I’m not blaming Thibs solely, that’s the difference between you n me… I don’t have a agenda lol… the players get the blame on poor offensive execution, missed FT’s, and turnovers… Thibs issue was the defense.

Thing is defense was the reason we lost… we could’ve not scored and still held onto that huge lead if Thibs had simply called for them to switch on defense instead of putting guys in drop and forcing guys to fight thru screens when it obviously wasn’t working against Nesmith’s historic run. I don’t know how much better I can spell this out.

Players trying but failing to execute pales in comparison to being too incompetent to realize you’re not putting your players in proper position to succeed and being too stubborn to adjust.

Thibs basically did control players like a ps5 controller at times… it’s called coaching Thibs sees our guys are getting killed chasing Nesmith thru screens, he should know to make the call to switch instead. But he didn’t.

I mean look at this, it’s pitiful:




This isn’t rocket science, and I’ve repeated it 1000 times already.

HEZI trying to come to Thibs rescue with his 2 cents is about as valuable as Monopoly money at a strip club

Btw, Mikal isn’t taking shots at KAT, that’s an assumption you’re making with agenda laced lenses, and the players take ownership all the time, they very rarely if ever blame the coach in public, so there’s no value in anything you posted there.

I’ll leave you with this one question, which I know you won’t answer… if after Nesmith made the first two of his 6 threes, Thibs called for our guys to switch and chase him off the 3pt line, you realize they would’ve ran out of time on the game clock and not have been able to bring it to OT with that dagger by Hali, right?

And did I mention Thibs got fired and that KAT is still here?

I win.. again…

Did you just say you don't have an agenda

Watch on YouTube

The players themselves already admitted it was their own fault for giving up the game lol Thibs cant control them this aint nba 2k. be fr

Yeah you Conor mcgregor, Im floyd mayweather mf undefeated!

Dawg I already addressed all that!!! lol

U def reading and repeating yourself like Mayweather




I win again

You haven't addressed why the timberwolves traded for Gobert

And you lost again!

I'm looking at some pics and that looks stunning. A lot of views of the surrounding big boys? There's so much to explore in Washington. Glacier would be amazing.



Just had a big steak with the last of my chanterelle stocks from last season. Just in time for this season

I've been at it for over 25 years without incident. There was a guy who picked for restaurants where I grew up and he showed me the ropes because I had a car and he was a dirty hippie without a car. Worked out well for me. Most of my standbys are basically like ID'ing blueberries at this point but there are a few when I branch out that I definitely run by experts.

The west coast is actually a lot safer than the east coast in a lot of ways. There is just less fungal diversity (but probably more mass) so easy to learn the good ones and the ones you REALLY want to avoid.

Having that mentor has to have made you a lot more confident. Ive read some literature and went with some dirty hippies(sans credentials) so they didnt instill much confidence.

Funny now that I think about it most of my mushroom picking was for blue-ringers when I was in HS. Which was actually the most risky. We were dumb kids picking pounds of wet nasty shrooms.

So do have an assortment of different kinds you hunt or a few specific ones?

Yeah, the psychedelic ones are actually pretty tricky. I don't really know them and they're pretty small and gilled, both factors riding up the degree of difficulty in IDing. I understand they stain pretty unmistakably but it's a rough gateway.

There are roughly 50 edible species I can identify and I'm 100% confident on about 40 of those. The majority of what I pick is 15 species or so that are super easy with a little training... and matsutake which is a little harder. And they're not all out at once or in the same places.

COW, for example, is really easy because it's bright orange with a yellow outer band, a shelf mushroom (goes directly off of trees, logs, and roots), a polypore (no gills like jack o lanterns), and softer than most shelf mushrooms when you want to eat it. Its peak season out here is August/September. Once you have those characteristics in mind there's not anything you're mistaking it for.



The mentor was fantastic. He really knew his stuff. I remember picking one up because it was pretty and stark white and he hollered at me to put it down immediately. I know what it was now. One you don't come back from.

We have a legendary mushroom forager among us. Ngl, jealous of your skills. Would be cool as hell to have stocks of shrooms. Love em.

The only way you'd get some people into nature is if these grew out there



So until then this is the only way they'd even touch grass

Why Thibs was fired and why he loves Thibs
Why Brown was hired and why he might be better than Thibs.
Brunson's role in the new offense.
Playoff Mikal and OG.
The assistant coaches.
Why practices are different under Brown.
Why he'd rather win 49 games than 53 games.
New coaches yet to be hired.
Predicts Knicks will win the East.
No axe to grind, just tons of insider info, stats, and knowledge.

This podcast with Fred Katz interviewed by Wosny Lambre of The Ringer is the best explanation of why they Knicks let Thibs go and why Mike Brown i their coach. Katz shed some light on the awkward dynamic between Thibs and two of his most important players. He also describes what the new assistant coaches will do.

Katz reveals that Sabonis is Jewish and Deni Avdija is, too. He's hyped.

He also goes into how JB is playing and why he's been playing Thibs' way, not his own way. He also describes the imbalance in minute distribution vs. the overall number of minutes played per player. Wosny challenged Fred and Fred had all the numbers and answers, and pretty much got Wosny over to his side. He even explains the exact difference between practices for the two coaches. Fred clearly was there with the team, during practices, in person. Who else good does that? This is the only sports podcast I've listened to in its entirety in a while.

Oh, you're doing what was in the design here. The second half of that sentence was really something though.
