hire thibs as coach + trade for promising but raw young dudes --> ??? ---> profit
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Thursday, 27 January 2022 02:46 (two years ago) link
works well with my theory that this round of knicks management has no actual plan whatsoever but by keeping a low profile and not being embarrassing could hang onto the job for years
― call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 January 2022 02:50 (two years ago) link
watching some of cam reddish play now and if you went into a high tech lab w/ the express purpose of designing a player who thibs would refuse to put on the floor you would come up w/ something very close to him
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 27 January 2022 02:57 (two years ago) link
thibs isn't going to optimize lineups ever so you either have to force him to via roster moves or get a different coach
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, January 26, 2022 9:45 PM (twelve minutes ago)
it's really funny the knicks deluded themselves into thinking that thibs had waved a wand and turned them into a good defensive team instead of accepting the obvious explanation re opponent's three point shooting. rolling out a starting line up of kemba walker, evan fournier, rj barrett, julius randle, and mitchell robinson... they really shouldn't be as bad as they are but that's just a bunch of guys who have no hope of stopping anyone + mitchell robinson who isn't exactly joel embiid as a rim protector, to put it lightly. the back ups just play so much harder it's pretty embarrassing

158-126 final score, do you care to retract your prognostication sir
― Clay, Thursday, 27 January 2022 03:09 (two years ago) link
xp yeah i wouldn't say the quality of the defensive personnel has changed much except they've barely had noel this year, which has definitely hurt them.
it's just a very janky team. they have a lot of nba players, but none of them fit or on the same timeline.

It's buried in the text. an MRI showed internal bleeding that was placing pressure on the spinal cord.

According to that balloting Wiggins is officially an NBA All-Star and a "top 3" player in the WC. Hurry up and trade him for Simmons!

― sknybrg, Friday, 28 January 2022 05:33 (two years ago) link
i would love to read an analysis of what the wolves are doing on defense to be near the top 10, you'd think any team playing russell, edwards, and KAT that much would be bottom 15 by default. vanderbilt looks like a monster but it can't just be him. finch?
― J0rdan S., Friday, 28 January 2022 05:51 (two years ago) link
i think that the wolves are several steps away from winning a playoff series, roster needs to get better, then you need to take your lumps, figure out how to play when opponents are game planning for you across 5-7 games etc but even tonight tho the warriors found some breathing room in the fourth you could see the potential of KAT and edwards as the kind of shot making duo that can carry a team to playoff wins just on the backs of their individual skill and shooting
