"Death to the Pessimistic State of Mind" - Nas Voice: NYK '23 Pre-Season Thread

[Mr. Jack Napier]

It wasn’t bad…bro Embiid is near the rim to provide help defense and they are playing tough man to man… the Knicks don’t have anyone who can box out to keep Embiid from mauling them and he got the ball with 7 seconds.

Shooting the 3 was smart. Nobody wants to drive at that point.

No, you challenge the bearded sucker. Teams don’t do it enough. Make that cat play defense.

Once again Randle laying off his man in the pick & roll & standing in no man's land. How many times is Thibs gonna allow that

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Tobias did IQ dirty with that shoulder move

 

[Miggs]

Theres nothing you can do if theyre gonna gift Embiid 27 foul shots and let him freely travel with the ball...

I'd love to have seen what this kinda rotation would have looked like against weaker units. They've played two of the best teams in the East tough, but don't have firepower to win these match-ups and the schedule is brutal from here on out.

Tobias Contract does Philly Dirty everyday

 

[Ironman]

Embiid, Harden, refs, amd missing freethrows we stood no chance no big men either

 

[23Barrettcity]

Why are we playing burks?

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

Just too much talent from Philadelphia. There were talks that the Knicks were close to getting Cj McCollum they really should have pulled that trigger. Not having a number 3 playmaker has been a death nail for this team

Sixers are going to be so frustrating to watch come playoffs time.

Just need a bit more minutes from Cam and Obi, RJ keep attacking and I don’t care what our record is. Let’s get this draft pick and go get Zion in the off-season.

Harden throws his body into you every possession and you give him an opportunity to rest on the other end. It’s insane. Knicks don’t play smart bball. Talent isn’t the issue

thats part of the plan though. take a ton of freethrows. set defense. have harden on the weakest offensive player and have rotations to hide him.
our offense is so archaic outdated and garbage we could never take advantage of him. a better coach would put harden in actions and have sims and mitch as constant lob threats as the first action or secondary actions when defenses get broken down.

 

[KnickstapeCity]

Harden butt fukked us and he always does.

Sixers will BE frustrated come playoff time when Embiid in a series against Miami/Milwaukee isnt gifted foul shots for breathing on him....

Yes but if Embiid doesnt shoot 27 and Knicks make 7-8 more its a game....thats how much it impacts the game...
