Since you feel this bolded part, why do New Yorkers want Thibs gone for a more offensive minded coach?


Simple, ya want a coach who has somethin up their sleeve to steal a game or 2…

Thibs positive point is playin his best for more minutes which y’all have a problem with…

What other attributes you seein?

Way to avoid the question posted.
They seem to be playing some top tier defense when needed, something that Thibs brings out in them.

Avoid what, the obvious?

Defense wins championships

The Celt are the best 3 pt shooting team

The games they blew 20 pt leads was because they didn’t hit their 3’s ,which affected their D, which allowed the Knicks to come back…

Pretty simple isn’t it, LOGICal, no?

We have told you.

Thibs does that in his own way.

He gets max effort from his players and he is arguably the best defensive coach in the NBA.

You take these things for granted when that was literally all you used to ask for before Thibs was hired.

You hire an offensive minded coach and the defense will regress.

Or, better yet, tell him he needs to hire an offensive coordinator and make that guy an associate head coach. Give them full reigns on the offense.

But the Knicks probably get worse if they do what you want and fire Thibs.

This also didn't cover the comebacks against the Pistons where they locked them down in the 4th quarters.
Thibs defense is BIG part of why they have made it this far in the playoff. And you want that gone.

Let’s be clear

Thibs stresses D , he doesn’t implement any intricate defenses to stop any star players from goin off on his team

Pretty fundamental, play basic D you get more minutes!


It works! And it also works because he has his players buy in to it. Which makes him a good coach.

I disagree. Brunson plays pretty poor D and gets the most minutes. KATs D is not so good either and he gets minutes. He has to implement defensive schemes to hide those guys. And they play good team defense as a whole. It is far more than simply play basic D and get more minutes. You underappreciate what Thibs brings to the team. If you get your wish and he is fired you better hope they bring in another guys that does defense.

Yes it does …

It means you were wrong again

For years You been sayin ‘Knick teams were a challenged roster.

They were when I said it for sure.

And your comment is wrong. The Pacers do not have a former Knick as a starter.

Couple of few months back posted Knicks were the 3rd best team in the NBA

Posted a few injuries to key players of at the time, elite teams, Knicks could slip in

Posted Knicks will be a better team in PS, that they still were gettin to know each others game

Posted Thibs should be canned, still feel he’s not the coach for an offensively skilled team…

3 outta 4 ain’t bad for a clueless moron , ain’t that right, “original artists” better known as “tlance and his nuthuggers”

This was you bragging about your predictions being right just a few days ago.

Got to get my prediction in before tip-off.

Knicks are finally healthy, Knicks have homecourt, and the Knicks have the best player on either team in in Brunson. Still with all that, it's going to go the full seven. And in the end, the Knickerbockers move on to the NBA Finals !

You said all had starters.

Toppin is not a starter


Since ya nit picked me I did some research…

And once again you’re wrong!

Last 2 years Toppin started 32 games for the pacers, and he played and contributed in just about every game, bout 160 of em , in those 2 years…

Wat wat whaaaaaaa
