Wanna hear some wild schit? For all our Taj bashing, TWD actually had the best +/- on the team.

Taj Gibson -1

Top 4 Seed is what is needed to make a title run. We should be solid after the ASG.

Rose did a hell of alot under the gun but if he offered the Wizards their own 1st back, Sims and other scrap filler for Gaffords and got it the Knicks are able to weather the injury storm but without Mitch, iHart, Randle and OG the Knicks are the smallest team in the league. Thatsa caveat grande ther tho...wow Knicks need size...cmon
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right
...you are a fan of your opinion not the team.

I’m not getting low and negative unless we lose games in demoralizing fashion once our team is whole.

But one thing is for certain, I’d love to play this Pacers team in the playoffs when the games matter and our defenders are back.

I wanna stomp the smile off Haliburton’s face… and then offer Siakam a toothbrush so he can use it on them yellow ass uniform matching giggling teeth, with great pace.


I figure the Knicks play .333 ball until OG and Randle return, which unfortunately is probably at least 6 weeks from now.

Let's see how many games that is.
16 or 17 games. So that's 5-12

After that they'll have 11 games to integrate everyone before the playoffs.

43 wins. 7th seed. Maybe they'll draw a good 1st round matchup.

Yup let's take the worst injury timeline. And assume all other teams stay fully healthy. Good math. Place your bet then.

We have an emotionally immature bunch here.

Having said that, Boggy and Burks played well for their first game.
Taj has nothing left, and that’s the key to the loss. Sims had a chance at minutes, but couldn’t gut it out. Disappointing.
I’m surprised McBride couldn’t guard McConnell.
Brunson was incredible as usual.
Hopefully we’ll get IHart and Sims back by Monday.

2 games before the all-star break guys. Hold it together.


Knicks lost point of attack defense in Grimes but at least gained Burks calling his own number 12 times a game

Expected a loss but still sucks.
Taj should just retire.
Why is Brunson in late when game is out of reach???
Especially with so many injuries.
Why Thibs? Why??
Hopefully we get back on track after the much needed break.
It is just one game but Burks looked better than Bogy.
Hart salary will be a problem.

you know we're losing when drunktape reappears spamming fire thibs posts every 30 seconds :lol:

he really does need to stop playing the 7.5man rotation though - especially after adding two thibs type vets to spare him from his own psychosis

just need to survive until all-star break and hope taj retires sometime that week

So far the Knicks have had pretty much the worst case scenario with injuries. Plus, if you weren't paying attention, they are being deliberately cute and vague about how long the recovery etc will take.

Yeah, I'll stick with it's 5 or 6 weeks before you see OG and Randle.

iHart might come back in 2 weeks to hobble around on his reduced achilles like he did last year though.

Burks is not a guy I want to rely on. I feel good with Bogie in the rotation, but would want to sit Burks when he's bricking.

These concepts are alien to Thibs. Burks is his guy. He'll play Burks in triple OT when he has gone 3-25.
