Tom Thibodeau after loss to Lakers: “We’ve got to shore up our defense”

He only thinks defense. The Knicks have the worst OT record in the NBA and most games are nailbiters even if they do win in the 4th. The problem is a lack of consistent scoring to hold or extend leads, not defense in those close wins and tough losses. Why can't this coach learn?

This has been a wild season across the NBA, tons of second tier teams with records that hover around .500.

Knicks are top 10 in Offensive Efficiency. Top 10 in Net Rating. Shockingly, they have dropped their defensively rating to only a middle of the pack team (could be a Mitch missing thing).

Tied for top 10 in record across the league, in a tight race after the top teams.

What is your expectations for the team? Like you are satisfied only with like a top 3 team in the East?

Seems top 4 is the benchmark achieved two years ago.

Didn't they just beat the Celtics and Cavs last week?

I was listening to Brandon Tierney melt like a snowflake today about the Knicks because someone had the audacity to call in and talk Basketball. If you listened to NY sports radio you would think we were 0-52

If you were at at comedy club and after 10 attempts to work in a “Zach Wilson” bit to crickets, perhaps you’d get that needed feedback.

Where’s Elf is the new Where’s Waldo but more difficult. You can actually find Waldo.

Hachimura looks good next to two HOF players.
SO would Obi.

So would Marv

Their 3pt shooting and spacing is worse than ours. It’s not like we double team anybody. So how exactly is your theory making Hachimura better just by breathing the same air as 2 HOF’ers

Lets' count the ways.........
Wait, Westbrook is the third HOFer!!!!
Hachimora looked good next to 3 HOfers!
Marv would look even better!

Their record says otherwise

He been there for two games.
Question “How come we can’t have a Hachimura”. Based on his play vs. knicks I presume. Not “Hows lakers been all season”.
If you put obi out there with a healthy Laker lineup he will look good. He is our “Hachimura”. Maybe its Reddish?
