[Kiyaman]

The Knicks all bench unit lineup in the first quarter should be on the court the final 4 minutes of the quarter

 

[mafra]

Hey, RJ… why you going 1 on 4 to end the quarter? IQ is wide open…. Pass the ball.

 

[Kiyaman]

Flop - Flop
RJ being RJ
The Sims & Obi frontcourt duo had total control of the paint

 

[Kiyaman]

HalfTime .. Knicks 55 - Nuggets 54

 

[mafra]

Hey, Thibs… RJ still sick and is shooting a miserable 2-12 or something. More OBI plz! Or, tank and you’ll lose tonight. Haven’t won in DEN since 2006

 

[Kiyaman]

Barrett hitting 1-4 on layups .. why is he the most minute played player tonite ???

 

[mafra]

RJ is also sick. He’s 0-8 from downtown. Knicks should be up 20… but Thibbs has completely lost his mind. I’m done with Thibbs. They lose to this lineup tonight then dolan needs to clean house. This is a disgrace. Why am I even watching? I’m the idiot. I want to pluck my eyes out.

 

[mafra]

28 seconds left in 3rd… IQ holds ball until 5 seconds left on shit clock then dribbles around and never shoots or passes… shot clock buzzes. Turnover. I’ve never seen that. Then DEN drains a3 at buzzer. Incredible.

 

[mafra]

It’s unwatchable. 88-80 with 11 to go and I’m turning this off.

 

[rady]

Randle doing everything right now, Knicks down 98-97 and Brunson has 2 free throws

 

[mafra]

22-10 run… 91-88 NYK. Randle taking over.

 

[rady]

2 incredible interceptions by Randle, the Knicks lead 101-98!! 2:37 left, timeout Nuggets

 

[mafra]

Knicks go up 5 but allow a 3 point play. 103-101 and Obi takes a wide open 3…. Brick off backboard that is nowhere near the rim. Den toes game. Final minute. I can’t emphasize enough how awful a shot Obi missed…

 

[rady]

Nuggets tie it after the Knicks led by 5. 103-103. One minute left

 

[rady]

I can’t emphasize enough how awful a shot Obi missed…

That was a terrible shot. Now Randle needs to make the frees

 

[mafra]

Randle fights and saves game with OFF rebound. Makes a Ft to give team lead. Jericho locks down Murray! JB sinks 2… Knicks up 3 with 10 seconds. Foul?

 

[rady]

10 seconds left, Nuggets called timeout. Knicks up 106-103 after a couple of free throws made by Brunson

 

[Kiyaman]

Randle dont miss ant FT down the stretch .. he did.
Trade Randle LOL
