In this episode, I host a Twitter post-game Space with Knicks fans to break down an ugly loss to the Magic. I get straight into why we fell apart.OG Anunoby didn't make his first field goal until halfway through the third quarter and took only four shots while Franz Wagner outplayed him all night. Karl-Anthony Towns was a non-factor, with his only meaningful basket coming on a fourth-quarter catch-and-shoot three. Outside of that, he gave us nothing.Brunson had 16 points late in the second quarter, and the next highest scorer was Shamet with five. That can't happen. We also let Desmond Bane get comfortable even though he's been struggling from three all season. Orlando didn't even have Paolo Banchero, yet Da Silva and Goga Bitadze came off the bench and controlled the game.The team shot 11-for-36 from three, committed 14 turnovers, and finished with only 37 rebounds. Hart, Shamet, Clarkson, and Brunson combined to shoot 4-for-17 from deep. Deuce McBride once again offered no offensive impact and no playmaking.I break all of this down with the Knicks community in a blunt, unfiltered post-game conversation.Click the links below for merch, youtube, podcast links and more.Click the links below for the podcast, articles, merch, YouTube channel, and more.Click the links below for:
