PG: Not fun

[Jalen Bluntson]

Got absolutely annihilated last night. Got home very late. Slept through this one! On to the next one!!

$800 minimum ticket to watch that crap today. Feel bad for those that wasted their hard earned money.

This will be the 2nd All-Star Thibs created, that will look like utter $h!t when he's no longer a Knick. Randle was an All-Star his entire tenure under Thibs...a dud elsewhere. That is his trajectory.

Randle looks great this playoffs.

Brunson, Hart, and Mikal all citing a lack of urgency (mentioned in separate interviews). So I’m sure guys spoke about this in the locker room. They’re all using the same verbiage.

I hope they are just saying things to just say things because its been the same thing 3 straight games...celtics just made shots tonight

our offense

45 pts at half in game 1
41 pts at half in game 2
46 pts at half in game 3

I don't think it has to do with urgency...we simply don't run quality offense. Go back to DET series even.

we wait to the end for brunson to bail us out. But its terrible offense.

These folks are trying to inject excitement into the game by hype posting

Another step in the NBA’s transition to WWF

Great way to flush a quality product down the toilet

Thibs has done nothing to help win these games and everything to help lose them. His coaching has been abysmal like it has most of the season.

[mpharris36]

this has been our offense since teams started putting there wings on KAT....its now the 2nd round in the playoffs and we have no counter outside to grind out a win.

[8516knicks]

Mitch couldnt work on anything while he was rehabbing?

LIke, oh I don't know, shooting free throws? If you suck so bad at it go to the Rick Barry method.

Someone needs to guard Pritchard.

im less concerned about the defense...

[Wildcat]

Fun Fact: Knicks have only lead 12 out of 149 minutes played in the 2nd round.

[HEZI]

We just can’t shoot

today.

and we were defended like hell. as we should have been.

Especially today but last game too. They did tighten up their defense but I think we still had plenty of missed opportunities

Predictable garbage offense. Defense that plays directly into the Celtics advantage. Winning those first two games in miracle comeback fashion is only prolonging the inevitable. We may still pull this series out but, the Knicks have looked bad the entire postseason.

[HEZI]

We just can’t shoot

I think it's more we don't get clean looks. The Knicks half-court offense has been hideous this entire playoffs. I'm not even talking clutch time. Just getting into a normal action should not be this hard.

I think we do get clean looks but just haven’t shot well. Today was tougher for sure and Celtics did ramp up their intensity but I still think we had good opportunities and just missed.

[Kampuchea]

Who gets next game thread?

Another Fun Fact: Knicks starting unit is a -6.9 (or something like that) in the playoffs.

[K_ick_God]

Well at least Tom got off the Villanova joke … he seemed happy with himself

No, we don't. Scramble plays that devolve into ISO ball are not clean looks. The majority of these 3's were head fakes-step back-shoot instead of taking the initial open shot.

it's never felt like this lineup really works together that well. there's problems on both ends of the court.
