the reality is different; it’s not that the Knicks are bad or even average. They are pretty good but what’s being missed is how exceptional the Thunder, Cavaliers, and Celtics are. When was the last time 2 teams had winning percentages over .825 this last in the season? Likely never.

Everyone acting like Luka won something. Now he is fat and stuck in LA. That franchise would need another pandemic bubble to win anything besides an “In Season Tournament”

the knicks need to add more depth in the off season they simply can’t matchup with the top teams in the east let alone the league.

maybe the knicks should explore trading Bridges and get a better upgrade idk whose going to take him to get what you want but it’s worth a shot to see what’s out there. i agree the knicks gave up way too much for a guy that’s not a superstar. he’s just a very good player all star caliber that’s not enough to beat the top teams.

As a Knicks fan I don’t see how this team can compete for a championship. Seems another disappointing year.

February 24, 2025 at 9:12 pm
Problem is Thibs always plays the starters up to around 35 minutes and the bench barely plays. Every teams bench outplays them gee I wonder why. There bench barely plays and gets points that’s how bad it is. This has done that in the Wolves and couple others. He needs to go. Idc about there record, it’s embarrassing to see this team that still can’t beat the top teams. 0-7 is such a joke and I wonder why there last 2 games on defense were washed

Knicks got this loyalty gimmick to Thibs. Coaches have accomplished more n got fired. The game passed him by yrs ago. He gotta go!
