pretends to hold everyone accountable except for Randle and Burks who play the same amount of minutes every game no matter how poor they are playing . I Imagine this is how you lose the locker room when you try to be a tough coach but end up looking like a hypocrite
In the NBA than Memphis and they land the next superstar!!!! In a year where they had a much better record than us!!! I mean it's unfathomable that you can suck this bad for most of 2 decades and have no superstar to show for it. Just mind boggling.
and Randle walking away while 2 other Knicks teammates go and help him up . What a shit teammate he is .
Another video posted by Bondy of Randle taking his time getting back on Defense and then coming down and fouling 1 of the bucks players on a 3 point shot.
He played 37 minutes and had 9 points and 4 turnovers with poor effort and lazy defense.Randle just can;t be on this team past the trading deadline. I don't care what the package is coming back , just get rid of him
I guess Forunier had a good game so at least maybe possibly he becomes easier to trade but other then that this game was pointless.
Cam and Mcbride DNP- Thibs being a moron
Obi played 13 minutes, Quickley played 11 minutes, Grimes who was red hot in the 1st half played 18 minutes . All the vets played heavy minutes though as the Knicks are sitting in 12th in the East going nowhere. I mea just what is the point of this ?

No idea, and its not like the young players are bums, they are better than the vets Thibs chooses to play..
You telling me Obi couldnt score 9 points and 11 boards in 38 minutes? i mean Randle does nothing..
Burks plays 18 minutes, plays zero defense, he scored 10 points, you telling me Reddish couldnt do that?
Kemba had a good start but was bodied continuously by Holiday, Deuce couldnt do more?
I mean its not like the vets are playing well, this is ridiculous
I don’t mind keeping Fournier around a bit - I spent too many years watching Knicks teams with zero threats from three-point range. He can still help going forward unless the right deal comes along.
the similar narrative about the Yankees' needing to bench their lumbering home run/strikeout hitters in favor of their athletic, contact hitting minor league call-ups.
It would be nice to be able to believe that the answer is already here and available, but it's not.
The Knicks' bench often gets to play against the opposing bench. If the bench had to play serious minutes against other teams' starters, good things would not happen.
Grimes was -20 tonight in 18 minutes; Quickley -15 in 11. When the plus/minus suits the narrative, it is seized upon; when it doesn't, it is conveniently ignored.
This is a thoroughly mediocre roster, top to bottom, and there is a long and uncertain road ahead to anything better.
Is there a superstar? hell no but there is talent and you can win games with the players on this team if used correctly and i dont think Thibs is.
He has no feel for the game, he sticks to his substitution patterns and doesnt deviate from it, he sticks with his guys longer than other players..
Last night 3 times he took out the hot player because it was time he scheduled for a sub, meanwhile Randle plays full quarters as he is missing shots, holding the ball and having turnovers..
If you are a player other than Randle and probably Rj, how can you play for a guy like Thibs? every player the second a player has a turnover the coach is flailing his arms like the player committed the worst sin on the planet..
You look over and Thibs is cursing and screaming, yet when Randle makes a mistake, nothing, no screaming, arms crossed not saying a word..
Toppin misses a shot or has a turnover, ok out..Grimes was hot from 3, had 2 bad turnovers, instead of saying to Grimes hey just be careful with the ball, Thibs is screaming waving his arms and takes him out..
It is ridiculous at this point, the coach needs to be the calming force of a team, not looking like a nutjob on the sideline. Popovich when he gets mad at a player or the player looks out of sync, he takes him out and talks to him, maybe yells and then puts him right back in, doesnt matter who it is or was, he treats every player the same..
Interesting stuff. Funny with the rest of his life stuff that dude was out in tin foil hat territory, but his Knicks takes were comforting and reasonable and actually have the best chance of coming true.
Should be RJ, Grimes, and Fournier right now. Let RJ bring it up.
The opposite of a feel coach. At least his closing units are good usually.
When Fournier starts to get cold go to Quick..
I just dont see the need for Burks

Burks and Kemba need to go.
But you sit there and get mad when Toppin Misses a shot..
1st quarter Kemba and Fournier were carrying the offense takes them out
2nd quarter Grimes is hot from 3, takes him out
3rd quarter Fournier is hot, takes him out..
I am done with Thibs, may be the worst in game coach i have evwr seen
Forget the fact that Burks and Randle are gicing him nothing, its not their fault its the teams fault..
and i want the same for the young guys, quickley should kf been taken out earlier he was awful tonight..
Taking out Grimes in the 2nd and taking out Fournier in the 3rd was malpractice..
If i am a young player i want out, this ridiculous, nothing they do will get them more minutes

Knicks trade a 1st for him and Thibs doesnt play him at all..
I’d bench Randle til he’s eligible to be traded. He’s quit.

Nope according to Thibs he does so much for the team other than scoring..
and remember its not the starters fault, its everyones fault..

but instead Thibs gives him no minutes and instead we watch the slow footed Burks playing, bringing absolutely nothing..
