Official Game Thread: Knicks "at" Hawks

[Carmine]

These refs man...

[NBASupes]

Lol no travel call

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Nate is killing me.

Huerter and Gallo are switching every time, instead of telling Huerter to fight through the damn screen and stay on his man.

No defense in the game with Okongwu out.

Collins is a non-factor trying to play the 5 . . . because he's too small.

[hawkman]

That may be the game right there. Bad officiating.

[GameTime]

Team is bad folks

He's always been too small for Randle.

Coaching is bad too.

What happened to our spamming pick n rolls?

[aali34]

This season is a wash. Travis is right to have everyone available except Trae. OO and Dre need to stay though.

We've taken a big step back, but we can still move forward. 

[Q45T]

f*** this I’ve seen enough… starters come back in the game then the Knicks’ lead balloons.

Nate needs to go. He is a defensive coach with the worst defense in the NBA. No offensive scheme to speak of. Makes me miss Woody.

Anyone who can play defense minus Trae is unavailable.

Capela is not in the game and Trae doesn't like JC PnR because he slips screens. Like I said, Trae uses Capela screens to create his own offense

[TheNorthCydeRises]

The other benefit of playing big, is that if the Knicks do try to run a switch, they have to do between Hunter and Gallo, or Hunter and Okongwu, instead of Huerter being the one that is picked on.

They play zone or trap Trae and noone else can make a play.

Our shooters are inconsistent and noone likes attacking the basket other than Trae. That's the only way to beat a zone aside from talented one on one play.

I would disagree but he could have left Okongwu in the game instead of bringing back JC who just isn't a fit against the Knicks.

[Peoriabird]

Young another -16

[NBASupes]

JC is almost always really bad against the Knicks hence why we haven't been the Knicks in ages during the RS.
