KAT single-handedly losing this game. NON-FACTOR.
Sit Jalen. Hell, take out all the starters. Except Towns, these last 2 minutes are his penance.
Completely dominated in the 2nd half for the seconds straight game.
KAT not right. OG unfortunately manhandled by Giannis.
If you cannot shoot you won’t win
The last three minutes have been an absolute embarrassment. We’re done.

Does he have more fouls than points?

One of his worst games as a Knick.

"NON-factor" is too generous. He's actually a liability that is gifting MIL the game. I hope to God we can trade this fool.
No but TOs & Fouls 8, pts 8.

GAME OVER. Thanks KAT. Please trade KAT for Giannis. All our picks and any young guys.
Final score isn't going to matter --- this has been a shit show performance from opening tap.
- no defensive intensity - NONE, nada, zip, zilch
- sluggish, sloppy ball handling, passing
- dumb decisions galore all over the floor
- what is Hart doing in these games?
- Kat auditioning for ticket out of NY
- OG continues to fall over the place
- Jalen getting his and guarding nobody -- Kat not getting his and guarding nobody
Love when we swing the ball around to a Hart 3-pointer - Jesus Christ
Rollins, Green, Trent schooling our stars left and right and Giannis caps it off with throw down thru 5 of our guys.
I watched this whole turd of a game but truly lost interest when I saw our style of play early - going thru motions.
I said after last game something is off in locker room - it's got to be with Kat but it's not clear what it is other than him thinking they tried to move him for the Greek.
71 first half, 40 2nd half. GROSS.

I'd take iHart and DVV for him at this point. Truth be told, I'm not sure why we didn't route KAT to OKC, to undercut their ability to pay iHart.
This group always had Thibs to take the flack for any shit performance - will be interesting to see how they respond with pressure now on them.
It's really a matter of playing harder and I really don't like Jalen/Kat defensively (it's the same look as past few years - they don't guard).
If you look at Cavs game - we guarded hard that game -- last 2 on road from start to finish we went thru the motions --- collectively.
I feel they should have been practicing offensive plays before the last few pre-season games. Like before the pre-season. Looks like a YMCA pick-up offense.
I know nobody cares since he is on the floor, but Kat is not 100...looks like he's laboring running ul and down the court...

We rarely win these type of games because in getting that 71 we really didn't play any D and Bucks were only down 9.
We guarded nobody.
KAT has to win these 2nd unit matchups. It's hard to be losing these games where Brunson is filling it up

The offense is brutal but this collectively is a team that has stood around playing off Jalen past few years.
The notion of Mikal, OG, Kat putting ball on floor and making good decisions is dangerous at best - throw in guys like Hart and that's a lot of mistakes.
Watching Jalen cross just over 1/2 court against pressure, struggle to hand off ball to Mikal almost on the 1/2 court line and then they turn around and Mikal hands it back to Jalen and still 35 feet out and nothing has happened - CRAZY.
