GT: Knicks @ Celtics , Game 2 Wednesday 7:00pm ET

[Deeeez Knicks]

Just let Tatum keep chucking step backs and stay glued to DWhite.

[Zenzibar]

All starters negative but Mitch team high plus 7. Thibs really took him out instead of getting them in foul trouble first. It was 8 minutes.

You see what I mean?

[WargamesX]

Maybe I'm dumb but why not let mitch get them in the penalty early every quarter? Ain't that smart?

Mitch can’t play 48 minutes with his conditioning.

What conditioning? Mitch is ready to play a high intensity 25 minutes and that should be good to keep Boston out of the paint.

That’s what I mean. If they want to play hack a Mitch let them do that in the 3rd and 4th , it’ll hurt them more to do it.

[Jeff Van Gully]

Lead only got up to 16 because the refs were giving Boston momentum

They don't look that good, Boston. We have to keep the aggression - we are playing like we are not afraid of them

they **** on our runs

[Jay10]

When are we going to break out the X factor? towns pick and Pop with intension to let it fly.

Not necessary when the Celtics don't have anyone that can stop him below the free throw line.

Still a possible X factor to get their bigs scrambling opening up the lane for easier shots. I do want him down low but it’s something to consider.

The offense will look much better with Shamet on the court instead of Hart, since Towns is now forcing the Celtics into double and triple-teaming him.

I don’t even think it was hack a Mitch and Hart came in played bad for a span. We will get over it.

[Guano]

Fck the refs

Hit some shots

[F N 11]

Just let Tatum keep chucking step backs and stay glued to DWhite.

Tatum settling best thing. I don’t care if Brown want to force it I rather him than Tatum getting superstar calls.

[Iron Mantis]

They are just going inside on everything cause Thibs killed the momentum by taking Mitch out. So what if they foul Mitch and he misses both, I'll take the mounting fouls on the Celtics anytime.

These refs are not calling it and that doesn't help but Mitch was giving us life.

Facts. Thibs getting out-coached tonight.

It's not even about being out-coached, he actually helped Mazzulla out. I'm actually encouraged that we're down by 10.

Out-coached in the sense that Mazulla made a coaching move to manipulate Thibs into making a lineup change.....Thibs then panicked and made the coaching choice to oblige him.

[Fat]

Defense needs to be way better

Just need 1 3 from Shamet. Maybe Deuce will give us one we will band together.

[Jeff Van Gully]

wulang. mi clip still ram up to di bumboclaaaa

[robillionaire]

Also, we just can’t afford to make the stupid mistakes we’ve made. Throwing it out of bounds unforced and whatnot. We can’t do that

[Zenzibar]

You see what I'm saying? The tactic that Mazzulla is implementing, espcially fouling in the 2nd, is actually a bad tactic. It actually benefits the Knicks, if Thibs can see it too.

[Adelheid]

The fix is in this game

I don’t like to talk like this about officiating. Thibslam forbids blaming the officials for the outcome.

But, damn.

One of the games where we are playing 5 v 8

i always thought that whenever knicks play its 5 vs 8 in favor of the other team, like always

[Wildcat]

My mind still can't go over that the Knicks are being out rebounded.

[Jay10]

Thibodeau should let the Celtics hack-a-mitch and when they get 1 foul away from being in the penalty, take him out and attack the Celtics in the paint, since they are now going to be hesitant to defend.

[Guano]

Mikal pls

[Clyde_Style]

Never seen so many balls go in and out of the cylinder

[Capn'O]

9 isn't bad all things considered.

we won the quarter

And Brunson has still been fairly quiet.
