But the Hornets made 27 of 51 shots (.529) in the final three quarters. Asked about the Knicks’ inability to grab rebounds and keep the Hornets off the offensive boards, Thomas said that the Knicks had done fine defensively.

“If a team gets an offensive rebound, that means you made them miss a shot,” he said. “They only shot 42 percent from the field, and we outscored them by five field goals, so the foul line really hurt us tonight, and our inability to get there.”

Well, if we were like the Knicks in the late 90s, then yes, we played tremendous defense and did crap on the boards, but guess what...

They hit so many 3s it's ridiculous. We've been getting killed from the line.

FT shooting is how you win games bottom line, you need to get there consistantly and hit them consistantly, how many games have we loss because of it. That to me is one of our most glaring weaknesses, especially with y ridiculously pathetic ft shooters like curry and Jeffries.

This has almost got to be the case as to y we are not a least .500 if not slightly better.
