Brunson is allowing 68% as the primary defender in this series and nobody is talking about it....

Now, if it were Luka? LOL.
That’s why he was drafted where he was drafted. He never had any shot of being a two way player. Credit to Brunson for taking his offense to the level he has but he was always going to be a terrible defender.

To say nobody talking about it is just a lie though. If you turn on the tv during/after Knicks games or the next morning all people are talking about is the Knicks defense and primarily his lack of defense. Perk just called him mini Luka 2 days ago

Or can just go on Twitter after the games and see people ripping Brunson and other Knicks for lack of defense

I predict the Knicks manage to win Game 5 just to prolong the inevitable but the Pacers put them out of their misery in Game 6.

Or you can ask @Pastafazul and he'll let you know that it is because Thibs is an awful coach. #FireThibs!

They've been a better road team in the Playoffs. They are 2-5 at home.
I think Indiana finishes them tonight.

That's what I'm thinking, but these playoffs have been wild, lots of huge comebacks and surprises. Just hope it's not a blowout. I voted for Pacers in 6 because I thought for sure the Knicks would at least split the first two in NY.

Another fool who got nothin but old stinkin bait that falls off the hook

I never posted thibs was an awful coach mr shitt sterrer

I said he was not a strategist

And he ain’t

And im amongst many here who know he’s goin, just look at ESPN’s headlines

‘ has Thibs coached himself out of his job

Dude, you and a few others on here need to get a life , but start with a clue first

The pacers are the better everything team

The refs suck for both but have hurt the Knicks more with the early foul calls on KAT

It’s the pacers year, look forward to the next series.

Pacers magic vs OKC home court cookin

Hope it’s a great one

You say he's not a strategist. You also say that he doesn't prepare them in practice. There isn't that much else there left to coaching. You don't do those things then you are an awful coach. You have said it without coming out and saying it.

Just because he gets fired doesn't mean he was bad and that you were right. Let's see the Knicks find a better coach. The pool of those is not very large.

If the Knicks can win tonight I still give them a chance in this series. Here’s to 7 games!

Always with the ulterior motives lol. Wear out the potential opponents while the Thunder relax.

Pacers need to end the series tonight so that we can focus on two young teams establishing themselves. The NY media hype ending quiets the noise.
