I think you had like 1k subs when I first subscribed. Channel growing at a steady pace George. 👍💪
Very interesting point about Julius and crowd volume.
I'm happy we won. However, it was good we were playing a team with one of the lowest basketball IQ's in the league. A lot of negative plays from the Knicks tonight, but they are covered up by the win. Julius with 5 TO's. DRose not being able to hit wide open 3's. RJ with a couple of airballed 3's and a few bullheaded drives into the lane. IQ twice dribbling into no-mans-land for a TO. A couple of ugly TO's, which led to easy T-Wolves baskets. Again, the T-Wolves aren't the sharpest knives in the drawer and they failed to exploit the foul trouble Sims and IH were in.
Quiet arena is honestly a really good theory for Randle tonight lol would not surprise me. Randle was in such a good mood all smiles, which I love to see and I don't want to be a pessimist here but when he's really feeling himself he often gets lost in the moment and takes awful unnecessary shots just cause he's hot. It wouldn't hurt to use that gravity to create an even better shot for your teammates only 3 assists tonight. Back on the positive tho Randle was awesome tonight. Some other thoughts; the ball stopped moving in the 2nd half I don't understand how we can look like a completely different team one quarter to the next, Obi's shooting has been incredible, Brunson understands exactly what is needed in the moment and brings it, RJ really cooled off he was 7 for 11 in the 1st half I believe, Fournier will find his place soon we'll see
edit: YES that Fournier assist to Sims honestly felt so good made me happy seeing it, just reinforces what a great teammate he is
damn i missed the game. thanks for the update.
What up George??!!
Nice win tonight. I think our team is telling us to be patient. I also believe that the play of the team is going to dictate/demand rotation improvement. As we have been saying all along, PLAY THESE KIDS!!! As they get more PT, they seem to blossom. I am referring to Sims. I really like his athleticism. I think he has some basketball smarts. He blocks out his defender and makes clear paths for dribble drivers. He DEFINITELY alters shots in the paint. He is energetic. I think he did a good job tonight in his first start.
We are on our way. I see incremental improvement. This is where we want to be. I constantly remind myself that we are in the third year of a rebuild. We are doing quite well from that perspective. We are learning from our mistakes. Patience is the word for Knicks' fans. We are on our way. I like the way that RJ is playing himself into that all-star that we know he can be. I thought he was a little heavy and not in tip-top shape at the beginning of the year. He is coming around nicely. We are good. On to the next one.
Good show George!! I'm going to have to get an early X-Mas present. I need one of those beanies.😁😁😁I appreciate your work bro. PATIENCE.
Can you imagine what this team would look like if everyone played the game with an ounce of CONSISTENCY?🤔
and again in the fourth quarter we played a small five with Randle and Obi, which is a good sign!Thibs COTY!!!!!!
When Randle is on it he's dangerous but never consistent from game to game. Minnesota is not a bad team so that's a good win to shut Edward's mouth for a bit. Never worry about Brunson cuz he's play making. Cam is working from the bench to the starting unit and I'm proud of him. RJ is still good . This team is actually dangerous this season.
MODERN DAY B💣MB SQUAD!

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE PLAY WITHOUT MITCH AND A TAMED EARLY AND OFTEN QUICKLY. BY ALLSTAR BREAK WE GONNA BE A REAL PROBLEM FOR THE NBA-GOD IT FELT SO GOOD TO ACTUALLY LOOK LIKE A REAL PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL TEAM👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🟠🔵
I feel the need to comment on Adam Silva's black-balling of Ime Udoka. He behind the scenes told Joe Tsai NOT to hire Ime Udoka for the Nets head coaching vacancy. This is utterly racist for an infraction that is not uncommon in this world. This a proverbial Emit Till move. Because he is Black and had a consensual relationship with a White married woman he is to be banned for life from the NBA? UTTER hypocrisy. He made a mistake . He was publicly humiliated and now he doesn't deserve a second chance? I am calling the NBA for gutter racism being committed by the upper echelons of the NBA administration. Stop this racist atrocity. Give the head coaching vacancy to Udoka.
RJ is a piss poor defender. He has too many turnovers also.
You fail to point out the defensive weakness of this team. . Perimeter defense is utterly pathetic. It is not only Mitch's absence. You are sweeping it under the rug.
Against a better team the Knicks would be wiped on the floor like a dust mop. The defense was forgotten again for the most part.
Good win! On pace for 41 wins so far. starting in January I expect the Knicks to win 60-70% of their games as other teams look to tank and we gel as a team.
Oct-Dec = 18-19 wins (50%)
Jan-Apr = 31Wins (70%)
No defense no playoffs.Against a good team this would have been a big loss.
George looks like he's having a rough time saying Randle was the star of the FKNG show against the Wolves and HEY no one was perfect. Knick "fans" constantly bust on their players. Most fans would have been ecstatic .
Cam is a star in the making build around him . Trade randle ASAP . Youth movement
Knickstape
I was a little nervous about this game cuz Julius Randle hot shooting made him hold the ball too much and at parts of the game he was a ball stopper and there was no movement and couple of times he had some defensive laps
It's very important for the Knicks to win the next four games! KD grew frustrated against the Mavs -he committed a bad foul, which was followed by a technical late in the fourth quarter. He is being forced to shoulder the entire offense with Kyrie suspended from the Nets.
If you notice, the players with the best "+/-" for the game weren't necessarily the ones who scored the most. Play Obi and Quick more often, and get more wins.
Love your channel brother. Hopefully the suscribers increase 10 fold.
As long as Thibs can retool and adjust, he can and will remain the coach. They are still learning but he’s moving the lineup as needed, especially at the 5. Good game.
I felt like we should've won this game and we did
He always played better on the road last season
7000 subs because you are killing it way to go brother
Trade Julius Randle and Evan Fournier for Kyrie Irving. He has a one year deal and if he is good he wants to stay home in this area near his family and he just had a baby. This whole controversy makes him a cheap get with Donavon Mitchell upside. He is the best finisher in the NBA. Also trade Derrick Rose 🌹💐 to Golden State Warriors for Jonathan Kuminga,Moses Moody and Patrick Baldwin. They're all on Golden State Warriors bench. Jonathan Kuminga is a potential superstar who can shoot, finish, run the floor and play defense ( mentored by Draymond Green and Andre Igoudala). That's a star on the cheap. Moses Moody and Patrick Baldwin can provide much needed spacing. Two of these guys just won a championship with Golden State Warriors last year.
My takeaways for the game: (1) When KAT wants to play like garbage I don't know if there's a player in the NBA that can match him. (2) DLo's "game" is a MINUS. ( 3) Only the Timberwolves can find a way to mortgage their future for a 50-50 chance at the 9th or 10th play-in spot. (4) Randle just increased his trade value by at least 25%. And (5): A trade of Randle for Jae Crowder, Dario Saric (to backup Obi), and a 1st round pick is doable in the near future, and if Leon Rose have the brain and the guts that I think he may have he will get this trade or one similar to this one done soon! Peace George, and by the way nice recap.
