Box score won’t show it but ant sold the entire 4th
why is Julius Randle turning into LeBron James when he plays the wolves now? It’s very annoying
Good effort to make it close in the end. They killed us on the offensive glass, turnovers continue to be a very big issue. Onto the next one
That was a truly awful game. Worst one we’ve played in a long, long time. The amount of turnovers we conceded and simple backdoor cuts we allowed were unacceptable. Probably Jaden’s worst game of his career too. Decent comeback, but the game was lost well before then and the late game execution was gross too.. On to the next one
Bench was cold as hell. Still glad we fought back but take the L on to the next one!
Jordan McLaughlin should be in this rotation pretty obviously
Why can’t we just play like it’s the 4th quarter every quarter
Return of the Mac
I’m glad we fought back but we played terribly for two quarters not going to win like that.
Thank you Jmac for breathing some life into this game, even if we didn’t pull out the W
Honestly believe Little Mac staying in could have won us the game, tempo looked unreal with him in there
Jordan McLaughlin!!!
I miss the Rudy lobs. Bring those back.
Moral loss time? Issues ffom that 2nd quarter are gonna remain, but they were in this game till the final minute
Lil JMac is back in the rotation. Hallelujah.
Everyone go hit the showers and wash that game right down the drain.
Some of the worst ball I’ve seen played in that 2nd quarter if we played even half as bad we win this game
It’s not an honorable way to win but I can’t help but feel if Randle gets his 6th on that KAT 3, we win.
KAT and Ant could probably play for 30 straight years together and still have zero 2 man chemistry, despite skillsets that compliment each other perfectly. Truly baffling.
Props for fighting back. 16-4 on offensive glass is unacceptable for a team that plays big, especially only 4 offensive rebounds. Towns and Rudy were always boxed out that lead to a lot of transition points by the Knicks.
Finch might have stayed away from Times Square last night but it looks like the rest of the team didn’t
Mikes three-point streak 🙁
Refs letting Randle foul KAT on his 3 changed the comeback. We also learned McLaughlin needs minutes.
onto the next one.
Also the game thread was a dumpster fire with all the KAT hate the first half lmao.
Hopefully that more spirited effort in the fourth continues into the next stretch of games, cause our offense has been going nowhere lately
If we can ever stop giving the other team 15+ extra possessions a game that would be great.
Can’t even be upset with this game, genuinely believed we could have won but most teams would have checked out down 20 in the third
We lost that game in the second quarter. Either Ant needs to sit earlier in the first or come in sooner in the second. With how often KAT gets into foul trouble we can’t risk an inept offense at any point.
Honestly with how sloppy we’ve played the last few games you could feel this coming. Good to see JMac with solid minutes. Kyle needs to hit open shots. And our first poor clutch performance in a long time.
0-3 in games after major holidays, and no more major holidays the rest of the year!
Whatever. They didn’t earn this one. Just hard to swallow not capitalizing on a 5/23 Jalen brunson gale, and giving up 12 more offensive rebounds is totally unacceptable.
Good fight and JMac minutes. Good to see KAT have a good game again. Just too little too late. Knicks just ate on the boards. Jaden needs to step it up, needs to fight on the boards and clean up the fouls.
Troy Brown having 5 minutes is a crime
Let’s be honest – the team hasn’t been playing too good for several games now and we’ve been fortunate to stay on the winning side most nights. I think the Wolves are about to snap out of it though and get a nice revenge win against the Pelicans next game.
Expecting a leap from Jaden this season and getting regression has been the most disappointing thing. At least the JMac minutes give us something to cling on to from this game
Our star players gotta trust their teammates and move the ball. That late Ant turnover doesn’t happen if he moves the ball earlier. He shouldn’t have 2 assists. Same with KAT, there was no reason to take a tough shot that early into the shot clock against a guy nearly a foot smaller than him.
An absolute stinker. Clearly not as good as we were a month ago. We play better team, I know that, but we have to play better and coach better.
That knicks run in the second is on Finch. Take a TO I beg you.
We still 1st in the West, but the margin isnt what it was. Having room to grow is great if there is some growing.
