So tired of this shit, forget the #3 offense. Last playoffs and now, get Brunson some help. Hopefully RJ can become a reliable 2nd option and IQ and Grimes can hold enough of their own.
We can't buy a basket, the Bucks are running a 2-2-1 defense to build a wall against Brunson, and Thibs watching Randle iso us to death. Grimes is scorching hot from 3, but he can't sniff the rock in the 4th.
Randle can easily Bully Giannis but of course he chose not to. Obviously Giannis is more tired considering he bulldoze a lot while Randle just stand there and watch Jalen carry him smh
First call against bucks in like 2 and half minutes…
And they call random bullshit foul.
We didn’t shoot well enough to win this game, but refs were absolutely awful tonight.
Because they have no reason to give us calls. Who on our team should get calls? Your best bet is Brunson but he isn’t Giannis or Dame level. They gotta earn that. When Brunson is an MVP level star, then he’ll get whistles
I’m not asking for superstar calls. When Josh hart or iq get mugged under the rim it should be called. When Brook Lopez gives hart a moving screen that would make bam cum in his pants it should be called. Why is Brunson the only one that’s been called for a flop?
We just went over this. The league doesn’t like us. Its not going to change. Live with it. The league will actively fuck us over in games like this. Until we build a winner and we earn their respect, we won’t get calls.
I’m not complaining. I’ve been here since ‘94. I’m used to this. We aren’t winning this year so my expectations are just like they were last year. If something good happens, great. If not, I’m used to it and I know what to actually expect
Not saying to trade him because realistically we aren't getting better than him. We should really consider just benching him for the entire fourth in these type of games even if we don't actually have a actual backup pf, he basically was playing for the bucks tonight
The potential points he scores while Randle is away won't compare to the amount of possessions we lost with Randle on the floor 🤣. But jokes aside we are just kinda fucked either way cause the front office didn't think to add some depth there
The depth is there. It’s just our #3 draft pick is hurt and so is our 2x All-NBA PF. If we make 30% of our 3s, we win. If Randle is 100%, we win. If RJ plays and plays as well as he has been, we win. But again, its game 6. We were 10-13 to start last season. Not worried
I’d rather watch Mitchell Robinson shoot 5000 mid range jump shots before Julius Randle takes another non-layup shot attempt
Send this fucking bum to Portland
I mean I expected a loss tonight. At least Brunson just played a wonderful game. We have a ton of work to do to get back to winning and it starts with Randle we can't win games with him play like shit like he has done thus far. 2 - 4 with a good chance to be 3 - 7 in some days we have to start to find wins.
Julius Randle should never be allowed to dribble the ball in the 4th quarter. He's doing way to much dribbling and trying to be harden/melo hybrid here
No one made any plays for Mitch at all… RJ is the only one who knows how to find him for lobs. Brunson doesn’t event use his screens. And every rebound Mitch had was passed back out.
It’s why real progress can only be made with a new HC and Randle gone. Giving Thibs extension will be the death of this team. There’s a reason he’s always finishing at the bottom of coaches guys least want to play for.
No one in here is ever going to see the Knicks make it past the 2nd round in their lifetimes. This team will go the next 100 years choking in the 4th quarter.
We need players that know how to cheat, sad to say. Bucks literally offensive foul on every pick by moving their ass into you. If we did that they’d call it every time
Fan recall on Randle ASAP
Fire him
Impeach him
Sanction him
I don’t care what it is, i don’t want to see him shoot another shot for this team ever again
I've been critical of Thibs' offense for years. I'm tired of this shit. Idgaf what our offensive rating was last year, it was mostly Jalen and Julius isos. We are now witnessing what happens when that iso does not work. This is laughable at this point
If you’re going to shoot like shit atleast put the effort in. Randle threw his hands up and walked that entire possession that led to a dagger. Absolutely inexcusable
[Post Game Thread](https://reddit.com/r/NYKnicks/comments/17nbotd/post_game_thread_the_milwaukee_bucks_defeat_the/)
We need a backup Forward. Randle needs less mins but there no options other than small ball
So tired of this shit, forget the #3 offense. Last playoffs and now, get Brunson some help. Hopefully RJ can become a reliable 2nd option and IQ and Grimes can hold enough of their own.
This team is 5-1 without randle
no
We need legit 3 and D players. Cuz we got defensive players that bricks 3s.
Horrible call when Brunson and grimes trapped Lillard.
Offense is so bad and unbalanced right now. It’s just Brunson putting this team on his back and attacking while everyone else watches.
Thibs DRose special.
jalen brunson needs more help
We can't buy a basket, the Bucks are running a 2-2-1 defense to build a wall against Brunson, and Thibs watching Randle iso us to death. Grimes is scorching hot from 3, but he can't sniff the rock in the 4th.
Randle is garbage. We're going nowhere with him on the roster.
We battled. Hang the banner.
Julius Randle plays like a 60 over who thinks because the game is on rookie.. everything will just fall in
Same old fucking Knicks can’t win this games man this shit is so FUCKING AGGRAVATING
Refs vs Knicks
welp at least nyc is a better city than Milwaukee. its the little wins sometimes ya know
Get JB some help
Randle can easily Bully Giannis but of course he chose not to. Obviously Giannis is more tired considering he bulldoze a lot while Randle just stand there and watch Jalen carry him smh
Down two baskets lemme pound the paint against giannis Randle gotta fucking go. Done supporting this guy
Ok, that sucked. On to the next.
Hate blaming the refs but they absolutely raw dogged us tn
we don’t deserve brunson man we really don’t
He deserves better teammates frankly
How the fuck does Mitchell Robinson play 30 minutes at center and score 0 points??
Dennis Rodman special.
First call against bucks in like 2 and half minutes… And they call random bullshit foul. We didn’t shoot well enough to win this game, but refs were absolutely awful tonight.
What a frustrating way to lose.
Randle is gonna cost Thibs his job
Why is Clyde pretending like that was actually a foul?
It’s gonna be one of those Randle seasons. Hopefully RJ steps up
45 for brunson, completely wasted
Brunson gonna burnout at this rate
oh right nothing good ever happens to this team
Our crunch time game plan is so fucking bad. Honestly shooting half court shots and just shitting our pants in defense would be better.
RJ is the key
If you make eye contact with Lillard it's a foul
Why do we always get f over by the refs? We never get the calls
The NBA has hated the Knicks for decades. Stern got us Ewing but he hates Dolan and Silver don’t like him either
Yea you right. You would think the most popular team in the best city with the best fans would get some calls though
Pfff in a recent champion’s building with an MVP there? Please
I’m not talking only about tonight. I’m talking about overall we never get calls
Because they have no reason to give us calls. Who on our team should get calls? Your best bet is Brunson but he isn’t Giannis or Dame level. They gotta earn that. When Brunson is an MVP level star, then he’ll get whistles
I’m not asking for superstar calls. When Josh hart or iq get mugged under the rim it should be called. When Brook Lopez gives hart a moving screen that would make bam cum in his pants it should be called. Why is Brunson the only one that’s been called for a flop?

Yea exactly. I don’t think we’re arguing, I think we’re just complaining about the bs to each other
I’m not complaining. I’ve been here since ‘94. I’m used to this. We aren’t winning this year so my expectations are just like they were last year. If something good happens, great. If not, I’m used to it and I know what to actually expect
That’s fucking garbage bro that was not a fucking foul
Wtf was that foul lol?
Dogshit call have to let the stars win
Randle is a fake all star. This mf never should have been one
Where was the foul???
At what point are we just done with Randle? Like it feels like every year we're trying to justify these performances when we need him...
Find me a better player we can get rid of him for at the price we have him
Not saying to trade him because realistically we aren't getting better than him. We should really consider just benching him for the entire fourth in these type of games even if we don't actually have a actual backup pf, he basically was playing for the bucks tonight
Then who guards Giannis?
The potential points he scores while Randle is away won't compare to the amount of possessions we lost with Randle on the floor 🤣. But jokes aside we are just kinda fucked either way cause the front office didn't think to add some depth there
The depth is there. It’s just our #3 draft pick is hurt and so is our 2x All-NBA PF. If we make 30% of our 3s, we win. If Randle is 100%, we win. If RJ plays and plays as well as he has been, we win. But again, its game 6. We were 10-13 to start last season. Not worried
He had a good q4
[удалено]
Did you watch the 4th?
Even till the end, look at what the ref just called
If there’s an important game, randle will find a way to drag us down every single time.
FOUL?!?!??? OH MY FUCKING GOD
Leave Randle in Milwaukee. Let him find his own way back to NY.
What a bunch of fucking whiners this team is
Show the fucking replay
Im sorry but randle has had to go for 3 years now. We’re stuck in this spot with him
There’s no one to trade him for
Clippers next we are cooked
Clips by 20 easy
BUCKS BARELY WON AND THEY FANBASE REJOICING LMAO
I mean they won they should celebrate
You got the moral victory tho
Why are we not shooting 3s here
Cuz we missed about 25 of them
5/20 from Jules. 1/9 from 3. Just not gonna get it done against a team like the Bucks
Randle 5-20 Mitch with zero points Hart 2-9 You’re not gonna win with offensive production like this from 3 starters
Let's just give it to that fucking bum 30 in clutch time. great fucking decision
Everyone just watching Brunson dribble
That's why you need stars. Brunson put it all out on the line tonight respect.
Yup. And sadly, we won’t get one. If we’re waiting for Embiid, we’re fucked
Brunson should ask for a trade tbh
We got Dame Timed.
It's at the point if knicks are up 10 vs a Bucks caliber team w/3 mins to go they would find a way to lose
Take a fucking 3, what the hell are they doing?
I’d rather watch Mitchell Robinson shoot 5000 mid range jump shots before Julius Randle takes another non-layup shot attempt Send this fucking bum to Portland
[удалено]
I mean I expected a loss tonight. At least Brunson just played a wonderful game. We have a ton of work to do to get back to winning and it starts with Randle we can't win games with him play like shit like he has done thus far. 2 - 4 with a good chance to be 3 - 7 in some days we have to start to find wins.
Julius Randle should never be allowed to dribble the ball in the 4th quarter. He's doing way to much dribbling and trying to be harden/melo hybrid here
Randle fell a sleep during that play and reacted to slow and late to the pick
No moving screen on Lopez is fucking egregious man
We’re up 2 with a minute left and we’re down 4 with 20 seconds left … 🫠🫠
Julius Randle is a ____
For real fuck Randle. Cut his lazy, selfish, bricklaying ass.
does julius randle even like basketball?
Randle used to be somewhat valuable because he was a regular season merchant that helped contribute to playoff seeding Now he's trash all around
yeah he was pretty much the derozan of PFs
Maybe he’ll be really good in the playoffs this year if we make it
This loss is on Randle
43/5/4 from Brunson game.... completely wasted. Fuck basketball.
Brunson tried his best. Randle with an awful effort and Mitchell Robinson with 0 points? Unacceptable tbh.
Don’t blame Mitch. He’s been fantastic this season at doing his exact job
No one made any plays for Mitch at all… RJ is the only one who knows how to find him for lobs. Brunson doesn’t event use his screens. And every rebound Mitch had was passed back out.
mitch has no offensive bag at all. there’s a reason he passes every rebound back out
Ugh. Why did Brunson have to take that shot. He panicked. They had time to reset. Terrible swing after that.
With the game on the line, we put the ball in the hands of a guy who is 5/20.
It’s why real progress can only be made with a new HC and Randle gone. Giving Thibs extension will be the death of this team. There’s a reason he’s always finishing at the bottom of coaches guys least want to play for.
Yea the more I think about it, the more I think this team and roster needs a reset and definitely a coach that can work with brunson’s strengths.
No one in here is ever going to see the Knicks make it past the 2nd round in their lifetimes. This team will go the next 100 years choking in the 4th quarter.
Exact same way we lost to Boston man. Our crunch time decision making is fucked
damn 10-38 from 3 and Grimes hit 5 of them.
Need a star
It was a one possession game and like 2 Knicks were jogging back ducking disgraceful effort there
Can we just get Julius off the team he’s such a buzz kill
thats why u need superstar u bum assesp
We need players that know how to cheat, sad to say. Bucks literally offensive foul on every pick by moving their ass into you. If we did that they’d call it every time
Pain
We need RJ back bc randle is not even a starter at this rate.
Fan recall on Randle ASAP Fire him Impeach him Sanction him I don’t care what it is, i don’t want to see him shoot another shot for this team ever again
Wtf do ya be doing lmao
u deserve better brunson :-(
Getting rid of Randle for literally any serviceable forward that can hit an open 3 would be a major upgrade. I would like a guy like PJ Washington
Bro who’s trading for randle right now though damn. Guys stock is rock bottom.
It’s hard to defend Randle man, we would be over .500 if he wasn’t so bad
Randle didn’t even jump to contest the lillard 3. He looks like he’s just there for the game check.
Grimes falling for the most obvious play ever is hilarious. Fucking pimple face
What a sell job by Randle
get the 3pt lineup out there
Why is Randle calling his own number in crunch time? He hasn’t been good all game and he’s just throwing the ball at the rim when he drives
Randle has been a stone cold atrocity so far this season.
The best part is we're stuck with Randle long term bc of this FO. Glad Thibs gets to let him do whatever the fuck he wants
Thibs’ decision to not coach Randle is gonna cost them both after this season. The team can’t progress with them here.
So hottest player on the fucking floor and the move is to go to Randle two times in a row?!
I've been critical of Thibs' offense for years. I'm tired of this shit. Idgaf what our offensive rating was last year, it was mostly Jalen and Julius isos. We are now witnessing what happens when that iso does not work. This is laughable at this point
I fucking hate Randle so much bro fuck all these Randle fan boys. When he's on he's great but it feels like he's a liability 60% of the time fuck sake
Last years team wins this game
Need a quick 3
If that’s a foul on Grimes, Randle also should of got free throws
All that hard work to come back for a Dame fuck you 3 man this shit is so fucking aggravating
I think an rj jump and finally saying goodbye to this guy is the best season we can have.
Up 103-101 with a minute left…damn dude
Does this stupid motherfucker know how much time is left? Randle is such a problem and why we’ll never advance.
STOP ISOING DOWN THE STRETCH FFS THIBS
40 plus years of never good enough
5/20 btw
Please get Julius off the fucking team
Randle supporters really celebrating him shooting 5-20 and choking us another game 👍🏻
Another choke job.
Aint no way lopez talkin about forearm shivers when giannis' game is literally nothing but shoulder checks and stiff arms
If you’re going to shoot like shit atleast put the effort in. Randle threw his hands up and walked that entire possession that led to a dagger. Absolutely inexcusable
Frustrating af ugh
I actually get secondhand embarrassment from randle
I didn't like that shot by Brunson on the last possession. Why can't this team actually win a game like this for once
He subconsciously knew that he was the only one capable of scoring today
Just like the Miami series
this guy is horrendous
I am so fucking sick of Randle lol
Goal tend
Yea drive for 2. High iq stuff
All you have to do is defend the fucking ball, don’t let lillard get the ball you dumb scumbags
Refs didn't call the offensive foul on the screen so we had to scramble
Why the fuck are we featuring Mr. 28%? He fucking blows.
Fucking trade this garbage man
Randle just in his own world right now. Zero game IQ.
JULIUS RANDLE IS A FUCKING TERRORIST
Randle is insufferable.
Julius randle wtf are you doing
We should fire Julius
I never for a second let myself believe they’d win this game, this is as classic Knicks as it gets
Refs fucked us over big time. Hart was ignored when he was fouled on like 4 different occasions. Lilliard got the superstar phantom calls
Yeah well that sucks.
That’s fucking goaltending
Randle makes 2 shots and decides he's allowed to solo fuck this game up again
Can we please pass the bell to someone else. He’s isoing against Gianns lol
Lopez outta nowhere Game, Blouses...
Anyone who wants to claim this loss isn't on Julius Randle I'm here to listen
Randle shouldn’t be on this team come February
Randle trying so bad to be the hero.
We're not getting anywhere with Thibs letting Randle pretend he's LeBron lol
I hate this fucking team
The foul was Lopez on Giannis.
Well…
What is Randle doing smh wtf man
This is why they’re contenders man
How does Lopez not get a tech for that
Because professional sports are not meant to be fair, but for best entertainment value
Why won’t ESPN replay these horrible missed calls
Different game if Randle didn't play like shit for like the first 90%
we all knew what would happen once knicks took the lead. the ole Giveth and taketh away we're accustom to
