This time last year we were talking about how trash Mikals defense was. So glad we have been seeing peak Mikal since the playoffs.

TheTonyDose | Knicks

It also helps a lot that he plays a lot with deuce to have chasing small guards instead. Mikal has been way better at guarding wing types instead of the quick guards.

Mikal with a clinic on Ingram with OG out. He’s 3rd in steals and top 15 in blocks. If he started last season this way there would never have been any noise

Training_Onion6685 | NBA

10 | 3 hours ago

for sure this is the guy Knicks fans thought they were getting last year

very strange, basically until the playoffs last year it seemed like Mikal had just lost a step

then of course Boston series heroics and beast mode and he’s just been at that level all year

VanGrants | Knicks

now we just need KAT to be the player we thought we were getting

Training_Onion6685 | NBA

4 | 2 hours ago

KAT was that and more under Thibs

Browns system change definitely hardest on KAT so far

seems to be slowly adjusting

just like with Mikal last year, there’s a consistent body of work that came before these slumps to assume it will come around to the mean

VanGrants | Knicks

-10 | 2 hours ago

KAT is not that guy.

Training_Onion6685 | NBA

5 | 2 hours ago

you said ‘the player you thought you were getting’ ….

KAT was easily the player last year that every smart NBA or Knicks fan thought the team would get and a bit more. he practically had a career year.

changing the goalpost to ‘that guy’ I mean no he’s not a Jokic or Giannis or SGA MVP candidate but what are you saying. nobody thinks he’s that.

that’s why you have Brunson.

TheKnicksMakeMeDrink | Knicks

33 | 3 hours ago

Tyler Kolek should not leave the rotation again after these last few games

The stats aren’t eye catching, he doesn’t light anyone up, but just having a solid ball handler & real point guard to fill the 12-14 non-Brunson minutes is so fucking nice, dude. We haven’t had that yet in the Brunson Era, and it’s really a huge difference to anyone who watches the games.

printerpaperwaste

13 | 3 hours ago

This was probably his worst game of the last few, IQ was cooking him, but ball handler wise he was doing pretty good getting KAT out of that slump. His vision and passing is legit insane.

TheKnicksMakeMeDrink | Knicks

8 | 3 hours ago

Yeah he’s never going to be even a league average defender but we don’t need him to be

Just move the ball and get everyone going

printerpaperwaste

1 | 3 hours ago

He’s been slightly below league average the last few games which is more than what was expected and all you can hope for. Just don’t be a liability.

ben1204 | Knicks

He just needs to get like a middy or something going

TheKnicksMakeMeDrink | Knicks

He’s been working on the Brunson wrong foot wrong hand layup (lefty layup from right side) and it’s starting to fall

bbank8744 | Knicks

Back to backs suck - looking forward to the cup game feels like this could be a fun matchup. Hope we get to see it with OG / RJ and Poeltl all playing. Murray Boyles seems legit.

If they closed out the Hornets like they should have it was the right call.

Fakest comeback of all fake comebacks

Jwarrior521 | Raptors

9 | 3 hours ago

The comeback was real, we got within 3 points until Darko put in the BI + bench lineup who immediately gave up a 16-1 run.

peanut-britle-latte | Knicks

11 | 3 hours ago

Felt a bit like a schedule win, Raptors showed up dead in the first Q and didn’t seem to have the legs for threes. But fuck it, I’ll take it.

Fans were raging against KAT in the Knicks sub but he ends up with an efficient 22 & 8 on 8-15.

withdensemilk

Maybe small sample size does exist Toronto

HokageEzio | Knicks

7 | 3 hours ago

Scottie put in work on KAT on defense, but Knicks just had too much talent for them to keep up

Jwarrior521 | Raptors

11 | 3 hours ago

Issue is Scottie shouldn’t have to be the main defender on KAT on every possession lol the Raps look lost without Poeltl playing. We are 3-3 without him and 11-4 with him.

schoolhater12 | Raptors

I mean Mikal shut BI down completely. Lead to so many turnovers, stops, and easy buckets for the Knicks

Jwarrior521 | Raptors

2 straight days of Brandon Ingram terroristic basketball.

Also, why did we choose to rest Poeltl for the knicks game and not the Hornets… They have KAT and Mitchell Robinson yet we had to play the whole game with Scottie and Mamu at the 5.

mMounirM | Raptors

5 | 3 hours ago

cause this was a scheduled loss.

Raptors were supposed to win yesterday but choked the game away.

Jwarrior521 | Raptors

1 | 3 hours ago

This game was more than winnable if anybody but Scottie and Quick actually showed up

mMounirM | Raptors

1 | 3 hours ago

Raptors played a OT game the night before and had to travel. they were gonna run out of gas in the 2nd half even if other players showed up. This happens all the time.

schoolhater12 | Raptors

4 | 3 hours ago

genuinely awful on both ends. The thing is his stat line looks okay because he hit 2 threes in the 4th. I think for the team to get better as a whole, you need to get BI to buy in on the kind of basketball Darko wants to play. IQ after a terrible start is starting to look great, RJ has been playing fast, Scottie is the heart of the team. BI has had some great games but he is the odd man out

Jwarrior521 | Raptors

1 | 3 hours ago

The last 2 games he’s just tunnel visioned and demanded the ball at the top of the key to just do nothing but try and iso then either throw up a brick, turn the ball over, or make a grenade pass to a teammate with a couple seconds left on the shot clock. Idk why we are having him run the offense when Scottie/Quickley are just better at it. He is a play finisher not a playmaker.

schoolhater12 | Raptors

1 | 3 hours ago

Kevin freaking Durant bought in to the warriors system. I sure hope to god BI doesn’t believe that he is above the system. Yesterday’s loss was 90% on him. I hope RJ coming back helps rejuvenate the team. This was a scheduled loss either way but the way the Raptors played didn’t spark any joy

heysuess

1 | 2 hours ago

Durant did not buy in to the warriors. He played his standard ISO game while the warriors played team basketball around him. There’s a pretty infamous moment in the 2018 playoffs where Kerr is trying to get him to play team ball and Durant is just blatantly ignoring him.

OverallMistake8198 | Raptors

4 | 3 hours ago

Ingram dropping an egg, no starting C & SG available on the 2nd night of a back to back.

Really strange decision to not play Poeltl tonight & have him sit yesterday but whatever, this Knicks team is good.

Needed more from everyone not named Scottie & IQ to have a shot at winning this.

EarthWarping | NBA

4 | 3 hours ago

They clearly are lacking depth at C and have a not reliable bench

STN_MTN | Raptors

1 | 28 minutes ago

We haven’t had center depth since Serge Ibaka was on the team

Training_Onion6685 | NBA

2 | 3 hours ago

Mikal went ballistic Boston playoff series defense mode on Brandon tonight

that’s tough to deal with on 2nd leg of B2B on the road no less

Poeltl call has to be based on considering the Hornets game a lock if he plays so win the one you can for sure, with 2nd leg being hard anyway and Knicks being favorites anyway.

other angle is they wanted to preserve Poeltl out of strategy for the upcoming NBA Cup game, have a new look for NY.

OverallMistake8198 | Raptors

1 | 2 hours ago

Understand all of that but we should be trying to see how we stack up against other players off teams.

RJ being there makes Mikal have to work extra because of how proficient RJ is at cutting & being a 2nd man for BI to play off out of a double. With no RJ the cutting is worse & our movement is more static.

It’s all just compounding issues & as long as we win in the cup i really won’t care in the long run but i’d rather we have tried to win this game as opposed to the Hornets game because NY are a better squad & you’re against them down 2 as opposed to down 1 starter.

bbank8744 | Knicks

Might wind up having OG back for the cup game too. Would be good to see both squads fully healthy (and no b2bs) so we can learn some more about the matchup.
