Bridges or George could have been a better addition?!

back then we had also IHart to add to the trade as a salary filler via sign and trade

Depends on the opponent. I didn’t trip when we lost our first game to Boston. It bothered me the way we lost, but first game, trophy night, against the reigning champs? That rolled right off. But losing to the Hawks and Pacers and Rockets after the moves were made and coming off the quality of team we had last year? Not a good look. So yeah, if we lose to the Bulls I’ll be upset, because we’re supposed to be contenders and they’re…. Not.

I’m with you too. Last night was a good win but I’m not satisfied. We have a long way to go still.

when everyone healthy and Brunson getting to his normal self and form we shall be good... we have both the qualities to play elite defense and offense in periods of the game and with that we can fill the void of having not a fixed identity on either side of the court...

Sixers were up for this game...besides- if we only played 6 players - we lose just like in Indy I definitely count this one.

The fact that they were up only means we are capable of losing to a 2-7 team. These are games we should be dominating and we’re just, not.

The refs were keeping them in the game.

Balanced officiating this would have been a 20-point blowout.

We overcame and still managed to blow them out.

Knicks have 4 guys playing at all-star level

Brunson is averaging 24 and 6 on 47/39/84 shooting splits
Towns is averaging 25 and 12 on 52/41/87 shooting splits

Last 9 games, you got Hart averaging a ridiculous 14/10/6 on 58/31/90 shooting splits

Last 6 games, you got OG averaging 20/5/3 (and 1.7 spg) on 52/49/88 shooting splits

However, I'm looking around the Eastern Conference and at least 12 Eastern Conference teams have guys putting up all-star numbers

Cleveland has 4 allstars in Mitchell, Garland, Mobley, and Allen

Boston has 3 in Tatum, Brown, and White

Even Indiana. You got Siakam, Turner, and even Mathurin all putting up better numbers than Haliburton

Orlando has Banchero out, but Franz Wagner might be deserving

Brooklyn not only has Cam Thomas, but Dennis Schroder out of nowhere is having the best year of his career

Detroit has both Cade Cunningham and even Jaden Ivey playing at a very high level (also turning the ball over a lot)

Atlanta has Trae Young, and out of nowhere Jalen Johnson averaging 19/10/5 (never heard of him). Even Dyson Daniels is averaging an insane 3.3 spg (also never heard of this guy)

Tyler Hero is averaging 23/5/5 so he might actually be an all-star for Miami this year. Jimmy and Bam aren't having good seasons by their standards

Vucevic is having the best season of his life in Chicago, and LaVine is back too

Milwaukee at their worst still has Giannis and Dame

Maxey is out and Philly has sucked, but he's still an all-star

The fans will just vote for whoever is popular and who they usually vote for.

Good win! Sixers have some of the most unlikable bums - Ebiitch, Lowry, Martin - so great to see them lose to us again

Having to go from watching a selfish chucker who never played defense to an all defense guy who plays team ball is still refreshing!

Another clear upgrade is that he dunks the ball so easily when he's at the rim or in transition that there's no trepidation to have about an anticlimactic, missed easy layup. His size and strength are a major asset for getting those easy baskets.

And that's without mentioning the defense and the shot selection as you brought up.

I didn't think he'd be this good.

Towns is now our leading scorer at 24.5ppg

This isn’t a championship team by a long shot, sorry to say. Towns has been really good, but we killed our vibe and chemistry. Hopefully they can manifest some new energy.

Good morning

Good morning r0b. Also glad we have a team leader in Brunson versus an empty stats chucker like your boy Lamelo who’s very selfish!

It’s such a massive upgrade on both ends. Very grateful for this trade every single day

KAT is pure greatness. He's a 10x better player than Randle, who is a very low IQ selfish player...the gap is not even close.

Something is up with Brunson man, i feel like he should be averaging 24ppg +

He has to get off the ball more and faster. He's doing too much.
