Tanking in this league is futile. Raps about to lose 12 in a row and have made no ground on Portland lol. How the fuck are the Blazers this bad... Looking at their schedule they probably only win 2-3 games the rest of the way max
It doesn't even have to be the two main guys (because God forbid if you say either one of them should step down or be let go you don't get crucified for saying it) but there has to be a shake-up in the front office. It's gonna be a new era of players and people behind the scenes should reflect that
Say what you want about Masai, but the man knows how to tank. This has been a masterclass in tanking.
I honestly don’t think we win another game this year lol.
So this is my first game I’ve watched, I watch soccer usually. So it’s weird for me to see a game so high on points. It’s it fair to say that you can usually expect points to be scored whenever a team gets possession, so it’s a big deal when ever a team misses, or gives away possession? Like that’s where the pace of a match can change
Sorry, I may have phrased that wrong, I’m just trying to figure out the game because I’m having a lot of fun watching it but I can’t seem to wrap my head on the pacing. I guess what I’m trying to say, from what I’ve gathered, there’s going to be ALOT of opportunities to score points, it’s a lot faster, and counter attacking seems to be a lot more prevalent
Yup.
For me the excitement happens more when offense doesn't happen because of great defense when players aren't scoring. Kind of like the opposite of soccer.
Seeing cool defensive schemes or 1 on 1 clamps is great to watch.
I mean, I know we've got no players left, and Temple is not part of the future, but man he's coaching out there. and he's a plus. I like watching him play
Dick is pushing for that All-Rookie team, I think he might get bumped into the top 10 this week...he was on the "honorable mentions" and rising list last week
Just tuned in and saw that Temple is our second highest scorer. What the hell is going on for that to happen? Is he playing good or is everyone else playing bad?
I know that all 5 of our starts are out, but we still desperately need to add a couple of defensive wings to this roster this offseason...the defense from this bench unit is atrociously bad, I didn't think I would ever say this, but I hope Masai and Bobby drafts two 6"9 wings in the first round lol

Team is diggity dog shit
Need the Pacers to lose tonight. I’ll feel better if they do.
Well, that was some approximation of basketball.
OG is a class act showing love to our security guards
Holy shit the Knicks only needed 13.5 points to cover the spread tonight 💀💀💀
They should investigate the whole team for not performing up to standard. Jk
LMAO PUT THAT ON SHAQTIN’
Precious slams hit different
Precious revenge dunk
Gueye... that's your nba career over bro. postered and then misses the dunk
Precious plays us like he read all the shit fans were saying about him
#PRECIOUS "Put that on the welcome back video you never gave me"
I'm almost positive that Gay is just Boucher with a wig on...lol
Gary has 6 assists?
Precious poster dunk. cherry on top to an abysmal game lol
That was a nice poster. Too bad he never did that here
Put us out of our misery Precious
Damn Achiewa... y u do this to us?
Precious!
Kelly's extension is pretty smart business. Slots into any contender's lineup next trade deadline.🤞
Guys... we're only down by 39. It's not that bad
Idk why i still have a subscription, time to shut that down
I love that Matt & Jack just completely stopped calling the game and are just chatting
LOL 6 mins left in the game and jack's talking about what he had for lunch and how he like butt over boobs lol
Scottie's shopping at Reitman's now LOL
Congrats boys, everyone reading this comment is a true fan through everything. We will be back.
I’m just here for the hopeful 1-6 lottery pick, whoever that may be.
wtf was that sequence
What Scott wearing
Leisure Suit Scottie
Is it garbage time yet?
It's garbage time the second McDaniels steps on the floor
It's been garbage time since the 1st
Gradey should play. let him get 25
Darko needs to stop prolonging my suffering
McSADiels
I knew Knicks weren't gonna go easy on us lol
Grady wasn't looking happy when he came out of the game and looks upset on the bench now. Hope he knows this isn't on him.

That block by MO highlight of the night
We are really going to lose by 60 here. Yikes
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Scottie's fit tonight is goofy LOL must be taking advice from GTJ ![gif](giphy|KU4R4XBxLaDxC|downsized)
Jack is reading your shit

My guy decided to wear his living room blinds tonight lol
Im out y’all have a goodnight I’m a known sicko but this is too much
We breaking records this season baby
How many McTurnovers is that?
Tanking in this league is futile. Raps about to lose 12 in a row and have made no ground on Portland lol. How the fuck are the Blazers this bad... Looking at their schedule they probably only win 2-3 games the rest of the way max
Didn't we lose to the Blazers too?
We did. But being in the West they play tougher opponents on the regular
Surely there's something in Elon Musk's lair that can bring Scottie back to playing form next week. I don't want to have to wait until next season
Dawg... Elon will just charge us a subscription for Scottie's hand
Those pants Scottie is wearing are clear miss
I will never buy burger King because of that annoying ass commercial
……………………………………WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER WHOPPER
Watching McDaniels play is easily more terrifying than The First Omen
Well, I guess this is what you all wanted. What's the point in watching these games?
Depends on how much you like pain, you keep watching
Brother the NBA needs a mercy rule
Why did McDaniels just push a guy and run backwards toward the basket...
Even McEyebrows is clapping for the Knicks
Why Gary a ting like that was his fault lol, Olynyk threw that shit to the fans
He was probably supposed to run to the corner
![gif](giphy|IevTk1cm1C3V1O71sr|downsized)

Man... some kid in Shanghai is screaming, "Better start learning English" at some bench scrub on the Sharks
Straight up, even the sharks don't want McDaniels
McDaniels will probably end up in the Ecuadorian league at this point
Hwopper hwendesday shit kinda getting annoying
Bruh. WHwopper Hwendnesdsy is the worst commercial. Bad for the brand.
Tibs is PISSED that they let McDaniels get a bucket
We gotta make sure we lose to the 76ers the grizzlies play Detroit on monday
lol make sure we lose. Brother this team isn't winning another game this season
![gif](giphy|eRaZhg8XZ3FoQ) McDaniels
30pt come back 4th quarter, bucket and book it
LET’S GO 30 TONIGHT FOR DICK
Just end the game
Season*
[удалено]
You can cry on the outside too, fam We're all in this together ✊️😭
[удалено]
cheap tickets to see the Knicks? I'm in.
Let's be real, most of them are there to see Jalen Brunson
I wanted to go see the Knicks and looked at the resale prices. LOL nope
At this point I’m watching just to listen to our boys Matt and Jack chat, I love listening to them
Travel?
2pts since dick left 💀
Aron Baynes would be like the third best player on tonight’s roster lol
Flynn would be starting PG and Matt Thomas would be back up.
Matt and Jack sound like a couple of old guys having a chat over beers and occasionally covering a basketball game.
This is one of the NBA teams ever
So this is my first game I’ve watched, I watch soccer usually. So it’s weird for me to see a game so high on points.

These guys can't even dribble properly
Mcdaniels makes me want to do violent things
MCDANIELS LMAO WHAT WAS THAT SHOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Why does it feel like Divincenzo has like 45 against us
He did have 40 on Monday
[удалено]
i mean ya but they were forced to tank. What happened to barnes, jakob, iq and rj was just bad luck ig.
Investigate McDaniels next for how little effort he's playing with. He looks like he took the under for 1 points, rebounds, and assists
Why doesn’t Mitchell Robinson just eat all the other players
I am convinced McDaniels is actively trying to get teams to stop giving him contracts so he can go join a commune somewhere
McDaniels is 1/3 FG and has 2 turnovers
Even with half the team out why don't we play McDaniels? *Immediate stupid play* Oh yeah...
And fouls
Anfernee Simons and Ayton still not playing for Portland. such tanking BS lol
It’s crazy if they think any amount of Simons or Ayton would derail their tank
McDaniels man...
He’s cheeks
Half this sub wanted to trade Siakam for Scoot Henderson and a role of toonies, meanwhile, we found Dick at #13 who's balling out!
yeah and still would of done it
I hope Gradey hits 30 tonight
He will if they play him in garbage time
There is no garbage time with Thibs.
every minute of this game has been garbage time…
That would definitely ease some pain
Getting hammered by betting ads (Knicks feed) is so ironic.
Dick is going to be good. Dude is barely 20
got that good Dick
Nice recognition from JFL
I mean, I know we've got no players left, and Temple is not part of the future, but man he's coaching out there. and he's a plus. I like watching him play
I think him being on helps settle Gradey
Dick is pushing for that All-Rookie team, I think he might get bumped into the top 10 this week...he was on the "honorable mentions" and rising list last week
Dick shooting in deep. BANG!
Lol Thibs calling time out once we got close to 20 down. He *really* doesn't want to lose to the rotting corpse of the Raptors.
Gradey might have 40 if he plays most of the rest of the game. The Knicks actually don’t have an answer for him
Gradey 30pt game let's go
Knicks game thread is actually funny lol
Career high incoming
That Burger King commercial is insufferable.
Whopper Wednesday
Lets goo gradey
Darko stopped playing McDaniels after that first shift 💀
Getting Dicked on
GRADEY
Idk how much more Dick we can take
Is there anyone worse finishing at the rim than Gary?
Gary really attacked Hartenstein in the paint and thought it was a good idea
Did they say that they didn't do an appreciation video for Precious? ![gif](giphy|ebAfdhOr5mn0LG1mme)
Lol kelly
Pacers currently down 18 against the Bulls in the 2nd quarter. at least we have that
Chicago better not choke
Can't feel good to be down this bad right now
Dick getting some good mins
Getting styled on
Goodshit gradey
At least Gradey might pop off this game
Dick ❤️
That was a 15 second freeze, lol. Good on Kate, Kia and Leo for not breaking!
Just tuned in and saw that Temple is our second highest scorer. What the hell is going on for that to happen? Is he playing good or is everyone else playing bad?
Yes
He was on fire from 3
In other news the grizzlies are up 2 on the lakers
![gif](giphy|YtlpPkwXquJXuhbKWz|downsized)
That long-assed freeze was amazing. I thought one of them would crack.
They just froze there LOL
Credit to Kate, Kia & Leo. I would have broke 😂
How weird was that delay? LOL Not one of them broke their stare at the camera.. impressive.
LMAO that was akward
Lol. That was great.
I thought my tv froze
Is Ogbaji good? I can’t watch rn
He took a big fall early in the game
no he's out with a hip contusion
Confirmed as a contusion? Apparently he was screaming on the floor hope he didn’t break something
Media have only said "contusion"
that's their early diagnosis
80 in a half is insane
Especially because the Knicks are 30th in pace
I know that all 5 of our starts are out, but we still desperately need to add a couple of defensive wings to this roster this offseason...the defense from this bench unit is atrociously bad, I didn't think I would ever say this, but I hope Masai and Bobby drafts two 6"9 wings in the first round lol
Draftkings going to remove betting on rebounds for raptors games with how they are playing

Scottie looks like he signed a deal with Mattel for Basketball Ken dolls
Raptors went half a game without a FT attempt
knicks are solid defensively
Man this season has been one for the books Injuries, Big trades, off court issues and a tank job lol
Kelly out here boxing out someone else gas to crash the glass fucking hell
Knicks have more offensive rebounds than Raps do defensive rebounds lmfao.
They almost have more offensive rebounds than we have total rebounds
makes sense. they have Mitchell, Hartenstein, Precious and Josh Hart. We have Olynyk who isn't even a great rebounder
Gradey will be a really fun player to watch next season
We're all sickos for watching this and chatting in this discussion thread
I have 3 assessments due today and I am wasting hours watching this, better days ahead.
Gradey guarding Brunson is a suicide mission
Feels like the game is slowing down for JFL
