Wsup Rady .. Thanks for the Game Thread our 7 man rotation chased after the young Rockets lead for 48 min in our previous game. Are the Atlanta Hawks hoping the Knicks play a 7 man rotation in Atlanta tonight?

We have a nice rookie playmaker PG in Kolec, why didn't we work on a 2nd unit bench lineup in the preseason games having Kolec and Deuce McBride as our bench tandem backcourt running the offense?
How many games will it take for the Knicks $150M starter lineup to jell on the same-page?

In our previous game, Deuce McBride forgot he had PG skills to pass the ball and became a shoot-first guard to shoot 0-9 from the FG having 2 assist in 26 minutes. Not Good!
 
I'm watching Sims, and all the silly passes we throw to Sims when we get locked up by the defense, and Tibbs expect for Sims to do a miracle and catch these crazy passes. Tibbs take Sims out the game after 3 min.
 
End of First Quarter .. Knicks 22 - Hawks 26
Knicks 7 player rotation in qtr.
Hawks 9 player rotation in qtr.
 
Kolec! Kolec! Kolec! And Deuce & Hart got ball movement down pack at the start of the 2nd qtr.
Wasn't these 3 players suppose to be leading the bench lineup 42-44 Hawks.
 
We finally got the lead on KAT's and one slash layup, plus a 3 to give the Knicks a 50-44 Lead.
Why did we take Kolec out of the game, Brunson played all of the first quarter
 
Half Time .. Knicks 61 - Hawks 65
Knicks 8 man rotation vs Hawks 9 man rotation


Well, Knicks had the lead for 3 min in the first half vs (3-5) Hawks.
Rookie Kolec received 7 min hit two 3's for 6 pts, and defended Daniels well
Deuce McBride plays a better all-around game having Kolec & Hart in the lineup.
I'm not happy about Jericho Sims 5 min of playing time in first half

KAT 20 pts, and 9 rebounds in 19 mins
Brunson 10 pts, 3 ast
Deuce 8 pts, 5 ast
 
KAT vs Cappella been leaning towards Hawks.
Brunson's below the rim pass to Sims for a alley-oop dunk when Sims been giving Brunson good screens all game is bad. Sims in the game got the score tied at 87 .... 30 second remain in 3rd qtr.
 
End of 3rd Quarter .. Knicks 89 - Hawks 89
Deuce Mcbride did give the Knicks its 2nd lead in the game from the FT
Sims received 5 straight min to help Knicks regain the lead.

KAT 24-10
Brunson 17-2
OG 13 pts
Hart 10 pts
 
The Game was tied the majority of the 4th quarter, whomever want the win have to step-up in crunch-time.
KAT vs Cappella
Brunson vs Young
Tibbs vs Quin Snyder

The Hawks 6.8 rookie Zaccharie Risacher (2024 #1 draft pick) tonight had ..
33 pts, 7 reb, 3 ast, 3 steals, and 2 block-shots.
 
All I could say, Sims & Kolec received playing time in all 4 quarters of the game".
Sims received 10 minutes tonight.
Kolec received 9 minutes tonight.
Jericho Sims playing time tonight is what Sims been receiving for 3 straight Knicks seasons under HC Tibbs, in 25 to 30 games each season. Which is bad and terrible coaching/substitution for the NBA growth of any young potential player.

I fail to understand how you see Sims as a good player.... Thibs is giving him the playing time and he is trash..... he is doing nothing.... looks always lost and scared.....
 
Does Sims have a jumper??
Has anyone saw him taking a jumper during a game??
I think (not 100%) I saw Sims driving to the basket on a couple occasions. He looked quick and decent putting the ball on the floor.
Preseason games and garbage time are the perfect time to find these things out.
Does Sims seem like he is getting Big man coaching??
Anyone see a coach calling Sims over between plays or free throws??
Anyone see a coach getting in Sims face after being sub out??
 
There ATL front court shot about 80% from the floor.
This shows that Brunson can’t defend someone about the same size as him. The front is being beat a the back is about the same. Hart and OG were outscored by who they were defending.

We never seen Sims in a steady lineup, we never seen Sims receive consistent playing time.
If Sims make one mistake on the court, or is out of position on defense Tibbs pull Sims out the game.
Under HC Tibbs, Sims average 40 games a season, and 13 minute of playing time in each game, and 1 shot attempt per game for the past 3 seasons as a Knicks.
The reason why KAT's is playing the center position, is because Mitch Robinson is not coming back to be a part of HC Tibbs poor big-man coaching.
Hartenstein said F the Knicks.
Randle said F the Knicks
Obi Toppin said F the Knicks.
OG said pay me double my worth.

The Knicks starter-5 lineup are worth $150M this season, and in the 7 games the Knicks played the Knicks offense was only a threat to one team. The Detroit Pistons.
If Mitch was coming back, then KAT would be at the 4 spot, plus Sims & Hukporti both would be enjoying playing time backing each other up as the Knicks center in all 7 games.
Today's Knicks are the 2017-18 Minnesota TimberWolves LOL

As for Jericho Sims, the Knicks poor coaching staff are CLUELESS on how to coach a Big-Man in Tibbs small-ball Iso offense. As a player, every big man teammate I played with demanded the ball on offense.
Mitch Robinson average 4 shot attempts per game as a Knicks for 6 seasons.
Hartenstein average 4 shot attempts per game as a Knicks for 2 seasons.
Jericho Sims average 2 shot attempts per game as a Knicks for 3 seasons.
Last night, the Atlanta Hawks center Capela shot 8-8 from FG, and have average 8 shot attempts per game for 9 seasons on inside scoring from lob passes from his teammates.
In the conclusion the Knicks players are not forced by the coach to pass the ball to the center, even on a back door play. And fans wonder why Mitch Robinson stay injured.

All the players earned their time in the same circumstances, Hukporti looked solid and much better in a much smaller playing time, you don't need to have 30 minutes to show you are good. Unless your rookie is the top 5 pick, you don't give him time on the floor till he earn it.
Hartenstein shined in NY under Thibs which led him to get the big contract, nobody knew who is him before he played for the Knicks under Thibs
Randle was traded, he didn't ask to be traded.
Obi is nobody, like the rest of nobodys we keep brining up in this forum (Nilikina, Knox....etc.)

There is no WE in keep bringing up Frank and Knox.
IT JUST ME DRAGON…. I’m one that wants to have a championship… and believe they were the makings of that championship. How about KP and Kornet they were part of an F.O. organization that understood how to win and knew talent.
See Dragon if none of those players didn’t win a championship then you would be correct. Where is the championship from the people who got rid of all Phil players? There isn’t one and I hope all are gone out of the organization.
I have tried RESPECTFULLY to get you to understand the nature of the beast you are dealing with in today’s NBA organization.
You have let over 5 Years go by trying to prop up failures.
1. Not knowing how to win a championship.
2. Not knowing talent.
3. Not having a system setup to identify talent in High School… that right and follow them.
These are things YOU and those like you never question… Never said a word… and if you did your voice soon went silent.
4. Not grooming your talent on there success( Knox averaged over 12 points his rookie year… you build off that not bench him).
**Why didn’t they DRAGON??
Those of us that sounded the alarm about Perry, Mills and Craig Robinson went unheard and ignored. All of you thought they were smarter than the man that win the most CHAMPIONSHIPS.
We(meaning me and you) could have won a championship if Phil and his players had stayed. But those NOBODIES were discarded.
And you and I still have no championship!! Could those nobodies have done BETTER??
They certainly couldn’t have done worse, lol.
