Over the last few games even though the New York Knicks have been winning they have been displaying some concerning trends. We saw similar trends occur during last night’s loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. From Grimes starting, to Mitchell Robinson’s utilization, to the Knicks three-point defense, the New York Knicks must address these concerns moving forward in order to be the best team it can possibly be. Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!

The top tier teams expose our weaknesses, lack of size , iso ball , enabling Randle to kill momentum.
Cwc- this is what im saying by thibs u can put our 2bigs vs. they bigs.. then u will still have bruson RJ Barret n randle out there too handle the ball
Grimes been inconsistent send him to the bench we are not a elite team 🤷🏾♂️🤦🏽♂️
Great commentary!!! There’s very little that I can add to what you said! I totally agree with what you said.
I will add that the Knicks suffer against teams with length. Boston, Milwaukee, and the Timberwolves to name a few. As much as I like Hart, it’s sad to see him having to play out of position against long players.
Last night’s game exposed a lot of long known issues with this team, and it’s time for the organization to start making some trades.
The Knicks have been Flawed for the past 2 years and the Architect of the team is Tom Thibadeau.
look I know that Grimes been struggling bad, but were throwing shade at Quentin Grimes when he literally just came back from a hand injury, is he really playing bad because he's better off the bench or is it his hand? Did we not forget that Grimes just came off the flipping injury list??? After injury his hand in a game that we almost lost to against the hawks in Atlanta again, both wins in Atlanta by the Knicks have been some of our best wins this season thus far outside of blowing by the clippers in Harden's debut, but we made 2 wins in Atlanta difficult. And now were showing shade at Quentin Grimes for playing like dog crap after getting injured against the hawks, and sucking in his recent and first start since coming off the IL because of people saying Brunson and him are not a good starting duo. That's crap!!!! And yes, although I do agree either Hart or DiVincenzo should start over Grimes and Hartenstein should get minutes with Robinson at times but Coach Thibs hadn't decide to that yet, think of it, a passing big in Hartenstein and a rebounding monster in Robinson on the court at the same time to close out a game? Over Randle when he slumps? Think of it Coach Thibs think of it already! Oh and Coach Thibs should stop it with the 9 man rotation, it wont work every single night on a consistent base, that's unhealthy basketball. Straight up, absolutely unhealthy basketball playing 9 man most nights, make it 10 or more. Trust all your guys!
Yeah the 3 point defense is still suspect like last season. All the switching then if there's any type of penetration it's way too often 3 point shooters are left wide open with knicks tryna scramble out to contest. I only caught the 2nd half and I guess Mitch was way better in the first half but Gobert was embarrassing Robinson in the second half. It was bad. Grimes has the tools to be way better but maybe Thibs should put Donny in the starting lineup.
Also last night it seemed like it just wasn't our night. Nobody could hit from long range and Minnesota was hitting everything.
I love qg, but I have to agree.
I agree with you on that 💯 no He doesn't and I agree with you on Mitchell Robinson, the New York Knicks.
Need to add him and the offense a lot more Maybe i'm wrong but Is it time to get a offensive Minded coach i'm just maybe Tibs has took the Knicks as far as he can go 🤔
so compromise the defense? Grimes have better D, he'll come around
Thank goodness you're not in the front office,the hate for Qg is ridiculous,I'm still rolling with the kid,DD ain't doing no better,yes it's your opinion.
So true the Knicks supposed to start Dante
