So Towns is the 9th man now, I guess.

I was just telling a friend last night that I'd love to see the NBA create a new foul category for accidental trips. It's frustrating to watch feet get caught up and the defender be penalized, especially in the 3rd and 4th where foul trouble becomes important. Give the ball back to the offense out of bounds, but the trip doesn't count against foul totals.

Random rant done, moving on.

Thibs leaving Mitch this long is a crime, he’s exhausted and they’ve scored 6pts because of it

TJ McConnell is more exciting than anyone on the Knicks.

Thomas Bryant injured his finger in the last game. Looked like it was dislocated but, to be honest, I haven't looked at the injury report to see what happened.

In any case, Bradley held his own after Bryant went out with the finger injury so Carlisle is sticking with him.

Hart is the most annoying baller in the NBA. I hate his stupid facial expressions. Dude's a tool.

Towns taking dumb fouls. Hart and Wright had Nemb covered, he didn't have to get involved.

Towns has been awful the past 5 quarters. If Knicks are to have a chance, he has to be a lot better offensively.

Can Towns bang on the block?

I always cringe when I see him try.

He didn’t get involved did you watch the play? He’s running up court and nemb ran into him
