Awful stretch. Lead back up to 20. This team just doesn't have enough mofos on it, guys who play tough and get mad and don't stop fighting. This feels like too much of a finesse team, a nice guy team.

Grayson has been so terrible offensively and defensively this season. I’d just go with Okogie here.
Fixed that

Royce O'Neale feels like he's almost single-handedly keeping us in this game. Down 11, signs of life.
Just the last breath before dying.

I love Grayson but the whole vibe changed when he got back in and Knicks went huge run to get their lead to back to 41. He just don’t got the juice in this one.

I need Grayson traded for a tough son of a bitch. A Bobby Portis type. I can't any more. I'm so sick of this lifeless team that has no personalities on it

Nurk is so fucking bad. He's flat out awful.

Bucks in the 2nd apron, so no Bobby Portis as much id love it.

Would Isaiah Stewart, aka Beef Stew, interest you?

I like his physical attributes but he's still such a low IQ player. Not sure if he doesn't just create a different problem.

With Dunn, Okogie, and Oneale this team shouldn't be this bad defensively. Part of it is Nurkic mot being good any literally anything

I like Beef Stew but at like an end of the bench like salary. I don't think he's worth what he's making at 6'8" tall.

Did Okogie beat KAT in a jump ball? Of course he let someone go back door on him, missed a layup, and threw the ball out of bounds on the next 3 plays haha

Would have liked to have given Ty Ty a look earlier this game since we aren't playing much D anyway. Maybe he could get hot

The Okogie experience summed up perfectly.

Brunson is one of my least favorite players to watch…props to him for becoming a legit nba star, but he’s basically mini-Harden…just swings those arms around trying to get fouled

Who is the 2nd best player on the active roster for us tonight? Tyus Jones? Royce O'Neale?

Right on cue, he tricks the refs into calling a foul

Towns is one of those fool's gold guys who isn't actually good but can still put up 27 points on us.

Towns is good, he’s just a dumb basketball player.
