I don’t want this to be toxic but game was lost when JB wanted to engage SGA in a duel. We can’t rely on JB hero ball all the time especially against the better teams. We should trust KAT more in the clutch. There was only one time I remembered JB making a good pass to KAT the entire game putting him in a position to score.

Brunson’s defense in the PnR killed us in the 4th. Idk why Thibs didn’t hide him on Wiggins.

I love the fact that the Knicks wanted the smoke.
We will see them at MSG.

Should've used Kolek instead of Cam Payne.

Game was lost when bridges shot too soon and we gave up a layup. To start the 4th offense fell apart and gave up the lead with SGA on the bench.

Fire thibs.

Offense looked crisp most of the game. Best I've seen all season I would say. Then it all fell apart.

Also people, remember that Jalen is still learning the point guard role. All these battles are going on his memory bank and he’ll make the necessary adjustments and improvements

Down to the wire? Did you watch the 4th?


Of course! OKC only pulled away in the last minute.

Yea, kinda sucks, but good effort yet still sucks the way it ended.

Hopefully they have enough energy on the back to back and take care of business in Chicago.

This is garbage.

[edit] Maury2423 posted in the game thread -- (aff - sorry Maury for not giving credit where .. hum .. credit was due ;) )

"A game like tonight… i don’t blame Thibs for the lack of bench… I don’t trust Cam, Deuce is out, Shamet I feel played enough, Precious was iffy tonight but played enough imo…. And nobody else on the bench deserves to be playing"

Wftf**king fu*k is that trash?

TyKo can't get 10 minutes - would on the Celtics (any of those rando skinny 8-10 on the roster guards, say PP). Hakpoorti can't get 7 minutes - would on the Celtics (Queta).

The coach is trash. End of story.

Thibs be like

“Big game let me take out Brunson to start the 4th”

Against a bum ass team?

“Brunson going to need you entire half”


I stand by it, Thibs loss. Excuse after excuse for this dude. Play your damn bench players. Develop an offense besides basketball instincts. the prevent offense against an nba juggernaut was hilarious.

Played drop defense the entire damn game…

19 points in the 4th. Outscored by 18.

Knicks adding on to their league worst 4th quarter point differential

need to design more offense for KAT down the stretch when they are throwing multiple defenders at Brunson.
4-Peat! 22-25 BAF Champion Spurs:

ROSTER

Walker Kessler/Daniel Gafford/Adem Bona
Nikola Jokic/Santi Aldama/Isaiah Stewart
Aaron Nesmith/Josh Hart/Jaime Jaquez

We lost to a great team and was a HUGE win for OKC. This mean we have arrived on the big stage.

We'll be even better after the All=Star break, I'm good with our progress.
