Just awful man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Didn’t watch a minute of this series, but just scrolled back 20 pages to find this clip.

Hate to see it, but still… F Haliburton. Both father and son. Whether he comes back or not, I look forward to not seeing his punchable face or hearing his broken ass voice for a year. Now if only somebody can find the Epstein-Diddy tape on Reggie, please.


Love the cry on his face
Bum I love it
Him and his daddy cryin like bi***es

We'll see if it was the coach or the players this season


I'm just saying that Carlisle has been able to adjust to different rosters over the years. He doesn't just plug the personnel into his own rigid system. If you gave him this roster without Haliburton he would try to figure out the best system for what was available to him but i'm not expecting him to do that on the fly in game 7.

I liked having a team system built on defense, toughness, heart and with a pretty good offense when we had shooters. Now we'll try to find a coach that fits more finesse players with poor defense. Its rare you get a coach like Riley or Carlisle who can adapt to any roster.


But was a team that went from 1st to 11th to 19th to 9th to 13th on defense in the last 5 years built on defense? I feel like people act like the defense only slipped once KAT arrived or something. At one point they were starting Brunson, DDV, RJ and Randle just a season ago. That's not exactly a defensive juggernaut.

I would love to have seen what Carlisle would have attempted with the Knicks rosters over the last 5 years. From those younger teams to this year's team. I can't imagine it would be a consistently slow grind it out style.

East is wide open next season. NYK are Vegas favorites to come out of the east.

Just gotta nail the coaching hire and bring in some reliable vets to shore up the bench and locker room (Hortford? Trent?) and we’ll have a great chance. Can’t miss this opportunity.

We were the better team than the Pacers last year, they needed almost our whole starting lineup to be injured to squeak by us. Nobody here was really asking for Carlilse back then when he was whining about calls every game. This season we had a good chance to beat them but our bench is terrible and our team is probably worse than last season at full health.

To be clear TyKo plays more like Nash than TJ, TyKo is a passing guard that can shoot but not much defense, that's closer to Nash. TJ is a scoring guard, mostly in the paint not much from deep and tough defender for his size.

We can hope TyKo develops into the type of impact player TJ is but he doesn't play the same way, they're quite different.
