Bridges is a 4th option AT BEST. That's what he was for the Suns in that Finals run. For the Knicks to trade all those assets to get him is mind boggling
I stand by the fact it’s coaching but I don’t want to get into that in a playoff thread. He needs to play harder next game.

You think his beef with Thibs is the reason why he's having this performance?

He played the same exact no impact way on the Nets though

Not even that I think he should have more responsibility to get his own shot and should have more plays where he works to either get Towns the ball or get the ball from Towns. It’s too late now, but he should have been given more offensive responsibilities months ago. We seen he could do it when Brunson was out.

He averaged 27 points a game on the nets. He was running the pick and roll over there and getting a lot of his points off the bounce he's averaging 18 as a "catch and shoot" guy.

I guess. But he had all the responsibilities to get his own shot on the Brooklyn Nets and did nothing :yeshrug:

Yeah but it was no impact IMO. Giving him more responsibilities didn't translate to wins :yeshrug:

He was helping win games here playing like that when Brunson was out. We don’t need him to to crazy stuff but he has more of a bag than he uses.

This game was bad so I ain’t saying he is has to do more, but he can definitely do more than the current offense asks him to do.

Jalen missed 15 games and they went 9-6. He averaged 21 and 7

Still playing behind KAT and OG though, as a 3rd option. And when Brunson came back, he was back to a 4th option

Not sure what he could be doing more in the team setup on the Knicks
