The experiment may not be long

You think they’d fire brown this early???!!!!

[TKKnicks1]

KAT put up all his shots in the first quarter? Is he done contributing now? What kinda joke is this to have your 1a player being a decoy?

[3toheadmelo]

need steve mills to pop out with a press conference immediately after the game

[Kampuchea]

[Guano]

brunson on this team

Taking a paycut for this

[Red Vines]

We're a soft and weak team outside Brunson & OG. Hart isn't soft but he's basically disabled.

[mpharris36]

there just isn't a level of intensity right now...its even good defenders that are getting picked apart.

like KAT and Brunson you know

but ive seen mikal get beat and OG get beat and deuce get beat...

hart has played and made zero impact.

[jvsimonetti0514]

All this learning curve and experimentation stuff is so dumb. Cavs installed a new system last year and came out like game busters. If a system actual fits the roster there wouldn’t be a learning curve.

[ctorres]

Im all about playing the bench but this constant shuffling of lineups is crazy. How are players supposed to get a rhythm?

We are trying to please everyone and play 11 guys to start the season

Ideal rotation IMO is 9 players

However, we have starter-level played like Deuce and Josh coming off the bench who can handle 6th man minutes

[Galvationknicks]

How like every team in the NBA seemed to get better lol. Wtf happened?

[Bob Ross]

I think I'd let Towns walk rather than extend him

I mean worse case scenario is to trade Towns for veteran rotation players and you put the ball in Brunson's hands. I would still try to get Giannis if this doesn't work

you can't just let him walk for sure. you need that salary. but i also don't believe in mikal as the 2nd option on a contender. i wanted kd for him but that's over. i think someone mentioned lebron which at his age is rough but i think i'm with it

I think you can let him walk. Teams with guys like Aller always figure something out. We signed Brunson when Woj said it was impossible

[TeddySakKnicks]

Is it too late to bring Thibs back? There is zero effort on defense and Brown prides himself on not running any plays on offense.

[mpharris36]

like wtf is hart doing just getting beat off the dribble and looking for help

like no dude guard your own man

[Najeem27]

Everyone is a step behind their man

[Gravy]

Wow they sat KAT for the end of the 2nd

[Nicnac]

A realist. This is not a team built or designed to play like the Celtics. We are not and have not been a three pt shooting team. If you want threes. Design PLAYS for towns and jb. Otherwise cuts and pick and roles fit this team

It's very lazy coaching and I think it's for brown to try to hold onto his job bc it's the nba way to leave it to the players.

It will be a long season. Barely make the playoffs if management accepts this.

Game 20. Fire the coach or make him coach

And the lOW IQ on this team doesn't work

And jb needs to average at least 9 assists or GIVE UP THE BALL!!

AND THIBS WASNT THE ANSWER!

[Guano]

A bounce pass to mitch in traffic is dumb as hell

[Najeem27]

There’s the mitch rim protection u guys want lmaoo

[TKKnicks1]

Turning this ish off. Happy Halloween fam. We all got tricked tonight thinking this team was a legit contender.
