How do we not have a silent or court only broadcast by now? Display the occasional ad and programming bump when needed. Lisa and Novak actively make for a worse viewing experience.

I remember when the NFL tried that briefly. I liked it. Novak never takes a God damn breath.

I'd have loved to seen Ersan vs Bobby.

Just to see how many of Ersan's pump fakes Bobby would bite on. It would look like an old school glitchy video game...lol..

Interesting choice to pull Dame and keep Giannis in. Doesn't Dame usually play the entire first quarter?

I guess it was just once. Baseball did it once in 2022 for an MLB game.

He usually does. Maybe playing 37 minutes last night altered the norm.

Novak has always been terrible, but it's depressing that Byington is our number 1 announcer. At least we get Marques for many games this year. But Lisa is a constant presence and she's just not good.

I swear to god, some of these rebounds have been ridiculously lucky for the Knicks. Rebounds just fall unnaturally to them.
Also, Giannis seems fatigued from yesterday already or is it just me?

Ryan Rollins 1st quarter minutes

Looks exhausted to me. Especially since he's had to play some tough D.

Knicks guys talking about how we may have been too quick to fire Bud.

I've been saying they should do a court only broadcast since the 90s...lol.

Like you said, Crazy that we still don't have that option.

Credit to Doc. He's been giving the youth more opportunities.

If you have 5.1, you can mute your center speaker, that usually works.

Big fan of the youth movement happening here

How does Kolek get his lips so red?

Should have had the last possession of the quarter but Giannis and Pat chose not to go for the rebound

Matches Malone · Post #117 » by **Matches Malone** » Sat Nov 9, 2024 1:14 am

Wouldn't mind giving some spot minutes to Robbins. Lopez on Kat is just an awful matchup.

Giannis: Looks like he's playing against kids when he's determined to score in the paint.

Also Giannis: Might go 0-10 from 3.

Bobby doesn’t have the ability to challenge a shot and not foul

The classic Bobby Portis move of recognizing you have a major size mismatch in the post, take 3 dribbles to back the guy down and get close to the rim...and then take a turnaround fadeaway jumper. Literally wish coaches would just bench him every single time he takes a turn around fade. Just scream in his face as he walks to the bench "we don't settle", it's an unfathomably low IQ basketball decision.
