This lost to the suns though it sucks is a lot more encouraging. The defense looked better. They were not perfect, but it looked a little bit better and the everybody knows the offense is gonna look bad without JB no surprise there. If we can keep on continuing this positive momentum on defense and get JB back we’ll be fine. Still a lot of things to fix but this game things looked a little better.
About the worst the Knicks have looked since 2022 at minimum, if not pre-Thibs. No heart, no effort, and something’s gotta change. A championship caliber team doesn’t EVER lose 8 of 10. Some core members are getting moved or Brown is getting fired early.
God damn….
Last playoffs were a fluke.This core is never gonna sniff the ECF again.
Team only has a net rating of +3 after trading 7 FRP in the 2024 offseason 🔥
The Knicks have been and will
Always be cursed
There might actually be an in season tournament curse.
Should have hung the banner
what the fuck bro. we’ve been waiting so long. this was supposed to be the team. im so revolted right now.
Its bad right now
This franchise isn’t serious.

I miss the metal bats era 😭
The crazy thing is that usually when ur team is playing bad it’s cause ur best players r bad.
But that’s not rly the case. Mikal, og, Kat, deuce, and Mitch all had solid games.
Smth intangible is off each game. Feels like other teams r so easily able to cause the Knicks pressure when the Knicks r on offense and the Knicks find it incredibly challenging to cause any pressure on defense.
Like Devin booker and Grayson Allen r causing our ball handlers real problems, while og and deuce are making a seemingly minimal impact(in reference to the actual driving/penetration of players) despite og and deuce both being well above avg defenders and Allen and booker being like avg at best.
Is it a problem w the speed of our guys w the ball in their hands? That could be the case tbh and may be why the Knicks found success against Boston because Tatum and brown aren’t the fastest guys w the ball in their hands while Hali is very quick and hence they struggled.
In general no one on this team is rly good at POA in quick guards and that makes for a huge disadvantage defensively, compounded by Kat at rim protector and lack of offensive creation on offense, unless team is locked in and rly hitting shots shit is a struggle
2-8
When was the last time the Knicks had a stretch that bad?
Team is cooked
Leon went all in on soft. Cashed it all in to be worse than mid.

Boston and Detroit also won tonight
2-8 in 2026 isn’t fun
This feels like watching the 2018 Knicks at this point
You guys still want Brown over Thibs?
Id like to give a shoutout to every podcaster, redditor and so forth that called for thibs firing
Some very bad losses but overall I still think we’ve kinda just been getting a little unlucky tbh
Sadly I’ve watched all of these games
This is not a good team

Midseason slump nothing to see here
Gotta shake up the team. Make some moves
