by complaining the NBA league offices just like the Pacers and farm towns do when they get shook by losing to the Knicks.

Bickerstaff went behind the scenes unlike Carsile last year.

story of the 4th quarter can't sustain any momentum.

Just like regular season can’t string together multiple stops. Physically not able.

The crowd/fans deserved better than the effort this collective bunch of players gave them tonight.

Honestly, just hard to get into this team. They’re not a team you can be proud of, unlike last year’s squad.

This is why teams put their bigs on Hart, so they can take away everything else we do since the big can just guard space, and the coach is too stupid to take Hart out the game.


Who is going to replace his 4/5/6


The sad fact is no one. 8-)

I'm telling you, Brunson did an aweful job spear-heading the offense. Towns hardly saw the ball, OG hardly got to see the ball while hot. Brunson has to realize the talent he's got around him and pick his spots. Simple.

It's part of Thibs' old mindset: "Brunson doesn't need any help and not from the likes of Payne"

I think that is really how he thinks

I'm in serious talks (in my head) to not watch G3 or G4

I want the Knicks to lose this series so they can finally change their stupid starting lineup.

concerning thing is they missed a ton of open looks too. this could have been way uglier. still might end up a "blowout" loss.


And had it not been Cam's fluke shots that spurred and some suddenly inspired defense from the team in the 21-0 run, we'd be facing 0-2 hole going to Detroit

This reminds me of Lakers - Pistons 2004 Finals, Pistons were the underdogs, Lakers had the talent, but fell 0-1 and would have been 0-2 had it not been for Kobe's OT forcing 3 going back to Detroit

We're toast

Under a different, SLIGHTLY more competent coach I'm sure we'd take the C's to 6-7 games with the talent we have...

Knicks not playing well but these free throws really are the difference

SF: Trey Murphy | Trent | Anderson | Simone

Such an easy adjustment, take Hart out, put Mitch in. They can't just leave Mitch the way they're doing with Hart.

Thibs back to the 6.5 man rotation I see
