You could say the New York Knicks have had better results this season.
They had the roster to get to the Eastern Conference Finals and even the NBA Finals, but a team can only do so much after being so depleted by injuries.
Tom Thibodeau was not responsible for his player’s injuries.
His team fought hard and took the Indiana Pacers to six games, and they had chances to win even in most of those losses.
That’s why star PG Jalen Brunson hated it when people started talking about injuries and tiredness as an excuse.
Speaking to Josh Hart on the Roommates Show, the Villanova product said he didn’t want that to be the narrative, adding that they still could have won despite the injuries.
