Only Hart is still fighting, I am disappointed in this team despite the horrendous officiating.

Good second half lol

Well I like towns but I remember watching a game live last year and seeing how much Hartenstein saved us and thought — they can’t survive losing him and here it is

They also can’t rely on him if he stayed, he’s an injury risk

As usual, heads we lose, tails they win

If the Knicks' offense was a person they're bored... not boring... but bored... just no motivation doing repetitive things that are not necessarily synergistic

Poor coaching, bad shooting, awful defense, and suspect officiating is a recipe for a loss.

Not going to crack 100

1st half was an embarrassing offensive performance.

2nd half was worse.

Annoying hearing Hahn harp on defense when the offense lost the game.

The hawks are not a good defensive team. They are the worst 3pt defense.

And we couldn't get anything going

That is on the coach. It's so easy to see how this season is going to go.

This team is 2 tiers below contenders. 4-7 seed at vest. 1st round exit probable. 2nd round of we get a favorable matchup.

Treadmill team with no future assets. Brutal

We don't have enough offensive talent, so Brunson and Kat have to score big. The rest are role players .
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

The switches were horrible…Brunson has been super lazy defensively probably because he’s exhausted from play hard but dumb on the offensive end
