Meh its the NBA , teams make runs when teams w/ 30 point lead let the foot of the gas...........No way we lose this game
We might be better but we are still the Knicks. Don't tempt fate.
Its a new day my boy .............
It's going to take me a long time to trust again. It's been bad for too long.
Guys diving on the floor in a 30 point blowout
Cole Anthony seems to have more hype then game. Guy really did not have a great college season at UNC in part due to injury. He got all upset taken 15th. He had all the privilege the son of an NBA player had, and its not to say he can’t play but has really yet to shine after high school. LIke many, had a rough rook year due to the covid so I’ll give him a pass. But he has to show it at some point.
AB quietly had a great game but he always goes under the radar. Leon Rose made a great decision choosing him over Reggie.
Boring game, but great to get the blowout win! Crazy how many Knick fans were in the building!
Also ridiculous how quickly we've built up the 3point shooting on this team- before the start of last season we looked like we had no 3pt shooting at all. Now it feels like everyone can hit them
On a random note. Thibs is a defensive magician. Last year Obi was better than advertised but still really bad on D. This year the only major complaint I have about his D is he fouls a little too much. Like Mitch he too will get better at that it just might take another year of on court experience since he did not play much as a rookie.
Easy win. That's how you take care of business! Gotta do the same thing tomorrow! Magic might just have the worst roster in the league. It wasn't that long ago we were them. So let's all stop for a minute and reflect and be thankful where we are. I know we're not championship contenders but where we are is a lot more fun and better than where the Magic are and where we were!
Hitting 24 threes is just insane. Remember when some thought Thibs wouldn't be able to adjust to the 'new NBA' and he was stuck in his ways? Thibs is just an amazing coach and I hope he grows old here. Thibs needs to be our Popovich and leave when he wants to.
Randle needs to start getting the same respect the top players in the game get. He's just as dominant and as important to us as some of the other stars are to their teams. And he's doing it in NYC! He's a hardworker, great teammate and there is no drama with him. It's all basketball.
RJ and Obi look way more skillful and better this season. RJs spin move and finishing with his right hand was something he wouldn't dare do last season. And Obi is just too athletic and too fast for most bigs. Once this kid starts hitting that jumper, it's over.
2-0, let's enjoy it! Don't take it for granted!

He has the talent, doesn't he? But I want to use Mitch as our starting center and not go small. (Unless the opponent dictates that.)
Obi can't supplant Fournier the way he is playing. RJ isn't going anywhere.
Obi needs 25-30 minutes a night. That is the compromise. Bring him in for whomever comes out first - Mitch or Randle. Then adjust accordingly. Go small more often.
He just has too much talent not to be getting a fair amount of minutes.
Damn we have a very good team. Stay healthy.
