Gotta bring back Mitch and Deuce... ever since Brunson came in... KAT doesn't get to see the ball

tbh, the Knicks would probably be better overall with Mitch on court and unable to shoot than Hart on court and unable to shoot.

Played better with Mitch than Josh and Thibs subbed Mitch right away instead of getting them in foul trouble what a please use more appropriate word for this clown. Playing right into Celtics hand like an amateur.

These refs are not calling it and that doesn't help but Mitch was giving us life.

Facts. Thibs getting out-coached tonight.

Josh Hart is the knicks version of Ben Simmons.

Only this man can make a 3 pointer and still refuse to shoot them.

Why did Thibs fall for pulling Mitch. Mitch doing the big man thing allowed KAT to shine.

Kat is better when allowed to roam and Mitch was playing excellent defense.

Just my 2 cents.

Giving Boston every call. OG having to force shots bc Brunson is off and Bridges is non-existent

Hart isn't playing badly but his size against Brown is an issue

Mitch was helping a lot ... but if you give Boston tons of calls, they'll eventually run away with it

Thibs was insane to leave Hart in the game

Any normal coach would have panicked and pulled him a long time ago

Any shooting momentum Shamet had in the regular season is basically gone.

we all see the same thing here. there's no pressure on their defense while he's out there and simultaneously he becomes our primary decision maker a lot of that time so it's way too easy for them to force us into a mistake

Mitch is a rim deterrent

ATM, Hart is merely a rodent

Don't see how you can criticize Hart and avoid Bridges lol

Hart made a 3 and the other one was close to down

Not shooting at all is worse than shooting and missing, he's not even giving us a chance at a long rebound.
