Need to start McBride 2nd half. We need more offense.
Fire Thibs!

Perk just called it. Switch the PnR, abandon drop coverage.
Thibs is really out of touch.

Why wouldn’t you? Don’t the Knicks have one of the better records in the league and have a need at backup SF?
Why would I when I can only score at random times throughout the game and there’s a high chance I won’t play because the coach doesn’t “trust me”

They will come out flat in the 3rd.
There’s nothing I’ve seen tonight to suggest otherwise. No semblance of a smooth offense, Thibs being outcoached and the defense is atrocious.
I am disappointed with the lack of focus tonight. It’s the second week in a row in which the lights have been too bright for this team.
F that national broadcast.

Are you fans of the team or the player?

The fact he keeps a drop coverage against this team after they hit 39573 threes against us the first time we played them says everything about him.

And KAT is clearly playing hurt.
But yeah. "Minutes police". Meanwhile Cleveland and Boston will coast to the NBA finals.

That why I’m hoping Mitch eventually works his back into the starting lineup. Our starting 5 would have legitimate size.

Re: Game Thread: New York Knicks vs Boston Septics Sat, Feb 08, 2025 8:30pm
This team is not ready folks. National game and our All-Star (Towns) looks like dog **** vs, Queta (wait...who?). Josh Hart looks shook, and Bridges ain't doing NOTHING! Meanwhile, Celtics clicking on all cylinders.
We have slow, dumb bigs - they have slow smart bigs.
We have small guards - they have tall guards.
They are hitting shots in rhythm of their offense - we can't even run an offense that would get guys open shots. \
Knick are not ready by a long mile.

Cmon bro Knicks fg% in paint is abysmal …that’s not Thibs
That is Thibs, you don't play a KAT, Precious and Hart lineup together. That gives the opponents 2 different players they don't need to really respect from three, so they can guard Hart or Precious with their C and have him sag into the lane.
Cmon man....there are LAYUPS missed....how many times are you going to drive rite into the teeth of their D? Spot up
Short take a f*cking floater....doesn't help we can't hit a 3....if they play decent D this will be a game, Pritchard not giving em 14 in the second half and kornet is not the reincarnation of Mutombo, smart play and this is a game at the end of the third

The fact that we openly say Thibs go soft in practice to go harder in game day is funny.
Can’t get a real Brunson/Kat PNR to save our life.
Moar handoff offense, compete garbage

Looking forward to running out a broken kat, precious, and jHart to start the 3rd and watching the lead balloon to 20.

Or even Payne, let Brunson be the off guard and focus on scoring.
But we all know Thibs would keep the same 5 to start and will they dig a hole again?
