I didn't realize Brown grabbed Hart's nutz on this play. That's messed up.

Maybe his injured left ring finger is affecting his confidence to knock down threes?

KAT's is mostly scoring in the paint or going left as seen in the shot chart.

He is 2 of 13 from three against the Celtics

https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask?q=karl-anthony+towns+shot+chart+last+5+games


Our offense gives him zero opportunities to shoot threes. It's not even in the game plan. Thibs only knows how to use big men in the paint, rebound and defend. This is why I posted earlier about packaging him for Giannis in the off-season. If the FO is gonna continue to go with Thibs then might as well get a big man that fits in with his scheme.


L O L, might as well not have traded for KAT and settled for Randle instead
Tsk tsk tsk...at least they get to keep the picks. Trading for a guy, spend draft capital and realize they got a side upgrade. That is a fireable offense and mismanagement

it was a really unfortunate showing for him and ogugua odogwu.

He can go too.

The new CBA is a blessing and curse because it’s speeding up the time on evaluating players & their contracts.

We only got a 2-3 year window, team gave OG all the money that could’ve gone to Ihart & did it with a smile.

Fam can’t even be bothered to give us 10 points or 5 assists, what the fu*k is this sh*t? His defense is great but it doesn’t make up for the disappearing act on offense.

He would do great on the rockets or pistons where team is solid but the expectations are lower. I’m not saying I’m with the Giannis move but that spiteful chant Melo been doing all season might be working.

Tired of these sometimey, frail ass bitches that can’t shoot worth a sh*t when we actually need them instead of beating up on the Wizards and Hornets.

I gave Kat a lot of leeway cuz he became a Knick but every issue I had with him from his time in Minny just been shining bright.

Trade him first chance you get, can’t take his bullshyt anymore.

Would you trade him for KD?

Absolutely.

Derrick White is who we thought OG was.

Luke Kornet having a bigger impact than KAT.

That's not true. We couldn't pay iHart. We had full Bird rights on OG and only Early Bird rights on iHart. We offered him the biggest contract we could but okc could offer almost double annually.

Yeah basically. To heck with them and how everybody hates them and loves to tread on them. You / we are making ourselves a party to abuse! Rather not go through this again with bad losses to Indy.

So with that, I’ll stick around but I’m merely auditing.

Now the pressure is on us not to have the biggest melt down in NBA history.
You think Thibs would have called a better defensive game.

… Minnesota advanced.

I think people went to sleep early on here. There should be more discussion on this one and content about this game.



Players are committed to watching the tape. I think after they have a film session, they'll clear things up, and then go on to win Game 6 on Friday!

Also, at the 7:53 mark, KAT is asked about how he hasn't shot that many threes. KAT talked about how the game plan and how he is trying to do most of his damage inside and doing whatever the team asks him for.

KAT is so talented, but he is also completely soft and idiotic.

I would rather have Randle and Donte over him. They’re not as talented, but those guys were not soft. They were dogs. This guy plays and behaves like a ginormous pussy at times.

He can take his “oh my Gods” somewhere else next season for the right deal.

No saying the P word until we finish these C words. Those words being Pacers and Celtics, of course.
