Let’s see what cam does with minutes now. I know he can get hot because of his 30 plus game b4 he was traded. I see the potential but right now knox has a better 3 pt game. I need to see cam defense and impact on the game outside of shooting 3s.

Cam shooting 36.4% from 3point land this year. Knox, not so much.

This has been a huge problem.

Refuses to clear the bench. Overplays his starters always.

He’s been bad this year. There is no debating it.

I’m talking about in this system or since his Achilles injury. And maybe that’s the issue. Non surgical procedures especially with Achilles takes a very long time to heal.

I just remember knox best attribute was his 3pt game. Cam suppose to be a better 2 way player. I just hope he settles down and plays to his strength vs shooting deep 3s. With RJ down maybe we get to see more from cam.

And regardless of their 3pt numbers……knox was a shooter. Cam looks more like a chucker. A below average shooter who thinks he’s better than he is. That’s been his label in atl and so far that’s what I’m seeing in his limited mins.

Denver put their stars back in a few minutes earlier.
Hindsight pile on.
Losing sucks.


Don't get me started. These same people kill Thibs night after night for subbing RJB out and then kill Thibs for playing RJB too many minutes.

Also, I love how Thibs is a moron "for playing the worst starting defensive backcourt in the NBA" --yeah, because Thibs has buried stud PGs and SGs deep on the bench...

Thibs doesn't frickin have a backcourt. He's got trash to work with. He isn't refusing to play a 28 year old Derek Harper, people. He's choosing between bad and worse.

Go ahead and run Thibs out of town. Randle too. We love to eat our own.

I love Cam’s length and athleticism on defense. If he just played a little smarter he could really disrupt passing lanes


His shooting so far with us hasn’t been good but it’s a really small sample size since Thibs refuses to use him unless half the roster is injured

There's no debate? Ok....so what about Leon Rose and his minions in the front office>? Can we debate this mess he's created here? Which guy has actually proven himself to be capable of leading a team? Thibs or Rose?

Gimme a break. One guy will win 1000 games in the NBA if he hasn't already. The other guy is a ****ing agent. Now we're hoping to dump contracts this guy dished out 5 months ago?

Right, there's no debate. Who's the PG on this team again? Someone remind me? Oh, KEMBA WALKER!!! The guy can't move.

Every other team in the NBA has a good PG except the Knicks. I wonder if that's why this team can't win 2 games in a row.

The FO is always trying to fleece teams that's why their Trade discussion with teams always break down and they walk away with nothing.

I gave them a lot of credit last season because we were winning, But how much of that roster do we owe to Leon (burks and Noel) 2 guys they gave extensions 2 that they are now trying to off load.

Now Thibs is starting to coach like old geezer, so even Leon once prize addition is looking very suspect

On pretty much all accounts, Knox was a ****ty chucker. https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/k/knoxke01.html

Can we agree that we have three starters that all need the ball to be effective?

Kemba on the bench would alleviate some pressure for him and allow him to run the pick and roll. Randle and Fournier are running the pick and roll all the time.

Spacing is a problem and starting IQ helps solve that, he’s a catch and shoot guy. McBridge at least improves the defense, so put one of them in for Kemba.

We know Thibs doesn’t have a point guard, but sticking with that starting lineup is insane.
