OG is out atleast one month. Sprained foot is no joke. Mitch will be starting as soon as he’s up to speed lol

His current season average is a career high. Just embarrassing levels of stanning.


I knew it take you a few days for you to find a new reason to want to fire Thibs. It’s an annual tradition of your posting.




:lol:

Yes, a guy getting a non contact injury under a coach that has literally ended careers through overplaying guys is going to be my reason. We said this would happen, it happened, and you're still here stanning. It happened last year, just embarrassing.


Love that it took you less than a week to find a new reason to fire Thibs. You’re so predictable. It’s funny that you were just dunking on everyone about Thibs listening to you but then act like it didn’t happen.

You think our defense is bad just wait now without OG. We about to hit some rough spots on the road to the playoffs.

This is the worst game of the season for Brunson. Dude needs to slap himself in the face for **** the bed on national television tonight. You got outplayed by Lebron.

Just absolutely embarrassing game for Brunson.

Hart and Precious were the only 2 guys that gave a **** tonight. Like this is why I am hesitant to call this team a contender, because they’re way too inconsistent to be a legit one.

Og is averaging .7 mins more than his season average. You really think .7 mins is why he fked up his foot? Be better guan0!


How often has OG stayed healthy for a whole season, meLo? Pls don't answer its rhetorical. This is truly an obtuse argument. I do usually enjoy talkin sht. But this is an absurd argument I'm annoyed I allowed myself to get dragged into.

And I'm not going to ask you to be better. Would be Like asking a fish to climb tree. :lol:

He’s been made of glass since before we got him. How is that Thibs fault :lol:

Anyway

Good Job Fat Kat on the winning streak

All good things come to an end and with OG sidelined for the foreseeable future there's no certainty how competitive we'll be seeing how we've developed no frontline depth and Thibs is looking outmatched already

Knicks should learn from this. This game was lost when kat didn't touch the ball for the first five minutes of the game. If they started off featuring him he would have gotten in a rhythm. He is more important than jb to this offense but jb has to feature him. Make sure he gets his shots early. But this is a learning game. They never hit a second gear

Another 4th quarter collapse. Our 4th quarter net rating is near the bottom of the league.

2 point game going into the 4th. -11 so far.
