post game - that sucked

[3toheadmelo]

I'm a big IQ fan...I was even promoted to Vice President last night for half.

I am just anti payton.

how can you say such a thing . I was such a fan I was stupid to think the Rose trade wouldn't be good because it would take important time away from IQ.

sham don’t fall for this. he’s trying to buy his way back into team iq so he can sabotage us.

Have we parsed through enough of the minor issues that we can just spend the rest of the thread bashing Elf?

Elf's horrible but what is the response here? Thibs wants to play him and he apparently is going to keep playing him.

It's like Jimmy Butler said in Game of Zones (2:46) - "**** YOU LORD THIBODEAU YOUR ROTATIONS ARE ****!!!"

nah according to people, its about who finishes. Time to give IQ or Frank a shot.

About 99.9% of what you said

Knicks lost a bunch of close games too. I don't see you bringing up those as sign of bad luck... Their net rating is top 10 in the league. They are performing in line with what they should be expected to do. If anything them being the 6 seed is more bad luck than good luck considering they are performing a whole 2.5 points better than the Heat per 100 possessions and yet the Heat are outperforming their expectations given that and have a higher record than they really should.

So stop with the fuqqing cap to push your BS agenda that has no facts to it other than to just troll and contribute to the chit storm here.

Our road record is bad. Our opponent shooting luck is the most fortunate in the league. We punched a LeBron less Laker's team in the mouth and hurt our hand. Why "should we have won" this game last night? If they had LeBron and Schroeder we lose by 15. If we had Mitch maybe we get 5-6 points back?

We are 0-9 vs. the 76ers, Heat and Brooklyn. I am a Knicks fan but you're kind of kidding yourself if you think this is a "great team". Unless your definition of "great team" is a slightly below .500 team in a weak East that would crawl into the 8th seed in a normal season.

So you're bringing up 9 games we lost by single digits to prove that the Knicks are lucky? Against the top 2 seeds in the conference and the team that made the finals year?

Do you even understand your own argument?

Guy is a clown.. I think he’s low key a prognosis fanboy who still hangs around any way

[Jimmit79]

randle had a great game but also didn't, he has to stop these 1 on 1/personal matchups.

pass the ball like you've done all season.

also obi has played defense well enough that thibs has to see randle/obi frontcourt, even if it's for 2-3 minutes.

not his fault rj and bullock missed open 3’s. Randle was really the only reason why we were in this game. he carried us on both ends.

Preach the truth so RJ fanatics can stop passing blame to someone else

Cathartic bashing

Fair enough. Screw that guy! Why does Thibs still play him?! He's awful!

[snadler]

IF Burks and IQ are back tomorrow which my guess would be no, but if they are, I'd definitely use the last 3 games to transition ELF out of the lineup. The easy answer is move Rose into the starting lineup, but if Thibs doesn't like that, play Frank or Burks to start and then still bring Rose and IQ off the bench. Enough is enough, as a coach, you want to give your team the best chance of winning, and every time Thibs starts Payton, it's the opposite effect, every stat, analytics as shown above backs that up...

[HarthorneWingo]

Yeah, I remember all that Dennis Smith, Jr. smack Melo talked back in the day. I think he needs to try harder.

you mfers I’m trying to be nice here

So, ah, what'd you think of Frank's no-look pass to Taj for slamma jamma?

[HarthorneWingo]

Y'all are going to dance for Frank when all is said and done.

[thebuzzardman]

This is our whole system. Julius, Derrick make a play. Mitch, Nerves block a shot.

It's why he only plays but so many guys.

I wonder what he learned during his sabbatical and watching the Warriors. It certainly wasn't motion offence.

Yes, this Knick team is so laden with offensive studs they should be leading the league in scoring.

Or you know just have a motion offence that emphasizes ball movement and body movement.

I've seen more ball and player movement as the season has gone on. Alas, Kenny isn't here to run the princeton offense

When he's on the Mavericks?

[frothbrain]

IQ/Rose
Reggie/Burks
RJ/Frank
Randle/Obi
Noel/Gibson

10 man rotation that the coach could adjust based off in game performance instead of running the same fixed rotation and minutes, 72 games, like the simpleton he is.

Rome wasn't built in a day.

This is a great team considering the expectations and development.

OK, I think we differ on the definition of "great". I'm also happy with the development this year, RJ looking like he can be a high end starter and his shooting coming around, Randle going from a bad contract to an All Star, salvaging the Marcus Morris experiment into Quickly all really positive.

[thebuzzardman]

I have to admit to enjoying the negative energy after losses

No, I'm not arguing anything I'm just citing really basic facts.

I'm pointing out that we're 0-9 against the only 3 teams in the conference that anyone would consider contenders.

But you've got people saying we're "great". So I'm trying to reconcile that, maybe great means "we made the playoffs" to people which is fine. I don't think we're close to great. If we're great what are the Lakers who won the title? Mega great?
