Mitch doesn't help at all vs the Celtics either

OG is missed for sure...but wow.

Wow great start, it's almost like the Celtics were **** with the Knicks psychological state of mind by pulling Porzingis right before game time. What an embarrassment and Celtics were already hiding their cards going into this game.

you don't think a high volume 3 pt team comes into the game salivating facing the worst 3 pt defensive team in the league?

We are definitely behind Boston and Cleveland. We’re on that bucks/pacers tier.

How embarrassing.

I mean we're missing OG who is easily the most important player when it comes to dealing with Tatum/Brown

And KAT clearly injured and hobbling around out there with not much movement.


Yeah - giving them a pass for this one. They got rusty with all the off days. We get the break and regroup to try and get the 2nd seed.

I’m quite literally screaming at my tv
Thibs doesn’t call OUT ANY PLAYS TO GET MORE TOUCHES EARLY IN THE GAME
KAT has 6 points of 3 shots
HE SHOT THE BALL 3 FREEKING TIMES
No one else in the starting lineup other than jb kat and Mikal should be shooting

Precious can’t guard for SH** yet, he’s the 5 right now, and the sole big
Hukporti has more energy, more understanding for the game, and IS an offensive threat
FREEKING PLAY HUK MORE MAN

F*** you Thibs

Apologist, please give me a break with all the excuses.
The Celtics came to play without 2 of their starters and we came out ready to play an exhibition game in China.

We have two scoring stars, the rest role players with not enough shooting or shot creation. And we don't get the defensive benefit we should out of the good defensive role players

Need to move Hart to the bench as the 6th man and insert Precious or Mitch into the starting lineup. More defense and a stronger bench.

I don't like the way this team is coached and the talent has carried this team despite of it, but against the NBA champions you need to be prepared and have a strategy to take away something from their arsenal.

Instead, the team barely practices, comes out unprepared, and doesn't defend the three point line against a team that lives and dies by the long ball.

The difference between a coached team and a team who has to coach themselves. We play big market teams Lakers and Celtics and crap the bed every time.

Some is personnel but Thibs is easy to beat if you just shoot a ton of 3's like this ... with today's rules

Other teams, Pritchard is a minor player ... against us he's deadly

This game just shows Celtics have been coasting the last few weeks. They will turn it on when they have to
