Its OG's fault

Never said it was just OG.

Mikal is giving us RJ-level production on offense.
Thibs is playing his worst lineup the most minutes and completely mismanaged the end of game 1.
KAT is a sieve on defense that other teams can exploit.
Brunson made some awful decisions that cost us game 1. He's also getting hunted defensively even if he's our best player.

If you can't see how OG's shortcomings have also affected us, I don't know what to say. I guess KAT's the only problem, and we'd be witnessing a utopian Knicks championship run without him?

basically just this. It's not like KATs defense isn't a problem - it clearly is. Its about ignoring all other facts and posting exclusively about him.

That’s why I be saying idgaf if we iso Brunson the whole time. It ain’t like them other dudes want the ball anyways.


Very sound way to manage the team there melo

I’m sure Red Auerbach would be like “Do whatever the hell you want because we only have one player anyway”

Yeah …that’s the makings of a great team for sure

Essentially — you are saying coaching is the art of quitting

How do you come to these crazy conclusions :lol:

I hope we change the lineup, put Mitch in and just get this **** game 3 to make it a series.

I know there are more flaws to this team than kat... I just dont like his game and think he is a huge problem. He is a v frustrating player to have to root for and his style of play just isnt fun to watch. I dont think he is soft by any means. Playing with a fcked up hand, beast on the boards - he is tough as hell. I just dont really fck with bigs who are shtty defenders. And im sick of the stupid fouls, flailing for fouls that never get called. Its not fun to watch.

With that I'm done... for now. I'll root for him and still complain cause I am me. But for now this is a game thread.

Lets get this W.

Anyone else notice how much of a playoff riser Nembhard is?

We’re talking about a guy who averages 9.5 PPG and 4.5 APG on 46/33 splits for his career but in 29 playoff games (large sample) he’s become 15-5.5-3 player on an utterly absurd 55-50-80 splits.
