As of now, I like IQ's energy off the bench and DDV's 3 pt shooting starting at the 2.

Do not **** with something that is really really working well. That’s the golden rule

But in the playoffs? Grimes lack of a handle, aggressiveness will be exploited. If he's still playing this way. Our record is based in no small part to teams missing one or more stars when they played us. And we still had to pull out all the stops to win them. Its a long season, I'd like to see either IQ or DDV be given a shot to start. It would also send a message to Grimes that he didnt inherit the job. He has to put in the work to keep it. I dont see that on the court. I do see two guards behind him who are. There is more than a good chance that Grimes might not get his starting job back if he's benched. Thibs might also be giving Grimes every opportunity to remain a starter. Teammates are starting to look for Mitch, but its still three on five on offense, for the most part. Again, that will be exploited in the playoffs, if its still the case. The next stretch will be a good test of how good we are. Hopefully Grimes will step up. If he hasnt by the all star break, then its on Thibs if our record suffers against better, tougher opponents. From the Post.. Yes, the Knicks have already played an inordinate amount of back-to-backs (five sets), prompting coach Tom Thibodeau on Friday to crown his team “the king of the back-to-backs.” But they’ve also benefited from head-to-heads against terrible teams (Wizards, Hornets thrice, Spurs, Pistons) and long stretches at home. |

Thibs focusing on what Grimes does right on defense while fans focused on what Grimes does wrong on offense.
