Game 36: Knicks @ Bulls: 1/4/2025; 8:00pm MSG 

Post#1 » by The KnicksFix » Sat Jan 4, 2025 6:47 am

Picking up where the GOAT Context left off.
I like what I saw last night. Keep your head up squad, we are just a few moves away needing to shore up the bench. Team still learning at the 35 game mark, and almost there.
Let’s start the next streak, we have revenge on the mind for the Bulls.
We are beating OKC at the garden next Friday, this is the first game on the way back to that goal. :rock: :rock: 8-) 8-)

OG shouldn't play tonight. I can only imagine how banged up he feels after that fall last night.

I definitely feel as though they are taking notes and adjusting to each team, so the next time we face the Hawks, Cavs we should know what needs to be done.

Just for the record. Appreciate all the words and Love. I had a lot of fun making the threads. Still feel good and bad about
last nights game. Even with our issues I felt like we still could have pulled out a win. Could give you several examples but this is a new game and new thread don't want to derail the theme of this game. Revenge is on most of our minds.

I feel like on this Chip journey. In game 35 -1 of 82 games. Our incomplete team got knocked down by the thunder. We fought
well and came close to winning the battle but close isn't good enough. I woke up with a sour taste in my mouth and I hope our Knicks
woke up with that same sour taste. This is the 2nd game on a back to back but if I'm playing on that Knick team today.
I want to kill every team in front of me until we see the Thunder in our house on Friday. That's the type of revenge I'm on.
That's the type of revenge I hope some of you feel. And if you don't feel it. Find that energy.

When you get put down after you put up (not your best fight) a good fight. Get your ass up and come back stronger.

I hope our Knicks feel this way.

And "The Knicks fix"...its your time to "fix" the game 35" bump in our road to becoming a chip team. It's your time bro! You have my blessing!
Let's get em!!!!! and LETS GO KNICKS!!!!

Bulls last game was wed. Always find it odd they can't do better at making back to backs more fair. Like either both teams are on a back to back or at least 1 team isn't coming off 2 days rest lol

This will probably be a loss. It’s 2nd night of b2b. We have tired legs and Chicago had 3 days off.

Like I keep saying, sit Brunson if he's hurt. There's no one his shot should be this off. 3 for 34 from 3 point range in his last 6/7 games is not a promising stat. Something ain't right.

i mentioned it earlier but the fact NBA scheduling can't avoid stuff like this is absurd.

i remember last year when we were close in the standings with Orlando I was paying attention to their schedule. and they played the warriors on a back to back where the warriors had played 2 games prior to that game the last time the Magic had played a game. So it was the Magic's 1st game in like 5+ days and the warriors 3rd in that same time span.

Magic were in the middle of an 8 game home stand - they played March 23rd and then had off the 24th, 25th, 26th and played the warriors on the 27th.

Warriors were on the road and played March 22nd, 24th, 26th, 27th.

From March 22nd to the 27 the warriors played 4 games where as the Magic played 2 - with 3 days off leading into a game against a team on a back to back. the warriors won though :lol:

i know it's complex to schedule it all, but stuff like that simply should not happen.

Thibs trusts no one. Who will play PG? Deuce is out too right? 48 minutes incoming for Cam if JB sits. This is madness.

Brunson will play until we lose him to a more severe injury.

Well, GreenArrow has informed us that Brunson sucks and is a ballhog, so hopefully he sits. Maybe for the next 10 games, so the Knicks can get all the wins.

Dude is a clown. I skim by most of his nonsense. The occasional tweet may be worth the view but, his comments are worthless.
