Rebounding… Hartenstein and Mitch are disappointing so far
Thibs basically played 6 players today. Obi 6 minutes. While Randle jogged up the court on defense all day. Refused to rotate and basically played zone while everyone played man. Love was open the whole game. Thibs is terrible
How about Rose with his experience…?
Y'all complaining about the refs are funny AF. Only reason the Knicks have a win in this series is because of Scott Foster 😂
Heat ain’t getting no ring this year how y’all even still playing a team that wasn’t supposed to get 38 games this season and is the laughing stock of the NBA heat trash lol
We all know what we have to do.
Long story short. Randle can not be your leader and Thibs can not be the coach for Randle. Randle has been dogging it all series on defense. Not rotating and jogging ,walking up court but you give Obi six minutes. Ridiculous. Hold Randle accountable like you hold everyone else. Watch the MSG replay. Randle was defenseless.
TRADE JULIUS AND MITCH FOR ANYONE AND BE DONE WITH IT, FIRE THIBS AND GET A CLOSER WHO DOESN’T THINK IT’S 1997
You have a veteran siting on the bench. More experience in playoffs.. Miami veteran's cooking
Miami bench got +30 points and Knicks 10 😠 😡
Trash ass Knicks 😂
Heat is just BETTER!! Better coaching…Better bench…Better stars!! Randle is NOT a playoff player and should be traded this offseason!! Lights are too bright for the young guys!! Great season…but it's OVER!!
Haha mcnutt. Hold that you slag
Mitch could be better but you can’t blame him for the rebounding problems multiple ppl are boxing him out and their guards are jumping and helping with long ball efforts . Boxing out our guards or just out hustling them . I seen multiple plays everyone expects Mitch to get the board just standing around not boxing out or nothing . Running on the break before the rebound is secured . can’t blame Mitch rebounding is a team effort
Monica is salty and shes has clown makeup all over her. Mrs top 5 not even jimmy butler smh.
Do or Die at the Garden, Game 5. Need that home-crowd energy to lift the boys!
We’ve got to play Rose n Fournier in the next game. We stand no chance as is
New York stand down!!!! 😂 heat is a better team, it’s a wrap!!! Heat in 5!!!!!
Why do head fans keep commenting on a Knicks post. You guys make this team unlikeable and they ain’t going to the finals. Also we see thibs can’t coach a championship team. He can’t make adjustments. Heat are basically in a zone all series and thibs will not put Evan Fournier at all. You have to shoot teams out the zone. And you know they like to shoot the 3. Crash the boards.
DEFENSIVE REBOUNDING, TURNOVERS and the 3s absolutely were DEMORALIZING. this loss truly hurt us , just out worked and out hustled us.
I don't understand why Fournier has been moved to an emergency only back up player. The guy can shoot lights out, AND he can make his own shot, he isn't just catch and shoot. Knicks have a gritty defence but I question the way this team has been used in the playoffs. Do they really think we can just throw it to Randle and Brunson, then hope for the best? Spolestra is taking advantage of the Knicks fatigued starters by throwing fresh bodies at them in a bigger rotation.
N.Y. can't possibly win this series when the Officiating won't ALLOW them too scratch and claw the opposition like they're getting beat on wow.
Only the 4th Analyst is objective.. the other three are salty knickerbucker fans
Pathetic…..everything from the coaching strategy to the commitment of the players on offense and defense was a disaster for the Knicks.. Coach played basically 6 guys… Trade Randle he plays as if it's all about him…
I've been saying this all year Knicks will never win a championship their offense is too staggering no ball movement too much one on one SMH COACHING PROBLEM TO ME Patrick Ewing days are over with catch-up New York.
Successful season regardless. This tells that Thibs is not the coach, and Randle isn't the playoff player we need. We need a coach that will properly utilize the roster and can make adjustments. And these play callings make you not want to watch the NBA anymore. It's distasteful
It's over for The Knicks… Grimes, Quickley and them didn't do sh*** in this series
They playing 10 guys how.many players this thibedou dude is playing he act like he only have brunson and hart i really dont understand his strategy 😡
Thibs, in my opinion, played the starters way too many minutes. He panicked and didn't trust our biggest asset our BENCH
We gotta play more players during the damn game. We was gassed PERIOD!
NO DROSE MAN…GIVE HIM ONE GAME!!!!
I swear nothin else in my life brings me this much stress. Not women, not jobs, not politics, it's this freakin team! Losing to a REC BALL club!
These hosts are saaaalty. 😂 😂
unless thibs changes something they going to lose again. the thing he need to change is just one. get mitch back on the offensive glass. if he needs to have someone back pick for him after the roll so be it. the overriding key for a knicks win is to offensive rebound. without that the whole thing crumbles. i dont care about defensive rebounds. offensive rebounds is the key. the knicks play good enough defense and have lot of young depth. that in of itself will hold down the other team withing stricking distance. but the knicks cant shoot straight and scared to take a midrange. so offensive rebounding is 10x more important and what won them games. the garden wont matter. only mitchel robinson matters. and not letting love throw baseball passes ever. if they figure that out they can win 3 games i gaurantee it. come back to this post if the knicks win at msg. you will see its because they doubled miami on offensive rebounding. and if that becomes the case then they will win 3 straight and go to the eastern conference finals. if they do not figure out the offensive boards they could play 20 more seasons with the same team win 50 games and get bounced in the first or second round for the next 20 years.
Maybe the heat players can stop intentionally stepping on peoples ankles or invading space to mess up ankles. Dirty players.
Obi needed to be sat down after showing UFO shots. He needs to develop mental toughness in deeper rounds of the play-off. I will still give him the benefit of the doubt that he will be much better next year. However, in the NBA the older players age rapidly, so as a young player he is expected improve quicker or he could be sent to another team.
IQ was healthy almost all year and then gets a bad sprain when he is needed the most. Just a bad luck for the team.
The rest of the team fought valiantly despite their being behind from the beginning. They simply lost to a more experienced team who have players with white and balding heads.
My dream (and it’s only a dream) is: they can win in the Garden next and take it from there the rest of the way.
I’m OK with the coach despite some criticism from perfectionists. He has a young team. His team is probably the only team left standing without maximum-salaried players or at least players being paid more than 30 mil.
However this season is a success.🙏✌proud of the Knickebockers🧡💙
Bye bye NY 😂😂😂😂Knick tears taste like soda pop 😊😊😊
Thibs looking clueless right now. The 3ball is not dropping and the offense is not diverse enough. Next season they will need to play more pick and rolls with the bigs. Honestly Grimes and Robinson looked a bit overwhelmed at this level of the playoffs.
Knicks were going for the pump fake all the time?! C’mon they have to be more smarter than that.
Derrick Rose was ready and available to play why does coach continue with his stubborn ways?!
