T lance, how’s that crow tasting?

thibs has his no talent roster at .500

beating the celts, cavs, pacers, warriors, jazz, etc....

how could it ever be possible that a coach can take a no talent roster, and beat the elite , on road no less.

who woulda thunk it?

You never cease to amaze me.

Get back to me in April and let’s see where they are.

In the meantime, how about going easy on Thibs? He is doing an outstanding job. And even when they end up well below .500 that will still be true.

The Knicks box score last night was a beautiful thing. Balanced scoring. Robinson double digits, now relax to t lance , I ain’t looking for this team to go deep rounds with anyone.
Until they beat the hornets wizards magic on a consistent basis , I’m just looking for competitive ball.

Looking at the roster there just seems like so many fit issues but whatever they are doing is working right now. Solid rebounding team, very good defensive team (actually the best opponent PPG right now which is crazy) and they take care of the ball.

All that thibs is doing is holding his players accountable. They are doing the little things that the arrogance of the league refuses to do. FUNDAMENTALS! Box out. Play hard at both ends. It’s pretty simple, some posters on here just don’t get!

you make up for what you don’t have by doing it thibs way! The team has bought in.

Now, let’s be real . All teams are still feeling themselves out. Getting in game shape . That will catch up to thibs way. I can only hope they win enough to get to PS, that would be an incredible achievement.

You are so full of shit. You should be embarrassed.

last night’s performance by the Knicks , disgraceful. Every team now is zoning up on the Knicks , and thibs has no answer . They dont even try to get ball to Robinson, who is completely lost, running round like a fart in a windstorm. Ball handlers , dribbling from one side to the other, clueless on what to do. It’s embarrassing.

Lol, my bad!!!!

i had no idea Thibs had no real game plan.

I knew he was tough on his guys, but I had no idea no real strategy.

we do have some key injuries, but not enough to look as bad as we have the last 3 games . I know we are still learning as they say... but, it’s been ugly!

damnmmmm!!!!

Not even going to call for thibs firing!

why bother...

I don’t know what you are trying to prove here, lol. What am I contradicting about anything I have said. What??????

you guys try way too hard to invalidate my calls, which for the most part have been spot on.

Accurately calling the day fizzdale was fired when everyone of you said he wouldn’t be fired . Lol. Keep trying!

Last night's win here in SF against the Dubs was a nice surprise.
They were gonna win regardless if Draymond got tossed or not.

That said:
Knicks are 3.5 - 4.0 dogs tonight in Sacto.
But I do believe they'll TCOB and win this one too.

Not sure if Sunday's game in Portland will be cancelled though.

Also....I hope Melo at some point gets to end his career as a Knickerbocker back at MSG in the blue and orange.

Peace. out.

I have changed nothing of what I feel about thibs or the players.

thibs gets his players to play hard and earn their time on the court by what they do in practice and in game.

thibs, clearly not an architect in any way!

y’all are just throwing curve balls at me all the time and I’m taking you deep every time. Bring it onnnnnnn

Did I say they play no zone?

No I didn’t.

But when 2 good teams play each other, it is usually man for the vast majority, if not the entire game.

That is not at all what I said.

I said it is used as a rhythm breaker and that good teams use man as their base.

Last year there were a little over 5,000 possessions of zone defense across the NBA all season long.

Since teams average over 100 possessions a game, that isn’t very many.

And if you are seeing more zone in Knicks games, the reason is that opposing teams don’t think the Knicks can shoot.

Oh stop with the bull shite, back to back games they ran out of gas ..,

I would have bet the farm the Knicks we’re losing that game...

knick org tradition to lose vs teams like the kings ...

always making excuses for these cry babies because of your blind love for this game!

pick up games !!!! we play at all ages, you win you stay on court. Each game you win you play a little harder to keep the court! You know every opponent wants to take you down just a little bit more!

They aren’t talented enough to sustain long winning streaks or 8-2 runs

heading in the right direction and anything close to a .500 record at the end of this season would be a huge step
At some point they need to hit on a lottery pick or bring in some elite talent
