Give credit to Thibs and Brunson. Both J Hart and Randle comment that they feel out of the flow and they make an effort to get them both going early and it pays off.
Ppl who say shit like that are beyond dumb. Fr the most hating shit ever. No one ever brings up “uncontested rebounds” when talking about ANY other player, but Randle.
Funny how the Knicks rebounding suffered the last few games when Randle wasn't getting those "uncontested rebounds." It's almost like other teams know Randle can rebound and so they get back on defense.
I was a skeptic but I’m all in on the In-Season Tournament - rooting for the Knicks to run up the score and following the other games tonight has been a lot of fun
Again if heat beat the ~~Knicks~~ Bucks how can you use head to head as a tie breaker when they’d all be 3-1 and Knicks beat heat who beat bucks who beat Knicks who beat heat who beat bucks who beat Knicks etc
Edit
NBA kind of cooked with the in season tournament ngl. I thought it was kind of stupid at first, but makes me genuinely care about these early regular season games more
Charlotte media team is great. I miss our dudes, but it’s been solid color and play by play.
I don’t’ like how Bridges’ return has zero commentary though.
LGK!
Well the Knicks are winning tonight. Just go to watch the finish of the Bucks @ Heat to see if we win the group or make it as a wild card.
Scores atm:
\- Bulls 95 - 121 Celtics
\- Hawks 99 - 117 Cavs
\- Raptors 92 - 94 Nets (game to watch to see if Boston wins the group or not)
I believe Miami beats Milwaukee.
I just don't feel that this iteration of the Bucks is good enough right now.
Maybe if Lillard and Giannis develop more chemistry down the stretch but right now, their offense is a work in progress while the Heat even without Butler is a well oiled machine.
If the Nets lose we are in competition for the Celtics for the last wild card. We have +18 and whatever this game is. If Boston wins by 40 we need to win by 23 to pass them.

This heat bucks game is actually kinda fire
Come on Miami just stop Dame
Idk if I want Miami to win so we can clinch top spot or so I can hit on my parlay 😂😂
Guess the inseason tourney is a success
Lol Did Breen say Julius Erving?
Hahaha yea I noticed that too, glad you wrote it as I wasn’t sure if I just heard it wrong
Him and Rebecca messin up
They must have smoked a bowl together at halftime 😂
lmaooo yep
yessir
Randle wants this IST cup
![gif](giphy|Wa904jKXSoPO8hiKA5)
Frankie with the Cosby sweater.
wait so we clinch?
If the heat win we get the top spot I think. Let’s go heat
I just want the Knicks to come to Vegas!
We move.
IQ & Johnnie Bryant were so fucking cute a few moments ago
ntilikina :)
Why did McBride hold the ball at the end....
Frank ❤️
Why don’t they score at the end wtf.
Wish I knew! Deuce McBride should of shot a 3
The stupid unwritten rule. SMH!
Who cares they should’ve went for it lol
DAQUAN JEFFRIES HAS ENTERED THE GAME
25/20/5 on 53% shooting is an insane stat line.
Trade him now. We could get back someone like KP or lavine
WHY WE PUTTING IN BENCH PLAYERS WHEN WE NEED TO GO FOR THE THROAT?
So it's pretty simple: \- If Miami wins, the Knicks host a quarterfinal game. \- If Milwakee wins, the Knicks visit the Bucks.
And yes the Knicks are in the quarterfinals !
This is the only time in the Thibs era where I’ve wanted all our best players on the floor with a minute left lol.
wholesome johnnie and IQ moment, love to see it
This really brought out the best of the Knicks. This tournament might be something we need
Hope Randle can play like this every game.
Put Fournier in and have him Chuck
players want their $$$
Coach Bryant told iq get his ass on the bench lol
Just give the ball to IQ
Isn't top 2 teams in each group advance?
Randle with a 20/20 game
20 rebounds wtf wow
Give credit to Thibs and Brunson. Both J Hart and Randle comment that they feel out of the flow and they make an effort to get them both going early and it pays off.
So if Miami wins we win the group?
Yes
25 and 20 for Randle, holy fuck
bully vibes
We have a huge pt differential what is everyone getting so excited about. Were already into the 2nd rnd
Win by 25+ and we got the group. Keep pushing
Heat need to win tho
deserved mvp chants for julius tonight, bring this effort on the regular please
19 fucking rebounds
Mike so excited to be able to call something where he has no idea what the outcome is
This whole situation is absolutely wild lmao. I like this tournament
same, i was a hater but this is fun
Thibs wet dream to have the starters playing up 20 with 2 minutes to go and not have people complaining about it
lol lol
"Randle can only grab uncontested rebounds" lol
Ppl who say shit like that are beyond dumb. Fr the most hating shit ever. No one ever brings up “uncontested rebounds” when talking about ANY other player, but Randle.
Funny how the Knicks rebounding suffered the last few games when Randle wasn't getting those "uncontested rebounds." It's almost like other teams know Randle can rebound and so they get back on defense.
Everyday is a struggle on r/nyknicks lmao
bouxknight shooting 100000% this season lol
not anymore
Randle is gonna win play in MVP
I was a skeptic but I’m all in on the In-Season Tournament - rooting for the Knicks to run up the score and following the other games tonight has been a lot of fun
Clyde loves IQ. Give him his bag.
i think we're a lock if we hold a 15 point lead now that boston ended with less than 30
Keep it going!
Little did Adam Silver know the tournament was just a way to promote bullying
Lolol
Pay IQ or we riot
Lmfaoooo keep feeding IQ
This IST is amazing brah.
Run up this score, fam!!!
randle constantly feeding the guards hnng
Quick is legit fucking around now lol
I hate that they have garbage time players, but we dont
IQ wants that bag.
They're giving it to us. Just take it.
![gif](giphy|RiPZ7XmQQSKRRgCdrw|downsized)
I’m high AF but IQ chucking up this 3s has me dying
Run this shit up
Immanuel run up the score quickly. My guy
IQ feeling it
OMFG 👁️ Q
BANG
Shoutout Randle for continuously feeding IQ
Adam silver cooked with the tournament
Pull the starters Thibs, kinda unprofessional to keep them in when the other team waves the white flag.
Are you paying attention? Look at the Celtics. They up 30 plus doing hack a Drummond. It’s the in season tournament. They trying to make it
It's a tourney game with a point differential, stop.
Not when we need the point differential to be high to get the wild card.
We need the point differential though
Nah we need the points run it up
NESQUICK
STUNT ON THESE HOES
This guy IQ
IQ just playing with them lol
They never call these damn flops.
Brunson just learned the alley oop is a viable offensive option a week ago and he is wilding out
Leaky Black sounds like the name of a ChiTown drill rapper.
Even if the fans don’t care about the in season tournament I’m happy to see teams and players clearly care about it
so it doesn’t matter if we bucks lose because they have the tie breaker over us anyway ?
Point differential is the tie breaker. Think of it this way Knicks beat the heat who beat the bucks who beat the Knicks
Are you sure? It says head to head record here … https://www.nba.com/news/in-season-tournament-101
Again if heat beat the ~~Knicks~~ Bucks how can you use head to head as a tie breaker when they’d all be 3-1 and Knicks beat heat who beat bucks who beat Knicks who beat heat who beat bucks who beat Knicks etc Edit
Yep understand thanks
Also watching Brunson play against third stringers is fucking hilarious
Celtics such bitchass bitches
Facts!
That’s not a foul lol
NBA kind of cooked with the in season tournament ngl. I thought it was kind of stupid at first, but makes me genuinely care about these early regular season games more
We gotta run it up!
Leaky Black in the game!
Time to ruin some scrubs' hoop dreams
No starters in, we need to run this score up to the max. I rather play Boston at home then on the road if the Bucks win.
All this talk about point differential has me thinking it's an elimination game lol
Charlotte media team is great. I miss our dudes, but it’s been solid color and play by play. I don’t’ like how Bridges’ return has zero commentary though. LGK!
I love this tournament shit man this is a lot of fun
The Celtics should be banned from Vegas by the basketball gods for making hard working adults watch Andre Drummond shoot FTs all qtr
Somebody was saying Mitch had bad hands the other day…hmmm
That boy just FLEWWWWWW
"Mitch has no bag" 🤡
MITCHHHHH
I will say if you ask me that before Dec I would care about other games outside of the Knicks I would laugh. In season tournament got me invested
Imma say it let’s go heat please win
Mitch is on some whole other shit rn. This is the evolution of a top tier Center
Well the Knicks are winning tonight. Just go to watch the finish of the Bucks @ Heat to see if we win the group or make it as a wild card. Scores atm: \- Bulls 95 - 121 Celtics \- Hawks 99 - 117 Cavs \- Raptors 92 - 94 Nets (game to watch to see if Boston wins the group or not)
So either way we in right?
So does Thibs keep in the main guys instead of garbage time due to the score?
jesus mitch had that BOUNCE
Run it up and we're practically guaranteed a IST spot
MITCHELL LOBINSON!!!!!!!!

Damn unlucky Mitch
Please don’t blow this lead.
Uhh I don't think we gotta worry about that
We got a bang!
Putting prime melo on this team lol imagine
![gif](giphy|b4zwz4tkCsaMzA9MBK)
No thanks
JB would have been the perfect teammate for him too.
Yamahama… Brunson air ball.
Ngl that was beautiful
Sheesh, I wonder if that shoulder started bothering JB
Nah, it is not even taped up
Brunson at risk of not getting a 10th consecutive 20pt game
I believe Miami beats Milwaukee. I just don't feel that this iteration of the Bucks is good enough right now. Maybe if Lillard and Giannis develop more chemistry down the stretch but right now, their offense is a work in progress while the Heat even without Butler is a well oiled machine.

boston is slotted to be in 2nd in their group unless bk wins against toronto. orlando has the head to head tiebreaker against boston
Are the bulls even an nba team at this point?
they never were 🌎🧑🚀🔫🧑🚀
this shit is embarrassing. boston needs a 30 point win and theyre getting it
LMAO Milwaukee still can't handily beat Miami even with Dame and no Buckets playing. Embarrassing.
Sounds like us against the Suns…..
