Someone needs to do something obnoxious to Trae.

I guess Delon is sort of doing Deuce stuff but a better PG. If I like someone, he is going down the tubes pronto.

Can we at least give OG a few minutes on the bench?

I don't wanna see any starters in the 4th. We got another game tomorrow.

I think he gets too much **** for this but I'm gonna lose my mind if Hart/Towns are playing in the 4th. The only way your bench gets better is on the court.

And his minutes allocation makes it very hard for the knicks to sign good bench players. Why would they want to play for coach who hates using em?

And here comes Towns. I like Thibs but this is frustrating game tomorrow and he refuses to go deep into his bench.

We're going to have to overpay to get any decent depth. Come play for the guy who doesn't want to put you in a 28 point game is a lousy sales pitch.

Thibs is really just a crazy guy.

30 point game with 8 minutes to go. No starter should be in there anymore.

Overall very good game. I think most knick fans love and appreciate JB and KAT but I have to admit it is an entirely different look when we have 4 good defenders on the court...making stuff much more difficult for the opposition. Really the only way to make this work is possibly having Mitch in the line-up erasing many holes.

Delon has been a very pleasant surprise.

edit: can't believe KAT is still on the court....Thibs really deserves every late season injury his teams suffer...like he really earns it.
