Tom Thibodeau is a bad coach. Scott Perry is a terrible GM. Leon Rose is collecting checks for CAA

In a parallel universe somewhere, the Knicks have KD, AD(or Harden), and Kyrie....

Meanwhile in this reality, the Nets are going to bring a championship to New York before the Knicks....

Knicks let Clint Capela crap all over them and did not respond with their best game of the season.

A date with an Embiid-less 76ers on the line.

Trash! Bunch of wimps with no heart! And Randle... oh man, don't get me started on Randle.

Hawks simply have way too much depth for the Knicks to compete with.

Knicks just looked awful. This team was built to beat crappy teams in regular season.

It was a great season, very excited to see what improvements are made this offseason in the draft and free agency as we make another playoff push next year.

Julius melted down.

But Thibs ruined us.

SERIES was tied 1-1 and coming off a win.

And then Thibs destroyed us.

He made Derrick Rose a starter.

Which

A.) Ruined our starting 5's chemistry.
B.) Absolutely ruined our backup unit.

Extremely fun regular season.

Most frustrating Playoff series ever.

The two guys that got us to the playoffs in Thibs and Julius; became the same two guys who sent us home and eliminated us.

Did he? Or did he not remember Frank was a player you can put on the floor to bother Trae as well?

trae is literally hiding on defense and everytime he gets caught on a bad matchup in transition he's able to just run back to somebody else before we make him pay.

reggie and marv don't realize what trae was doing was smart. the shot clock doesn't run but the game clock does until it's under 2 minutes.

Meh.. Hawks with proper coaching were just better than us. Thibs, didn’t help as much as he could’ve, but their role players outplayed ours, and their star player outplayed ours.

We have to see if teams use this blueprint on Julius next season. We have to figure out how to bring back Rose and Burks and Bullock. Three draft picks and we should use them all.

Low key this is probably karma for Dolan immediately raising prices for the possible second round advancing
