GT: Kolek expected to start against Bucks 

Post#1 » by Luv those Knicks » Fri Mar 28, 2025 1:21 am

I didn't want to make a game thread, because I don't spend enough time here to know the rules and/or guidelines, but when a game thread is made, feel free to make a "Kolek" title, as he's expected to start.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nba/three-knicks-guards-out-vs-bucks/ar-AA1BNjeR?ocid=msedgntp&pc=U531&cvid=aabf7252256a4999a1fc256b7ac1483f&ei=54

Regular season games / win or lose at this point - doesn't interest me. 3rd or 4th seed - doesn't interest me, but I like to see a guy like Kolek get minutes. Till the end of the regular season, it's all about staying healthy and getting a look at the kids. Then come playoff time, I'll care about wins.

Looking forward to TK's first start and presumably, the first time he plays over 20 minutes. Go TK!!!

What's the over/under on number of assists for him this game? 12? 14?

Who knew the usual spate of Thibs injuries this season would all come at the same position

Anyone knows that people get injured randomly and injuries have nothing to do with minutes, so we probably should just play Kolek 48 minutes.

Kind of the story of this season and why the overall mood is rather down than upbeat. I'm usually a humble guy and wouldn't feel bad about this, but when you have traded all your FRPs 7 years in to the future and unprotected and have very little room to improve....then above stat becomes depressive.


Hoping for the best with Tyler. I'll go out on a limb and say he'll get 14+ assists. He will also hit 2+ 3 pointer. Knicks win a very close game.

We’re not there yet. This team needs (1) to improve the bench, and (3) time to gel.
