And the home team. Aside from outplaying us, they couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.

From wingstop to wings please just stop already...

The rotation needs to open up. There's no reason why guys are playing 36 to 42 minutes.

Dadiet, Sims/Hukporti, Payne and Deuce need to play.

Get these guys minutes down and maybe we'll see some better energy defensively.

Stagger Brunson and Towns.

True.

Mikal not even Jeffries bad

Passes aren't crisp, misses close shots, and inconsistent on defense... this is just Mikal.

Don't know what's going on with him but hopefully he can get it going soon.

i used to make fun of it, but it's really cool for those end of the bench guys to get that extra cash. and the guaranteed contract guys generally pledge to donate the bonus money. so i fux with it.

I wonder if Sims playing 8 minutes is a symptom of inconsistency?

That’s why McBride played so hard to get the dub. We paid him starvation wages

It's gotten to the point where even if Mikal turns it around, I'll hate him as long as he's a Knick

KAT will be fine. He isn't the problem

Bridges' sh*t defensive effort is hurting the team even more than his lagging offense. If he was forcing misses/TOs he'd be a much better presence on the floor. He was a complete negative. Irregardless of this, his minutes need to be cut. He's not providing enough.

The next problem is fatigue. OG = dead legs, can't hit shots, not rotating as crisply. KAT = gassed, prone to fouling.

25, 27, 29, 31 unprotected.
Milwaukee top 5 protected.
28 pick swap with Nets.

Feel that pain?

But we should be ok as we at least have 26 and the 28 swap.
Hopefully Dadiet and Huk become our backups at wing and center, and Mitch and Precious stay healthy.
Maybe a trade.
