Truth. They feasted in the paint tonight & with a healthy Mitch, he limits that. And a bonus would be moving OG back to SF where he can really impact the game defensively like last season
Yeah, the Knicks can match up with anyone defensively if Mitch and Precious are healthy. Small ball with Precious at center, Double bigs with KAT & Mitch it at PF/C, 5 ball out with KaT at center, Defensive front court with Mitch and Precious, 3 guards full court press with McBride, Hart, and Mikal as the three guards the back court.

All this while the majority of teams salary caps are fukked because they couldn’t balance their books.

These guys just have to execute. Right now there are playoff Teams who can’t even play one look cohesively because they gutted their roster.

All true, but he can’t stay healthy. THAT is his probem & it’s a BIG one (:dame:)
They are letting him heal. He said it himself they rushed him back last year for the playoffs and he did his thing but Embiid injured him again.

I also like Huk as the third center. Sims might low key get shipped out for a second rounder or two.

I don’t know if they keep Sims around. This was his opportunity to at least look competent as a back up center and he is still looking like his best job is hold down the fort during garbage time.

The pacers have the exact same roster as last year and has only managed to be Detroit.

Kenny talks about a serious flaw with our 5 out system and that’s offensive rebounding.


For a coach like Thibs who has been so reliant on Mitch and Hartenstein O-Rebounding this presents a new challenge.

Not a revelation.

Cavs got outrebounded on the offensive glass tonight
I have to find the video but Kenny was talking about how we got limited to two offensive rebounds in the second half.

We suck. Gotta step it up and find chemistry within these next 2 scrimmage games. If we get our ass bust ⏸️ even by 1 pt by Miami or Detroit or don't blow them out, Thibs needs to snuff the entire locker room including Rick and Jalen Brunson. I'm highly disappointed.

Katherine getting his shıt rocked first...

Jalen Brunson is too small to be putting up 24 shots a game. Feed ya bigs you idiot and then get shyt Off. Give me a Jason Kidd type point guard over this guy who gotta work too fukking hard to get a shot off much less even 24 of them. How you have KAT taking less than 20 shots a game is absurd

The shot attempts aren't a problem imo. It's knowing when you don't have it that night and realizing you now have Mikal and KAT that you can defer too, instead of trying to brute force yourself into a rhythm

If he goes 12-24 and we win, nobody is complaining let's be real

With that said, there should be no scenario on Earth where KAT and Cam fukkin Payne have damn near the same amount of shot attempts
