Fuck the refs
So close
That was a 3 🤷‍♂️
That tech on Oubre was the dumbest play Kelly had all game
SOMEBODY POST THE PJ 2/3 REPLAY ANGLES
my stream cut out
I’m sure Clifford has a reason but Nick would’ve helped rebounding at the end there.
Pain. Pain Pain Pain.
FUCK THE KNICKS AND THE REFS
Man, I blame Hayward. He was absolutely dreadful down the stretch.
Fuck Pussy Juice and his big toes
that was damn near the closest game ever
Tough loss. We should have won that game. Brunson is a killer.
At least we know the knicks aren’t very good
Look, if we can almost win that with no LaMelo, no Terry, no Martin… we may be alright.
Wish Clifford had gone with the bench more, our starters weren’t great and really struggled in overtime.
This team keeps surprising me how well they compete. Shame about the result but damn good effort
We win that if we have Terry
Can’t wait for full strength Hornets
In hindsight, do we think that Jalen should’ve taken that 3 instead of driving and getting blocked by Mitchell Robinson?
Hope I never have to hear that kid behind Eric again
I’ll take that. Yes the ending sucks, but we take a team to OT when we are missing a huge part of our offense to injury.
Hell of a fight though… Clif has these boys playing hard af…
I gotta say, all bs aside that was a good fucking game. Our season may not be as fucked as we thought it was
Refs were trash, with lamelo and terry it’s a dub..we could be in for a fun season
Couldn’t watch the game… But Maledon is good?
7 players in double figures without our 2 main guys?! Good shit
But we still should’ve stolen this one damn!
The last two minutes in regulation were brutal. Can’t blow a 5 point lead and then when you somehow get a chance to win it in regulation everyone’s scared to shoot and it ends in a Hayward runner over Robinson. Nonetheless pretty impressed with the team considering who we are missing
Tough loss. Brunson is an incredibly crafty, efficient player and makes a lot of difficult shots. We ran out of steam towards the end.
Every fucking game it seems like the refs tell us to go fuck ourselves.
I mean, the knicks are a good team, we looked lost on a lot of the possessions down the stretch when Dennis didn’t have the ball. We played some pretty bad defense, especially in the paint. We got our rebounded badly. Still took them to overtime without one of our best on ball defenders, one of our best and most consistent scorers, and our star player.
Clifford made some pretty poor substitution choices but he has this team working on both ends. I really loved what I have seen coaching wise in that aspect. Now if Richards can actually get some more minutes that would be great.

What do you guys think
Team played hard and Cliff gets a lot of credit for that. But it sucks that Clifford 1.0 had to make an appearance at the end. The unnecessary timeout, the repeated inability to draw up a play, and the subpar close-out lineup were the same mistakes he made last stint. I feel he out-coached Thibs for 47:45.
We did good but I’m bummed out. Imma go laugh at the Lakers
Tough outcome but this team is not the bottom feeder they were expected to be. They took the media darling Knicks to OT at MSG without Melo and Terry
#### #FREENICKRICHARDS
Team showed some good grit tonight. Cliff has them playing hard.
I felt like DSJ was holding back there at the end, trying too hard to be a team player. He was penetrating with ease on Brunson and finding dropoffs and kickouts.
Maybe it was cliff trying to force it to Hayward, who was of course ice cold. Wish we wouldn’t have taken that timeout at the e d, but I get it’s a new team.
Jalen Brunson is a dog. I hate him. Damn near every bucket he scored was a tough bucket. DSJ played good defense all night just for dude to make all the contested shots
Plumlee and Hayward are so bad man….
