If I’m a buyout candidate why would I come here?

Watch Thibadunce trot the same starting lineup that put us in that hole to begin with to start the second half.

Cmon bro Knicks fg% in paint is abysmal …that’s not Thibs





That is Thibs, you don't play a KAT, Precious and Hart lineup together. That gives the opponents 2 different players they don't need to really respect from three, so they can guard Hart or Precious with their C and have him sag into the lane.

Deuce is starting to look fake but I kind of blame Thibs

We have no flow

Donte gave us flow. I miss him. Bridges seems like a guy who doesn't work hard honestly

They will come out flat in the 3rd.

There’s nothing I’ve seen tonight to suggest otherwise. No semblance of a smooth offense, Thibs being outcoached and the defense is atrocious.

I am disappointed with the lack of focus tonight. It’s the second week in a row in which the lights have been too bright for this team.

Fortunate to be down only 13 but I won’t get my hopes up for the second half. Kudos to our guys if they can pull this off.

Why wouldn’t you? Don’t the Knicks have one of the better records in the league and have a need at backup SF?

I would have sat him right after that...if you aren't healthy enough to jump on an opening tip you don't get to play.

I am worried on that too, Celtics also start a 3rd stringer instead of their glass center, so can we.
Are you fans of the team or the player?

We could sure use TJ Warren's offense off the bench. Why is he not up with the main club??

That's the best explanation for Mikal. He's not a hard worker ... hasn't put in the time to perfect stuff and on some nights, he's going to come up empty

And again, the way he totally took the Nets assignment like it was a joke - our Nets bias aside - was a red flag
