Watching Knicks vs Heat and damn…Tyler Hero is amazing.  For the Knicks Randle is so talented but disappears for long stretches.  Strange.  Everyone for the Knicks is pass to Randle and get out of the way.  Disjointed.  Still…the guy is amazingly good

There's a ton of guys out there. Maybe bring in a G-League guy or two on a 10 day.

Like who?  Kup made his move…which was awesome but we will see what the offseason brings.  Need a better coach doe

We have young players that are ignored.  Get someone who can coach

JB just got an extension at the beginning of the season. He's going nowhere soon unless he totally ticks off MJ and Mitch. Get over the idea of replacing him, MJ and Mitch like him.

As for players? Again, some guy(s) from the G league or someone like Teague or Exum unless they've signed elsewhere.

@Shocker @jayboogieman Deadline for buyouts and such is March first. Maybe Mitch and JB have their eye on someone and are waiting to see if they become available. Other than that I have no idea why we are still carrying an open roster spot with our depth this poor. Also great timing on sending Bouknight down to the G league when we only have 2 actual guards available on the roster. Wonder if it was some sort of punishment for the UCONN incident?
 

@Shocker What you saw with the Knicks is exactly why I said I don’t understand the Knicks hiring or retaining of Thibodeau. The offense runs entirely through Randle because he is the only “vet” player on their roster who gets significant minutes and Thibs doesn’t trust anyone else. Like I was saying in an earlier post, he’s a terrible coach for that teams current construction.

Maybe on both counts. I don't see another reason to keep the other spot open either. As for Bouknight, it's probably a combination of punishment and getting him playing time since JB would rather play Martin, who returned.

Still poor management on JBs part to not have an emergency guard available in case both LaMelo and Terry happened to go down. Guess we will just have to wait and see what happens on the first. Only have 2 more games this month.

I agree about not having a third string guard and said as much during the game. I guess he would have used Martin as the guard if push came to shove like he did when COVID had hit the team.

INJURY UPDATE: have added Cody Martin (low back tightness) to the injury report as doubtful and Jalen McDaniels has been downgraded to out for tonight's game against the Pistons.

and just like that, would love to have Bouknight available but we just had to send him down to the G league. Lamelo and Terry are the only guards available tonight.... wtf are we doing.
