Few teams are in that tier and we aren't one of them. But this is the first year of this super starter team, they need to fix this bench issue if they can for next year. Also, JB is a killer but not that attacker scorer. When KAT doesn't dominate, we have no one who takes it hard to the rim and scores. Few teams do. I'm close to done with this game.

Two (so far) against Boston and one against OKC were simply non-competitive, sickening performances.

I agree but I'm a bit of a masochist so I'll probably watch the entire, painful 48 minutes.

When Doris is complimenting the Knicks she’s less annoying.

Just kidding it makes no difference.

OG is out, we’re close to .500 without him. Mitch isn’t back yet. I wouldn’t call this a real test of our playoff aspirations.

I look at some of Deuce’s box scores from the last few weeks, and he’s played some good games. For some reason he doesn’t seem as impactful as he did last season. Seemed more clutch.

If we could trade KAT and Mitch for iHart I wouldn’t lose any sleep.

Because it is less than 15-20+ behind, I'll check out the beginning of the 3rd, but if they both start like they did the 1st, I'm done.

You can say that, but they are without KP & Jrue, we are without OG & Mitch. I don't think we have the edge on those two nor the guys on the floor, so it seems to only get worse IMO.

We were tougher and smarter with iHart. The CBA and OKC ****ed us big time.

Boston has a deep bench, we don’t.

Anthony Mackie is a discount super hero.

iHart was a glue guy, Towns has been playing like a superstar this season. I’m more concerned with our bench delivering. iHart has availability issues as well.

I feel like Precious is just a little confidence shy of upping his game.

I hope so, he’s easy to root for.

I’m a fan, but the movie he did about being an android really sucked. Looking forward to seeing Captain America, and the Red Hulk. Hopefully the writing will be good.

It is funny, how teams abused the system when they already had loaded teams, now the Knicks have a loaded starting lineup and the rules change, figures. Sucks we can't sign anyone cut/waived over $12.8 million salary. So many champs have abused this for years.

I think he’s the perfect sub for OG, and to fill in occasionally. Just not full time.

You mean Captain woke? lol He is another guy who is entitled and believes he deserved the mantle of new Captain America, but truly doesn't appreciate the honor to have been selected, nor the country that allows him to behave that way. Just act. Truly sad. Avengers unite, no thanks.

There should be a padded wall beyond the basket.

Not people sitting on the floor with cameras and drinks.

I hope I don't jinx anything but we may be chipping away at the lead.
