He's got some S&M thing going on with Hart. Likes to see him bleed.

What can I say, were knicks fans, we have high expectations.

6-2 in the last 8 games with no Brunson available

6 games didn’t count though :wavefinger:

No garbage minutes is inexcusable

Thibs with the Bum Juice lineup

Why do you not want jHart to pad triple double record

He's trying to get him a triple double.

Maniac.

Looks like hart couldn’t get number 10. Sad

JVG being Thibs mentor while being younger is hilarious.

Also good luck recruiting any decent, 15 mpg players here. Those guys know they get 0 minutes with Thibs.

jHart is going to look like that in 2 years.

Thibs keeping some starters to the end when they weren't even trying is why he's a clown

We brought in Payne and Shamet and they’re playing 15mpg+ lately. 21 and 30 tonight

Oh you meant 15mpg players that we would then bench for rookies

Thibs saw them cut the 34 pt lead to 16. He is never resting them ever.

jHart is going to look like that in 2 years.

I know statistically he is having some very good games but ever since the all-star break I have felt Hart has lost at least 1 level of play. To me at this point I would have much rather preferred Hart off the bench. Would have balanced things out nicely but you know at this point it is beating a dead horse I guess. Second round elimination here we come.

OG's play has been really stellar without Brunson. The dude is IMO a legit 3rd option on a title contender---he has become a straight bully on the court. Absolutely relentless and he looks much more fluid as well.

I think the 4 week injury and absence really recharged his batteries as well.

The man is steady on both ends of the court.

I think you have to play him over Payne

Delon is a better defender

What happened to us not having our starting the entire year? Didn't Thibs say that just prior to Mitch's return? Wasn't the plan to play them alongside each other?
