looking forward to seeing the New Knick and some added energy for the other Knicks, e.g., IQ Obi, who were rumored targets but now staying with a squad having good chemistry

i'd like to think it helps confidence to know other teams truly want you, but your team wanted you even more

Man the board’s been jumping the last couple of days! Time to get back to normal and go apes#!t when Randle has a turnover in the 4th quarter. Or 1st.

Well, we can't trade him right now so we might as well cheer for him! Go Randle!

Thibs has got to let them play!!!!!!

Philadelphia = 34-19 (20-8 @ home).
Vs.
NY Knicks = 30-26 (16-11 on the road).

It's not going to be easy but a Knicks win @ Philly tonight and we'll end the Season-Series @ 3-1 against these guys (.750%) along with me 3-0 previous 3 games in comparison to Philly being 0-3 previous 3 games.

Heading into tonight's game we've got the 10th best NBA record (which makes me feel we're able to compete against, anyone).

We need R.J. Barrett to get out of his shooting funk and drop 30+ tonight.

Seriously though… they have KD in front of him! That can’t be right.

You just know Thibs had practice at 8am, film session at 10am and second practice set for 2pm so Josh can get up to speed
NYKMentality @ 2/10/2023 12:18 PM
Key to tonight's game:

Don't fall down again by -21 Points to Philadelphia.

Better yet.

How about actually heading into the 2nd Quarter up by 10+ points (and go from there).

Make it difficult on the 76ers (for a change) and from start to finish too.

Julius always finding a way to one-up Sabonis. Domantas got to have little brother syndrome by now.

100% and really if anything Josh Hart is a signal of confidence from the FO in this squad. He's a legit reinforcement. He will really help us and give Thibs options. He doesnt feel like a real move the needle player but the more I think about it the more I only see him helping.

The ID of the team is beat you on the boards, beat you on D, take it to the hole, shoot 3s, let Brunson take every shot <2 minutes that he possible can. Put backs from Randle or centers are acceptable, as are open kickout 3s to shooters.

Hart is gonna help

where's Donovan? patting my own back (sort of), i said pre-season that Julius returning to AS all-NBA form would have a bigger impact on team than donovan (who has never made all NBA)

Cavs are better than last year but not vastly so (and meantime Colin Sexton is not doing much coming off bench -- another Cav guys here were crushing on)

bold has to stop though. we need at least two reliable options including a shooter

"Embiid continues to deal with persistent foot soreness and may sit out on the front half of the 76ers' Friday-Saturday back-to-back against the Knicks and Nets. If Embiid is out, Montrezl Harrell and Paul Reed could see increased roles."

And I hope he misses tonight's game too because A.) We're without our Starting Center (Mitchell Robinson) and B.) Eye for an eye (fair is fair).

Is Hart playing, tonight? I read somewhere he is out tonight, I hope that isn't so.

Feels like a letdown right now but come tomorrow night vs. the Utah Jazz? MSG will be rocking (in excitement) for this dudes New York debut.

Nah... that's for Jalen to find (pass to Sims for the dunk, kick outs for 3s)

If he gets doubled he'll find the open guy
