He could try eating a **** sandwich and lifting a dumbbell every now and then.

Officer Bridges has been working deep undercover for months, this is his first statement, and it's a damning one. Thank you Mikal for your bravery and service to the minutes police, we award you Icy Hot.


"We on your bumper"


Thibs - "Okay -- 46 MINUTES FOR YOU@!" :lol:

Y’all think it’s a coincidence Mikal hasn’t looked the same this season?
He has to tone it down, to protect his body if he’s fighting thru screen after screen after screen AND play the highest minutes in the league
And y’all wonder why he hasn’t lived up to they hype

Maybe he thought nothing could be worse than the hate he gets from not living up to the 5 first round picks that he never asked to be traded for but I hope he is prepared for the level of hate that will come from the Thibs fanatics and trolls. Good luck :D

Playing basketball is not fun when you are already worn out from overuse and know you're about to go 100mph for another 48 minutes straight. You come out of the gates mentally defeated.

So glad Mikal called him out. You would think Dolan forcing him to play Huk would help Thibs catch the hint: PLAY THE BENCH. Now the players are publicly saying it, turning on the terrorist, and world is watching with keen interest.


Yep, you can see that none of these guys are happy when they’re playing.
OG and Mikal just look bewildered and sad on the court, They dont have a joy in them when they’re on the court, you can see they’re drained. I’m tired of this bumass coach, just ruins players along the way, when he’s the one that should be fired.


It's true. Leon went and got the 2 best 2 way wings in the league who are not superstars like LeBron & Giannis. This is like Dolphin fans rooting for Tua to play for (and get ) more concussions. :nod:

I would quibble with the following comment just to say the FO did sign some good guys, yes, but overall not enough size and balance. Too many guards not enough forwards of 6'8 or more

The Knicks front office put together a bunch of quality bench guys and he doesn’t use them enough.


I'd agree with u but we gotta deal with the NOW.

He probably remembered that he's extension eligible and can leave after next season if he wants, he has the leverage to stop the madness.


Or he might get traded next season for Bogey and Burks level players for speaking up :D


Nah, Thibs still has eyes for Elfrid! :-?

What quality? We have only 6 guys worthy of a championship roster's rotation. I get it we need to play the bench regardless to not burn out starters but our bench is still the worst in the league, this FO didn't do a good job at all to fill the bench


I'm sure they wanted to but the CBA really limits you especially a year after a couple big trades.

They will have to be savvy to find bench pieces through later draft picks and signings.

Also if thibs is still hear he's going to have to invest in young players...FO and Thibs will have to be on same page...if you draft Kolek/Dadiet/Huk guys those guys need to slowly earn minutes or investing in a top heavy roster isn't going to cut it.

Can't be like Kolek and Dadiet are picks and then just continue to play Cam Payne and Shamet over them. Yes maybe early on Payne and Shamet might be better but for the Knicks bench to be good player development with bench pieces will be very important over the next 3-4 years.


It all comes down to THIBS needs an INTERVENTION badly. Where is Dr. Drew when we need him? :D

Bridges airing dirty laundry and calling the coach out in public to cover up his subpar performances. Needs to be traded in the offseason

This quote from Thibs reminds me of when he defended the minutes last year by saying Hart only averaged 33 minutes like he didn't play him 40+ minutes for 4 months straight.

so Thibs is DEFINITELY managing Brunson and KAT. He knows where they rank in mpg

Which means HE HAS TO KNOW that Josh and Mikal are ranked #1 and #2, OG ranks #6, yet he continues to play them all those minutes
