anyone else kinda hoping for an L? IMO this team needs to hit rock bottom so that this FO will finally get a clue....no better way than an L to one of the worst teams/losing 8 of 9

So Randle admits that playing the right way isn't being himself? I guess he should be commended for his self awareness... :o

Knicks lose this and it feels like the 'rock bottom' that inspires some movement from the FO but I am not confident in the moves they will pull off to help anything as far as playoff positioning and only ruin draft positioning.

The league needs to restart the bubble. Who am I even tuning in to watch? just a bunch of random dudes in blue and orange vs random dudes in red and white.

At least it didn't interrupt a good season for the Knicks. That would be so Knicks. Such a tough problem for the world.

I think it can be fixed tho if they return to some of the more strict 2020 protocols. players won't like it, but if it's between that and shutting down the season, gotta do it

I don't see the fix. Columbia U. just released a study that says Omicron is evading vaccines and boosters considerably.

The only solution is to void all the contracts that were signed since Covid.

Knicks only 3 games better than the Rockets, despite the Rockets tanking hard. I don't know whether to laugh or cry...
