Expect some starting lineup changes tonight, listening to Monty this morning sounds like they have some changes in mind. I really like Monty we all talk about things on here and complain about xy and z but it's clear he is thinking the same things he talked about pushing Ayton to be more aggressive and finding the right mix of players, I expect this team to start to find it's stride in a few weeks, they haven't been healthy or had their full compliment of players all year and I think finding the right combo of lineups is just going to take a little time.

Knicks have played much better with the new coach, could be that new coach bump that some teams get.

How do we get so lucky catching the Warriors on a three game win streak and then the Knicks on one as well?

This, in my opinion is a true must win.
You win 2 in a row, lose against the Lakers, expected, then get to come home (which we suck at) and face a bad Knicks team (even if they are playing better). This is the start of the make-hay schedule we have, and it is a must win. All hands on deck, no **** around, time to get things right at home and take care of the woeful road-bound Knicks.
MUST WIN.

No, but interesting fact, Marcus shares the same Dad with Monte Morris, and Markieff shares the same Mom with Monte Morris who plays for the Denver Nuggets. Miles Bridges of the Hornets and Mikal Bridges of the Suns are twins. Also Bogdan Bogdanovic and Bojan Bogdanovic are distant cousins twice removed. Jrue, Justin, and Aaron Holiday were born on Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Steph Curry and Seth Curry are biological twins. Steph was actually born a girl and shortened his name from Stephanie to Steph in 4th grade.
And completely unrelated but interesting fact the league won’t allow Moore Gay Love Hart Valentine all on the same team.

another interesting tidbit. Yao Ming's last name really is Ming. He was just saying otherwise to **** with Westerners.

I wonder how much points we're going to let the Knicks go up in the 1st quarter and then try to make a comeback? It really looks like that's our thing now

As he said some changes and not only one, I believe he will start with the death lineup:
Ricky
Booker
Oubre
Bridges
Ayton

Bridges starting tonight would be awesome

They're brothers that actually both played together at Kansas.

Overall, They unfortunately were more trouble than what they were worth to us.

That's probably it. I was going to mention he could start Ayton and Baynes with Diallo subbing in off the bench, but was thinking of Robinson and Randle being in there, but they haven't been starting Robinson, but start Randle with Taj Gibson along with Markieff. Still fairly big, but not as much of a problem.
It would be nice to get Robinson in foul trouble since he was 11-11 from the field last game, or foul him instead of letting him dunk it, since he shoots only 61% from the line.

Even a believable back story. Next you're going to tell me they yelled at fans, coaches, choked a teammate, got matching tattoos and were arrested for assault.

Thanks man. Of course nobody will ever quite show the level and mastery of the great one!( Kerrsed)

And my galaxy phone does make it somewhat difficult sometimes due to clipboard issues. It's still a work in progress, But I do of course appreciate the support
