Re: Quentin Grimes appreciation thread

I read that Bojan has a lingering wrist issue which may require off-season surgery. This could explain part of the inconsistency. Lingering injury seemed to impact Grimes this season too. Not impressed by either player this season. Hopefully Bojan can be a positive contributor this post-season and a...

Re: Did Thibs screw the Knicks going for the 2 seed?

Thibs will get an extension whether we lose in the first-round or not. Sixers with Embiid vs. us without Randle assures that. Sixers are favored to win this series. I think we will win though - if we can get DiVo to score efficient 20+ points per game. That will be the biggest question mark, whethe...

Alex Caruso would be a good trade target.

Re: [Game Thread] Bulls vs. Knicks, Sunday, 14 April, 1:00 PM, ESPN

Next season's team will be different for sure - though I think they will run it back with the Brunson/OG/Randle core unless Giannis or Booker are available. Then you have to think about moving Randle and/or Mitch, plus the picks. We have 3 picks, two mid/late 20s and one in the 30s I think. Don't se...

Re: (Our) playoff race 2023-24

Excited for the first round series, regardless of who it is. Indiana can beat Milwaukee as well. All pressure is on Boston to make it to the finals.

Re: What's up with Grimes?

Slow start, but IQ is in the perfect role off the bench igniting the second unit. Grimes could be experiencing growing pains and it is probably worth being patient with him. RJ took a while to make the leap we are seeing now.

In contrast, the Spurs gave up 86 in the first half last game to Indiana and lost by 41. Popovich should have them motivated.

Looking forward to the Mitch vs. wet bananas match-up.

Re: Wembanyama

The game will only benefit since he is now part of a world class organization. From the Knicks point of view, at least he is in the other conference.

Does anyone watch soccer?

The tl;dr is the below serves as my observations as both a Knicks and Manchester United supporter. I am drawing some parallels and articulating how my fandom of one team has helped me cope with being a fan of the other. Knicks Overview We all know this team - extremely mid since the 2000s, seemingly...

Re: Thibs watch

it's evidence in support of the case that thibs can't be here next season with the knicks projected to get 2 1st round picks. no more trading 1st round picks and expecting undrafted players and nba journeymen to cover the talent needed to win. it's time to shift to player development instead of con...

Re: [Game Thread] Knicks vs. Bucks, Fri. 3, November, 7:30 - ESPN

After 4 games in 6 nights, the Knicks now play 4 games in 11 nights. We could use the extra time. RJ is injured, Brunson is tired, Julius is still on the mend (and a twat), and Thibs first 20 games of the season record is always underwhelming. The good news is the Bucks have looked less impressive ...

Re: Thibs watch

I cannot believe there is a Reddish thread to justify Thibs being dismissed. Reddish is an NBA journeyman who is capable of stringing together a couple of decent games. Thibs will only be dismissed if this current group misses the playoffs.

There needs to be an even season Randle thread.
