Knicks · GT: 7:00 PM / 10-22-2021 (FRIDAY) New York Knicks @ Orlando Magic GAME THREAD!!! (GAME #2) (page 1)

New York Knicks (1-0).
@
Orlando Magic (0-1).

That double OT win was awesome starting off our season with a W vs. a divisional Celtics team etc but now it's on to ORLANDO.

Orlando got destroyed by San Antonio tonight 123-97 and lost by 26 points and I'm expecting a 2-0 start.

GO NY GO NY GO!

We got back to backs with Orlando so you should be expecting 3-0!
KnickDanger @ 10/21/2021 5:01 PM
Time was you would expect a let down against a lesser opponent after a big win. But not what we’ve seen under Thibs.

FYI… today I tried “Alexa, remind me when the Knicks play”. She replied that they are playing the Magic, and that she’ll remind me 10 minutes before the game.

Pretty handy! If anybody figures out how to get reminders for all games, do tell.

Orlando is terrible and if these arent two wins Thibs will lose his mind. I expect b2b wins by 10+

Maybe we place shitty enough for Orlando to hang but we should be able to snuff them out in crunch time

Iggy Bratz in orlando??

When's the last time we started off a season @ 3-0?

Because I'm fully expecting an away/home sweep of Orlando.

Orlando has some interesting size with Carter and Bamba. Totally different makeup vs the Celtics should make it interesting. (Why didn’t Kanter play while Mitch was abusing them with 17 boards?)

But yep, the Magic roster is a mess right now.

NYKM 1 win out of one post. Nice job , some might call it a small sample size to make conclusions, bit I say let's get a streak! Keep them game threads coming !!!

Because they probably didn't want Randle to score 100.

One day at a time! Knicks made a lot of defensive mistakes vs the Celtics and need to lock in. I don't think you can overlook anyone. Hopefully the team has the right focus. They have had to come from behind their last two outings. Hopefully they can play better defense and have more balance on offense.

Gotta take care of business and beat these guys the next two games. Can't lose to a team like the Magic! They are in tank mode with that young roster!

Ummm, weren't we up by 11 late in the 4th quarter?
I'm pretty sure the one thing we don't have to worry about with a Thibs team is focus. Burn out, maybe. But not focus.

Speaking of focus, if this turns into a blow out for us, does Knox get any burn?

Normally I would say this is a trap game but it’s so early in the season I think it he Knicks come ready to win

interesting but not very good. Bomba is a great propect imo still, but also very raw and has missed a lot of time. Carter is a role player and always banged up it seems.

We are just so much deeper than these guys I really dont expect a let down. Burks, IQ and Taj will all be fresh. Obi is ALWAYS fresh and I bet RJ comes out banging early

I'm sensing martin has lost that loving feeling...
