Dudes are going to say anything to get an edge and fukk with the opposing team. This wasn’t a soft team, we were a fighting team who played well from behind. If by “soft” you mean our defense wasn’t that good then sure that’s more of a skill issue to me. As far as I see it most people would break down if they lost several family members to COVID like KAT did who still played through it and Brunson is hands down one of the mentally toughest players in the league.

Who the fukk made Malik Beasley clown ass the arbiter of toughness?

Most NBA fans labeled OKC soft, corny, p*ssy, free throw merchants, hacks, beat injured teams. Still the champions.

In practice labels like “dogs”, “tough”, “soft” are nothing but cliches that mean very little. New Yorkers thinking themselves as “tough guys” or “blue collar” and always living in the lore of the 90’s Knicks throw this nonsense label around to make themselves feel better or some shyt.

The team needs a talent infusion on the bench to scoff at Ayton is hilarious.
Everyone who knew ball was saying OKC was probably going to win a chip. shyt the casuals was saying it too.

People use to say Indiana was soft and they got bullied until they got James Johnson and dudes stopped doing sneak shyt to the rest of the team.

Isiah Stewart told Turner he was a weirdo and played with legos. Before James he would have fouled Turner hard and then said that shyt. There are levels and the Knicks can use some toughness

Clarkson I get, you bring him off the bench, let him lead the second team... he can create offense on his own, not a horrible pickup.

Russ..... my god would that be a bad decision

I’ve seen enough of Clarkson to know that he will shoot you out of games though.

Can’t stand watching that sack of shyt play.

Jordan Clarkson would be huge if we can get him

Feel the same way about Clarkson that I do about Tre Mann, unless we’re flipping deuce, i don’t see the need for another undersized gunner. (If they’re coming for the low low than fine, whatever). But we need size depth more that a bench microwave.
