Robinson Questionable

Burks doubtful

Ntlikina out

I would assume Noel would start with Gibson backing him up if Robinson cant go

Keep the momentum going. Also, pumped that Nets Bucks is on TNT tonight. I want to see this new Nets team in action. I believe Irving is questionable tonight.

Vucevic would eat Randle alive. Good game to get Taj in the mix.
Mitch will start....

They will dominate most teams offensively, i want to see what happens when they go up against a team that will play physical and can score
Cavs trying to trade Porter jr  
nygiants16 : 1/18/2021 11:45 am : link
if they cant trade they will release him
Nice to see Mitch trying to gut it out through some bumps and bruises.  
bceagle05 : 1/18/2021 12:11 pm : link
Feels like he’s growing up. Has yet to foul out this year either!
Vucevic the Knick Killer.

I really liked Porter coming out.  
Jim in Hoboken : 1/18/2021 12:22 pm : link
We should grab him. DSJ or Frank in a trade?
Gotta give that turd Payton credit  
Stu11 : 1/18/2021 12:31 pm : link
He's playing well today.
Why Noel ever puts the ball on the floor  
chopperhatch : 1/18/2021 12:47 pm : link
In any offensive series is mind boggling. The guy might be the worst offensive big I have ever seen
Barrett , while certainly playing better,  
chopperhatch : 1/18/2021 1:00 pm : link
Is still such a pussy going to the hoop. Hes a pussy defending it too.
I’m embarrassed to admit  
bceagle05 : 1/18/2021 1:09 pm : link
I wanted them to keep Morris last year and re-sign him - thought he was a good vet leader to build with. Instead we turned him into the Clippers first rounder (Quickley) AND Detroit’s second rounder this year, which could easily be the first pick of the second round. We don’t get many things right, but that was a steal of a trade. Meanwhile Morris was awful after the trade and signed a big contract he won’t live up to.
Randle struggling offensively 3-11  
nygiants16 : 1/18/2021 1:11 pm : link
Knicks still up 9, defensively locked in
I still have hope for Barrett  
steve in ky : 1/18/2021 1:21 pm : link
He is mature and a hard worker and I can see him working hard enough to where he becomes a consistent good shooter. Plus he constantly is looking to take it to the hoop. That's something Frank and Knox still hasn't learned, and RJ is only a handful of games into his second season.
That's such  
Jon in NYC : 1/18/2021 1:23 pm : link
a ticky tac bullshit call on RJ. Probably the nicest move all year called off.

I thought so at first, but he very clearlyhooked the defender's arm while going up.

Randle not only looks like shit but decided not to get back on D that time.

Can we just move on from Payton? Rivers and Quickley can be our rotation

Haven't watched Knicks at all in years, short snips here and there. But BBI was so smitten with IQ I had to take a peek. His extended playing time in the Celts' blowout was a hoot: he is so quick, his shots from deep are all net (dunno his % that game 3s or 2s) and he likes to distribute, very smooth with the ball. Very, very likable, and it seems like he's having fun.

Im sure he is a hard worker, but just how much better of a shooter can he become? Hes pretty bad now.

I also dont see him going hard to the net, he starts hesitating once he gets within 5 feet.
This about the worst shooting from two teams that I've ever seen

Off the court, he's very mature and professional as well. A real game-student.
My only beef with Thibs  
nygiants16 : 1/18/2021 1:46 pm : link
is his rotation, no reason Payton, Rj and Randle shpuld play entire quarters..

I don't mind him giving Payton the 3rd if he expects to give Quickly most of the 4th.
That was one ugly quarter  
Greg from LI : 1/18/2021 1:49 pm : link
Both teams looked terrible
What does Thibs expect?  
nygiants16 : 1/18/2021 1:51 pm : link
he freezes his bench, and as soon as they do something they are off the court..

He needs to mix and match more, and i know it is early and he is still learning the team but they were struggling and needed a jolt
Honeslty fuck this shit  
nygiants16 : 1/18/2021 1:58 pm : link
just play your starters 48 minutes
This game is as bad as it gets  
Br00klyn : 1/18/2021 2:02 pm : link
Nobody on the knicks want to shoot the ball so they are all driving it into a crowd and forcing a terrible shot near the basket
This is hideous  
Greg from LI : 1/18/2021 2:03 pm : link
.
Yeah, today’s rotation has been a mess.  
bceagle05 : 1/18/2021 2:03 pm : link
Quickley might be the second best player on the team - no reason to bury him like that when he had it rolling in the second quarter. Play him with Payton for a stretch if you must - Rivers doesn’t need to be the sixth man every night.
starters are exhausted  
nygiants16 : 1/18/2021 2:06 pm : link
and bench is freezed out..

You got to mix and match, this is terrible
The minutes distribution for Quickley for the seas has been fine  
Ten Ton Hammer : 1/18/2021 2:06 pm : link
but I don't get it with Payton. Just make the PG rotation Quickley/Rivers.
I really get why bulls fans hated Thibs at the end

jesus fucking christ with the Free Throws!  
guitarguybs12 : 1/18/2021 2:09 pm : link
Mitch is somehow getting worse with his FT's year after year. Would be an easy win if we could shoot better than 60%.

jrapps : 1/18/2021 2:15 pm : link
Disgraceful FT display. So infuriating.
.  
jrapps : 1/18/2021 2:16 pm : link
Don’t deserve to win. Up 14 to start the quarter. Can’t buy a bucket. Can’t shoot free throws.
Knicks exhausted  
nygiants16 : 1/18/2021 2:17 pm : link
Orlando looks energetic hmm wonder why
Don't understand  
Peter from NH (formerly CT) : 1/18/2021 2:20 pm : link
Q not playing
good thing 2 daya off  
nygiants16 : 1/18/2021 2:24 pm : link
Randle looks like he can barely move
I’d like to forget  
bceagle05 : 1/18/2021 2:27 pm : link
I ever watched this game.
A win is a win  
larryflower37 : 1/18/2021 2:28 pm : link
Ugly game
Barrett and Randle both with a double-double.
7-8 after 15 games. Well overachieving.

Tough west coast swing coming hopefully Burks is back.

Yeah, not pretty. But I'll take a win.

Randle in the postgame: "I couldn't throw a rock in the ocean today."
A win is a win.  
Jon in NYC : 1/18/2021 2:29 pm : link
Nice to sweep a back to back. Annoying that IQ got the quick hook in the 2nd half.
Put it in the books!  
steve in ky : 1/18/2021 2:31 pm : link
Wasn't pretty but an early game on a back to back. I'll take it.

Two days off then three games in four days on the road - GS, Sacramento and Portland.
as of this moment we're the #6 seed  
Del Shofner : 1/18/2021 2:33 pm : link
in the East, lol. Keep it goint!
Gave up only 75 and 83 in back to back games, that's some solid D  
steve in ky : 1/18/2021 2:35 pm : link

Should have read 75 and 84
