Knicks · 2025 Knicks comparison with the 2016 World Champion Warriors (page 1)

I thought these teams felt a little similar in their construction. Was comparing lineups without getting too deep into it. I didn't watch a ton of Warriors basketball in 2016. So, can't really give insightful commentary. These teams feel similar to me. Maybe I am hoping some of our guys take off a bit to be where those Warriors were playing. Nothing finished yet, but damn if this team doesn't feel more right than wrong.

Starting Lineup

Curry vs Brunson
Thompson vs Bridges
Barnes vs Anunoby
Green vs Randle
Bogut vs Hartenstein

Bench
Deuce, DDV, Hart, Achiuwa, Robinson
Livingston, Barbosa, Rush, Iguodala, Ezeli

I mean, this team gives up a little in offensive firepower to that team. Mostly Curry's unlimited range. But otherwise, the defense should favor this Knicks team pretty heavily.

Yessir! That’s the 67 win team?

after watching OG defend Embiid and Turner in crunch time I LOVE line ups with him as our small ball center to finish games.

Its our version of the death line up!

Brunson
Bridges
Josh
Jules
OG

those are your 5...

OG gives you some rim protection and can defend bigs high and low. Jules/Josh are wrecking balls with a handle and Brunson/Bridges spreading the floor. Oh boy.

I also love the depth. If we lose a guy we have such quality to bring in

they were all about the offense, we're all about the defense

both teams great chemistry and all about winning
