PG: Knicks Tamp On Sixers Maxey Pad

iHart / Randle / OG / DDV / Brunson
Bench: Mitch / Precious / Hart / McBride
Situational: Bogs

It's going to be interesting how Thibs uses Mitch vs. Precious vs Bogs in the playoffs...

Maxey coming back and we thrashed them sort of erases the last loss as a one-off

Missed the second straight game! Gotta watch the replay now! Glad to hear OG played well and the team rolled over Philly. Portland is next!!

This man is earning his paycheck!

Not fully, until he starts taking the open shots without a minimum of hesitation!

If he shoots them freely and without overthinking we might use a lineup of him OG Randle Donte and JB like Warriors teams did with Dray, KD and Iggy in frontcourt

For the moment it seems that way. However, Bogs is the expiring contract the KNICKS will use to land the "big fish" they're going after. They basically replaced Fournier with Bogs, who will be a valuable contract and tradeable asset in a few months.

pretty remarkable to me that Brunson only needed to play 28 minutes to beat the Sixers

It's crazy how the play-in has affected the regular season, I think it's kind of rad. The Knicks are only 4 games out of the 2nd seed in the East but only 2 games ahead of falling into the play-in tournament.

Only 17 games to go! Still so many ways the season could go, it's exciting.

But that's exactly what Fournier was, a valuable contract.
So the Knicks gave up a valuable contract, a young 3/D prospect, and 2 second rounders for a valuable contract?

It was a bit depressing seeing Bogs and Burks struggle in garbage time.
They really struggle on being efficient scorers trying to create their own shots. So many turnovers and terrible shots.

The best bet is to sprinkle them in when Brunson or Randle are in the game to play off the ball and just be spot up shooters.
Still a terrible trade.

Bogdanovic will turn some heads in the playoffs. He’s for real.

Well, maybe a little more than Fournier was, and not a team cancer

Seeing the different players that have come to the Knicks this season I'm most impressed with Donte, OG and Precious they all look like they can contribute to winning but Bobo and Burks impact the game in ways that is just inconsistent at best, easily exposed weak link at worst.

The discipline of the core rotation players is impressive, they all have varying flaws sure, but they work hard and limit mistakes, so that is credit to the coach. Thibs is stubborn in his old way methods is the meme and he self aware leans into the character but this team rarely has two terrible games in a row.

Even though I kind of agree that Thibs feels like the guy before the guy, that other guy isn't guaranteed, the next coach could take a step back and the team is worse. He's not going anywhere this season and back next, too. After that when his coaching contract expires he may just move upstairs so to speak.

He has changed more than many admit and yet Thibs brings back everything Knicks fans loved about their old Knicks teams but the same fanbase still really does love to hate him for doing it and just being himself.

It's quite a bizarre relationship.

Looks like OG put his arm in a sling to take the pressure off the elbow and let it recover after the game...

Of course THIS is the game where Hart does not play 40 minutes, and misses his potential 20/20/10 game...

OG should not dunk until his elbow fully heals.
He is the most important Knick at this moment.
I think we can still move up to 2nd or 3rd seed.

Great bounce back win. Given the potential matchups awaiting us it almost seems like 6th place would be better than 4th or 5th. I can definitely see us beating Cleveland and/or Milwaukee with a healthy squad. Boston is at least a step above everyone else....

Give Bojan some time to adjust. He will contribute ---he is a really good offensive player and it'll show...

Plus Quentin Grimes was due an extension and the Knicks have some considerations.
