Kemba is putting on an absolute show!!! But, its difficult to win consistently with this brand of basketball...everything is one on one. No cutting off the ball, no ball movement....

That's up to the coach, right?
But you are right, more ball movement would be nice. Kinda like college basketball. Unfortunately, this is the NBA and iso, PnR, and one on one is the game.

100% on Thibs...Yes, NBA is a heavy pnr, iso league but thats no excuse for us to be bottom 3 in the NBA in assists per game! Wiz have 30 assists we have 16!! Its not just Randle, the whole team has to rely on one on one skills to get theirs. We stand around and take turns going one on one!!!

I love Thibs but he's stubborn to a fault.

14-18 hahah.

Dude, why are you even on a Knicks message board.

Because I'm a true fan that knows this is a lost season.

I know now what you'll know in January, February.

Back in the lotto boys, you're going to love it.

You sound like a true bulls fan or what team do you root for now?

I was a Randle defender but I’m done. His falloff was last year is astounding.
Misses every wide open three, and is lazy on defense. Trade him.
MS @ 12/23/2021 9:56 PM
I was thinking the same thing.
Randle looks fucking high out there. I’m so sick of watching him take the ball up the court sloppily dribbling and giving half ass hand offs. Honestly it’s time to move him. He had Denny and Dinwiddie in the post on consecutive possessions and didn’t score. He’s not making quick decision anymore and the Wizards have nothing in the post. If there is a Simmons package out there for him need to take it. The ball isn’t moving with him out there.

Fournier needs to be right behind him.

Play all the kids and get another low draft pick and reevaluate. We stink and aren’t making the playoffs.

I root for no one but the Knicks.

This is simply one of those years I can't root for them bc I know better days are ahead.

What a shame kemba had a great game … Randle can’t guard anyone or at least didn’t care to

Hard to say it last summer when he was All NBA 2nd team. That’s not easy to do lol.

NYKMentality @ 12/23/2021 10:03 PM
Randle put up 23 points off 10/22 shooting and added 9 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block.

The player who lost this game was Evan Fournier and coach Thibs for barely playing Obi Toppin, not playing Grimes and PLAYING sorry ass Evan Fournier.

Go back to your bulls messageboard or whatever podunk western conference team you started rooting for 5 years ago because of you saw them in the playoffs on ABC one weekend

Too many guys went ice cold from 3. Kemba is not supposed to be carrying our offense

Or playing 43 minutes. I hope Thibs don’t break him

Randle couldn’t hit from 3 tonight. He was effective only driving into the paint


He and Fournier have both become bricklayers from beyond the arc which is killing our spacing. Perry needs to call OKC and see if they will take EF’s contract, we can start RJ at the 3

Problem is there wasn’t another pg on the active roster. Sorry guys, Burks doesn’t count
