Good win overall. Portland came out gunning but we showed them there’s levels to being mid that they haven’t reached yet

Hopefully those that love coaching freedom will join together to root out this evil, this plot by the malign Minucrats to destabilize our beloved Thibs!

Who is making 32 million out there that might compliment Mikal better?
What does Trey Murphy make?
Jalen selfishly took less money so now it's hard to get proper value for him

We can keep them both. Just give Mikal free reign on the 2nd unit. Start Deuce. Might have to bench Thibs to the retirement home to make it happen.
GettinitDone wrote:Missed the game, but my suspicion is true, Mikal is a better playmaker than Josh, I've been advocating for Josh to move to the bench since Nov, so Mikal would get more touches, more as a playmaker, he just has a knack of finding an open man effortlessly. When he's scoring and dishing consistently, he plays better D too, that's the Mikal we traded 5 1st for.
But Thibs has a hard on for Josh, he keeps letting him and JB have the ball... now with JB out, Thibs has no choice but to put it in Mikal's hands, and I think we see more fluid ball movement.
I hope moving forward, Mikal gets more featured on offense, he's a much more capable playmaker than Hart because he also scores/ shoots.

The Mikal confidence boost will be needed later on as well. Not focusing on the fact we had it won in regulation and let it slip because if we did we miss out on this moment and the other teachable things.
Nice winning back to back west coast games when it was starting to look a bit grim. You’ll take 2-1 on the road with no Brunson all day.
Kinda also could be seen as the team rebelling against the coach in a way....

Sad you sheep don't see that the only way to get more basketball freedom is to give Thibs more authority.
Everyone knows Rick Brunson is the one pumping up the minutes in a bid to undermine Thibs!
Trade Brunson, fire Rick, unleash the freedom of Thibs!

This is going to force guys into different roles and the offense by usage is going to change dramatically.
We were surviving on Brunson brilliance. Now other guys have to step up including the coach...no more Brunson crutch to carry the load. We have to be more creative and innovative.
Lets see how all this shakes out but Knicks have a chance to come out better for this going into playoffs with guys getting expanded roles and when Brunson comes back we can hopefully be clicking.
