We tired...
Barely have more than one day off in between games for the rest of the season. So they, including Thibs, have to figure it out.

Of course your bench is gonna get destroyed on points when it’s just Payne, Precious and Shamet. And they’re all in a terrible slump.

Might as well give Kolek some run and call up other scorers if this is gonna be the case.

When I said the Heat win wasn’t worth getting exciting for I meant it.

Maybe this team comes together, but I think they fire the coach and see if they can bring in somebody else.

The bench isn’t great, but we don’t know if they would play better if Thibs had been playing them for a while. shyt maybe own or two of them could have become good enough to be trade assets.

In addition to winning games Thibs should have been trying to get guys good enough we could have moved them for a future second rounder. We’re that starved for assets second rounders are damn near gold.

People talking about Grimes and Donte D. Maybe Aller could pull a mini miracle and get one of them if the Knicks had anything they could afford to trade.

I am surprised no one is saying that Thibs could have played a lineup of

JB Deuce OG KAT Huk/Mitch
With a bench of
Hart, Mikal, Payne/ shamet (either or not both) and Kolek

Earlier in the season and we might be going into the off-season with trade asset in Kolek to move with Precious via S&T (through two consecutive trades) to get either Grimes or DDV and Hart and Mikal off the bench could have made things better minute wise. However Thibs decided it was going to be a 5 out offense knowing damn well he isn’t an offensive minded coach.

I will bet money if they bring in a new coach that is exactly what they will do, because it’s not rocket science on what this roster needs. Thibs has just been stubborn like he always is and then Huk/Brunson got injured.

That's typical homer delusion (edit: not you specifically)

Minnesota has no incentive to trade DDV back to NY, optics for one, and two he's on a great contract value-wise

The way Grimes is hoopin now, he isn't coming back to NY just to stand in the corner again.
