IMO this was definitely thibs coaching 100% his decisions. No managing FO needs, analytic profiles, or egos. He went all in on defense, and for a night it worked. We are in such a better place than 3 years ago. NO to tanking. Getting the 1st pick is an impossible needle to thread. NO to waiting on a trade for a would be star - that rarely works out either. Stars are randomly found all over the draft board. Keep trying to win until we walk into a game changer.

Judging by Twitter and all the Hives, you can see many unhappy Knick’s fans combine a win into a tragedy. I just commented on this yesterday’s news letter. I prefer defense over offense any day. This game was a perfect example. I’ve never been happier with a win. Bench all the players who don’t pickup 90 feet on each play. Make RJ come off the bench, he’s still too young to give up on, and make him lose weight. I’m a league bowler. , no comparison to Basketball, except sometimes I roll a perfect Strike Ball, sometimes I roll a ball that isn’t that good but get a strike, they both look good on the scoreboard. Same in basketball , give me a win where every Knick plays perfectly or an ugly win like last night. They both look the same where it counts. I think with the talent we have we better count on winning ugly. Oh and I would take dogs like Brunson, Quickely,, Grimes and Robinson over all the other Prima Donna’s on the team. I can’t think of an uglier coach than Tom Thibodeau either.
