We're down by 16 and Fish inserts Rolo into the game with 5 minutes to go for offense? What an idiot!

And btw, jose makes a couple shots, and he plays the entire 2nd half at age 34. Fish is such a simpleton.

Poor execution and Fish kinda messed up trying to fit Seraphin into the mix.

Didn't he learn from the 1st quarter......?

Because they're a much better team is the easy answer.

Bulls are 18-12, soon to be 19-12, tied for 2nd in the Eastern conference. Jimmy Butler is one of the best SG in the NBA. Pau Gasol is having another all-star season. Their lineup is full of players better than our players. Sorry you can't see this.

Chicago also has one of the best defenses in the entire league. They lead the league in opponents field goal percentage.

Again, why do you think the Knicks are better than the Bulls on their home court?

Seriously, I'm dying to hear the explanation for this?

Bulls have been better without Rose all season.

Please explain. Please.

We are not playing good tonight .. It just burns when you get beat by less talent

Won't be long now before we see some roster changes. This just isn't a good enough mix right now.

I think we lose either way....but it seems like every game we have to overcome so much just to win. From the coach to the starters and back to the bench. And just like the other games, the ball is in Phils hands to solve these issues. Good luck!

They're a better team.

But we're very inconsistent with how we execute the offense.
The best sets are when we fill the Triangle spots and just use a S/R game with Calderon or someone else as a ballhandler.
Everything else has been really inconsistent most of the season.

If Charlie Rosen is right, Phil isn't happy with Fisher's job or commitment to the Triangle. It clearly shows this team still hasn't been able to grasp the Triangle very well at all.

At the end of the day, some are going to forget what truly lost us the game. We once again had an atrocious start in the first half and second half. We had the wrong players on the floor on Many occasions; etc
Thank God Fisher is no longer our coach, now let's get Calderon out of here:)

O'Quinn hurt us to and it's usually easier o win when you acually make your shots but i'm sure certain people will say it's Fishers fault. Hahaha

We lost this game when we missed "bunnies" on three straight possessions about five minutes ago.

Yeah, because then the Bulls would only be up by 17.

What the heck are you talking about?? No talent on the Bulls?? They have twice as much talent then we have.

Coaching is a problem in terms of lineups.
The talent is there for this team to be .500 or so
They are slightly underachieving on offense. They're about where they can be on D, but on offense this team has really underachieved. I don't know if it's that the players don't get the Triangle, or Fisher's not very good at coaching it, but whatever it is, the Knicks need to change their schemes on O. They rarely get anything going on a consistent basis on that end.

Also tonight, my man Porzingis (like most road games) missed too many easy shots. I know he's a rookie, but he's taking a lot of shots and being aggressive (which I like). However he has to make more. I don't know if it's just timing or what, he's missing way too many easy shots the last few weeks.

It's been a fierce combo of both. No way the Bulls should have this many points even with our misses.
