So I had the aisle seat, row 5. So who do I see walking up the aisle? Fcking Leon Rose. I tried to catch his eye and said “Hi Leon” as he walked past me but no luck. He just stared straight ahead. I looked for him to come up the aisle again but no luck.

I think he’s better with the ‘fro. He looked more powerful.

What gives Thibs? Yep…

I had to restrain Wingo from criminal activity

I'm sure the Knicks will have fresh legs for the back to back tomorrow

So Mikal bringing his hand up to his nose after that dunk while he hung on the rim? What was that supposed to mean? He’s such a dork.

I was thinking that might be it (duh!). I like it. Mikal’s a different kind of guy. :lol:

So I learned a lot about Herr Buzzardman during our time together last night. Info goes to the highest bidder.

They threw that double at JB a lot. The 4th quarter was tough to watch.

Did Payne get hurt or something?

Thibs is going to Thibs so he removed Payne from the rotation in the 2nd half but it is odd seeing Deuce only get 22 minutes with the tallest player in the Sixers most of the game was their 6'8 "center" and they only have 2 real scoring threats on the court in Maxey and George.

If Thibs wasn't going to use Payne or McBride to rest Brunson he could have used McBride to rest the wings with him guarding Maxey and Mikal and OG splitting time on George. The Knicks have far too many small guards but this was one of those games where it really shouldn't have mattered.

He barely played an 8 man rotation. We are 12mpg below the nearest bench minutes. We are almost 50 below the most bench minutes. It's just never gonna change. No other team does this.

It was absolutely atrocious coaching. He should have kept McBride in the 4th when OG came in. Mcbrides help defense helped us build that 6 or 7 point cushion we had. As soon he left the game the Sixers tied it. Not playing Payne at all after the strong 2nd qtr he had is just baffling. He did it against the Pistons too and ICEd him out. Not sure what he has against him but Payne brings the energy and momentum and most importantly gives Brunson some rest.

It's ridiculous at this point. He just refuses to crack 60 minutes off the bench no matter what is going on. He refuses to mix in more than three subs a game. Even on B2Bs. Why did we even bother to bring Shamet back? He barely plays either. I'm tired of being aggravated after wins. I'm tired of losing games simply because we are tired late in games. No other team operates this way.

with 22 shots Sprewell and Houston were scoring 23-28 points at best… Brunson has had many 40pts games with less than 20 shots… he is a scoring lead guard be he is never a chucker

I'd rather the Knicks fumble against Philly, but come out with a heartbreaking win, than to blow them out. Because f___ them.

I would rather dominate a weak team and prove we aren't fake hustle pretenders.
