Can’t she twerk while she’s painting?

in this case most of the misses are C&S...that is suppose to be what he does well.

Absolutely

We could trade benches with the Thunder and somehow Thibs wouldn't find use for Isaiah Joe or Aaron Wiggins or Jaylin Williams (who just dropped a triple double yesterday), or Kenrich Williams

So yesterday they rested SGA, JDub, Dort, IHart, and were forced to start 4 bench players (Joe, Wiggins, Dillon Jones, Jaylin)... and they played KWilliams, and 3 other guys I didn't know exist until this game (Adam Flagler with 5 pts, 4 rebds, 4 assists in 23 mins, Branden Carlson with 16 pts, 6 rbds, 2 steals, 2 blocks in 23 mins, and Alex Ducas with 3 pts, 4 rebds in 14 mins)

If Thibs had been in Daignault's shoes where he was forced to start 4 bench players, and had to dig out 4 end of bench players to come off the bench he would have lost his mind

I posted about the teams lack of identity earlier. We have none. So the rotation players let alone the end of the bench players have no idea what their role is. We have no clear offensive or defensive foundation to fall back on. It's just a bunch of kids running around setting pics and hoping something comes out of it. Quite reminiscent of my old days playing with my friends under the evening lights.

I just don't care anymore. I guess I am an honorary Knick.

4-21 3P FGs

16-45 FGs

basically this team showed its hand as nothing more than a middling team. it’ll take a 2023 playoff miami heat miracle run to show me differently

I'm sorry but, this is a HUGE indictment on Thibs. We can't find minutes for anyone and other teams use our throw away players to beat us up. :lol:

WTF?

But you veel remain in your seat and not move for the entire game. Correct?

I want to go back to last season when Divo would be our 2nd option and OG was just filling in with 14-16 pts, less points but they were timely points that demoralized teams

I'm in a minority here that I wouldn't have done the KAT trade... mainly because of Divo who I wouldn't have traded for ANYone other than Giannis or Luka

KAT's defense somehow downgraded our team when his offense is much superior to Ju's offense

I think JuJu would find a role here, his physicality and mentality were crucial factors in making us a tough team to play against, if he didn't work out, could always trade him elsewhere

But Divo was the dealbreaker for me

they had 43 last game. 47 against heat. 44 in 2nd half against warriors. 48 against blazers. 41 2nd half against clippers. 39 2nd half against lakers (with brunson). 47 2nd half against warriors (with brunson). 45 against heat (with brunson). 49 2nd half against 76ers (with brunson). 43 against celtics (with brunson).

offense has been an issue for awhile now... even before brunson's injury.

So then Thibs must be doing a great job to them winning so many games

They scored 46 the first time they played the Hornets with Brunson.

KAT 14pts in the first half. Our All-Star center can't muster more than 14pts against the Charlotte Hornets frontcourt. Thibs is pathetic. He duped everyone into thinking KAT was an All-Star because Brunson was killing it. Take away Brunson and this entire roster looks like the Charlotte Hornets...without the hustle.

robillionaire · Post #195 » by **robillionaire** » Fri Mar 21, 2025 12:21 am

Doodeuce has 0 points in 17 mins for those counting at home

That’s a 28 point pace

This isn't just a roster issue, this is a coach being figured out and having no plan B. Since the ASB we're 27th in the NBA, nobody with a straight face can say the Nets, Mavs, Raptors, Bulls, Heat, Sixers have more offensive talent than us.

I'd like to have seen how it would have gone if we ran it back, but would have needed to replace iHart with a C if you don't get KAT.

i feel like this roster is actually under performing comparable to its talent. as someone stated earlier we really should be at 50 wins rn with the celtics and cavs

Must lead the league in under 50 point halves
