[@jayjayfrmstatefarm9363]

Knicks are extremely well coached. Even up 40 with the end of the bench in they are still playing good defense. Shout out to Thibs.

[@dusk6159]

That's higher echelon in the conference-level coaching and playing, by the coach and the formation. Knicks are getting closer and closer to the Ecf now, no matter the years.

[@bahamasc]

Yea he coaches the entire game till the end. If they make a mistake up 30 he calls timeout and yells at them.

[@ElTuco84]

Thibs was calling timeouts in the 4th quarter pissed at the team lol.

Yeah but that would be going against Monty's wishes. You heard him the other night he doesn't want to be a part of Thibs gets his team to play.

I know right. I'm not going to say anything because I don't want to jinx it. Been waiting too long for a legit contender.

[@jonz23m]

Great coaching and team chemistry is better than 3 diva superstars any day.

[@djpanaligan1775]

Thibs created a whole pack of Dobermans in this team 😆

[@RGT85]

The best part was the last 2 minutes of this vid featured a lot of dudes who just sit on the bench mostly (Jeffries, Milton, etc) and they still defend right.

[@greencreature]

You know Thibs demands defense when the final clip is 138-94 with 4 minutes and change left and guys are still showing effort on that end

[@lucasmartinez5703]

This is a coach that whips his players into shape. Well disciplined.

[@agoodauthority]

And what's most impressive is they were up 44 on those last few highlights. They never let up.

[@jcshippernyc]

And those were their true bench players. The entire team can play the team defense. ☺️

[@joeymhutchins]

Every NBA team should bring you in to roast their players after a loss. Masterful breakdown as always, cheers for this!

Bravo bro, this is the greatest film breakdown I’ve ever seen no diddy

[@Tsnippo]

No diddy

[@BrooklynBalla]

Gotta love Thibs still angry while up 30 and calling timeouts because the Raptors went on a 4-0 run 🤣

[@guitarnerdjoey1192]

Makes sense though. Mostly bench players out there, so he is using this time to teach them and coach them to be tough and do things right. Its the best experience the deep bench will get.

[@cptsonicbelmont]

​@@guitarnerdjoey1192 So true, I think that's a huge reason why we're still a top 10 team in the league despite lost almost the entire starting lineup to injuries. Thibs doesn't care if you're a starter playing the whole game or a 3rd string who only comes out when up 20 in the 4th. You're still expected to play at a high level and if you mess up you're gonna hear it. This team is the epitome of HARD WORK. 💪

[@CJ_Playmaker]

When the OG and following trades happened there was a thought among fans that McBride wasnt gonna get any minutes. Hes played himself into the rotation for many years to come

[@jakespeed8246]

Heck, he's been getting more minutes than anybody else.

[@odogg6899]

I dunno about many years. Hes been playing soooo good he might play himself out of the team in a trade for DMITCH because i know they going to ask for McBride. Imma be pissed tho lol. But if burks bogs and mcbride plus 4-5 firsts can get it done im doing it.

[@roccooooooooo]

@@odogg6899we don’t want dmitch anymore

[@mgtow-balance3409]

i think thibs saw something in him that many people didn't

[@NYC_Goody]

​@roccooooooooo i wouldn't turn down Donovan being a cardinals fan and Knicks fan, watching him since college, I've loved his game. But I'm so big on deuce that I'd hate to see him go

[@tonytooshort]

I knew my Knicks were playing great defense, but watching you break it down like this just unlocked a new level of proud.

[@ahsayakir4274]

This is Thibs 3rd defensive masterclass video in under a minute. Knicks deserve a medal.

[@lokigr]

This is a great breakdown. The only other thing I would point out is how much the Knicks players communicate while they are on defense.

[@mgtow-balance3409]

it's vids like this that give coach thibs his props. the whole starting lineup has been out sometimes and they're STILL gonna win around 50 games. thibs most def gotta be coach of the year

[@cptsonicbelmont]

For sure, a lot of the top teams in the league would barely make the play-in without their star player to base everything around.

[@bigknickenergy]

"Right here Bogdanovic rotates over" - Bogey is bouncing up and down on his feet in one spot. But it doesn't matter because Thibs broke this man and made him happy in the last couple weeks

[@Ma1q444]

Confirmed Thibs best coach in the league

[@JwebGuru]

Thibodeau, by coaching RAPM, is the fourth best coach since 1997 and has the same impact on court as an All NBA caliber player, almost entirely on the defensive end.

[@openyoureyes0421]

Knicks really have about 5 or 6 shutdown defenders when they’re locked in too

[@jakespeed8246]

Just consider our best defender wasn't even on the court. Insane.

Dude they're up by 40 but playing defense like Thibs will take them off court if they didn't do it😂

[@HVBRSoF]

they're bench players fighting for minutes. garbage time is their audition. ofc they're gonna be playing crazy defense to get more minutes.

[@cptsonicbelmont]

That's how you build a team that can withstand injuries to all of its starters and STILL be a top 10 team. Everyone is expected to work hard, no special treatment given.

[@WutTheDeuceGaming]

Thibs has the most positive vids from him, but he might also be contending for most negative vids as well. For a while, Thibs was a regular for bad defensive games.

[@randylahey8207]

It's a sign that Tibs really is a good coach. I'm sure he sees the same problems, and he's managed to get the team back to playing defense how they did earlier in the year. They're dangerous...

[@WW-ik7vr]

Thibbs has mentioned this a lot in years past and it's showing so much this year w this personell... elite defense in modern nba is about multiple efforts. Elite rim protection plus guys who fly around the perimeter all who have high ball IQ is 🤌🤌
