No matter how hard they wish tho, RJ isn’t coming out of the lineup. “High volume kid still needs to get better” is real scandalous for sure. Personally, I think he also can’t play next to Julius so that just magnifies his early struggles. Sports psychologist might be the right Rx as mentioned.
Knicks won, 29, 17 and 21 games before this new FO btw. They got the third pick, that everyone hates again, and now its supposed to be time to tank? Is that not tanking already? But they never move up in draft right? So still, start the tank!
Furthermore, do teams jump from bad to contention in an instant? It makes total sense to tear down the only semblance of progress this team has seen in a long time because the fans don’t know what’s good for them.
Lineups and rotations for this team had to take a while because damn near everyone has a good case for pt in the 9 man rotation. The depth thing they kept raving about preszn is gr8 but it matters none for guys 11-15 usually.
Clear as ******* day Deuce is a difference maker and my guy. Looking at the depth chart coming into the yr he was still the odd man out. Same with Jericho and the bigs.
Now a 1/4 of the szn in and its looking like a new rotation is being tried. Biggest problem outside of Julius had been perimeter D; so in comes Deuce to help execute that side better.
