Haha, ya he has his methods that is for sure. I watched the 4th quarter and did not yell ICE once

Here is an interesting question. If Thibs were the current coach with our current roster and Rosas as the POBO, what would he do? Remember, he can't completely ignore Rosas' wishes, so I'd be curious how he'd coach the team differently. He'd definitely have a smaller rotation, that we know.

Malik Beasley at his age and contract vs. Buddy Hield at his age and contract.....Easy choice.

Being honest I think this would say fuck rosas and we are going to win games. Rubio would play less, Culver would play more. Vanderbilt would be in the rotation and the Wolves would grind every single possession

Buddy has sucked tonight.

Warriors are really solid when Green is there

Wiseman runs the floor well

That's exactly what I was going to answer Q's question. No doubt in my mind that Thibodeau would do what he thought would give the team the best chance to win every night. The only players he'd like on this team would be Beasley, Okogie, Vanderbilt, Davis, Reid, Culver, Nowell and JMac. He's like Edwards' talent, but he'd make him earn his minutes.

To be fair to thibs he played Toppin before he got hurt, 2nd year player barrett has played the 3rd most minutes in the NBA and Quigley played the whole 4th quarter even though Payton played well.

I understand why thibs is gone just wish Ryan had more fuck you in him. Ryan is sort of the poster boy in the Taylor ownership era. Nice guy, who isn't the most qualified, always listens to his superior and think this is the thing supports the losing culture. Wish we had a coach that will try his fucking best to win every game

Knicks are also dead last in three point attempts and plays 5th slowest pace. But this time it might be that Thibbs style is better fit for the team that he is coaching.
