We had no answer for Giannis and I doubt we ever will. More concerming for me is we went back to iso ball in the second half. I pointed my fingers last year. New coach same habits. That needs to change to have any kind of success.

This season might get ugly, possibly fast.

Remember, this was a championship roster. Only held back by the coach. We’re too good for a mere conference finals. Too stacked. We should have won it all.

Mike Brown is like if realgm was a coach. I mean no disrespect and we all very fine people.

I could criticize the players but we haven’t been doing that for a while now. So no. This is a super team. There’s only one possible reason we can lose

We haven’t looked good in any of the 4 games and are lucky we aren’t 0-4.

Anyway I hope we pull through the early season mess somehow. good luck Knicks.

Kolek was good at times, but he's not as good defending strong ball handlers.

Clarkson did his thing, better game from him.

Huk looked outmatched.

Hart was abysmal.

Onto the next one. Sweep this one out of the way and regroup.

KAT needs to wake up and watch film with those stupid fouls.

Sounds like you miss Thibs playing him 37 minutes and riding Hart like Secritariat.

i'm not longing for thibs ball i just noticed brunson isn't being brought in to steady the ship in moments he could easily afford to play

Sure its only game 4 but they haven't shot well outside of 2 quarters in the last 3 games

Kat looks terrible

And the offense goes to complete sht when Brunson sits.

We are generating clean looks for jHart and Shametwhich seems unproductive.

Our bench still looks terrible.

Kat and Hart aren't right. I'd rather get healthy than run out.

1) KAT is shooting poorly this season (40% from the field). I wonder if the quad or his finger is bothering him. He is 52% career shooter. He might get in track when he gets healthier.

2) We don't have any replacement for KAT and Mitch. Huk is not ready to play extended minutes. He sucks right now.

We have a mediocre head coach and the worst highest paid big man in the league

The team looks alarming, Mikal has somehow elevated to the second cog, where as KAT has completely plummeted

If KAT nor Hart are not healthy then sit, we will lose but having a player at half strength or less is just as dumb because we lose anyway

KAT and Hart are clearly injured. Sit them as long as it takes. Get Deuce back and hopefully Mitch returns and sprinkle in some Diawara

Brunson has a hammy already. Scary.

Those might be losses if Brunson ends up missing any time

We dont have consistent enough shooters to play this system
It doesn’t matter if we shoot 50 3’s when we can only make 8-10 of them
This team has somehow looked worse than last year

Shamet shot almost 40% from 3 last year and 4-9 from 3 tonight and he still can't catch a break from you? :D
