Good. Clown this team, Hali and Toppin. If they didn't want to get clowned, they should have played better, harder and smarter.

Obi probably is better

He’s in a small role and can play well



Leon Rose in a nutshell. trades Obi for 2 lessor of 2nds to conference rivals. Then trades 5 1s for Bridges.

Awful defense from him too.


Mikal Bridges was awful this series. He had his moments in the Boston series. He was pretty bad against Detroit. And he was underwhelming all season.

It’s clear as day that the Knicks picked the wrong guy to go all in for. I’m starting to question if they picked the right guy to go all in around (Brunson).


Mikal is not a full presser. Thibs mimicking because you doesn't know what the **** to do.

How many of you think Kolek could do what Hali has done facilitating? IMO with consistent playing time he could get there. Not ever gonna happen with Thibs though.

Don't worry. There will be a report about Brunson or KAT needing surgery this off-season and we can once again pretend like we would have won it all if we were 100%

I realize who KAT is on the playground... he's that type of player that just does some petty sh.it on the court cuz there's no refs. BUT THERE ARE 3 fcking refs watching your stupid arse.

Thibs can’t even design a play to beat a press
KAT has been in drop coverage since October
We don’t play a lick of zone to cover his deficiency
Bench was never developed
No offensive playbook or Multiple actions
At what point do we not give Thibs the boot?

I'm more of less over Game 1. They let that game play with their heads too long.

I think Thibs could have challenged the Deuce play

That alone — **just that** — enough to fire him
