PG: Thibs B Gone

[robillionaire]

Well damn looks like I missed a horrible game.

In other news meLo is on to some sht. These things are incredible. Friend I went hiking with had em and she was pushing em like they were crack so I caved. She wasn't lying. They were so damn good. Highly recommended.

I didn’t watch either. I’ve only watched one game since Brunson got hurt. We’re a lottery team without him.

And I tried to tell you about them nerd clusters lol

For most things you're unreliable - but I should have trusted you when it's about candy.

And yeah, it's just hard to care with Brunson out. Teams a mess. The Portland game was fun but whatever the team isn't serious even with Brunson. But I don't see him coming back 100 so this season feels like it's wrapped.

I started on these last year and complimented melo over it and then got high blood sugar and had to stop eating candy so make your peace with the world once you get on these things

[robillionaire]

We didn’t win a single game after he quit starting Payton. He started game 2 and we won. 0-3 and 3 blowouts after that. Rose played badly because he wasn’t coming in fresh off the bench anymore. Bringing him in as a 6th man was objectively better. This is an example of fans getting their way and it didn’t work. Same would be true with running Dadiet out there

He started game 2 which we won and was a minus 7 while he played 5 minutes wtf are we talking about here rob.

That replacing him wasn't a magic bullet because Derrick Rose actually couldn't handle a bigger load than he had.

Payton did suck pretty bad. But I try to remind myself a large part of the animosity to him was by people who were upset Frank wasn’t playing. That was the primary impetus not just strategic reasons, which again had zero success when implemented. But anyway that’s all ancient history now

Who cares what your doctor says, eat all the nerd clusters you want!!!

The Knicks were 2-3 without Brunson last year (if you count the 47 second game). They're like 4-4 this year. Lets also try not to overreact to confirm biases here either.

That’s true but we’d won 3 of the last 4 without him before this. And blew out Miami and didn’t look half bad. It was reasonable to expect to win these two games and we got annihilated. The rigors of the road trip travel might be getting to them though. No way to sugar coat these bad losses

The good news we got is that they’re expecting Brunson back so at least there’s a puncher’s chance of winning a playoff series because this team without him very likely will be one and done. Udonis Haslem wasn’t lying

oh wait so you just expect to make changes in the middle of a playoff series and they immediately pay off?

crazy I thought this was a video game where you can just put a new guy in and they play well. Um how about you recognize during the season that Payton was horrible...start trying out new starting lineups and see if someone works so that you have time to actually work with the new group instead of pulling the plug in the middle of a playoff series.

Its like you guys have a built in excuse for thibs for everything.

IQ played less than 20 minutes a game that year...he could have worked him into a more prominent role but he was a rookie and thibs is stubborn.

I also contend Frank would have been able to help us more that year since he was hitting his 3 ball but not trying to derail

How do you justify having a guy start the entire year than justify basically pulling the plug on him in the playoffs...that is absolute comedy to try to defend that.

[prophet_of_rage]

People don’t even talk ball anymore it’s just blaming Thibs for everything

This place might be more unhinged now than the Frank years and thats saying a lot.

Yea it’s really bad here now. Sad.

Look to the top.

Not I but the people screaming for Payton's head did. I knew no change was going to make a difference because Payton was the best of what we had which was trash at pg.

Thibs gave in to the fans complaints. That's what happened. Fans don't know chit, though.

Why bother entertaining it

[spree8]

Only about 1 month left until Thibs is gone

Well that was part of his analysis. He said if Brunson doesn’t come back. Unless I heard wrong

[Gravy]

Why can't both Thibs and certain players be the problem? Why do we always have to take one side and debate one over the other?

Because it's easier to think there is a quick fix. New York impatience.

Remember when we blamed Woodson's schemes for not making Bargs, JR Smith and Felton into a championship team. Everyone was so happy he was fired like he was holding them back lol

btw when did DDV become that ultra tough guy that we are lacking? because he yelled at rick brunson in preseason?

I been saying this is the 2014 Knicks all over again

[Reign23]

If this doesn't turn around ASAP, there is a very high chance that a first rd match up versus a good Detroit team could send us home early.

Right now I don't see any way we beat them looking like this. Back to back blowouts against lottery teams is really bad.

This is all shorthand for “if Brunson doesn’t come back(at 100%) because clearly it’s a night and day difference of what this team is with him gone. Plus the drop off from him to our backup guards (deuce isn’t even a real PG and scam Payne) is insane. And please nobody bring up the rookie g leaguer like he’s gonna save the season

thank you. whole board clamoring for this poor man's jimmer fredette ass motherf*cker every game like that's the answer.

I guess you speaking of Tyler Kolek here? I don't think anybody is really w/o trolling saying that he is the saviour or anything, but let me ask you this:
Why draft an older guy and sign him to a long term deal above the minimum for 2nd round picks if you don't even give him a few minutes with Brunson out and Payne struggling af? why aren't you signing a guy to the minimum(like Hukportis deadl) and get further under the second apron if you are not playing him anyway?
