
Alan Hahn @alanhahn
So what do we think of the #Knicks City Edition jerseys this year? – 8:00 PM
Steve Popper @StevePopper
Knicks up 36-20 after the first quarter. The Lakers have…issues. – 8:00 PM
Brian Mahoney @briancmahoney
Malik Monk gets the last five points of the first quarter after the Knicks opened a 21-point lead. New York leads 36-20. – 8:00 PM
Tommy Beer @TommyBeer
Fournier and RJ Barrett drilling’s 3-pointers.
Obi catching oops.
Randle doing good Randle things.
This is what Leon Rose has in mind – and what Knicks fans wanted to see.
Knicks up 36-20 after 1Q – 8:00 PM
Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
Just about the only bright spot for LAL in a rough 1st Q was @Malik Monk, who hit 4 of 5 FG’s off the bench for 9 points.
Nonetheless, LAL trail 36-20, allowing 57% FG’s, and 7 of 14 3’s from the Knicks. – 8:00 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
Through one quarter, the Knicks lead the Lakers 36-20.
• Randle 10-6-3
• Fournier 11 pmts, 3-5 3Ps
• Barrett 9 & 4, 3-4 3Ps
• Monk 10 pts
Knicks 7-14 from 3. – 8:00 PM
Kyle Goon @kylegoon
After Q1: Knicks 36, Lakers 20.
Next to no urgency for the shorthanded Lakers. – 7:59 PM
Dave McMenamin @mcten
Asked Frank Vogel on Monday what the Lakers will have to do to continue the spirit they found in DET for NYK game. Vogel: “I just think we have to bottle up the determination that we played with down the stretch in that fourth quarter.” Tonight? Down 36-20 after 1st Q – 7:59 PM
Alan Hahn @alanhahn
Man, Julius Randle throws a LOT of grenades. – 7:59 PM

Russell Westbrook is killing the Lakers. – 7:57 PM
Steve Popper @StevePopper
Melo got banged up guarding Randle – never went up on offense, so you know it must be serious. – 7:57 PM
Steve Popper @StevePopper
Lakers go zone with their eldercare lineup – and Fournier buries a three over it – Knicks up 31-15. – 7:55 PM
Stefan Bondy @SBondyNYDN
Thibs going with a Julius Randle and Obi Toppin front court early tonight. Toppin guarding Dwight Howard. – 7:54 PM

Tommy Beer @TommyBeer
In their last home game – vs. Houston on Saturday – the Knicks scored a grand total of 13 points in the entire first quarter.
NY has scored 26 points in the first 8+ minutes tonight vs. the Lakers – 7:51 PM

The Lakers have struggled to get good looks on offense, hitting only 5 of 16 FG’s, and turned it over 3 times, as they trail 23-11 early at Madison Square Garden. – 7:49 PM

Most fans standing and cheering as Kemba goes to the line to shoot free throws. And also, as Carmelo enters the game. – 7:49 PM

It’s two minutes in, and two notable things have happened:
1) The Lakers went down 10-0
2) A Knicks fan lifted up his jersey to reveal a “BING BONG” sweater – 7:40 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
Darryl Strawberry is at the Knicks game. I’m assuming he’s the Clint Frazier replacement. – 7:38 PM
Brian Mahoney @briancmahoney
Knicks race to a 10-0 lead over Lakers. DeAndre looks just as immobile as last season in Brooklyn. Davis is playing sick. Westbrook has two turnovers. And LeBron is out. Otherwise, everything is great for the visitors. – 7:37 PM
Tommy Beer @TommyBeer
Feels like first time the Knicks have made an opposing coach call a timeout to stop momentum in the first quarter this season – 7:37 PM
Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
One of Stu’s 3 keys tonight on @SpectrumSN was not to fall behind by 10+ early.
And yet, LAL allowed a 10-0 Knicks spurt to begin the game, boosted by a pair of turnovers, plus an offensive rebound leading to the 2nd NYK 3. – 7:37 PM
Steve Popper @StevePopper
Knicks are up 10-0 on the Lakers. Maybe it’s Carmelo time? – 7:37 PM

Dave McMenamin @mcten
Frank Vogel says Anthony Davis woke up with a low-grade fever and will warm up at MSG and see if he feels good enough to play against the Knicks. – 6:04 PM
Brad Turner @BA_Turner
AD woke up with fever and is questionable for Lakers vs Knicks, said Frank Vogel. – 6:03 PM

Frank Vogel said that Anthony Davis “wants to play” tonight, but just doesn’t know if he’ll play yet. – 6:03 PM
