Hi Mitch.. .

I hope Mitch gets truly healthy. It would be great. He's a fun and funny guy and a great defender when he's healthy.

Just have a sinking feeling he'll never get quite right again.
It's not some awesome prediction. Tall guys with bad feet winding up done happens in the NBA often enough.
Hope the feeling is as wrong as my loss predictions.

The officials getting Brunson into foul trouble is what really made Thibs play the bench significant minutes

They've expanded to a 9 man rotation, you're embarrassing yourself.


The Knicks bench net rating prior to the 4 game winning streak was 7th in the entire NBA, during the winning streak it's now number 1 :lol:

"Net rating doesn't matter" - HEZI


The 4 guys off the bench were never healthy together until just recently so nobody who was available got added to the rotation. It was always the same. They all got the exact opportunities they always had when they were healthy and available. Nothing changed except they just got healthy.

But this isn’t even your bench, your bench is the rookies that you kept crying about.

Anyway I’m sure deep down you were angry the Grizz coach lost to Thibs. But we eating good tonight though

The Knicks bench has the highest net rating in the NBA these 4 games, they had the 7th highest net rating prior to the 4 games. You're not about to argue numbers, tighten up.

If he's not traded I still feel the FO is crossing their fingers and holding him out as long as possible to preserve the chance he can make it through the playoffs with a late season start

Maybe they get one good run out of him, but if it can win a chip nobody will care, because Mitch makes us very dangerous if he can give us that much

I agree there is no reason to ever expect Mitch to have a long and healthy career or to ever play a full season. At this point, get what you can out of him is probably all you can do

Does any other team throw deep passes down the court like we do? Reminds me when Kevin Love started doing it. It’s not being talked about a lot. Kat is the leader but other guys starting to take chances.

Cam Payne and Landry have the highest net rating on the team, they have been available to play for weeks, you said it's about the bench getting healthy :lol:

Payne has been one of the most productive bench players on a minute basis all season. You need to tighten up, you looking crazy out here bro. You lived and breathed that bench sucks mantra, now you gotta try and use the same stats you were disavowing to try and prove a point. Everybody can see the rotation expanded, you can't :lol:

Bridges isn't playing 40mpg all of a sudden and looks like a demon on defense, what a shocker.

The Thibs fanaticism has truly reached awkwardly bizarre levels




Minutes police: “chill out on the minutes Thibs, you’re burning out the starters, play the bench more”

Thibs fanatics: “the bench sucks! Hahahahahaa ROFL they’re bums! Thibs is the greatest coach in Knick history! You all deserve Fizdale and Isiah Thomas for complaining about 4mpg!”


Minutes police: “hey the starters look rested and the minutes are greatly improved and the bench looks good with the bigger opportunity they got”

Thibs fanatics: “The bench is only good now because they’re healthy! Thibs is the greatest coach ever and the sole reason this team is winning! Not because of KAT he sucks and doesn’t play defense, not because of Mikal he sucks and doesn’t play defense! It’s Thibs! All Thibs!!!!!!!!!! I love Thibs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Does Thibs still need to go?

Are we still only the 6th best team in the league?

Did we still overpay for Bridges?


NO, THIBS DOESN’T NEED TO GO FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. THIBS NEVER NEEDED TO GO :evil:

We’re only one game Boston for the no. 2 seed and you all want to fire Thibs. :noway:

So Cam Payne and Landry Shamet are our best players now :rofl: The audacity to call me crazy. It’s always the wackos calling others crazy

What minutes bump have either gotten? They still play the same amount of minutes they have all year. So nothing changed besides the three guard bench lineup is finally available to play together.

And Mikal having good stretches is nothing new. He had a great month of December so it’s nothing we haven’t seen before. Players go through good and bad stretches so nothing new there.

Team has built up chemistry now and the home games certainly help. No long west coast road trips or back to backs so that has certainly played a role.

But I love how you aren’t even attempting to defend the Grizz coach. You just gonna leave him out to dry like that damn. No comment about his schemes or rotations. Damn

Reading comprehension would help, I said highest net rating, I didn't say best. But, to try and save face you need to apply a word I didn't say. Guan0 is right, yall are like flat earthers.
