Do we even keep this loss within single digits?

These recent loses especially against Brooklyn, Lakers and Clippers have all been heartbreaking; could easily be 31-23 but instead we're only 28-26 because of these 3 heartbreaking loses.

This team is hot and cold, hot and cold.
We lose against bad teams, destroy good teams, then see-saw between wins and losses that are expected to go the opposite way.

Given how unpredictable the Knicks have been, watch then blow out the 76ers tonight and leave everyone speechless.
Then on Tuesday they get blown out by the Magic, confusing fans and analysts even more...

Very tough to gauge this team in such an evenly matched league where a spark from 1 player means any team can beat any other team.
It is a really strange season...

Commented on another thread. It's not just "Ball Movement". Specifically, it's drive and kick outs. Moving the ball from side to side does not do much for an offense.
Attacking in order to make the defense react then kicking out to open players so that they can take advantage of recovering defenders/rotations or rotate the ball to the weak side is what is needed.

Buy yea, get your point and agree.

I just hope Joel Embiid doesn't play. He's listed as questionable (game time decision).

And that's because already without our Starting Center in Mitchell Robinson and I don't really like the thought of Joel Embiid going up against the likes of Isaiah Hartenstein and/or Jericho Sims.

They have *four* players averaging 1 or more steals. Knicks have Zero.
Their PG averages 11 assists per game, ours averages 6.
Their starting 5 averages 10 pts per game more than ours, and aside from IQ our bench can't score.

He should not be allowed to shoot any shot past 16 ft. He is a terrible shooter and his best attributes are going to the rim. BTW, his defense is bad also. Should have never gave him the extension. Why isn't the FO ever held accountable for drafting and signing players that can't shoot the ball. X's and O's along with good defense don't do you any good if you don't have shooters.
