Well at least I'll make some money on this L. Had a parlay for 7+ assists for Tyus, 7+ assists for Brunson, and Knicks on the moneyline. Up 17 with 2 minutes to go and garbage time squads in now virtually ensures I'm up $85.

knicks leaving their starters in till the end lol so disrespectful

That's just Thibs. He makes D'Antoni look like he uses his bench too much in comparison. Thibs doesn't let up, which is why some blame him for Derrick Rose's injury riddled career. I believe Rose's first big knee injury took place when the Bulls were up 15-20 with 3 minutes to go. Of course the league was slower then so it was essentially over. Then he blew out his knee. Then when Rose returned Thibs kept playing him like that.

One upside is Nurkic seems to be feeling more comfortable shooting from 3 and guys are more comfortable feeding him out there. Nurk was 3-5 tonight. He was 26% headed into the game and is 30% from deep now.

Nurkic's shooting from 3 has also improved as the season progresses. He was 15% in 5 games in October and 32% in 8 games in November.

Put up 122 and still get crushed by 16… wow. Putrid doesn’t come close to describing this team right now.

The game didn't feel that close.

Knicks got everything they wanted on offense, both inside and out. The Suns didn't take anything away. Phoenix' defense is a sieve and that's minimizing it.
