Pretty big game  
bceagle05 : 12/4/2022 4:43 pm : link
for Thibs and the front office. If we get blown out I would expect changes this week.
Knicks get blown out today and I’d guess thibs is gone by tomorrow

You even got donovan Mitchell sub tweeting at the Knicks with a #letemknow
Shams reporting  
bceagle05 : 12/4/2022 5:34 pm : link
that Trae Young and Hawks HC Nate McMillan are feuding a bit and had “an exchange” at shootaround.
Teams know there wont be an adjustment

"You're gonna get those shots. The way that they play, their job is they go out & they try to protect the paint as best they can. So the three-point line is going to be available to you."
It stinks I have to listen to the radio feed because for some reason

the NBA considers me in Cleveland's home territory and blocks the telecast on league pass even thought I'm at least 8 hours from Cleveland.

Ridiculous
The league is all about the 3 point shot, so of course give them free looks

It must because some parts of KY touches Ohio so I'm viewed as in a neighboring state, but I'm nowhere near Cleveland. It's stupid.
2 RJ turnovers in the first 2 minutes -  
Del Shofner : 12/4/2022 6:15 pm : link
I've been an RJ supporter but he really isn't playing well. Missed two 3s so far as well.
This is what gives us false hope  
larryflower37 : 12/4/2022 6:18 pm : link
1-6 from 3 for the Cavs but all of them wide open, eventually they start to drop
I like him using McBride early in rotation  
steve in ky : 12/4/2022 6:24 pm : link

I don't blame Randle for being pissed there -  
Del Shofner : 12/4/2022 6:28 pm : link
he was fouled like five different ways and nothing was called

Because of his often overbearing strength advantage of an opponent he seems to get far too many non-calls when there is obvious contact that would usually result in a foul.
I think Grimes has a chance of becoming a star

RJ with his signature move….  
bceagle05 : 12/4/2022 6:35 pm : link
randomly barreling into three defenders.
Cavs shoot 26% in the quarter  
larryflower37 : 12/4/2022 6:38 pm : link
I like McBride in this game for defense

bceagle05 : 12/4/2022 6:42 pm : link
but I wish a couple of his three point attempts would fall. He’s Frank level on the offensive end right now.
4 turnovers for RJB  
Del Shofner : 12/4/2022 6:48 pm : link
and we are in the 2Q.

He really needs to sit.

I agree he is playing badly right now but it's like he's forgotten things from Basketball 101. I think he can play much better but his mind isn't right, right now. I think sitting him for a couple of games might be a good idea. My guess is he's mentally trying to justify the new contract but he just has to get that out of his head and let the game come back to him.
And he finally wakes up.

Crazy, right? I've never seen so many travels called in an NBA game. Did the NBA issue a decree that the refs are to tighten up on the rule?
Ah yes  
Anakim : 12/4/2022 7:42 pm : link
We're at the "fuck it, I'm shooting it" point of the game from Randle
LOL. So many travels and turnovers.

Holding on for dear life.

The league made calling Traveling  
AG5686 : 12/4/2022 8:14 pm : link
a point of emphasis in the offseason
Knicks defense has been good  
larryflower37 : 12/4/2022 8:15 pm : link
But the Cavs can't shoot tonight.
Hold on we need a win.
Refs turning this into a farce.

It’s crazy that Brunson is bigger than Donovan Mitchell

Well, they certainly responded.  
bceagle05 : 12/4/2022 8:22 pm : link
Dominant defensive effort. Grimes did great work on Mitchell.
well  
Del Shofner : 12/4/2022 8:22 pm : link
that was nice
Grimes and Deuce both good defensively  
Del Shofner : 12/4/2022 8:24 pm : link
if not offensively.

I hadn't been too high on IQ but he impressed me tonight.
That's a good win  
larryflower37 : 12/4/2022 8:24 pm : link
Cavs helped us out tonight but we need that.
Was Grimes on Mitchell?  
Ten Ton Hammer : 12/4/2022 8:25 pm : link
Someone held him to 36% shooting. That's crazy.
Thibs gets to survive a bit longer  
Knickstape : 12/4/2022 8:27 pm : link
Wish we just lost so we could have gotten a jumpstart on a new coach and modern basketball
interesting box score -  
Del Shofner : 12/4/2022 8:32 pm : link
in terms of minutes (not necessarily who was guarding Mitchell) -

Mitch-Hart
Randle-Obi
RJ-IQ
Grimes-IQ
Brunson-Deuce
box score - ( New Window )
So you now have 3 disgruntled players on the bench  
nygiants16 : 12/4/2022 8:33 pm : link
Now we wait to see what they trade Rose, Cam and Fournier for..

Why even bother watching if you feel that way?
So far the Knicks have played  
shyster : 12/4/2022 8:36 pm : link
the Sixers without Embiid.

the Nuggets without Jokic.

the Twolves without Gobert.

the Cavs without Jarrett Allen.

Almost running the table on last year's All Star centers.

And they've won each game.

Did you still watch the giants with judge as a coach. I’m a fan of the Knicks but thibs and this regime are not good and need to be axed. Sooner that happens. The better for this franchise.

Yes I watched every Giants game which Judge coached, you didn't?

I always watch all the teams I root for through both the bad and good times. The winning is a lot more fun and rewarding when you follow them through the journey of getting there.
Bulls lose again  
nygiants16 : 12/4/2022 8:44 pm : link
have to wonder if they make Derozan or Lavibmne available

As did I. Hence me asking that. I watched the game cause I’m still a fan. But the right move for this team is to Pivot to tanking and getting rid of thibs.
Just because I said I wish we lost doesn’t mean I didn’t watch. I tune into all giants and Knicks games. But I am not gonna say I will root for my team
To win when I don’t think it benefits them
Long term. Especially when it comes to basketball
I would like to see them move on from Thibs but  
Del Shofner : 12/4/2022 8:47 pm : link
I never root for any of the teams I follow to lose, Giants and Knicks included.

And full disclosure, I did skip some of the Judge-coached Giants games. But I didn't root for them to lose.

What was interesting about tonight is that it was a real Thibs-style win where the team played very good defense.

Also I would never root for the Knicks to lose at the Garden. I took my kids to many Knicks games at the Garden and you want everyone going home happy.
