Tom Thibodeau highlighted Josh Hart's crucial role in the Knicks' win: "What can you say about Josh? He willed that game at the end. The hustle plays, they saved the game for us." His performance was pivotal in securing the victory against the depleted Sixers.
Thibodeau pointed to Achiuwa's contributions: "[Achiuwa's] blocks were huge. Huge. He gives you a little more switchability, and his reaction to the ball was big time." This underscores the importance of defensive adaptability.
On player injuries, Thibodeau emphasized resilience: "It's the NBA, no one at this time of year is 100 percent. I appreciate our guys. They're playing with soreness, minor injuries, and that's what I love about them." His respect for the team's effort is evident.
Thibodeau discussed the necessity of adaptation: "Every player is different. You go into a game planning for certain players, and suddenly their lineup's completely different. Injuries happen, and how quickly can you adapt? That's the challenge we all face." This captures the dynamic nature of the league.
