No Siakam or Yuta yet? What gives? If Siakam is close play him tonight.

Enjoy the blowout L

Lmao ok? Further proves my point.

It’s ok, I’ll probably watch. We all do in the end.

No kidding lol. Maybe that means this board won't be as toxic after one bad quarter without them watching. Doubt it though.

If Thibs runs his starters to the ground against us, consider that a moral victory.

Scottie or not, ima still be watching and rooting for a W tonight.

@ the people choosing not to watch because a player is sitting out and calling a blowout L...y'all are the real blowout Ls

So who we starting if Scottie is out? Boucher probably. Perhaps Banton or Svi or maybe you go crazy and just start Champagnie to give the hometown kid a thrill and let the bench keep their rhythm together.

kieferli · Post #148 » by **kieferli** » Mon Nov 1, 2021 4:06 pm

Banton going to start, Nurse want his 2 PG system back but this time with a 6,9 PG

He just started full contact and has yet to partake in 905 games or worked up to game speed - I don't see any reason why we'd expect him before the original timeline (i.e. mid-November).

I don’t think we are going to win this one even with Scottie , ga game or 2 for our rookies take a break may be a good idea

Gibson looks like he got a new lease on life and then bench is strong. DRose continue to be a great vet.

Hard not to like that team. They will make it tough in both the perimeter and inside the paint. If Raps squeeze out a W it will be through perfecr execution in 4 qtrs which is doubtful..

Unlike the Nets, who threw out all their young talent for Harden (can no longer draw fouls) and Kyrie (can no longer draw conclusions), the Knicks finally built the right way and their fans deserve to watch a team they can invest in emotionally. (positive emotion that is)

You want a wild stat?

NYKs halfcourt offense is best in the L.

bboyskinnylegs · Post #153 » by **bboyskinnylegs** » Mon Nov 1, 2021 4:28 pm

will we get to see assistant coach Scottie mentoring/cheering guys on from the bench?

Dang. A buddy of mine south of the border literally just told me they were excited to tune in for their first Scottie Barnes experience. Would’ve been a nice potential coming out party for the rook. Lots of legends & stars expected to be in attendance for the anniversary

Oh well, he can def use the rest. Need Siakam back soon if the thumb thing is gonna linger. If he’s already basically ruled out tonight then I’d imagine its gonna be a few games before he returns

His health is way more important than a meaningless game. It just means I probably won't watch the game lol.

Using that logic why even play? Just save him until next season since regular season games are meaningless.

Posters on here think they’re team physicians. Too worried about guys who get paid to play.

johanliebert · Post #156 » by **johanliebert** » Mon Nov 1, 2021 4:39 pm

Hoping Flynn gets into the rotation tonight. Knicks defence will take away penetration from banton they’ll need Flynn’s shooting.

Scottie can take my finger

kirkwood · Post #158 » by **kirkwood** » Mon Nov 1, 2021 4:48 pm

FVV
Trent
OG
Precious
Birch

Dragic
Svi
Banton
Boucher

Likely a nine man rotation tonight, Flynn and Champagnie with some emergency and blowout loss minutes

HangTime · Post #159 » by **HangTime** » Mon Nov 1, 2021 4:55 pm

Prediction:

If Barnes can't play, then Maple Barnes to the rescue.

13 pts, 6 reb, 7 ast, 1 stl, 2 blk, 33 minutes

and we'll make 17 threes today

We’re anything but casual. We just know this team currently constructed sucks.

We’ve been through the young guns/ Amir Johnson, Ed Davis, etc. era’s to know.
