ORL@NYK 1/6: 7:30PM 

Post#1 » by Jalen Bluntson » Mon Jan 6, 2025 2:19 pm

Not sure how everyone is watching this game with MSG/Optimum BS. The Magic have a worse injury report than the Knicks but, Thibs is trying to catch up!! Will the 4th qtr collapse continue? Ask Jalen's calf, Deuces hammy, KATs knee and, OGs elbow!! We should win this game but, at what cost?

Deuce being out has been an underrated factor in the two losses

After limping out of the loss in Chicago, Karl-Anthony Towns was listed by the Knicks as questionable for Monday’s game against the Magic with right knee soreness.

Officially, the diagnosis is right knee tendinopathy, also known as jumper’s knee, with pain and inflammation underneath the kneecap.

It’s not a serious acute injury but commonly arrives from overuse and Towns, 29, is averaging his most minutes since the 2017-18 season.

Tempted to just wipe the last 2 games away. Cross-country B2B. Schedule-makers knew those were going to be losses.

The Thibs fanatics that preach the word of the minutes and make excuses need to be hunted down for their crimes and forced to play 48 minutes of basketball with no breaks.


He'd be playing 37-40mpg if it weren't for his foul trouble.

They don't need to be hunted. They come out voluntarily! :lol: Not sure why though. It should be embarrassing at this point. 3...2...1...
