What the **** is he talking about Thanasis?
Funny thing is, at his best Turner was like a drunk man's Josh Hart.

I have confidence in the Knicks tonight b/c they bounced back well last year after that game 5 collapse vs PHI.

I Don't post much... but im coming in here to tell you guys, WE'RE GO WIN THIS SERIES!!. Don't let that anomaly of game 1 fool you. Knicks are the better team. We simply got complacent during the final minutes, which won't happen again. Lesson learned.... now its game on!! Halliburton is gonna regret that choke sign.

Shamelessly told a bold faced lie. Last time he changed a starting lineup and it wasn’t due to an injury it was when he finally started rose over Payton in the hawks series years ago after elfrid stank it up every game. That was the last game of the series and was too late at that point
If he removes hart from the starting lineup I would be surprised if it’s only when we’ve already lost 3. Otherwise the stubborn bozo will stick with what obviously isn’t working

We NEED OG to have a good game. That was probably the worst game I’ve seen from him as a Knick outside of that stretch he helped that 10-0 run while Brunson went to the bench
Him getting going makes this team so much more dangerous

Rick Carlisle changed the Mavs’ starting lineup in Game 4 of the 2011 NBA Finals against the Heat. From what I remember, it helped them win the series. This was to change the style of play and to rationalize the player rotation as Shawn Marion was playing too many minutes.
A lot of us have suggested the advantages of having Josh come off the bench is that he could lessen the minutes of OG and Mikal. Mitch has to start as he (and not any of our wingstop guys) is the only one good enough to cover the defensive deficiencies of our two all stars. It would have been ideal though if we had one more big that could enter the rotation. Some might say Precious but personally I would put in Hukporti as the Mitch understudy.

A suggestion, if you don't mind.
If you are going to watch the game, take a deep breath, count to ten and blow out all of that black smoke that is coming out of your ears.
I agree, Thibs is not it.
But we have a game tonight. Make it about the players, not Thibs. Fortunes change and you can still witness a success story tonight and in this series regardless of the coaching issues.
