What's new?


No Aldridge, no Simmons, no Curry, and no Kyrie but oh that got damn Slim Reaper. 

Can we all be honest about the Knicks coach once and for all. For his entire career when he is minus Derrick Rose, he is no better than a police athletic league coach.

Coach Thibodeau mind-boggling substitutions cost this team as many games as Randle handling the ball late in the game.

The fact that this guy has not developed for an entire season one point guard to handle the ball later in the fourth quarter is just criminal.

This guy has had the entire season of watching Julius Randle single handedly turning balls over in the fourth quarter leading to losses and yet he does the same dumb thing putting the ball in his Randle's hands during crunch time.

The only thing better than watching the Knicks lose is watching Knicks fans YouTube post and pregame videos. The world these guys are living in for the most part is pure comedy.

If they aren't saying ridiculous things like the Nets are a bigger mess than the Knicks, they are making outrageous predictions about winning as if they don't know the Knicks record.

There is not much else to say to Knicks fans other than you want no part of the playoffs, finish tanking and hope for point guard help in the draft. 

Oh, and to the douchebag hosts at WFAN that snubbed the Nets on last Friday's morning show your disgusting lowlife character is a direct reflection of your team and why you will not see the Knicks win a championship in your lifetimes.

The Nets are the class of New York City, and the Knicks are light years away from competing for anything. What's new?

Julius Randle, you are a lummox.


In the third quarter of last night's game with the Phoenix Suns the Knicks were up by 10 points and rolling. Looking as if they might pick up the rare road victory against a shorthanded but still an exceptionally good team.

But no.

Instead of being the levelheaded veteran leader of the Knicks Julius Randle decided to play the role of punk and gave Cam Johnson of the Phoenix Suns a shot to the ribs late in the third quarter.

The blow was so hard that it not only knocked the wind out of Johnson it also ignited some pushing and shoving which got Randle his second technical of the night and an ejection from the game.

Cam Johnson was the bear he decided to poke on the Suns, and it was the wrong dude.

Cam Johnson went on to finish the game with 38 points, 24 points scored in the fourth quarter including the buzzer beater game winning shot mostly from his career high of nine three pointers which also tied a Suns franchise record.

Julius Randle, the gift that keeps on giving. Thanks a lot Julius, I thoroughly enjoyed watching your team be left shorthanded and destroyed in the fourth quarter because you are a lummox.

Randle's basketball IQ has to be borderline retarded. If this guy doesn't play with a crack the whip type of point guard and a coach that doesn't excuse his boorish behavior, he will never amount to being a championship caliber player.

Between the Knicks tanking and Randle imploding I, as a Nets fan, am quite enjoying the end of this season. 

Knicks lose again, Suns 115 - Knicks 114.

Are the Knicks tanking?


Today, the Knicks starting point guard, Alec Burks, had as many assists as I did. Zero.

Again, in the fourth quarter the Knicks fell apart because there was no one running the ship. I was hoping that Raymond Felton would run out of the stands in his t-shirt, gut and all.

At least Raymond would demand that players are in position and running the sets that the coach knows give the team the best chance to win.

Despite being under powered facing a team with Joel Embiid and James Harden the Knicks kept the game close for three quarters.

But hasn't that been the memo of this team all season?

They have to lead the league in close but no cigar games in the NBA this season.

When will this coach learn that in the fourth quarter Julius Randle is reckless at handling the ball and inefficient from the field?

RJ Barrett was not accurate from the three-point line, but the fourth quarter would be a perfect time to run a two-man game with RJ and a solid point for easy buckets at the rim and mid-range shots.

Julius Randle should be a threat in the paint in the fourth quarter even if it means playing him at center if it forces him to get his rear end in the paint and not thinking about beating guys off the dribble or shooting terrible jump shots.

I mean for goodness' sake the Knicks can't bring up Jordan Allen or Kenneth Savage from the G league to give them a look? Either one would be better than Alec Burks who started at point guard this afternoon and had zero assists. 

Yes, it has gotten that bad with Kemba gone and D Rose injured. 

Are the Knicks tanking? I have a feeling they are. 

If tanking will get them a point guard high in the next draft and a good chance for the morbidly obese Zion Williamson, then this might be the best strategic move they made all season.

Knicks lose again, Sixers 125 - Knicks 109.
