I hate this Deranged lunatic. Somebody needs to lock this sick fuck in a mental hospital. Kyrie should not be on a basketball court or walking freely.
Good things happen to bad people and it’s very apparent in Brooklyn
Grimes was throwing bricks and got cooked by Kyrie💔
Of course every Nets player (except Patty Mills) becomes a fuckin flamethrower from 3 tonight, 22/40 from deep jesus christ lol, some bad contests but at least 5-10 “what the fuck are they supposed to do” moments
Put brunson in the dunk contest.
Hey we might’ve lost but at least our court isn’t painted in “shitty home flip” gray
Told y’all +8.5 was a lock
Lost to Allen Ivermectin daggers, I’m sick.
how did we go from having an elite bench to a terrible one so fast. Seriously IQ is the only guy making an impact
Kyrie cooked us
I don’t care about the late comeback, this team’s handling of the nets is embarrassing. Every time they roll over and die for them. And this is without KD so there is no excuse. They basically have 4 scheduled losses to Brooklyn every year, and sitting through them is always painful and embarrassing.
It’s honestly a stain on the franchise at the moment. They’re getting better, but losing 10 games in a row to anybody, especially your crosstown rival, is unacceptable
I’m not upset with how they played at the end. The Knicks did everything right, but Kyrie was hitting everything.
What does upset me is how bad our bench is and how we let the lead balloon.
I mean we can’t always win three straight against the top teams in the league, let’s keep grinding though I’m happy we didn’t give up. Also Kyrie is a fucking robot that’s not fucking cool lol
F it…. I’m proud of our guys. Kyrie Irving scoring 20 in the 4th is what it is.
We’re a good damn team
Grimes is a good defender. Kyrie does that too everyone, His shot making ability is insanely good
Fuck that goofy franchise.
Never play Deuce again man. He’s horrendous.
Mcbride is a flat-earther
Kyrie made some insane shots, they left the door open multiple times tho. Starters we’re pretty good but besides quick we just have zero offense off the bench.
3 point shooting is basically hope Randle/Brunson/Quick get hot, that’s our only shot. We need to make a trade
Grimes’s slump is killing us rn
They fought back and made it a game but it’s hard to overcome when the opposition spent the entire game making all their threes
We need to upgrade McBrides spot on the rotation. He’s just not an nba level talent
Why did we pull RJ (who was having a great second half on offense) and IQ (who was on point on offense and defense) to keep Grimes in to brick shots and get killed by Kryie.
Love Randle but we won’t be successful until we have a guy that can take control of the game when it’s needed. Not saying he can’t turn into that guy in the future but he isn’t right now.
They hit 22 3s. Not much to do when that happens. Worst knick of the night? Honestly McBride. Kyrie feasted on that matchup which got him hot for the 4th.
I assume we’re hoping to fill his minutes with a trade piece? L
Nets superstar took over and won them the game. Too bad we don’t have any player of that caliber
OG and Caruso solves so many issues with this team. Make it happen
Are we all in agreement deuce is trash? Or we still giving him more time….
We lost because they made 22 goddamn threes. Our perimeter defense is fucking atrocious.
Tough. But I mean if you told me in the beginning of the week we’d be 2-1 against these teams i wouldn’t believe you
Reasons we lost this game:
1) Deuce: 11 mins, -15 +/-
Obi: 10 mins, -13 +/-
2) Grimes misses 2-3 WIDE OPEN game changing threes.
3) The Nets have a bench and we don’t.
4) BK’s perimeter players hit difficult shots all game.
Nets just hit timely shots. NBA is all about 3pt shooting. Hard to beat any team that shoots 55% from 3
Deuce McBride is a poor man’s Ron Baker.
RJ was playing well in the 3rd and proceeds to get 0 attempts since
– Losing to New Jersey always sucks. That streak has gotta end, and fast.
– Kyrie cooked tonight. The defense should’ve pressed much earlier instead of in the last 30 seconds. The double team should come much earlier, too
– Brunson & Barrett both showed out tonight. IQ was the only scorer off the bench. Jericho played a good game, too. The scoring will come in due time.
– ESPN is one of the worst channels on TV, and their coverage is CHEEKS
– The New Jersey Nets are still an irrelevant team with no fans. KD’s outta there after this year & Kyrie’s a fucking quack.
We are now 1.5 game behind Miami and .5 in front of Atlanta. With our schedule, you have to beat teams that aren’t 100%. We literally choked again…….I’m telling y’all if we don’t get the 6th seed, we are not making the playoffs. The Hawks and bulls will beat us at the garden.
another efficient game from RJ who seems to get iced out when he’s on. No idea why thibs took IQ instead of grimes either.
They shot 22-39 from 3. Not gonna win if that’s the case. Some of the blame goes to our defense- thibs schemes allow the most open 3s of any team I’ve seen. They also were hot, such is life.
We need to start talking about grimes being overrated as a defender at this point in his career. If so I would much rather see iq closing out games with Rj and Brunson than him.
Also, maybe start hartenstein… these slow starts are killing us.
Replace Deuce with Caruso and get OG and out Grimes in the bench. Better Bench and better D.
So what’s the trade market for Deuce looking like
It has now been 3 full years since we beat these fuckers. Almost to the day.
Need to cut them off, man.
Free Drose
​
But in all honestly Id like to see IQ at SG for the starters and bring Grimes back down to the bench. Bring Rose back up and move Mcbride to SG and Grimes to SF. Brunson, IQ, RJ, Randle, Center. And Rose/Mcbride at PG/SG, Grimes at SF, Toppin at PF, Center. Much more balanced overall so the bench isnt completely anemic
can anyone explain how grimes deserves 10 minutes more than quickley every game when quick is badly outplaying him every game?
Won 2-3 of our tough games can’t even be mad
The McBride experiment needs to end, yesterday.
Dude is not a NBA player. Thibs is a moron but that’s a Thibs thing. He’s still stuck in the 90s and doesn’t know what an offense is.
Sims is close to useless. He won’t be in the league for long.
Knicks could really use a big man that knows what an offense is.
It also would be incredible to get a back up, pass first point guard. As much as I like Brunson, he’s score-first and not a great facilitator.
Grimes is the most overrated ‘young’ player by the Knicks fanbase.
Free Obi. Trade the guy so this organization can stop ruining his career.
Let’s go Knicks.
Here for my weekly obligatory fuck thibs post
Grimes might not be all that. I know he’s young but man the inconsistency is maddening.
WTF, they sent Breen to Boston….motherfuckers….
Is quickley just doomed to sit behind inferior players his whole time with the Knicks?
Don’t think I’ve seen a knick miss more open three than Duece and Grimes
Randall is just bad. He can be great but he has a horrible mental game. Loses it too much for NY
