That's the whole point, preparation for when they actually matter. That's what he's using preseason for. To build the right habits and chemistry for when the games matter.

preparation happens all over the place. Practice habits, film session, scouting. And yes preseason to a certain extent.

But its a long season (longer than last year). And you need your horses for the regular season + the playoffs if this is going to be a succesfull year. Playing guys regular season minutes in the preseason makes zero sense to me.

Also our young guys need some burn too because if there is an injury you would like guys like McBride/Grimes to actually have some run with some guys they may play with during the regular season.

Thibs also plays guys up 20 with a couple minutes in the regular season...is that building habits too or is thibs just a nut job with minutes. What makes him a great coach also is his biggest weakness, he plays every minute of every game to win. He has to learn from his CHI days...he burned those guys out, lets not do the same here. While most of the teams that are really successful treat the regular season as a build up to the post season.

It must be demoralising to come to and go hard at practices only to get >1 min playing time. Darko had it better under Larry Brown. I already feel for Deuce, Grimes... wtf does a rook gotta do? At least Sims got his in previous games. I don't think IQ, or even Toppin had it this hard last year... and this is just preseason!

well cause we actually needed production from them. Thankfully the Knicks did a decent job filling out the roster to a point we don’t have to rely on rookies.

Gunna be sparse playing time for them if everyone stays healthy

RJ Barrett is a very good role player.

Hopefully Mitch and Noel been getting pushed to shoot as well. Watch out for that. Atlanta wasnt guarding our centers.

Thibs: as punishment for your lazy play I'm leaving you in the game until you get it together

Team: and when we get it together???

Thibs: I, um, reward you by leaving you in the game.

Every other aspect was ok. Scoring and shooting was bare butt. That slow 2 step dragging feet Euro is not working for him.

The lesson I got was Randle is still going to carry. At least he only played 33 minutes. Hopefully Kemba carries as well. Fournier took the night off. RJ is starting to be a spot up shooter and im getting nervous.
