Pac scored 25 the other night in Westchester


I meant to add, Pac hit seven 3 pointers which I thought was good news. The kid can shoot


His size and strength could be an asset next year.

Brunson can be that guy. He put a greater emphasis on facilitating for a several game stretch this season and we looked really good when he did. His assist numbers were up those games.


Agree


If we ran an actual offense that focused on getting good shots it would literally make a world of difference.

Tom is a dinosaur. I wanna see motion and ball movement, this team has the talent to play elite basketball


If you maximized our offense it would at least create a better differential to compensate for any defensive issues we may have

He needs to sit. I don't understand what this staff is doing.


We've seen guys play after looking injured only to be kept out of subsequent games. It begs the question of why wait until after the game to make those assessments?


I'm not gonna rag on the medical staff because this team has been fairly healthy, but I don't like how Thibs doesn't protect his players.

Thibs does far better against Doc than he does against younger coaches.

He's still very raw and he's young, but at least he has talent. He might not be a Frank or a Knox and could turn into something
