Bryant got hurt.


Ah... didnt know that.

Dowsnt IND have another C? The one from Kentucky?

He tore his Achilles super early into the season.

We greatly miss him. His athleticism and rebounding were huge for us.

It's amazing if you compare what fouls they call on KAT vs the calls that defenders never get called for against KAT.

KAT breathes on a player? foul

Other player wacks KAT across the arms in the most obvious foul you ever seen? No call.

The disrespect he gets from officiating is probably the worst I've ever seen and I've watched so many Knicks get disrespected by officiating through the years like Melo.

I had a frozen acai bowl with vanilla froyo, coconut flakes, honey, blueberries, and cookie dough bites for dinner.

I originally ordered bananas, but the store called and said no bananas, so I splurged on the cookie dough.

I'll take that quarter. We felt very .... disconnected. They changed their lineup and need to win.

Still up 4 at the end. I'll count that as a win.

OG is what happens when a geek gains height muscles and athleticism. Literally. And he looks like it. Just awkward gait and movement. The kid is very smart.

KAT was dreadful/totally ineffectual that quarter.

The amount of poor/disappointing play-off performances he is putting in is starting to rack up

Knicks look a step behind too often.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

These end of quarter interviews and so unnecessary and pointless. Let the players focus on the game.

Wright can still play defense. It's inexcusable Thibs hasn't used him at all.

I keep waiting for Mathurin to step up and … he’s just not.

Dudes mentality seems built for the playoffs, but it’s just not happening for him.

Towns gets zero foul calls and not for lack of trying. He’s driving hard frequently every game
