Opening Night Game Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!: New York Knicks vs. Cleveland Cavaliers 10/22/25 7:00pm

if huk proves reliable, they should trade yabu at the deadline for something more useful

Oreos

Yabu ate em all

He needs to lose weight. He needs to stop eating out

[god shammgod]

Mitchell needs to get out of Cleveland. Wasting his prime there

mobley is a good player but he still hasn't really developed into an offensive option that can be relied on. not sure he ever will.

[Wildcat]

Didn't fold when the lead was dwindling. KAT needs to be more serious, though.

[8516knicks]

Not impressed by Cleveland bench. Let too many valuable guys go. Ball seems a non-factor.

[TKKnicks1]

Brown doing a solid job shuffling players in and out considering its game 1. Had some questionable lineups but gotta go through the motions to see what works and what doesnt.

[CharlesOakley]

11 players played so far and we are still winning. Imagine that.

[Butch718]

This is why Thibs is out of a job. You’re telling me that you couldn’t find at least 5 mins per game for Huk, Shamet and Kolek throughout the season to see what we had on the bench?

That being said, I feel like they should be up 20. Can’t come out of the half timid.

[Capn'O]

there's probably a happy medium between playing 8 guys and playing 12

i've always felt 9-10 is good for the modern nba pace

I don't think there's an issue going deep early and in blowouts. But I think you're right that that's your for serious lineup.

He was literally one of the few positives for them on offense in the first half. He wasn’t the problem.

[MrDollarBills]

Seems like Mikal and OG are gonna take off under Mike brown

Monica was saying this earlier on YouTube. This is great

Yeah this is really great. On the other end, KAT seems kinda off. Hopefully he can figure it out.

If Hukporti can keep showing promise as a Kevon Looney type center I think we just offer Milwaukee KAT and whatever other draft picks are available and say take it or leave it.

He got Tim Duncan comparisons he more like Myles Turner

Great 1st Half!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[spree8]

This is so refreshing. What a stark contrast from last season

[offense]

sugar hill gang half time

[Wildcat]

Never thought I'd see the day where we ran an 11 man rotation.

[GettinitDone]

Elsewhere Thibs' head just exploded after learning we played 11 guys at the half

Looks like Mike gonna use a lot of Kolek off the bench instead of Clarkson, he gonna love going to Mikal offensively and for KAT to shoot more 3s...

But I think unfortunately cap's production gonna decline a little this season, still all star/ all nba though

[TKKnicks1]

I know Mitch is a defensive beast but for some reason I just feel more at ease when Huk is out there.

This rotation seems to indicate Clarkson not getting any minutes when Hart is available.
