Not having a secondary ball handler was always our weakness and it was eventually going to expose us.

But the look forward is very scary. Bloated cap sheet, no picks for the next 6 years. All built around a high usage, undersized guard who turns 29 this summer.


They will come into next season running the offense the way they did with Julius during the 2023-2024 season, by having it run through KAT if he's still on the roster, and have Jalen be the closer.

Is that supposed to give us confidence?


Less usage for the PG to do everything when he's the smallest player on the court.

Looks like we have a Karen here who can’t take a joke :lol:

Homophobia isn't a joke. This is 2025. Please grow up. You wouldn't post this about any other Knicks players but because KAT sounds funny sometimes when he talks everyone wants to make homophobic jokes about the guy. It's not funny and it's not cool. This is 2025, grow up.

Dude crying about homophobia from a pic that went viral on Twitter. Clearly you don’t know what homophobia means and you also live under a rock apparently. Really weird behavior. But that’s expected from you anyways.

You can’t judge the success of KAT and Brunson off of one series matchup

The coach gotta go. Another coach can make this work, there's been plenty of teams with success with 2 bad defenders.

But obviously if it's those 2 they're keeping Brunson. He's the Captain and took that team friendly deal, zero shot he gets moved

He is mad Obi playing well and getting into the Finals.

we had like 2 straight seasons before this where our offensive strategy was throw anything at the rim and our bigs and Hart will get the rebound

and that somehow was a better offensive strategy than what came out of 2 pure offense all stars and 2 two way forwards

Both if you change the coach… otherwise trade them both if the love for Thibs transcendens all

Haliburton is worse on offense but it doesnt matter for them… and btw we drafted Obi before him

Their only good defender is Mathurin… the rest are just keep fighting and hustling

now that the season is over, gotta say this

i am disappointed in Mikal. To be fair, maybe this is not his real form, but still, we should have seen plenty of games where he justifies those 5 picks

Hey, I was pretty disappointed over our guys this game. I feel like we left a lot on the court. We fought like hell then stopped and I’m not a one foot in guy.

Offseason priorities:

-Get a 2nd ball handler at the wing
-Rejigger the bench (more big wings/more minutes for Kolek and McCullar Jr.)
-Get a different coach (Karen Thibodeau's systemic playcalling is abhorrent)

Yup.

I also think they’re gonna have a talk with him about doing something with the offense. There needs to be a way to make much easier scoring possessions. You get rid of KAT you’re basically at square 1 again unless you get a Swiss Army knife type of player but where you gonna find that?

There you go again pretending you don't get the point and are innocent. It's not going to work. You're being homophobic posting KAT as a female with long nails and feminine, which goes a long with the plenty of other homophobic jokes made at KATs expense all because he sounds funny sometimes.

Grow tf up brother. You're too old to be acting like this at this point.
