I don't think Thibs has ever kept the starters in when they were being blown out. But also the Knicks -- especially towards the end of the season -- were rarely blown out.

Nova Knicks have been down for the last month. Donte being bitter. Josh being invisible. Bridges looking like we got FL-EEEEECED. Not a good look.

The problem is our 3rd stringers are actually good, but our coach plays them behind 2nd stringers who are actually bums

This is what they should do, but knowing thibs its not happening until February
1. Deuce over hart in the starting lineup
2. Bench cam and sims, play huk and kolek
3. Og McBride and mikal have to work more off screens and fighting over it
4. Defensively they need a lot of work, its going to take time, but they need to fix their defense asap
These 4 things, but we wont see it until February or march

Crazy how obvious that is to us all. Yet Thibs shows his boner for Sims.

KAT had the best +/- of all our starters.

Only OG will end up with a terrible offensive statline, although a big loss is a big loss.

Sims is just not NBA level talent. Send him to Westchester and keep him there.

Main issue with the starters is hart. Not that he's bad but he doesn't fit.

Better off starting precious, deuce or even hukporti.

Hart just doesn't have a role on offense and teams help off him as if he was a big that can't shoot.

We need two post game threads.

One for the posters that realise it’s game 1 and one for the posters that think the sky is falling

Our offense honestly not bad. This is just the Pacers series again and unfortunately that's who we play next. Opening against 2 of the best offenses ever is insane lol.

Just texted this to a buddy of mine. Payne may have a role. And I’m using “may” loosely. Sims? I’ve seen enough of him.

He actually looks like a basketball player on the court.

We see it but why can't the coach?
