Supposedly Dolan is willing to let him back in if he drops the suit. And we know Oakley..... that ego is as big as Cleveland.

Every time we think we’ve found something and have an understanding with Thibs, the next game he goes away from what worked.

I’ll believe it’s not a fluke adjustment when it happens consecutively.


I said he didn’t want to go away with what worked to get us to the conference finals and yall said no he needs to be proactive and just change shittu just because and now it’s we have to keep going with what worked :lol:

We won the last game so I would be shocked if he changes anything

I mean JVG, I scream 8/12 months a year about thibs and am pretty sure I have high blood pressure because of how much I curse him every game

Reminds me of when Jimmit would get banned for anti RJ posts. How do yall get away with spamming far more unhinged Thibs posts all day :lol:


Because the majority of the Knick fans DO NOT WANT THIBS
We don’t care about him as a person, but we need a championship coach because we are starving for a ring

The Knicks have the formula to beat them now. The pressure will be on them. Halifraud should have never made the choke sign because every game
they dont close out or lose -makes him think- I cant choke. I will never hear the end of it.

It seems that Carlisle was aware of this during his postgame interview. Glad to see it!

I seriously doubt that. The folks that want him fired are often loud, abrasive and some are even rooting for a loss to increase the chance of him getting fired.

Rational people avoid ruminations and conversations about something that isn’t going to happen. It’s a waste of keystrokes.

Huh? There’s an entire thread dedicated to fire Thibs that’s over 80 pages long. Just because you think Thibs is a good coach, and he stumbled into this lineup doesn’t negate that you might not have noticed for the majority of the season the grumblings from Knick fans have gotten louder. Have a look at any Knick media content creators. From Knicks fan tv to into the Knicks verse or Knicks nation, they’ve said the same thing all year. As CP said, from KFTV who is connected within the organization, Thibs is on thin ice. Do you consume content outside of the forums or do you just rely and trust what we type here? Respectfully.

What are you doubting? Cause I can point you toward a thread that has all the gripes Knick fans have with him. Here are just a few

1. Lack of development of a bench
2. Not knowing how to develop young players
3. Continually falling back to his rigid formulaic approaches (see hart still playing when it should be Mitch, Shamet deuce or Delon eating those minute)
4. Lack of offensive creativity or a playbook to create easy looks for players instead of iso ball
5. Not play zone defense or different defensive schemes to mask the shortcomings of KAT and Brunson

People connected within the organization have also said after the game 4 loss, he’s coaching on thin ice. I want a ring. If he brings us one this year, then I’ll give him his flowers. Otherwise you need to continually progress
But the goal is the ring. There are other avenues other than just these forums that allow the Knick fan voices to be heard, it’s not just forums anymore, do u have a look at Knick social media content creators? It ain’t 1994 anymore bro

We had a months running sample size that the starters defense was ass. We wanted change since it wasn’t yielding great results in the playoffs either.

He made some adjustments out of desperation and it has worked. But sometimes he doesn’t still with his adjustments that are forced out of desperation and/or foul trouble. He often reverts back to his comfort zone.

We want him to stick to what’s working OUTSIDE his comfort zone (2 bigs lineup, going deeper into his bench, calling timeouts quicker as soon as things start to go south, etc.)

If we can get off to a similar fast start like game five, it could have an even more pronounced effect in the hostile environment of Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Pacers thrive on their home crowd’s energy, which fuels their transition-heavy, high-scoring attack. However, if the Knicks can jump out to an early lead in the first quarter—the building could go quiet. It will come down to our ability to slow the game down and control the tempo from the tip - forcing Indiana into an uncomfortable half-court game.

A silent arena could sap the Pacers’ momentum, making their young core second-guess their shots and tighten up under pressure.

I’d agree about him creating extra pressure for himself but he had a really good G4. Last night he was sort of out of it but not like he was proactively terrible.
