I was kinda pissed that I was going to miss most of this one but now that I got a chance to see the score I don’t think I even want to tune in to the 4th

Also you can fire Thibs and replace him with a different coach and this team still wouldn’t reach Boston/OKC level. We don’t have enough talent to reach that tier. We’re a tier below them

Why did we give OG big money and gut our farm system for Bridges if Tatum continues to be our daddy?

Only went 8 deep today I see. Mitch really is the only thing that can save this team and he hasn't played in 8 months. It's hysterical when you think about it.

I never want to hear anyone talking **** about Tatum from our end. He’s playing like a superstar.

**** pathetic Knicks team tonight.

Like **** Thibs and **** this team’s lack of heart and competitive nature.

This team is not a contender. No feel good wins against lesser competition will delude me into thinking that this team is ready to contend.

I would turn it off but we might get some Kolek minutes in the 4th

I wonder if OG could guard Tatum because nobody else out there can

I don't care....he is just shooting over mikal with no problem. He's done it for 2 games now...Mikal doesn't have the size to defend him.

Honestly, if Thibs had any balls he would empty the bench.

There is zero chance in hell they are making a comeback.

This team has been playing a hard to watch (at least for me) brand of basketball all season.

I'd trade all this back and forth, track meet bs for a gritty, lunch pail, hang our hat on defense squad any day. This isn't Knicks basketball.

I'd love to see us coached by Ime or Atkinson or Spo... we would be 1st in the East now

This is the worst game I’ve watched this team play in years
KAT gets his ass kicked every f’n night on defense
There are no adjustments ever
This is absolutely brutal to watch your team be the home team, back to back Saturday nights on national television and get their asses kicked
There is no excuse, period
