Just curious, what league plays a 156 game schedule?

Sorry man, I messed that up. Went back and looked. 133 game schedule, don’t know if I included, spring training games, or the year I went to instructional ball...

 

[Pastafazul]

And please enlighten me.

How many current professional basketball players do you know personally?

I have enlightened you enough...

With tonight's win over the Pistons, the Knicks are now over .500 at 18-17...and the #4 seed in the EC.

That said, Leon Rose and Tom Thibodeau deserve some props, and there's still much work & improvements/upgrades that need to be done.

Long way to go yet...but I'm absolutely enjoying this right now.

Keep it going, Bockers.

Yes , the Knicks are a very exciting team, cardiac kids I call em.

can never count them
Out of any game played.

they literally pick up for one another which is great to see. No attitudes from any player.

the only thing that is of concern, playing with a good lead and preserving it. If they ever manage to get that under control. They will do some damage , possible PS play is not out of question. Nice to see games have significant meaning , as they now have the edge on Indiana if they are to meet PS.

thibs , having Randle pretty much on court the entire 4 Q last nite when game was pretty much out of reach for the whole Q ,beginning and ending + 20, is very risky.

but , basketball is back at the Mecca

wait , I just checked again, I played in several leagues. one had 133 game schedule, the other 144.

Going over the Knicks schedule for 2nd half...

knicks be lucky if they win 10 of the remaining 35.

 

[Pastafazul]

If Knicks win this game vs bucks, they go PS

if they lose, beginning of the end!

pretty much will sum up thibs season, good first, bad second .

been fun

 

[Pastafazul]

Thibs!!! That little league shit!

 

[Pastafazul]

Knicks Basketball IQ, Absolutely BRUTAL!

 

[tabascojet]

First five game win streak since 2014.....engrave the trophy!!

 

[Pastafazul]

The brain farts committed by this team, especially Randle , will not jive come playoffs ... that’s all I’m sayin

Thibs made difference, got his men to buy in playing solid D , and to pick up for one another when down. No egos on this team!

thibs , enforced the fundamentals, which in turn wins a few extra games.

Man, it’s all about confidence. You already proved the skill cause you got there based on skill and consistency. Now, maturation takes over, and with that the confidence is the only way your skill gets fully developed.

we’re on same page, but cmon man you are over thinking this.

At the highest level, it could only be confidence that keeps you there, transitions you to maybe another position, confidence is everything !

This is in the line of posts where you were talking about how players didn’t improve their skill only their confidence.

It was confidence, setting, that all played the part in Randles success as a 3 pt shooter this year...

Sure. A small role.

More importantly, he worked very hard and got better.

I don’t think there’s a player in the NBA this season that has been a bigger difference in the W/L column than Julius Randle

Thibs is just incredible but without Randle, I think you can chop half of their 35 wins into losses
