  1. CapSRogers

    Nah the Knicks need to be investigated for betting on themselves to blow leads at halftime

  2. CapSRogers

    I’m not joking when I say I fear TJ McConnell more than I do Tyrese Haliburton

  3. GoldenBoyRecords

    I’ll take the win but idk how anyone can look at these blown leads and not see how this poorly reflects on Thibs. Pacers start of third started doubling Brunson and Randle and we never adjusted. The only thing Thibs ever does is panic and put back in the starters but never adjusts to beat what the opposing team is doing. This game was a lot closer than it had to be. Please no one defend Thibs to me saying “ we are top 10 in offensive rating”.

  4. Brunson low key getting some high scoring games, his ppg is amazing.

    Imagine he was never “the guy” in Dallas, never given a chance… they fucked up!!!

  5. SquirmyWeazel

    That game shouldn’t have been so stressful

  6. Mr_Jersey

    Upvote this if Hali is a fake ass all-star

  7. Grimes three and all the NY psychiatric wards collectively breathe a sigh of relief

  8. Why does every team want to play us at home like it’s game 7. Come on now

  9. We made this way too difficult than it should have. We seriously need to work on closing games lol

  10. Ronnie2kDropCode

    It should not have taken Thibs that long to sub in Grimes for Mitch

  11. Working_Ideal3808

    This game is a prime example of why we need another shot maker. Brunson is the only guy who can make his shot when needed.

  12. SlipperSlap

    BRUNSHIM & QUENTHIM GRIMES!!!!

    p.s. FUCK THE REFS

  13. Agitated_Smoke538

    Imagine we didn’t choke those games against Milwaukee and Dallas?

  14. mormonmahomes

    Might actually be a lock for wemby this year if we didn’t have Jalen lmaoo. Guy is so underpaid

  15. NYImpact414

    Why was Grimes on the bench for so long in the second half??

  16. slickrickiii

    Why is Thibs running a 6 man rotation?? The whole team is healthy!!

  17. TreSeven

    If I wasn’t so invested in getting wins, I would be loving life with all this money I make off betting that the Knicks blow a 20 point lead

  18. Why would every team not double Brunson down the stretch. Aside from him this is the least clutch assembly of players I’ve ever seen.

  19. InsideYoWife

    Thank you Grimes thank you Brunson Thank you Mitch

  20. superomnia

    You can easily point to Brunson as the reason we won this game

    But man, we are nothing without Mitch. His health is crucial to this team

  21. smallskeletal

    “Big Time Grimes” so sayeth our lord and savior Jalen Brunson

  22. Braunb8888

    Great win but playing Barrett 40 mins is tits on head insane.

  23. Expensive-Buy1621

    All I want is one normal peaceful calm game. Is that too much to ask for?

  24. and1spree

    Cardiac Knicks. I missed most of the second and third quarters and tuned back in when we were up 22. That was not a very enjoyable hour of television, but win’s a win!

  25. Okieant33

    Carlisle starting to double and us taking it lightly was not fun to watch but I don’t complain after wins. The fact that they needed to throw double teams at us to compete is encouraging and gives our young guys good experience

  26. Jimmit79

    RJ single handedly choke the life out of Knicks fans with that 6 pts freebie.

  27. VirtuousFool

    It can never be said enough

    Jalen Brunson is the point guard that was promised

  28. JonnySports

    IHart with 0 points and 2 boards in 20 minutes. Taj Gibson would genuinely be an upgrade.

  29. Hartenstein – 20 mins, 2 rebounds, 0 points.

    At what point do we start giving Sims his minutes.

  30. Jimmit79

    All the ppl who killed wally and supported a pacer player even if it’s halibutthurton shame on you folks pacer are our lifetime enemies.

  31. Living_Internet_2970

    Wally about to get that sloppy toppy tonight
