Turnovers on every offensive possession down the stretch. Plenty of opportunity to win this game

So many things we should have done differently, any one of them resulting in a W. This one is going to sting, but make for a great video session for the coaching staff.

Refs weren't good. They gave us no favors. 30 fouls against NY vs 25 fouls against Minny.

It was our 9 FT misses that lost us this game.

Again I so sick of the disadvantage less then zero home court advantage

And the corporate media still wants to pretend gambling isn’t affecting outcomes of games

First of all, there’s the team that showed up for yesterdays game and the first half of this game. Then you have the team that showed up for the second half of this game. WTF how the effort level is total BS. Fuck this team

It’s not just foul disparity. The last out of bounds on RJ was actually off Deangelo Russell. Helen Keller could have seen that

Julius Randle with damn near a triple double 21 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists with 4 blocks and 2 steals but unfortunately his missed clutch FT ruined it all and makes his performance all for not.

R.J. Barrett 7 turnovers + 3/6 3 missed FTs is the reason why he was the only Knicks starter in the - and the real reason why we lost.

Burks 0-3 didn't help either and I love coach Thibs but to send in BURKS after Taj/Mitch fouled out and not Obi Toppin (as MSG was chanting Obi) was another reason why we lost. And Burks missed a wide open 3 to win the game with a buzzer beater.

Horrible loss.

Horrible loss.

Knicks needed 2 to tie. I thought Burks not taking an easier midrange or even closer shot at rim shot was a mistake

Kemba played well, but the next back to back is Sunday-Monday.

I wonder what the plan is.

The problem with this game is we got an aggressive and engaged Randle, a fresh Kemba, a hot Fournier, no one from the twolves killed us, and it still wasn’t good enough.

It's hard to overcome this type of stuff

Gut wrenching loss. .

Loved the effort and fight but too many turnovers and missed FTs. Very disappointed in Randle missing that last one. Hate to admit it but I saw it coming. Randle just has that reputation of not being clutch. He had a great game (21,9,9) but he's gotta hit those clutch FTs. He's missed too many of those. And can he quit bitching to the refs? It's not like they listen and start giving him calls! It's such a waste of time and energy and I actually think it makes it worse.

RJ almost made me throw the remote against the wall multiple times with the turnovers (7, 6 last night). Most of them were so careless too. I admire him being aggressive and trying to make plays but bruh, you are not Grant Hill in his prime! Keep it simple! He's been too erratic the last two games.

Loved how Fournier played. If he hustled and played D like this, he'd be a fan fav. Good to see Kemba back. Dumb game by Mitch. Thibs should make him run laps for that foul from 28 feet!

How the heck are the Wolves only .500? They are loaded!

Gotta get the next two at home before that tough road trip.

The Knicks outscoring Minny in the 3rd qtr. 40-25 was mostly done by the lineup of
Grimes Burks Gibson Fournier and Randle (2 starters).
Adding Barrett to the 2nd unit lineup are why the Knicks LOSS!
Playing Barrett the entire 4th quarter are why the Knicks LOSS the game!

The Minny Wolves (Edwards/Bev) Locked Barrett up tonight, plus every player RJ defended scored easy on him from tip-off to the final sec of the game.
I got real upset in the 4th qtr. when Barrett had the chance to throw the ball to a wide-open Fournier on the 3-ball line twice and never did.
Tonight, Barrett was suppose to receive 18 to 22 minute of playing time for the game for a Knicks win.
Barrett had much more than 7 turnovers in the game, they did not add any of Barrett's turnovers in the 2nd qtr. on his stats.
I'm tired of fans saying he's young and will get better ..
Trade the NO-Chemistry RJ Barrett before the Feb deadline !!!
