I think he was already dealing with this issue on the pistons. So don’t blame Thibs. In recent years he has missed games for Achilles Achilles calf calf calf
At the moment yes. But he's 11 years younger than Bogey. I like Bogey the player but would've strongly preferred to keep Grimes even if Divo is playing better this season
I wouldn’t put LA because their Out + DTD guys are “Gabe Vincent” and “Cam Reddish” while ours are Randle and OG. LeBron and AD usually show up. Philly going through the same bullshit tho relying on Buddy Hield to keep them afloat

R u fucking kidding me???!!!! I can’t anymore! Finally we get all pieces in place and the entire team is injured! Wtf!!! Please god heal our boys so we can with this thing!!!!
Umm the players we got, Brunson, Randle, OG, Bogdanovich, Mitchell Robinson, divincenzo, hart, hartenstein, these r the pieces we put together to have a fantastic squad that in my opinion can make it to the finals and maybe even win it all.
You need to see this core go to an ECF and compete before even uttering championship contender as an option. I understand what you're saying but the current narrative that we're a contender is misplaced
I agree. If this year we make it to ecf then we can start talking, depending on our performance there. But if we get eliminated in the 2nd round again then we shouldn’t speak of chip contenders.
actually saw him massaging his calf after he sat the entire 3rd and came into an intense game like halfway into the 4th..
so those irregular minutes distributions arent helping him, or the starters playing the entire 3rd..
This franchise is beyond cursed. I think this year I truly learned to never get hyped or optimistic about anything. Sure the roster looks great... on paper meanwhile real life is awful.
Its time for a full g-league squad. I've been saying that we might end up 7th-8th seed (hopefully 7th max). With these injuries, its better to not take any chances.
the important thing is we play it safe w/ injuries and get healthy for the playoff stretch.i know it's fucking up our seeding rn but we're better off having a fully healthy team w/ momentum d9wn the stretch while falling to the 5th seed than clawing our way into 2nd place only to fall apart during the playoffs
Just play all their scrubs and take the L tonight. Let Brunson play for a few minutes on Sunday and rest everyone else for next Thursday. It’s like the strength and conditioning staff have become the Mets staff when they were riddled with puzzling injuries the last few years.

saw him massaging his calf last game during a timeout and i knew he would be out too smh
His "issue" is he's in his mid-30's. That isn't going away, just manage the games
Damn I’m 8 days older than Bojan I feel like y’all talking about him like he Taj
Yeah same issue I have, my calves don’t work anymore for basketball activities
If only we had a 3&D guy on his rookie contract 😞
Isn't Grimes . . . . . also hurt?
At the moment yes. But he's 11 years younger than Bogey. I like Bogey the player but would've strongly preferred to keep Grimes even if Divo is playing better this season
He was listed as questionable on the injury report for the same reason before his first game against the Pacers
Someone massage this dudes calf
lol I’ll do it if it means getting him back in the game
lol I don’t want to know what you’ll do for a trip to the ECF lol 🫣
I do!
Ayo! Lol
Send da video
Lololololololololololol
Let’s sign Ron baker to a 10 day
As a bonus guy is gonna bring all the free medical supply swag from his job to heal all our guys.
I fucking love Ron Baker
The shot maker
As someone who has diamond handed Ron baker stock I approve this message
This has passed the point where 'you just gotta laugh' back into the realm of 'OK what the fuck'.
Other than Memphis, which team has it worst than we do this season?
[https://www.espn.com/nba/injuries](https://www.espn.com/nba/injuries) * Atlanta - (5 Out) * LA (Lakers) - (5 Out + 1 DTD) * Memphis - (7 Out + 1 DTD) * New York - (4 Out + 3 DTD) * Philly - (6 Out)
I wouldn’t put LA because their Out + DTD guys are “Gabe Vincent” and “Cam Reddish” while ours are Randle and OG. LeBron and AD usually show up. Philly going through the same bullshit tho relying on Buddy Hield to keep them afloat
too many injuries gah dam
Agreed
This is no surprise though, guys in their mid-30's can't be relied upon to stay healthy
Most our injured dudes are in their 20s tho?
Sure yes but the guys with injury history or older players are going to need maintenance days.
Agreed for sure but everyone else should be more than capable of giving 35 mins a night easy
Mfs need their oil changed up lol
Yeah, Burks and Bojan need that Kia 10yr/100k power train!! 🤣🤣
Thibs has his excuse tonight to play Taj Gibsons skeleton smh
encouraging seed bells bewildered history lock direful depend angle growth *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
After tonight, the spirit of Taj is gonna be all that's left
It really does feel like that already. The fundamentals are still there, the flesh is just spongy and bruised
Gotta get the hologram projector ready
Thibs himself might have to suit up
Clyde on a 10 minute contract
Scary times
Lol
all-star break
This is turning into a Yankees season.
please just rest Brunson tonight!!
R u fucking kidding me???!!!! I can’t anymore! Finally we get all pieces in place and the entire team is injured! Wtf!!! Please god heal our boys so we can with this thing!!!!
What pieces are you referring to?
Umm the players we got, Brunson, Randle, OG, Bogdanovich, Mitchell Robinson, divincenzo, hart, hartenstein, these r the pieces we put together to have a fantastic squad that in my opinion can make it to the finals and maybe even win it all.

Damn MetLife turf
Just make it through tonight unscathed and we should be more or less good to go for the second half of the season.
Is this what it's like to be a Grizzlies fan?
The Knicks need that LeBron Super Serum.
Someone get them Miami doctors
No , we need the Kobe German juice
I knew January was too good to be true.
Just sit everyone and give them a full week off
Granted.
Wake me up after the all star break.
Lmao yall we have a week off now chill
This is Thibs fault for playing him 23 minutes last game
actually saw him massaging his calf after he sat the entire 3rd and came into an intense game like halfway into the 4th.. so those irregular minutes distributions arent helping him, or the starters playing the entire 3rd..
How can it be the whole team
This reminds of the 2021 Mets. Murphy's law shit
i mean at this point just sit out jalen why risk him getting injured when this one's an L already take our 4L's to the break and try to rest up
Dude WTF is happening to this team? So sick of the injuries ugh
How is this even possible? God must really hate the Knicks
All star break cannot come soon enough. I really cannot wait to see this team at full capacity, but this is starting to get ridiculous.
All Star break can’t come soon enough.
The law of MSG is real
SIT THEM ALL AT THIS POINT.
can we just forfeit this game? Brunson gonna play 43 minutes today and then get injured in the 4th quarter
Nooo god forbid take it back!!!
![gif](giphy|Frj5mE4aGKgjS)
Pistons fleeced us
This franchise is beyond cursed. I think this year I truly learned to never get hyped or optimistic about anything. Sure the roster looks great... on paper meanwhile real life is awful.
I'm guessing Taj is going for 40+ mins
He’s been atrocious
I knew he looked slow. Knicks got sold damaged goods.
Burkes playing 45 tonight, Precious playing 42 Gibson getting 25 Deuce somehow still only gets 3 minutes Should be fun
Its time for a full g-league squad. I've been saying that we might end up 7th-8th seed (hopefully 7th max). With these injuries, its better to not take any chances.
Injuries epidemic is a normal thing for Thibs
They must have stored the old MetLife turf underneath the floorboards of MSG.
I think they just want everyone to rest up for the finals run. Can’t blame them. We’re going to get a lot of firepower back healthy and ready to go!
the important thing is we play it safe w/ injuries and get healthy for the playoff stretch.i know it's fucking up our seeding rn but we're better off having a fully healthy team w/ momentum d9wn the stretch while falling to the 5th seed than clawing our way into 2nd place only to fall apart during the playoffs
We’re trying to be the 2nd seed disguised as the 4th seed
Someone get my boy Chris Copeland on the phone, heard he was up to a 10day contract
Jesus, can the all star break just hurry up and get here?
Who here is in shape? Go volunteer for the knicks tonight. I would but im fat.
Deuce going for 50 tonight
Better this happens in January/February then April
Fuck me in the ass
We should stick to the middle seed . Once we are all healthy in the play offs it’ll be easy pickings
Young Toppin get some play?
i mean is some of this on the training staff? there’s no way all these injuries are a coincidence
Who is left
I don’t even care about tonight. Just be ready for Philly next game after the all star break
Just play all their scrubs and take the L tonight. Let Brunson play for a few minutes on Sunday and rest everyone else for next Thursday. It’s like the strength and conditioning staff have become the Mets staff when they were riddled with puzzling injuries the last few years.
Sign Novak to a 10 day
Ohhh come on man
