so creative! really outside the box thinking!!!


To be fair starting burks at PG is pretty outside the box I don’t think anybody else in the world would do that

Starting the center that you had wild success with the prior season and benching the one that’s been losing his whole career is just a common sense thing to do, thank you Thibs!!!!!

We need to trade Burks so we can get McBride in the rotation

Alec Burks playing PG is laughable at this point, coz he's not a point guard.

Noel starting over Mitch? My goodness! What a shake up!

Burks reminds me of the Morris situation. I really like Burks as I did w/ Morris. every contender could use Burks. we could probably fetch a solid pick for him

Boston can absorb him into their trade exception, I'd send him their for their 1st rounder

get Grimes more minutes and let's finally get to see McBride

HEZI wrote:At least there's no Center on their team that is capable of having a career night against Robinson. Then again with how awful he is you never know what kind of night Poeltl might have against him. That automatically gives us a higher chance of winning

What's with agendas? awful? Why bc he doesn't get out on 3 point shooters? Who on our starters does. Its a terrible scheme. They all crash the ball.

Mitch hasnt had a single game where he was awful. Even not being in top condition he provides more for us than Noel. Our first handful of games we dont win w.o Mitch.

Never change Thibs, never change. Slowly going to the all old people lineup. RJ you next son.

Broken center for broken center, who cares. I guess Noel can guard stretch 5’s better.

This isn’t your grandfather fizdale’s 2019 Knicks anymore folks. It’s time to shittu or get off the pot. Mitch didn’t want to win starting at center 3 years in a row after 17-42 12-15 and 11-12 starts. Next man up. It’s accountability time. Gotta do what’s best for the team. It’s the genesis of nerlensanity. Multi-year deal, and won the starting job. A movie worthy road to redemption story
