It really isn't a moral victory, they didn't have Horford and Brown only played 21 minutes. If they're healthy it will not be a competitive series against them, it's 4-1 type of series if not a sweep.

I'd rather we have heartbreaking losses now than in the playoffs but this is tough. Zero reason not to foul Tatum to send him to the line. We have very good defensive rebounders in KAT and Mitch.

Why is mikal even touching the ball at the end of OT

He was scared of the ball all night

But that's weeds it should have never got there cause not fouling Tatum was the game. Under no circumstances should that shot have been allowed. Terrible trash coaching. He failed his players.

Duece should’ve been in the game in OT. Josh was a liability late

Mikal’s lack of strength is glaring. Gets knocked off of his spot offensively and defensively. Weak!

Josh’s lack of focus is good for at least 2 turnovers a game. We need to pick up a wing that pushes him to 6th man and 25 minutes per game

We’re not beating them in the playoffs unless Tatum gets hurt.

Moral victories are for losers

This would have been up there if not the best feel good win of the season and they blew it.

Thibs sucks but all those missed free throws added up. Losing a player on an inbound in OT was embarrassing.

Get it together Knicks.

WE HAD THEM, THEN WE BLEW IT!!!

A simple foul at the end of regulation would have won us the game.
Thanks, Thibs!

.

Butter-fingers at the end of OT.
Thanks, Mikal!

The game tells you how to play and my foot tells me it wants to make impact with Thibs’ face

god shammgod · Post #52 » by **god shammgod** » Wed Apr 9, 2025 2:28 am

the good news is supposedly brown's knee is not expected to be better for the playoffs. we just have to hope that brunson gets back in time.

Thibs for not calling for a foul on that last defensive possession in the 4th, and Bridges, for just having an all around horrible game. I would rather have Dante back in a heartbeat over this bum. Like this dude just disappears against good teams and his care free attitude can just **** all the way off.

This dude does not exemplify what NYers look for in a player.

Mikal was going to be the reason we closed them out in the 4th with huge buckets but loser HC is ancient and with all the 3's in today NBA doesn't foul up 3 with under 10 seconds.

Its on the coach....and if he doesn't take the blame for the loss theb f*ck him.

Put your players in position to win the game!

I completely agree with this. Thibs is a goofy ass coach. He constantly put his players in the worst positions.

But OG and Mikal not exempt tonight. They have to be better. These are the matchups we got them for. They need to be better on both sides of the ball.

trading for mikal might be the worst trade in knicks history

To be fair it wasn't the best pass from KAT. A horrible situation though. :banghead:

the players didn't know the foul or not? How do you not know

what does this loser do at tarrytown all day long...he supposedly never leaves?

they don't even know up 3 less than 10 second situations?

How long will it take Mike Malone to build that continuity and chemistry?

Can everyone just admit the anti-Thibs crowd was right?
