Re: PG: Knicks lose to Lakers
Fake @$$ fans screaming like little girls for Bronny is just trash. LeFlop crapping on our hardwood year after year is trash. Losing without AD playing is trash. And lastly Thibs is pure trash.
Fire Thibs!

With OG out, Mikal gonna have to be more aggressive, can't rely on just Josh to make plays for others... Mikal has to average 22+ppg, 6apg and if KAT keeps having injury affected games, JB gonna have to average 30ppg... we really miss a true sniper like Divo in these types of games
OG about to miss his yearly 20 games?

Re: PG: Knicks lose to Lakers
The only thing that matters in this game is that OG got hurt. Now we gotta balance getting wins without overplaying the rest of the guys

Re: PG: Knicks lose to Lakers
Credit to JJ Redick. He outcoached Thibs in this one. KAT had no business being on the court. No energy whatsoever. Precious outplayed him and should have been out there the rest of the 4th. He should just get the surgery at this point.
Brunson was really selfish in this one. Absolute trash going into double teams and turning the ball over. OG was the only one who had anything going today and his teammates didn’t bother to look for him.
Gotta feel bad for Josh Hart with how hard he played. Heck of a game from him

I can't get mad at the Bronny cheers. They paid tickets and got fleeced by KAT and JB. Gotta cheer for something.

Re: PG: Knicks lose to Lakers
After OG goes to the locker room, the decision not to pull out Brunson and Hart in the entire 2nd half until the white flag is flat out scary.
Minute management is one thing but no breaks is another level.

He will be back when Mitch laces them up in March to form a formidable defensive duo. By this time however Knicks will be in the play-in so who cares.

What is the injury report on OG? I might as well prepare myself for the 10 game losing streak

Re: PG: Knicks lose to Lakers
I don’t care how good they’ve looked during certain stretches at times during the season.
This team is dead last in 3 pt defense. They’re not winning anything when their perimeter defense is that bad. Losing Og for any extended period of time will make their glaring weakness even worse.
Also, I am super concerned about KAT. He has looked so awful since he injured himself. He can’t shoot worth a damn.
This team is not a contender. I’ve seen enough stretches of awful perimeter defense throughout the season to know that this team won’t go far when they can’t guard the 3.

Knicks have the worst 3pt defense in NBA history and now OG is in the hospital.
The same Chris Rock showing appreciation of Lebum is shameful too. Fake azz fans.

Re: PG: Knicks lose to Lakers
This game showed the two biggest flaws with this team:
1) if Brunson has an off night, no one else can create a shot and the offense struggles
2) there is zero margin for injury. If one of the top-5 goes down this team is in trouble

Re: PG: Knicks lose to Lakers
Coach has no clue what to do when a team has big wings or mobile bigs that can switch onto Brunson & KAT, there's no movement or anything to get them the ball on the move, no pin downs, no nothing just iso and post ups.

Re: PG: Knicks lose to Lakers
I am now waiting "Awful coaching" clip to yell at all those defensive mistakes made in this game to leave wide open threes and layup drills.
