shot Attempts are a problem for brunson. He has to work too hard to get his shot off and thats Not durable or realistic for the long term. hardly any of those shots are effortless. the Knicks don’t have a developed backup and have viable scorers. He needs to pass the fukking ball ole blockhead ass fukker.

I'm just saying the timing of this complaint is interesting lol.

He's a scoring PG, that's his DNA, and he's still the best option on offense, but he's never gonna be a floor general, Chris Paul in the face ass PG.

Last night looks bad because its clear he was forcing it when Bridges had it going. Being realisitic all I'm asking is for him to realize quicker when it's not his night.

That’s a coaching issue & Thibs isn’t the guy to fix that.

Knicks lowkey fukked. I believe in them to figure out how to get the chemistry right between Kat & Brunson but the natural ebbs and flow, modern basketball movement on the court? Nah I don’t think they’ll figure it out and they need a different coach to bring that out of them.
Well you nailed it right there, the ebbs and flows that call for high basketball IQ. This season what the Lakers are doing with AD, what OKC is doing with Chet, even what the Clippers are doing with Zubac who has a fraction of the talent of KAT... there's just certain things that should be intuitively recognized.

But right now it's clear watching NYK play that they don't have that in their DNA yet.

this ain’t a complaint but rather an observation. The Knicks were successful with a big and facilitating guards who defend. A high usage guard isn’t coming out of the conference with a big like KAT who can dominate the game. I challen your observation tent he is the best option of offense when you have a big that shoots a better fg percentage inside and outside than your undersized pg.

If KAT had the mentality to dominate the game on a regular basis, Minnesota would've never traded him to begin with

Damn. I seen more positivity from fans of NFL teams off to a 1-2 start!

Everything I've seen wrong is fixable. Concerning, yes. But fixable. Towns needs to get more active and Thibs coached him before. I believe this is why they pulled the trigger so close to the start of camp. They figured there was familiarity there and it wouldn't be as hard to integrate what will be a big part of your offense. I'm glad we realized as early as game 3 that KAT needs more than 8 shots against a quality team.

1 thing I see that I already knew is JB does work very hard for his points. Like real hard. Even when he jukes the shyt out a mf, it looks like it took a lot. He may have to learn to defer to KAT down the stretch. And KAT will have to learn to want to be 'That Guy'.

I may have played a part in the Cavs loss. I was high AF. I'm currently in possession of some high quality ZA. I'm watching the 4th quarter not tripping cuz I think its the 3rd quarter and we'll get it together. JB goes to the line, me and cuzzo laugh because we know this nikka never makes 2 FT's in the clutch. I say its the 3rd quarter its all good. Cuz goes :dahell: but didn't say shyt. A few minutes I realize that shyt says '4th quarter' in the corner and we running out of time on the wrong side of the lead. I think I stayed on the Yankee game too long. I swear I don't even remember Brunson going to the locker room. I feel like if I was locked in, the ball woulda bounced our way a lil more. My bad.

1) Jalen should defer to KAT in the beginning of games like he did Julius.
2) Tighten that shyt up. :ufdup:
