Players getting banged up in December. You hate to see it. If we have another repeat of last season I will lose my shyt!! We need a healthy squad. End of story. This game doesn't mean shyt to me. We need everyone healthy to get where we want to go.

Must have been looking ahead to the biggest game of the century coming up on Tuesday.

Move on and let's get that CUP!

Pistons played well. How much of that was because we allowed them to? I’ll say 75%.

Precious did some good things, so that’s a positive

It was a bad loss. They were down by 17, they fought back, and were down 2, but then started to play like ass in the 4th quarter to erase the close deficit.


Undermanned, fought back a few times, didn’t make shots that were a little rushed but not lazy or stagnant, Cade superstar game, Detroit just nearly won in Boston.

Can’t call any loss against a sub 500 team, even at home, a true bad game, even though everybody does see them all the same.

Reasons of the loss:

Sims starting digging a hole.
Missed FTs.
Careless turnovers.
Left wide open threes for the Pistons.
Moar missed FTs.

If this game nails the coffin for starting Sims (i see all the phone-in calling to start Sims in Knicksfantv lol), i can still treat it as a moral victory. If no KAT play Precious and Hukporti please, thanks.
Are you fans of the team or the player?

Guard them tough and you’ll get called for a foul. The only time we had momentum is when we got deflections, because that’s when the refs (who blow) can’t blow their whistle.

When the supreme talent of this roster represents, Thibs' problematic coaching isn't an issue - the Knicks players offensively are better than most defenses on NBA hardwood. The offense is going to reflect the incredible scoring talent of these players and be very good to great the vast majority of the time. Thibs rightfully lets them cook.

When the shots aren't falling, there are starters missing, OR the opposing coach knows how to disrupt an important piece or two of the elementary scheme that Thibs coaches, there's no chance for this team to shift gears, redistribute the responsibilities, and fall back on a different approach. There is only one way of doing things offensively.

Just keep going out there and spam the same concepts until they work, or you're exhausted and the final horn has sounded. Shots falling or not, Towns playing or not, better coach solving you or not.

Give the keys to someone else.

In other news Wagner tore his oblique so now the Magic got two torn obliques. It will be Bucks and Knicks for the East cup unless we play like we did tonight on Wednesday.

Thibs gotta manage minutes better…if he doesn’t like it when one key member of the team, KAT, gets hurt, he’s gotta make sure no one else is put in that position cause the way he’s coaching…

He’s gotta realize he’s gonna get fired if he can’t get us far into the postseason. It’s not about just about regular season wins anymore.

Our shooting was bad and free throw shooting was awful. Missed 9 free throws in a 9 point loss but also shot 32% from 3

Also this is not a good defensive team so if we don’t got it offensively we won’t grind out many wins. Too many poor defenders out there

It was a fake injury to get him rested up! We might even get fined for not playing him. Stay tuned

Why did Brunson (with a sore back) played 43 minutes tonight?

Why did Sims start over Hukporti (who played really freaking good)?

Why did Kolek play on 4 friggin minutes?

When the Thibemberg trials begin, you will be one of the first to go for your crimes against Knicks humanity. Why does he need to rest, sir?
