So the sky is no longer falling? All will people now say the. Bucks just suck

[Wildcat]

Brunson looks like he is taking it personally that Dame is ahead of him in the All-Star voting

He should. Despite his recently struggles, JB should be one of the starting guards.

The only thing he should be taking personally is that good teams run us out of the gym.

Too true. I said earlier, Knicks are a Tier 2 team right now. Bucks are a Tier 2 team. I will always feel confident playing against the Bucks.

What an amazing start to the second half

Thibs has to be the best coach in the NBA!

Letsssss goo knickssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[F N 11]

Spam star players play off them. They need to be touching the ball in the flow.

[Clyde_Style]

Thibs for Coach of the Year!!!!!!!!

[LFGK]

I tell you one thing though, Brunson and KAT get absolutely no calls it's pretty nuts, KAT gets obliterated when he drives

[Besart19]

This game its a proof of Thibs idiocity

The Knicks have taken more threes this games than any other game in the last 10-12 games for entire 48 mins

In the 2nd quarter at one point they had 25 3pt attempts on 38 shots total... he neither plays uptempo style to attack the basket nor shoots many three pointers... while his personnel is for both of these aspects at elite level

[Wildcat]

"Ghost of Anthony Mason"? Anyone heard that Knicks commercial? Cringed as hell.

It's debatable if it's a thibs problem or a roster issue, or maybe a combination of both which I think it likely is imo. But all I knew is that this team currently, ain't it and people were in denial about it.

We have the hardest schedule in the nba now so that's likely gonna lead to a coaching change or a big trade.

The roster is fine, the general directing the men isn't. It's not at all debatable, give this roster to Mazzulla or any other coach under 60 and we'd be taking 50 threes a game like the Celtics, instead we're 24th in the league. The man has a sports car and is using it like it's an F-150.

That Thibs pack gonnna hit like the powerball

There is def some roster issues going on. KAT should not be our anchor at the 5 on defense. He has a DFG% of 66.7% protecting the rim in the January. Love how dominant he is on offense but we're misplaying him at the 5. Hopefully Mitch will help mitigate those issues or we can trade for someone like Myles Turner. Another roster issue was overpaying like crazy for Mikal. There was just not a need for him. Mikal can't space the floor since his shot is broken and his defense is ass like it's been for the past couple of years. Along with those issues, Thibs is playing our guys a lot of mins so there is plenty of blame for everyone. And then you have Josh hart talking about our players have egos and agendas. This team is just a mess. I'm missing the game rn, but at least we know we can beat a bucks team that has doc rivers and washed dame.

How tf are u a Randle fan then??? If KAT has horrible defense according to u then how can u love Randle so much lmaoo

[F N 11]

Fawk

[Kidknick!]

The Thibs curse continues.

[TheGreenArrow]

No Brunson please be ok!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[The Vo Show]

Dame can't seem to pass to Prince correctly for some reason

[DaGawd]

hopefully brunson is ok

[Clyde_Style]

I tell you one thing though, Brunson and KAT get absolutely no calls it's pretty nuts, KAT gets obliterated when he drives

You can actually see Towns physically rattle when he gets whacked. He is just so skilled at manipulating the ball to alter his shot when covered that the refs ignore he's doing it while being hacked.

Part of it is ref neglect, part of it is KAT's actual skill at converting contested shots does blind them to the fact he's doing it while getting hammered.

[Wildcat]

Well, hope Tyler is warmed up. Looks like a shoulder stinger.
