Both the D and ball movement were light years better when both Randle and RJ were on the bench at the same time

What do you mean? Randle plays great defense. This impressive defense earns him all his high minutes.

Ah, sarcasm

Yep sarcasm, the only reason Grimes are in the starter lineup is because Randle Barrett Brunson are three players that don't defend well on the defensive-end. Which we notice this weekend.

This time last year, D.Rose kept telling our senile coach Thibs to play Deuce McBride.
The experience Deuce McBride would have now about NBA opponents if coach Thibs would've let Deuce backup PG Burks last season.

In the vid .. why are all the Knicks collapsing to the paint area when the Cavs have 10 seconds left on the shot clock leaving no one to protect the perimeter. Plus the only Knick defended the paint against opponents are MitchRob.

Where’s my deuce fans at. You are 1000x correct. We would know more about deuce. Probably would’ve traded for Spida since we would’ve known what we have overall. Been saying we need to play them more so that our summer will be much clearer.

Eitherway deuce is in. The question now is FOR HOW LONG!

Grimes a very smart player. Not very athletic or skilled but high IQ


might be the worst scouting ever... Grimes is a fantastic athlete with an explosive first step. Go read about his combine etc or just watch him hang with the elite athletes of the game. Not very athletic?

Get ‘em fish. Crazy talk. He’s athletic and skilled. 🤣

If Thibs keep going with the trio Deuce Quickley Grimes back court lineup against the Hawks Trae/Murray duo on Wednesday, the Knicks our luck may be the same as the Cavs if we tighten up on the perimeter defense by letting MitchRob defend the paint & glass on defense.

It's a felony crime what coach Thibs did to Deuce McBride & Kemba last year ....
Taking Kemba out of the rotation, and no Deuce.
Hold on, recall last season when Thibs made SG-Burks the Knicks starter PG.
Well, Burks first 3 games as a starter PG turn out to be (our season) a 1-2 record every 3 games (No Playoff season).
And when D.Rose got injured, no Deuce.
Grimes get injured, no Deuce.

Three quarters of Deuce & Grimes & Quickley vs Cavs, Hawks, Celtics, 76ers, Bulls, Pacers, Nets ..
May result in a Knicks win.

Ah..the defensive gurus (Randles most loyal fans) all grouped in one. Cruising the internet for Randle miscues.
For those of you that clearly know defense, what is a PF suppose to do when he see a guard penetrate? Drop to block to stop and East layup? Or get out and cover the SG and leave middle open? Let me guess, no problem with Obi on that play? It's okay that he is guarding a big 28 feet away and not rotating to the easiest three point shot on the court? Or maybe Randle should cover everybody. #Troll clips.

Players, not Randle, take away drive and leave corner wide open.

Another guy, not Randle, losing defenders.

Continue to say that Randle needs no more than 30 a game(loses defensive energy with too many), take less threes, is one of our best rebounders, good physical presence down low. And yes, keep energy level up in everybolay. But you guys keep posting the Randle bashing micro clips. I am sure they make your days.

Fyi, we won the game! Randle kept their opposing PFs to 8 pts. But you guys are probably pissed he did not stop all of DMs shots.

Very well presented. But you can't expect logic or rationale to sway the mob. Only emotion.
