The Official 2025/2026 NBA Season - The New York Knicks Are The 2026 NBA CHAMPIONS!!!


MIchael Jordan said on his sportscentury said that he changed up his dressing style because he said that people may only get to see Michael Jordan one time and he wanted to be dressed appropriately. It sounds self absorbed but when you listen to grown people talk about Michael Jordan's aura in those days, you understand. I also think that Juanita helped with this as well.
 
I want the part where they call out Rudy.
"If I'm Reeves, I'm calling for the screen going at Gobert. If the screen isn't to Rudy I don’t even want it."
:lol:
That's the truth, and history states that he's one of the best defenders Ever!

Their offense sucks. Too many possessions where AR is trying to create for himself until 10 on the clock with everyone else standing still.

The same thing was true in the game Austin & Luka played in together last week. When Luka was trying to create, AR was one of the dudes mostly standing still.

If one guy is supposed to be the primary scorer & play-maker then all eyes are going to be him. Everyone else needs to be constantly moving, cutting, screening, etc. Too much standing around on this team right now.
You’re right the offense sucks, but what you described is their offense.

The offense is Luka, and with him gone it’s Austin. It’d be nice if the other bums, I mean players could do something to create a shot.

But they’re just manure on the court, like you said they need to cut move and make shit happen. It’s not a successful offense if the others just stand around doing nothing.

Also like @Complex said, they’re missing two of their best players so…

But still
