With a real and good defensive PG, Fournier wouldn't be so bad as long as he keeps draining 3s and attacking the basket. Kemba deserves NO minutes. Rather see anyone at PG, even RJ. A winnable game tossed away, it is only going to get worse with this west coast trip. Terrible coaching by Thibs.

Team is going to be real tough to beat. Zaire is looking better and better too

Mitch has been playing great

Kemba looks like he’s in pain just walking up and down the court. Trade for Westbrook already

We are ruining Burks with the full time pg role. Agreed.

Randle was lazy on D most of the night, 3pt shots atrocious, and his continued attitude. Looked like he slapped a fan's hand away when he technical out. -9

Obi was not used enough.

Noel a huge waste of 16 minutes ZERO pts -15.

Burks another huge waste of 13 minutes ZERO pts -17.

Walker waste of space for 17 minutes ZERO pts 2 assists.

RJ, Mitch, Evan 67% from 3, Quickley, and Grimes came to play, I guess Randle's losing #s look good on paper.

Outhustled, they had 14 more shots than the Knicks.

Pathetic results this year after getting back to 500. A trade and/or coach firing better happen tomorrow! This is some Joe Judge coaching this year.

Barrett taking it to the hoop stopped. He missed a couple of 3s. That took the air out even though we hit a couple of shots.

I am still scratching my head on this one.

Answer: Thibs

Weird how our starters minus Kemba all played well and the bench did not except for IQ early in the 4th with those two baskets that cut it to 5. No complaints about Randle. He brought it an honest effort. He hustled and played hard and almost finished with a triple double. That is all you can ask for lately. Don't care anymore about his techs or shooting. It is what it is. But honestly hoping it's the last time we see him in a Knicks uni at MSG. It's just time for a divorce. Don't see this getting better.

RJ did a good job on Morant. So did Grimes. Morant missed 12 straight at one point. Fournier shot the ball well. Rob was a monster on both ends and shutdown Morant for the majority of the second half. Should be interesting to see if he's traded the next few days.

I think I've entered that place as a fan where losses are starting to bother me less and less. I've recognized it's a lost season and it's just not a good team. It's silly to get mad at a bad team losing games. I know we were just one game better at this same point last season but with this brutal road trip coming up and what we've seen so far, I think it's about to get really ugly. Personally for my sanity and mental health I'm just gonna try to view the rest of the season as an evaluation of RJ, Grimes, Obi, IQ and hopefully Deuce and Reddish.

In fact I thought a lot of our guys played well

Memphis had a mediocre start to the season and now is playing great. They play hard, fast and confident

As some noted they might be too aggressive but we didn’t exploit that and I think they’re one of those teams you need to decide who you’re going to try and slow down because you won’t stop everyone.

They might be peaking too soon but no one wants to play them
