sent to G league did not travel. They want him to develop on ball skills and give him opportunities to do so. He won't have that chance for about 2 years in the NBA.

Refs might as well wear Knicks jerseys

Is that what they said or are you assuming?

They're playing a full-squad contender level Knicks team without 2 of they're top level scorers in Coby and Ayo. They still manage to hang around. There's a big difference watching this group trailing vs. previous year's group with Zach and Demar.

You realize watching my team get fouled and beatup without a call will piss you off. It is not an occasional call.

Now the ref will try to even out the calls.

I'm actually excited to watch the next 5 games vs high projected teams. It takes a perfect game for the Knicks to put this team away.

2 years is what i said but long term is what was said from the announcers.

And they're still playing tough. Bull hit those last two threes, it's a 10pt game with 4 minutes left, after all the non calls.

I meant about the on ball skills.

12 point game. 2 mins left.

We defend and hit a 3 and this is a whole different story

I can’t be unhappy with this.

Knicks absolutely unconscious from 3 but still a lot of good performances and moments throughout the game. You can’t win every game, sometimes teams just play well.

We can enjoy watching Giddey's rise to greatness as a Bull.

Yes what the announcers conveyed but I interpreted being both offensively and defensively.

Knicks played this game like it was game 7 of the finals.
Refs played this game like they all had a grand on NY

On to the next one.

It would have been hard without Ayo but it just got alot worse with the refs and them making an insane amount of 3s.

Sometimes this kind of game just happens. All you can do is just move on to the next one.

All these guys do it. I have teams I do not watch.

Knicks
Lakers
OKC

I cannot watch this nonsense.

They played fine, two of our best scorers out. NY was over 60% from 3 for most of the game.

This too. Brunson played 32, KAT 36 mins, OG 34 and Bridges 34 min in a game where they had a huge lead and were shooting lights out.

Yeah I am not even stressing this game. Knicks needed a lot of help and still almost blew it.

There is only so much you can do when you are playing 5v8 and missing Coby/Ayo.

I had us splitting with the Knicks from the get-go. Been saying it all week. We split with them and the worst case scenario is we drop the next four against some really tough match ups and go into Detroit 5-5.

Oh no ESPN may call us frauds! who tf cares?
