2025-26 Game Thread: Knicks @ Clippers

We all know how this goes. They have a shitty game, so the next game, they kick ass.

Sorry, Clippers, you’re the next game!

Let’s go, Knicks!

They still theoretically can win 58 games!

I can only watch the box score because &%$#ing Peacock.

But we do have a 22-10 rebounding advantage. Might explain ess-dog’s amazement.

We’re also winning on turnovers, 8-3. Of course that’s not a good thing…

We’re probably gonna lose this game, but guys, the Clips aren’t that good. The drop off from Kawhi is massive.

It’s been some time since an opponent scored 64 first half points against us. We were playing good defense recently. Look no further than that.

Every time I think this team turns a corner they just fall on their faces.

They almost fooled me, too, the past few weeks.

Tough to watch this team brick 3s and turn the ball over. At least Towns is shooting well, but I don’t like the way he limped off the court at halftime. That knee is not right.

In his Charles Barkley voice, “This team has no plan B if the 3s aren’t falling”.

The Clippers are not great besides Leonard but they are balanced and extremely well coached. We need to be at our best to beat them. At no point up to now (middle of this 3rd quarter) have the Knicks shown they can win this game.

The positive is that we held them to a 24-point quarter. To be honest, much of it is that they are not hitting at the frequency of the first half. They still shred our defense.

There is so much time left and it’s not much of a lead. They can totally still win this one.

We are not winning, Brian. Not tonight. We have not been able to put a string of stops together all night. When they need a basket, they get it, and more.

Get us the fuck out of LA. Terrible shooting and very dumb turnovers in both games. Back to back bad, frankly selfish games from Brunson after he seemed to accept a more facilitator role. And worthless Bridges games – his shot looks broken right now.

If Alvarado can’t cover the non Brunson minutes we’re in trouble

Yesterday we lost without being outcoached. It was on the players. Not tonight. Tonight, the Clips were shredding our defense most of the night and scoring easily while they were making it difficult for us on offense. If not for KAT and JB having good games, it would have been worse.

Brunson really did look awful at the end of the game, decision-making-wise.

I’m getting tired of this team. They are too emotionally draining and ugly to watch. It’s a talented but low basketball IQ team. The only players I feel I can root for at this point are OG, Deuce, Mitch and Diawara because of his upside.

100% with Strat here. They’re maddening. Capable of elation (see Christmas). But mainly just tremendously frustrating and draining. This team just doesn’t add up to the sum of its parts. They should be better. They should be a locomotive.
