Well damn looks like I missed a horrible game.

In other news meLo is on to some sht. These things are incredible. Friend I went hiking with had em and she was pushing em like they were crack so I caved. She wasn't lying. They were so damn good. Highly recommended.

I hold these truths self-evident and the front office--and you all--will come to realize the same by this summer:

-> Thibs is not a championship coach
-> Hart is not a starter; he's a 22 minute bench guy
-> You can't win a title with KAT; defense is too poor to overcome
-> KAT must be used to upgrade fit... Giannis (unlikely) or KD & Dunn & pick (possible)

At this point Thibs needs to do the right thing n step down

You can bring in a different coach and it won’t move the needle as much as you think it will. The roster is structurally flawed. Trade some guys while their values are high and retool around Brunson.

Unfortunately I think Thibs will get another season to derail us because I doubt Leon will pull the plug that fast. He should but out of loyalty and friendship he wont. Its too bad because I don't want to waste another year of our core's prime or our yutes development.

That fast how? They have had Thibs here multiple years and he and KAT are a bad mix.

They asked Thibs before the trade and if I remember right he gave his ok on the trade. It’s time to bring in a new coach and if that can’t work then you start moving talent. There is a process to this and it’s always replace the coach first. Especially when the coaching hasn’t been good overall. Unless they think they can upgrade from KAT Thibs has to go.

KAT receives so much criticism in this board. Look, I am not an avid fan and i dont dislike him either for the knicks. Every game, he puts up efficient numbers, as if he doesnt generally have an off-game. Defense - he is not a C; gawd forbid you hafta put him as a rim protector when he isnt one, no?

Another year of this? Holy sh** you might as well forget about this core’s ability to ever win a chip then

has thibs ever refused to give his blessings on a player acquisition? Front office thinks just because he said ok means it really is ok for him.

If you give any modern NBA Coach this team, you easily lose 10 less games

Thibs is placing him in a bad situation to fail.

The Knicks look like a very tired basketball team. No legs limping into the playoffs again. This is Thibs MO. We see the exact same pattern every year. He runs the starters in the ground and come playoff time the guys are all exhausted.

Bad coaching by Thibs.

I don’t think this team is structurally flawed at all, more like the opposite, but the coaching badly needs a change.

The only issue is the bench but Thibs could have played more guys. Even not great guys and/or demanded the FO figure out a trade for depth.

mentally exhausted and disinterested is more like it.

mpharris36 wrote:they bring in Delon Wright...he doesn't play

they sign PJ Tucker and Beauchamp on 10-days and they don't play

what is the point...Thibs only is comfortable playing "his" guys. 2-way guys get run all the time and contribute because they are playing for the lives...but nope they can't find 10 minutes for some of those guys

why even draft young guys when this **** refuses to play rookies.

It's universally accepted around the NBA and backed by Jaylen Brown that Bronny is NOT an NBA player...

Even SO, one of today's best coaches JJ played him 30 minutes today, and he produced (17 pts, 5 assists)

Yes the Lakers were resting Luka and Reeves etc, but if Thibs were the Lakers coach, he would have not played Bronny...

And Bronny did it vs a full strength (minus Dame) Bucks team

Look at what even NON NBA players can do if they just get playing time

You think Kolek, Pac, even Watson and McCullar are really worse than Bronny they can't get a minute??

No, the coach is LAZY he just doesn't want to manage substitutions

I can't anymore with this coach... RESIGN, STEP DOWN, FIRE HIM

Adelheid · Post #98 » by **Adelheid** » Fri Mar 21, 2025 9:59 am

damnit, you mentioned bronny no-skill james...if that kid becomes more of an nba player than kolek and pac, i am really going to be livid

He doesn’t have to spend any time trying to come up with schemes since he is not running any real plays anyways. Even in game coaching is not there. He got the substitution patterns to the minute. He may be standing up the whole game but it is obvious his mind is not there. Dude has the best gig in the entire league.

I had a boss like him in the past.

he would get to work basically used most of the time like social hour...then around 5 when most people want to get home to there families start asking questions about things and wants you to stay late to pretend he's putting in all those hours.

He is is the most ineffecient coach in the NBA. They say he never leaves the Westchester coaching facility...wtf does he do all day long? We never run different player, we don't change up the defensive scheme...he doesn't change up the rotation. So wtf does he do all day long since he's a "gym rat".

His office door is closed all day long

Rumor is he's a rabid Amazon shopper

Y’all finally caught up to fire Thibs. Welcome to the party.

Did not really watch the full games you can just see the Knicks not playing with energy or doing anything different. Maybe their bodies legit can’t take it haha.

Where is the we have the best record in years guy? Y’all gotta stop refuting people point for your agenda and listen. Now that it’s caught up, people want to talk about it. Smh
