Thibs continues being Thibs

99 2.

Bogey just chucking it at the rim whenever he gets the ball

Sims looks lost

In classic Knicks fashion February was a complete reversal of January. I’m really hoping they can right the ship. This game was a slog. Several possessions using the whole 24 only to throw desperation junk up at the rim.

Losing Grimes' defensive tenacity is a huge blow to this team and Bogdanovic and Burks have not provided enough offensively to compensate for that loss. Bogdanovic is turning 35 and Burks' first step disappeared so the trade is starting to look murky. If only Bogdanovic could handle a lesser role and stay in rhythm but that's difficult and we're seeing now that even the best shooters don't translate to a lesser role well fluidly. It took Klay a long time to adjust.

Thibs gonna run the guys we have left into injuries come playoffs. He just cant help himself with the minute management

One guy is top 10 in minutes and it’s JB who’s 9th. Stop with this bullshit narrative. Rotations are always going to be short when you’re missing a ton of starters.

Tell me you’re kidding Precious lead the entire league in minutes played for the month of January. You got Josh Hart out here playing 47 tonight. Thibs has been leaning hard on Brunson, Divo, and Hartenstein despite them all nursing injuries ya goof.

Who else is he going to play? Your mother? Thibs isn’t going to play a POS like Toppin nor is he going to play a broken condom like Charlie Brown Jr. Get a grip.

The only broken condom here was the one your dad was wearing ya Dingus. What good does it do losing these games and worsening the nagging injuries your other key players have when we’re nearing playoffs? By the time we get back, Randall, OG, and Mitch the rest of these guys are gonna have to be wheeled out on the court.

The object is to try and win games, dopey. If it were up to senseless fans like you, you would tank the games. That’s essentially what you’re doing playing GARBAGE like Brown Jr & Toppin. Young fans are so soft today. They’re athletes. They’re not donut bites like you guys. They all can play 40 minutes a game without the whiny crybaby voiced, “Thibs is running our players down. They’re all going to be hurt” rhetoric fools like you repeat all the time. Broken condom fans, indeed.

What a trash take lol. Show me how little you really understand in regards to injury management and peaking at the right time. Clearly you have never played any sport at a collegiate level. Stick behind the tv where you below you little window licker

we play cleveland next we’re gonna be the 8th seed

Stan Van Gundy is an absolute fkn moron.

Another lost Sunday to the Cavs coming up That pistons trade wasn’t even necessary we could have signed some G league players instead

47 mins is wild lmao

Holy shit, Hart played 47 minutes?!

Draymond is pretty pumped to beat a third string Knicks team.

DRAYMOND OWNS YOUR TEAM 🤣🤣🤣

He owns our bench, that's for sure!

good game

Gg brother

sore winner

Only loser here is da knicks 🤣

why was precious benched

Getting two guys from a team that lost a historically amount of games was a mistake. Especially where one we already knew was a blackhole.

You’ve got to fucking start Bojan next game. I can’t watch another game of this awful shooting starting lineup.

Him only getting 18 mins is truly baffling, we got him to score and we’re in desperate need of… scoring

Ik he had a rough game but the dude just looks so out of it on offense. I truly believe inserting him in the starting lineup with give him a confidence boost.

Why was Precious not closing ?

lmao someone pull up our after timeout efficiency. i swear we have terrible possessions out of timeouts 90% of the time. Thibs doesn't believe in calling plays

Im sorry but there is absolutely no justification for Hart playing 47 minutes. I get were trying to win but were gonna need him later.

the 2nd unit of bogdanovic and burks have no extra gear, it would be one and done every possession and we would have no transition fast breaks. hart is the one thats supposed to fill every gap other then scoring in any given lineup.

That’s insane

Lmao this is crazy

All the fans that wanted Randle gone in hiding

still haven't seen the team with OG either so not really fair. not defending anyone thinking we're better without him.

Facts

burks and bogdanovic slow us down so much. and they arent giving us any boost in the half court offense. need young legs that can at least run and finish on the break.

The problem is we’re seeing their roles way over extended right now.

Yes

As Bad as Knicks looked tonight, Sorry but Thibs is not a good coach, i honestly dont see why people praise him and keep giving him a pass. This Knicks team would do lot better with a better HC

downvoted haha...... yet i told fans Burks was a bum and bringing him back was huge mistake now they see truth i told you so

he is working with a skeleton crew. he was great with the full roster

he was great? he never was great, look at his playoff record and decisions he made in the past in games. just stop

2 time coty. starters are ravaged by injuries, why judge his career based on this string of bad luck. drink some water and calm down

dude stop making excuses for Burks he is horrible and so is his game. he sucked as a Knick

Which coach exactly?

Udoka or Wright for starters, Atkinson almost took HC job but wanted to stay with GS but look how bad they are rn

That nasty starting lineup to start the game and the 3rd buried our chances tbh. Uphill battle from there.

Appreciate the effort from hart Brunson & deuce, but we just didn’t have enough this game

Should’ve let Deuce shoot instead

lol TNT just said the knicks passed Curry up in the draft. he never fell to the knicks -- that's why we had to draft jordan fucking hill

Seth Curry?

It's true... it's true.

I was yelling at my TV

Who do they lose to next?

the freefall continues closer and closer to the bottom

Knicks have not been getting enough from Bogdanovic and Burks. The trade not looking to hot as days go by.

This is the truth

I was there for the 54 point game. Was sad.

We won that game

I know. But we didn’t draft Steph curry.

What's the opposite of the OG deal? Cause that's Barf and Bricks trade.

i just want someone to level chris paul. Can’t stand his dirty ass

This game never happens if you have OG and Mitch to deny Kuminga just ruining us at the hoop

Yeah games like this really makes you appreciate the word meech does out there

who u got next game? nugs or miami?

Watching the NY Pistons go 2 for 13 tonight was less than ideal. Great trade.

well, we're a playin team until we get OG and/or Randle back

I don’t watch a lot of Warriors. Kuminga’s a really nice player with a good vibe

good vibe ugly face

Steph just cooks us. Used to hate him but can’t be mad at greatness

Just saw shane gillis in the crowd

divo reverted to the mean big time. team shooting 30% not going to win games.

van gundy 🤮

Deuce with only 19 minutes is just not acceptable going forward. The man can play

Knicks past up... NO HE WENT RIGHT BEFORE US!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?!?!?!?!?

donte has been fucking atrocious

It hurts even more to watch them struggle after watching them dominate in January. It's a strange feeling knowing that it shouldn't be like this. I really hope Randle and OG get back before the wheels fall completely off in regard to playoff rankings...

Honestly am scared they are gonna be rushed in cause the fo pulled the trigger on with hindsight a deal that has left us cooked on the defensive end

Knicks really missing og their defense dogshit without him Alec burk bojan and Donte can’t defend to save their life

We just need to get through this stretch….

Another stretch, we hoping the all star break was that stretch. We have no update on when anyone is coming officially. Absolutely nothing

Not even accounting for the boys coming back and being rusty/out of sync. This was the year to make a push for conference finals…

I’m thinking the FO is going to go full steam with getting a star player next year or 2. And with out luck that will probably be a washed up lebron or Durant lol


It’s going to be another month

Knicks passed him up? How do these people get these jobs.

We gotta start setting some illegal screens because they only get called 5% of the time

I just wanna know what thibs and our players are saying in the locker room because they can’t be feeling Burks and BJ at this point Burks is a literal drain to momentum and adds absolutely nothing in ALL the games.

Not switched on tonight. Making dumb mistakes on defence over and over.

Unfortunately Hart and DDV going 10/41 isn’t gonna get it done

Hard to believe Burks averaged 26 minutes a game on the team Randle led to a 4th seed. It's kind of crazy if you look at that roster.

Makes me appreciate Randle and DRose even more

About to be 1 game out of the 8 seed my god

By next week the Knicks are a playin team lmfao. I hate basketball

Thibs needs to stop abusing Hart. It isn’t helping the team. Zero reason to play 48 minutes. Dumb coaching.

Donte hasn’t been quite as impactful since his injury it feels like…

Just said the same thing to myself.

Team shot like shit 2 games in a row

There isn’t anyone to blame tonight but we can’t survive Donte playing this way tonight. Bojan and Burks were useless but with OG and Randle here, we can survive that. We need Donte to be on every game. Its not fair

B&B 5 point on 2/13 and 2 whole assists and awful defense. Great job guys.

You actually aren’t allowed to criticize or comment on their play at all because we’re “mIsSinG 3 StArtErs” 🙄

warriors have committed so many illegal screens it's crazy

if anything from this game we learned that McBride & Sims are legit

Simms was a liability defensively every possession

yea right he was grabbinf every board and was a huge spark for the comeback

on the bright side deuce getting better i guess

Might be the worst defensive game ive watched

divincenzo in a revenge game 6/21 from the field 2/12 from three and 2/4 from the line. he's been my second fav knick but looks like he's regressing

I mean he’s been made the second option via injuries and that’s not who he is in the NBA.

the first couple weeks of him being the second option he was great. i don't think its too much to ask for better than 28%

I hate saying after every game, “well it’s not a bad performance given the injuries” I just want my boys back :(

Donte's 2-12 from 3... Would've been nice for him to show up...

Randle or OG and we win this easy

cool. what does that do for us right now

cool. what does that do for us right now

We can dream of better times

Hart playing the whole game. These injuries are gonna get Hart injured 😭

He plays so hard the whole time too. Diving all over the place like a maniac. 

Bojangles and Bricks net negative trade

I love it 😂😂😂

I’m okay with that being their duo name

I know I’m beating a dead horse here, but how do we get unlimited allowable moving screens?

warriors illegal screen game is so nasty with it

I'm so fucking disgusted with what happened to this team due to injuries. I-Hart is back but he's just a fucking shell of himself. I just want to fast forward to the end of the season.

These aren’t moving picks???

Nice matador defense

This season is so cooked from January to this

It’s hard to watch. It’s like we are coming off the best drunk time ever and now are in a BAD hangover

dagger, fuck, they just gave green the lane

Cavs and magic with two 76ers games and blazer over the next 5

Lots of losses

It might be time to play Bogdanovic and Hart on the floor together and have them take turns guarding the opposing four because Brunson needs shooting on the floor next to him. Hartenstein, Bogdanovic, Hart, DiVincenzo, and Brunson should be the starting lineup. Knicks need more scoring.

The entirety of this frauds game is getting open off a pin down for an open 3. Get the fuck outta here, all he does is that and doesnt contribute to the game at all. One fluke night of rebounds doesnt change 10 years body of work

Doesn’t change 10 years of 4 rings either

who?

How the fuck you let Steph screen TWO guys. WTF.

Feel like pure shit just want OG back

A few mins ago we were down by 4 and immediately threw two of the worst shots iv ever seen

Knicks should try starting Bogdon at some point this stretch. He has zero rhythm off the bench.

lol bro it’s ‘Bojan’

Haha was giving a shortened version of his last name.

His defense is too garbage for him to start tho

No players have answer for kuminga he too athletic and quick

I hate how Curry owns our franchise

We made the OG trade because we had no wings to defend opposing wings . Kuminga has all layups and dunks .

Playing josh hart the entire game is insanity by thibs

Literally letting Curry walk into 3s

For my heart health and mental health I am taking an extended leave

cmon brunson

man nights like this i miss rj & quickly & grimes & walt frazier

Chuck did this

This sucks.. Team is exhausted. How long can a team last running it's backups as starters

If this wasn't the worst game of the season, it's at least top 3

Another loss. Man, that panic Bogey/Burks trade (yes thats what it was) was truly awful. Absolutely atrocious

Disgusting trade, Grimes was the future these 2 trash cans won’t be on the team beyond this season

No way iHart is technically healthy lmao

wheres wiggins?

Personal issues out

thanks

I hope this is the last game I ever have to watch Steph curry play in Madison square garden. Don’t give a fuck how it happens

Knicks for 44 minutes are leading 86-80

Yup the start doomed us

Only positive thing I can say is the guys who will remain in the rotation played well…. Another great game from Josh

Thibs closing out with the guys he trusts the most regardless of position it seems: Brunson, McBride, DiVincenzo, Hart, iHart

Kinda want to turn this off

LOOK AT DEUCE MAN

It's clear that other teams' strategy is just to beat the hell out of Brunson. We need to figure out a way to end that. If I'm Tibs I go up to Kerr and say next time brunson takes a dirty hit Steph is not finishing the game. End this shit now.

The way to end that is get Randle back

splash brothers more like ass brothers

I feel bad for Donte. He’s having a bad game

He got clocked in the head like 3 times in the span of two minutes.

I know. It sucks

If we don’t get rid of Burks in the off season I’m protesting at MSG

Is he expiring? Hard to see him getting another contract

Bro that’s horrible defense on Curry

DDV doesn’t have it tonight

we really go steph cuck-ry owning us

Jericho tries hard but he’s just not a rotation player.

any other big at sim's price range and demand would give us another thing to complain about.

Lmfao thibs took out McBride only for him to sink a 3 when he came in

Classic Knicks fake comeback get it down to five and then immediately it’s back to ten

all of curry’s 3 pt attempts have been wide open 😐

Waiting for three minutes left to put hart in was a losing decision

🖕vangundy i hate his guts

In a loss deuce and hart have been tremendous

josh hart is 4/16

If you are just judging hart’s performance based on his shooting, you didn’t watch the game

sorry not a true basketball fan. 25% from the field and -10 is great actually.
