Substitute thread since it seems the bot is down.
The knicks cannot afford to lose the effort game. We don’t have the talent level other teams have to compensate losing the hustle and effort game. This is why we brought in guys like Hart and DDV and have Quickly.
Unfortunately we got guys like Randle on the team that bring the effort levels down and hurt the entire team. Also learn to make goddamn free throws. The whole team besides quickly seem to have forgotten how to shoot FTs smh.
Our free throws are down a whopping 4% compared to last year. I’m not saying we don’t need to improve-- we do, and we needed to do better last year as well-- but it’s not as though “the whole team besides Quickly [sic] have forgotten how to shoot FTs”
RJ Barrett is shooting 84% from the FT line.
In the last two games, Jimmy Butler and Devin Booker put up potential game-winning three-pointers from almost the exact same spot on the MSG floor.
Booker made his shot, and Butler didn’t. Sometimes it’s as simple as that.
