Re: PG: Knicks vs. Pacers: Gross
Low effort on defense.
Brunson too selfish in the 4th. Gotta trust his teammates.
Brown with two crucial mistakes… playing Clarkson over Kolek. And not putting Alvarado in for Brunson when we were down 1 with 5 left in OT. Brunson offered zero pressure there.

It’s just inexcusable losing to the Pacers and regressing on the defensive end once again.
Kolek > Clarkson. The two PG lineups work.
Was wondering why Clarkson was even in the game. They had Nembhard and McConnell in at the same time, we can't have Kolek and Alvarado in?

Re: PG: Knicks vs. Pacers: Gross
Whenever there's more iso instead of ball movement and playing for each other it's not good for us. Anyway, great use of the trade deadline.

I just can't fault our all star PG who had 40 pts, 8 assists and 5 rebounds. Plus 3 for nerds.

Shamet can hit his 3s but not starter minutes long... he can have his moments, but he's more of an off the bench not starter quality sniper. Deuce woulda been in the game instead of Shamet
This loss was on JB and Shamet, they hit their 3s at the end but both missed too many shots earlier
As for Jose remember he's played most of his career in a losing environment. He just needs to carry it over, play his game translated to a winning environment, which is easier said than done, and will take time.

Yeah, guys got to move. If they're static statues, what's JB supposed to do?

Re: PG: Knicks vs. Pacers: Gross
KAT’s constant complaining is so annoying to watch. He has the emotional maturity of an 11 year old.
Brunson needs to stop playing hero ball. When they were winning he was playing within the offense. These bad habits are annoying to watch.
Give Clarkson’s minutes to Kolek.

Re: PG: Knicks vs. Pacers: Gross
Soft, soft, soft. How is the consistent effort on defense not there against THIS team? Every Pacers match-up should have been circled on their calendars in their own blood.
We need to do anything we can to swap out this soft attitude and get some killers on this soft team. I'd even trade for someone like a washed Draymond next year at least he can hate and hold a grudge.

Team could've won if they had Kolek playing over Clarkson.

This win will be what causes the Pacers to lose their pick to the Clippers, we're playing 5-D chess people.

Brown makes no sense. The double undersized pg lineups have worked. Clarkson was benched and collecting dnps for a reason. Kolek should be playing within Alvarado or Brunson in stretches. He earned his minutes in the rotation unlike Clarkson.

Re: PG: Knicks vs. Pacers: Gross
That clankfest by JB towards the end of regulation was painful to watch. Once he misses two consecutive shots, we have to look at a different play other than iso hero ball JB.

Re: PG: Knicks vs. Pacers: Gross
Fact is, it’s already a permanent disaster that they’d think to bench TKO
Not even about TKO
Knicks never learn. It feels like the root of it is rotten — there’s no fixing it. Deuce became a good player and then they did the same thing
Alvarado and Shamet are basically third stringers
Not that TKO is some god send but sends the wrong message and has ripples … not only directly in the offense but in morale, the importance of ball movement, and a team that can incorporate the game of a young player instead of getting some crap to replace him at all costs

Re: PG: Knicks vs. Pacers: Gross
No panic, Nocers get their season trophy, we move on to prepare the postseason.
But the D needs to be fixed, 124 in regulation is piss poor D against any team.
