And nothing is gonna change. This is who they are.
January 2026 Knicks fucking suck. Bring me back January 2024
I imagine on a “since New Year’s Eve” graphic, we’re in the bottom 5 in about everything. It’s been a ROUGH go man..
The Mike Brown era…zero defense. Utah is blatantly tanking and that’s the only team worse
I’m sick. It’s really over. How do they pull themselves out of this?
In january
When we hired Mike brown most of us said this would Happen – he cannot coach defense at all and never has shown otherwise
It’s because Ben stiller said we’re going to the playoffs at the NBA cup halftime. You can’t have celebrities praising your team it’s extremely bad luck
Yeah this is what i dont understand. I get that this is the regular season, but still a deviation from our core identity.
We locked up Tatum and Brown in the playoffs, handled Cade and Duren, and made the series competitive against Indiana. A key reason for the ECF run last season was our defensive versatility.
If that cannot be replicated then we are in trouble.
Oooooof
People keep saying it’s the roster that’s the problem – but if that’s the case why is our fourth quarter defense some of the best in the league? You seem them turn it on every now and then – they’re capable. Its an effort thing
