I withdraw my question.

Why?

They seem to play well against good teams

Not sure if anyone is picking up on this, but when Quickley is i. the game, the playback shrinks to 1 or 2 plays. Thibs seems to have IQ running exclusive pnr where he is either going to shoot or make a play. I feel like he's limiting what Quick do in terms of running off flare screens for 3s or just spreading the floor for his teammates...

Could be. Or could be that IQs playbook is set up for him to develop step by step

perhaps....but the other night when Quick got a chance to play extended minutes with Randle and RJ in the 4th quarter, Quick didnt run as many PNRs and all of a sudden we were back to playing the way we normally do. Clearly, Quick is being asked to play a certain role with the 2nd unit....just an observation

Same is hurt and they're at the tail end of a six game road trip. The Knicks made dumb mistakes that most teams would've capitalized off of. But a win is a win. I'll take it.

Did someone tell RJ to stop taking bad shots? The last 10 or so games the guy has been efficent as hell 50% from the floor 40% from 3, almost 80% FT. He may never be a 25ppg scorer but a controlled 20 wthh 7 boards and 4 assists and above average defense is close to a max player

Good win , Thibs has these boys playing hard every game even in their loses.6th in the East , and Mavs on a down spiral. TBH I was not for hiring Thibs not because he cannot coach but just felt he was on Old head , I was wrong he was a phenomenal hire.

Good win, Blazers weren’t clutch and they helped in the end but I’m loving my team right now.
