Meanwhile Cole came into the building and absolutely destroyed us

congrats on cole

This would’ve never happened under Elfrid’s leadership

Thibs made some curious decisions tonight.

• Why was Fournier iced in the 4th?
• What did Burks do that warranted being ridden so hard?
• Why wasn’t Obi weaponized in the open court?
• Why isn’t Kemba being schemed to be hidden on defense?
• When our vets don’t have it, keep them on their toes and hold them accountable by going to Grimes and McBride if/when vets come out flat

I guess they took too many threes last game and ran out of powder and were shooting blanks.

We missed shots and looked tired. I don't know why really, but it is what it is.

In the first half, we just didn't feel like playing. Cole Anthony scored 21 in the first half because our bigs refused to respect him on screen roll. That's effort.

We could be heading into next week 2-3 if we keep playing defense like this.

We live and die by the 3pt shots. Today, we were bad. 13/48. Outside Rose and Kemba, we were 6/35. Randle 2-10, Burks 1/6, RJ 1/7. Evan 2-7.

Me not getting too down because everyone outside of Rose and Mitch played well below how well I know they should for the rest of the year:

You talk like that you gonna get the other team’s best effort. We slept on them. We not good enough for that yet.

The 4th quarter was telling if we had the players to be an elite team. Usually when teams take a bottom dwelling team lightly and it becomes a game, the elite team would then put the clamps on and run away with it at the last 3-4 minute of the game. The Knicks didn't do that.

So many missed opportunities.

Missed free throws, and as pointed out, tonight they forced the 3, they weren’t in rhythm..one pass and shoot..

we don't have a real defensive anchor with Nerlens injured he was the keystone of the entire defense last year

Got punked period. Front office won’t stand pat with only Julius to depend on. Out coached and out played. Still can’t guard stretch 4s. Opposing teams spam pick and rolls. RJ plays like Bullock.

Thibs stop telling opposing teams that we want to drive and kick. Randle pass out the damn double team and stop trying to do too much. Have a good one fellas.

Rose is still our highest IQ and best player.

we all seen this, so not why try Deuce and Grimes who's fresh and most likely will bring a ton of energy? Why be stubborn and change nothing.

I’ve been defending Kemba, but he really needs to up his play. Going -14 in 19 minutes is very bad. His defense especially off ball has been horrible. We would of been up double digits going into the half, but Kemba slacked and the Magic hit multiple 3s.

He has played better team defense in Boston’s system so I know he is capable. But his effort compared to the rest of the team is noticeable and unacceptable
