Stinks not having Jalen Brunson.

But I have a weird feeling R.J. Barrett will attack and drop 40+ Points tonight.

Because he dropped 46 on them last year?
Part of them on Jimmy too!

I hope your right.

You have a memory of an 🐘 because I completely forgot about him going off for 40+ against Miami last year.

I just love the kids MENTALITY and feel he's going to play pissed off after being benched 4th Q against Lakers last game.

I've been wrong before and I'll be wrong again but I just have a feeling without Brunson, R.J. Barrett will become forced to take over.

It's time for the Julius Randle critics to not only give it a rest, but also pick on someone else.

Because Julius Randle is not only having himself a career year but he just got selected and became a 2x Eastern Conference ALL-STAR as a Knickerbocker.

From....

To...

I’m surprised to see covid even mentioned. I get the feeling most people don’t really think about covid much any more.

As for me, I’m seeing cases at work, in my family, and a couple on my block recently. Not big numbers, but still.

I don't know how this game will turn out, but it feels like the type of game in the right part of the season that will set a trajectory for both teams the rest of the way.
Historically, we lose this game 10/10 times.

If we win, it means a lot.
If we lose, we should stop fooling ourselves and become sellers at the deadline.

Just a wild lineup of Knicks draft picks and newly minted 2-time all star

NYKMentality @ 2/2/2023 7:51 PM
What an awesome fast start for the Knicks!

Yoooo.

Immanuel Quickley needs to become a full time starter while Grimes takes over spark off the bench 6th man etc.

Because IQ is too elite, not to START + FINISH!

Rookie @ 2/2/2023 7:59 PM
IQ doing a great job running the show

I get it but Svi’s shot looks pure. How bad can he be?

He must be awful! I’d rather see Thibs lace ‘em up than EF!

JK. EF seems like a good dude. And he’s obviously skilled. He just doesn’t seem to fit here, and his defense is the opposite of what I appreciate in a player.

Why is Evan Fournier getting playing time over Deuce McBride?

Fk sending Evan Fournier back to the bench; he needs to be sent back to FRANCE.

He's (by far) my least favorite Knick of All-Time and that's because his Defense is the most atrocious I've ever watched.

More like over Cam - McBride is out there as well.

HofstraBBall @ 2/2/2023 8:19 PM
Leave the "guys not getting enough minutes" out there. Maybe they will actually score a basket.
franco12 @ 2/2/2023 8:19 PM
This second unit should do better. EF has skills. McBride is a tremendous defensive talent. IHart. Obi is skilled. I

I wonder if this is like a hockey chemistry line up thing- where the sum is less than the whole.

I honestly think Thibs needs to look at the starting line up and moving RJ to the bench.

franco12 @ 2/2/2023 8:20 PM
Obi afraid to shoot
ToddTT @ 2/2/2023 8:21 PM
Is it legal to play just 4 players?

Or maybe it's just that they are not as good as a couple of good games. Or fan hopes.

Every single Knicks starter is in the +.

But Evan Fournier?

+/- of freaking -15!

He single handedly ruined our Season last year and he's single handedly ruined our 10+ lead here tonight.

He's ATROCIOUS on both offense and ESPECIALLY Defense.

Fk him for real.

Ditto, just more of the same movie. Unreal.
