The return of multiple personality Julius.
Lost the game when Randle came in 4th quarter 6min mark
THIS IS A GOOD LOSS BEFORE THE PLAYOFFS
Knicks only played well in the 2nd quarter and that's not enough. They let a winnable game get away completely, that's not cool.
They looked gas. All good. Huge week and emotional. We’ll bounce back
It’s all good Randle it’s only one lost you been playing like a beast
all year on to the next one
Ref jobbbb!! Can’t unsee
I was at the game tonight!! Big Randle didn’t play well!! If he plays normal!! We win
They looked tired
There was no LEGITIMATE REASON to play quickley and randle tonight. But an uncreative thibodeau puy him on the court anyway. If we lose to sacramento, the deciding moves in that loss was made during this game.
Knicks ran out of gas tonight. It happens, just rest up for the Kings because they will not be easy. Too many lazy 3 balls and tired legs got them.
Start Hart over Grimes please.. Play miles Mcbride more, he was good today.
Good loss Knickerbockers, way to take a bum team lightly, then try to win it in the 4th after you gave them confidence. Got bum ass Kelly Oubre celebrating after every play, lmao. What a terrible way to end the streak.
that was a bonehead play that caused the knicks the game..Julius has to learn how to control his emotions..period.
Knicks definitely looking tired. They just need to bounce back and hope Brunson comes back soon!
If you know anything about Thibs, know that he is going to run his players into the dirt. The second team in the second quarter had this team humming. He could have let them run and rested the starters a little longer. But no. Thibs is going to Thibs. He is so hard to listen to. Thibs is the one thing about this team that I do not like. Oh well. I guess TIRED isn't a thing in the Thibs playbook. Tired is not in his equation. THEY looked TIRED.
Whether this team wins or loose for some unknown reason i hate too hear this coach's thoughts after games – very strange 🤔😤😲👎.
There needs to be a self evalation that whether win or lose, why 99% of the time, in the last 4 minutes of the 4th quarter, Julius turns the ball over.
Onward!!!
You are seeing our biggest problem: Thibs and Randle!
It hurts not having Jalen Brunson . More importantly, the second unit died without IQ. The difference isnt IQ for Brunson. Its Grimes for Brunson. IQ plays the same either way. The Knicks replaced the first choice point guard , with the third choice. This is why Jalen Brunson deserves some MVP votes. Hes not replaceable.
The Knicks win 9 games in a row. Have arguably the best 2 weeks in a decade or more. And Knicks fans are complaining.
Why are so many of us like this?
We’re not gonna win EVERY game!
Y’all acting like we the ‘96 Bulls!
Knicks led by 8pts before Randle came back ini. Pain
New winning streak 🙌
Randle should’ve not played!! And I bet we would’ve of won bc he was terrible, and looked confused and tired!!! the bench was on fire they kept us in the game !!!! And played with a lot of energy .Thibs drop the ball on this game
That’s ok wear not gonna win them all you guys just need to rest up and get back to business keep up the good work Go Knicks
Crappy percentage shooter RJ BARRETT 27 empty points
Horrible lost man we up 16 at half u gotta close that team out they started the game all losey Goosey thinking they was going to win by just showing up like we haven't won anything to play like that the other team have Professional n b a players that want to beat you end your hot streak!!! Disappointed hope this doesn't start bad habits…. Go Knicks!!!
They didn't look like they had enough time to recover from the Boston game, couldn't rebound or hit 3's in the second half. Thibs has done an excellent job the last three years, but he probably should have extended the bench this game. Sims, Fournier, and Rose could have helped this team in the second half. That said, sometimes it's good to really shock the system and not allow full recovery after an extended effort, especially to prepare for the playoffs, but then you really need to scale it back after doing that. He'll need to extend the bench over the next few games as the team will not get proper recovery until March 24-26th if he doesn't. If they don't extend the bench, this team could easily go into a tailspin IMO.
Thibs should of rested all starters etc & let the bench and rotation players play💯 especially @ the expense of a lost anyway🤦🏾♂️ now they Extra beat up n still gotta play the kings now🤦🏾♂️ Thibs definitely should of just sat they ass down this game but that man does Not know When to say when type s#!t🤦🏾♂️
I had a strange feeling the Knicks were gonna loose this game but it's all good rebound and start another winning streak..
The New York Knicks they let their guard down on our offense and defense that is why they didn't get to win
The New York Knicks will learn from this loss. They will learn that you have to play 4 quarter. They played a great second. So they are learning.
Thibs is gonna run these guys into the ground by the time playoffs come mann. What the knicks needed was energy and besides rj no one was really attacking the basket and making plays. This was a game to play the bench a little more. Im not for missing games due to being tired but the starters deserved some rest and i thought obi and deuce had good energy and could have given us the lift to win this game. This loss doesnt bother me cause it happens but it could been avoided
🏀🏀🏀Randle you play horrible when tired. It’s ok if you ask for a blow. You told Obi. Year ago to work hard in the off season because you’ll need him so let’s see you use Obi to help you be more successful. Thibs will let you look crazy please don’t let him. If you need a blow ask out the game Obi can spell you for a few minutes that will help this team go further.🏀🏀🏀
This the first time I seen the comment section be excited about our team losing knowing the efforts they give us all year let go Knicks might I add to da hornets usually it trade everyone after game like this
Thibs must get the whole team ready, for after dbl.OT GAMES.
With the same record we would be tied for 3rd if we were in the Western Conference
The Knicks have been balling,they we're definitely ran out of gas more so on the defensive end.Rest up and get back to doing what we do hoop.
The 9 man rotation does not work when your players are gassed. Thibs yanked out obi and the 2nd unit when they were building the lead back up and getting stops. Randle clearly had no legs no energy and was turning over the ball left and right. I don’t understand the lack of adjustments. This was a night where the rest of roster should have been utilized.
