Thibs is so easy to predict. He will always have people willing to fight for him no matter how dumb the mistakes he makes. Thats fine, I am no longer arguing with people over things they purposely turn a blind eye to until after he is gone. Happened to Randle and happening with Thibs.

After Brunson Sprain I thought we can stay above water until he gets back. I then remembered Thibs will never play Kolek so my outlook is not as good anymore. If we get a bad Cam game we have no one to take him out for and McBride is not a PG in my eyes.

No young player is perfect and Kolek does need to work on his defense. But one of my biggest frustrations with Thibs is his stubbornness to the point of madness. You have a good distributor in Kolek and the Knicks are having consecutive empty possessions with Cam not helping. TRY PLAYING KOLEK! Nah, rather we keep losing abusing the rest of the players even if they are playing terrible like Josh.

I wanna see my Knicks improve and win big, but I’ve sadly come to the conclusion that it might take a coaching change for them to take the real next step.

KAT really wanted this one and came out aggressive. Sucks the zebras called that 3rd foul early in the 2nd bur credit to the team for keeping it close. Deuce was really good! Loved that block on Curry! Bridges and OG were alright but they didn't step up when we fell into those scoring droughts.

Hart had a bad game and deserved to get yelled at by Thibs. He was too lackadaisical on defense and gave up some corner 3s. Also didn't make a single shot. National TV game on the road, you can't play this poorly. I love Hart and he's allowed to have a bad game and I know he will bounce back. Mitch was also pretty brutal. Looked super slow out there so he still needs to shake off the rust. Bench was awful.

Of course I'm disappointed nobody had KAT's back with Draymond. I know it isn't the 90s anymore but it's kind of disrespectful to laugh it up and hug that idiot after the game after what he said about your teammate and all the bs he was doing in this game. Most disappointed in Bridges. That's strike 2. First was crying to the media about minutes and now this. He's coming across as very Charles Smithish lately. Know where you're playing man and respect your teammates! I'd be really pissed off if I was KAT!

2-3 in this trip which honestly isn't bad without the Cap. Next 5 games are very winnable.

How a real team should act. I can't say I really respect any of these dudes. Green can do all he did to a team member and yall talking to him like he a life long buddy. I am just not feeling this team at all. It is such a shame coming off last season.

This is why we won’t win it all this year. I don’t know what happened, they seemed to have it early in the year, but somewhere along the way it feels like they just lost it. Maybe some of the guys are upset with KAT because of his lack of defense or something. Or maybe they lost their confidence in those Celtics/Cavs losses, or maybe they have soured on Thibs. I don’t know what it is but something is definitely off in that locker room for sure.

A little perturbed by this. If the Knicks bump into the pistons round 1 and get eliminated early Thibs could be on his way out.

I'm not really worried about him and Hart barking at each other, Hart has been playing like trash and wears it on his sleeve, constantly complaining to the refs and I'm sure he's complaining to the coaches in the same manner. His play is under the microscope now and I think he's feeling the heat.

Watching everyone dap up Draymond makes me sick to my stomach though. This team is soft as ****, there is no denying that at all.

Thibs is not cooked. Its not like he has had 2-3 years of a set core roster and failed to advance.
While he has been here a few years and over achieved, this is the fist year he starts the season with three new starters, and because the bench is thin, Josh moves to starting line up.
Thats 4 new starters.
This team needs to gel and get its bench set.
Also as much as I love Josh this years version of maybe peak Grimes is preferred. A big 2 that can shoot. Josh is reverting back with not squaring up on his shot. He is falling back some. Likely its the Knee.
"Minutes"? We been thru this 100x. The bench has not been great. Knicks have actually done well compared to many teams dealing with games lost due to injuries.

I agree it can also take them backwards, we've seen that in PHX, we've seen it in MIL. Lakers before they landed Reddick couldn't find a coach they liked either.
