when you have a dominant big man like Randle - who can do everything - it definitely puts a lot of pressure on opposing defenses.

So have a lot of us who are going to watch. I mean, isn't that part of being a "hardcore" fan? The willingness and desire to watch the team when it sucks and is developing into something special, as opposed to watching it when it already is something special.

Do you at the end of the day, but the mindset you're taking on is certainly that of a casual. And there's nothing wrong with that.

Y’all are too sensitive. I’m probably going to watch the game anyways and was half joking. I will be honest and that obviously I’m less excited to watch.

But don’t dare call me a casual. Foh.

Never did brother :lol:. Would never say that to a regular poster, it's probably the biggest insult someone could receive, as ridiculous as that sounds.

I think people that are triggered (not all but some) about guys saying they won’t watch tonight’s game because Scottie isn’t playing is because it highlights how mid the team is as a whole, that a rookie is basically our primary selling point/only thing worth watching. Even on the Knicks forum a couple guys were saying how they were only worried about Scottie and that they’re fortunate that he isn’t playing.

I’m gonna watch because I watch like 99 percent of the games anyways. Lol I’m addicted to the sport and that’s that. Plus OG and Banton seeing what they’ll do.

I'd start Banton. With Scottie out, we need to replace some flow / playmaking

I’ll still watch the game. Would be interesting to see what this team plays like without Scottie.

Man what a bummer that Barnes is out. Hope it’s just a few games at most.

I do think the Knicks are overrated, but without Barnes and Pascal this is almost definitely a loss.

Hopefully we can keep it competitive for most of the game and steal it at the end.
Nick Nurse recounting his first meeting with Kawhi:
“We could have gone forever. (Raptors management) kept knocking on the door and I was like, ‘A couple more minutes.’ Because we were really into it."
