Knicks @ Rockets 12/16/21 8PM

[Jalen Bluntson]

Deuce and McBride should get start back court minutes.

[TerrenceClarke]

Great game by Randle 21 6 and 6. 3 3s. That’s our leader!!!

[B8RcDeMktfxC]

Friar Suck with the crappiest 23 points ever

More driving, more 2 point shots, more assists (coming off more driving) than his season (per36) averages. Yeah, his D is bad, but the usage has been horrible and that's what is souring the milk.

Now, Randle, that's weird.

starting lineup still sucks against a decimated rockets team.

you can't fix it. i won't fool myself into thinking starting mcbride will. we saw it in the 2nd half. it didn't work.

wally telling them little kids to take that l home with them was the best thing he ever said lol

Easily the funniest thing he's ever said and there's no debate. That horrible soul actually made me laugh for the first time in my life

Breaking up Randle and Fournier is a must.

Knicks have so many flaws though, it's impossible to put a "right group" of 5 out there.

IQ with the slow dribble and 3pt shot from improbably distance to ensure McBride didn't have a chance at a 10th assist

10 assist for McBride or he shoots to get his 8th 3pt shot…. It wasn’t even a tough choice

Mcbride actually had 10 assists. they credited an assist to IQ on a pass from Deuce to Taj with 7:54 left in the 4th

Wally the kind of fukker that would play a friendly game with some 8 year olds and keep hitting 3's doing endzone dances, Sad human being,

well kemba is out of the lineup and it stinks

RJ had COVID and he not in there anymore

Mitch was replaced by Noel and that isn't helping

there are only two other guys left....

Randle and Fournier combo is some of the weakest, most beta basketball I have ever seen

Kemba had defensive issues.

But I think Randle and Fournier, the fit is bad. Particularly since Randle decided to quit playing defense this year and Fournier is bad at it. But in spite of both guys being decent passers for their position, Randle and Fournier seem like a bad fit together on offense too.

I'd trade Burks for a pick, make Fournier 6th man, promote catch and shoot/defense Grimes, start McBride as well.
Rose and IQ still the guards off the bench, with Fournier.

All seriousness, Thibs should try a Deuce/IQ back court with Randle. If he wants to play Frenchie have him play alongside Burks and Rose. Then use Grimes as a defensive wing against teams that have too much size at 2 guard for A small back court to guard against.

Don't leave out Burks.

[robillionaire]

If we start McBride IQ RJ and bench Fournier we’d look a lot better. Rose Burks Fournier bench .

i think they know by now they have to move fournier, i just don't know if they can. maybe a contender that is thin on bench talent will take him but i doubt it.

Yeah very solid. You at least have to break up Fournier and Randle lol.

But then one of the kids is clever and tells Wally he has teeth like a horse and it looks like two Amazon rain forest caterpillars over his eyes and he has an awesome story for life.

the ball was moving because Randle was out though. They will go back to deferring to Randle which everyone does.

Even Mitch was thriving because the ball was moving.

Frank gave off the vibes of someone who could be better if he put it all together, but it is kind of funny how McBride is actually able to do much of what we just hoped Frank could do.
