I don't think Randle is even remotely healthy. That fall in Game 2...he's not right man.

Something isn't right. Glad Obi is stepping up.

It's like he's hesitant to attack the paint. I find it hard to believe that Mobley's length is impacting him like that when he's looking a step slower and isn't even trying to draw contact

Exactly. He's slower than he's been all year. So he has to think and that's messing with his three.

I think New York officially won the non-trade.

Knicks really clowned mavericks since KP trade . That trade is starting bear fruit

That trade been bearing fruit. Mavs still owe us **** even after getting rid of the "best person" in that trade

[Reign23]

oh and btw. at least IQs contract will be a lot cheaper than we would have thought

[nyknicks09]

Great must team win!

RJ, Hart, and JB are in playoffs mode!

Our defense was superb on Donovan Mitchell

[Ewings2ndcousin]

I really would love for NY to win it in on Wednesday but fact is the ain't winning sh*! in NY!!

I can’t believe Thibodeau benched Randle the entire 4th for Obi. This was a historic moment. It’s actually incredible. Thibs actually made an adjustment and went away from his favorite player to get a win. This was the single biggest reason we won this game.

Obi’s energy on both ends replaced Julius terrible play and attitude and ignited the team to victory. It’s a beautiful thing. What a great day.

He risked the WrATH OF KAHN RANDLE.

[Luv those Knicks]

Thibs grew BALLS finally!

Hopefully Randle raises his game. Obi played very well in his stead.
Mostly a great game.

Can‘t sleep now.

Ps - MORE DEUCE!

This is why they can't trade Obi. I don't think they can trade anyone from their young core. Maybe Sims.

Off-season will be interesting. They still have 2 expiring contracts they could flip, but I don't want to give up much from their young players.

[ScienceOfLosing]

even from a big critic of thibs like me -- thomas did good today benching julius when he doesnt have it

kudos to the old man

Wait, Thibs made an adjustment? I'm going to have to DL this game later tonight or early tomorrow AM and see this wizardry for myself!

Yes, but I‘m gonna have to watch the game again to make sure I‘m not dreaming.

Deuce shut down everyone for 5 minutes and Thibs pulled him.

[KnixtapeH20]

Mitchell Robinson is the most important player on this team outside of Brunson


Think about how many of yall had an issue giving Mitch his contract. I just don't ever wanna hear Mitch slander again, he has been flat out DOMINANT

[TerrenceClarke]

RJ serving up a lot of Sunday crow!

Deuce with some big minutes

Brunson is a superstar

Hart is everywhere

Mitch beasting in the paint

Glorious!

I have my hot sauce ready...

rj played 2 great games. julius needs to get over whatever mental sh*t he's going through. we're gonna need him eventually.

We keep winning without Randle, is our roster just that much better or is Thibs just that good?

I think its both but make no mistake we need reg season Randle back to go anywhere in round 2. We're lucky Donovan Mitchell had an equally bad game

[MrDollarBills]

Thibs' testicles grew about 20 center meters when he benched Randle.

Rumor is that they're so big that they're Brian Daboll sized now.

[Spree2Houston]

Remember when the sky was falling after game 2 in the postgame thread? Yeah pull that thread up. Crow needs to be served to some lol

[Zenzibar]

BANG!

They playoffs is where you earn your money and RJ has earned every bit of his extension these last 2 games

Don't usually pay any mind to SAS, but he was right at half-time that Randle needed to take it to the rack.

And yet his handle was sloppier than usual and even that was not an adjustment Randle seemed able to make today.

At least he was lit the first game, but 3 poor games in a row is a warning sign that Randle may have the playoff yips again.

I don't think Obi is a Randle replacement really because they're completely different players and Obi can't play bully ball, but Obi seems to step up when the spotlight is on him. There's something to that.

[drekwins]

few of ya'll said it was over after we went down in the 3rd lol

GREAT WIN .

I don’t think anyone thought that Thibs had the balls to bench Randle

[F N 11]

Thibs this game

1) Not taking out Brunson because we already lost rhythm.
2) Benching Randle
3) Taking out IQ for Hart even though his defense was good
