Now that OG will be out let’s place our bets on which player who got 30 DNP’s will miraculously be asked to play 20+ minutes and be surprisingly more serviceable than thibs anticipated

Maybe that player should’ve been playing all along!

No, it's an L, no matter how you try to spin this. If he's out a few weeks, it'll be like last season where the idiot in chief drives the starters into the ground to make up for the loss.


Kat playing injured, now og out for how long. Saw this wave coming and we're called crazy. Now we're going to here the rationalizing and justification.


Towns hit his hand on the backboard and OG sprained his foot. How are you gonna blame that on minutes?

Not looking good. Usually, the first team to hit 100 wins. Praying for a turnaround here.

You don’t like Thibs anymore after he scaled OG minutes back?



He cut back Mikal's minutes, and in turn upped OG's minutes. You're trying so hard to find an out you're not even using reality, OG was playing 37.4 mpg over his last 10, which was 6th in the league.

yeah the achilles test is pretty easy

but any foot injury is not good. It can be nagging.

Losing in primetime in devastating fashion. Losing hope for the season.

Pretty easy to expose the Knicks on defense. Especially with OG out.

On the other end, thibs has no answers for the defensive scheme they are playing. Which is embarrassing.
