NY Knicks BLOW 28 POINT LEAD at home! Against Starless Nets!

#1 Cam Thomas is going to be a steal from 2021 NBA draft, this dude gets buckets!

#2 I really want to see Knicks be good, league is more fun when Knicks are relevant. Unfortunately with Dolan as owner, seems like Knicks are going to continue to remain a terrible franchise.

Cameron Thomas was one of the premier shot-creators in the '21 Draft. He isn't always efficient but he can definitely generate these shots. Good to see him leading a comeback.

Melo and amare should thrive in this offense. If Jeremy Tyler and cole Aldridge looked that good in summer league then us knick fans have a lot to be excited about. Make room for all the bandwagoners when we take off

It’s their fan base. They make it more fun.

When the Knicks are great there’s nothing worse than getting trolled by a Knick fan with a NY accent. It’s degrading.

Morale is done. If your star doesn't believe than nothing will get done.
Sam Hinkie gets removed from the league for enacting a plan approved by the fanbase yet NIco Harrison and Patrick Dumont keep their job for alienating their fanbase. Make it make sense.

Am I the only person that couldn't stop staring at Thibs' right hand? Does he have Parkinsons or something of that nature or was that shaking some kind of play call? If you watch through the first and last minute of the OP's clip, you'll see his right hand moving in a strange way and I can't imagine it's a play call because he's not in a position for anyone to be looking at him.

Cam Thomas definitely gives off that "irrational confidence" vibe and I don't mean that as an insult. Those guys can be very helpful in the right situation on the right night, think Nate Robinson/JR Smith whom despite the hate they receive had some huge nights on offense and carried their teams to wins they had no business getting.

I've watched him have a few games this season and was very impressed, however the Nets have lost all of those games (not his fault)

I think you mixed the words obnoxious and fun.

Really, Knicks lost to the Nets after such a lead? Next you'll be telling my that they were chanting "Brooklyn" in Madison Square Garden!

Cam might be steal of draft. Herbert and Ayo are prolly the only better players drafted after him and he's better than alot of players before. He def has alot of room to grow. IMO he can be what Herro is for Miami in the future 6moy shoemaker creator

Whenever the Knicks go up 20+, they're in trouble.
