of course not a single media outlet will ask why those players were in the game so late either

They better tonight.

 

[ballinsam23]

Series starts now.

Lets see the adjustments

 

[floodarea]

would love for us to blow the series if it means thibs gets the boot

We need IQ to go crazy on Friday and for RJ to at least shoot above 40% smh. Anything from Grimes as this point is a bonus. Dude has just been doing cardio the last 2 games.

 

[silverpsycho12]

Wasn't that Reddish that said that?

What are our chances that we win the next 2 games at home?

Also why doesn't the coaching staff tell RJ to cut to the basket more instead of shoot.

LMAO

I don’t want RJ as a Knick next year. He’s the worst type of volume scorer. We gave him the time, the money, the resources. He’s just not good enough to be a playoff contributor.

Can’t defend, can’t shoot, cant play make. Youll be useless in the games that matter most.

Son I’d be sick if he was on the team next year but it’s going to be hard to get rid of him. Really would hope Toronto would want their fellow Canadian back.

Can’t Evan get some minutes.

 

[ballinsam23]

We’re shooting 25% combined from 3 the first 2 games.

We’re not gonna win this series at this pace.

This was the worst and most pathetic play of the whole game last night.

Backed it up to half court to iso a dude 6 inches shorter than him and

This is insane basketball man.

 

[nick.]

every Quickley-led possession has looked similar to that, too

 

[Coupé It]

I know a lot of you guys don’t like SAS but he’s right here man. He absolutely right.

RJ is on precipice of being benched. He’s brining absolutely nothing to the table right now.

I’d say Go out there to play defense, say you want to try guard Donovan or Garland to lock one of them up to make it easier on everyone else - Nope. He does nothing.

 

[ballinsam23]

Gotta see how we look at home. Maybe the home crowd will make us hit some shots off the energy.

 

[ballinsam23]

Id sit RJ for Miles McBride. Atleast McBride gives defense.

Thibs would NEVER

Or just gives Grimes/Hart more minutes.

This RJs 2nd playoff and 4th season. Top 3 pick. This is who he is at this point.

 

[donewithjs]

And Quickley has played 17 less minutes but why aren’t Rjs minutes being cut?

 

[Coupé It]

Exactly, Quickley has had his problems but he’s not being shoved out there to play 33 mins and bring absolutely nothing to the team for the majority of the game.

 

[Mark Antony]

Damn ya'll killing RJ, making me feel bad for him like ol boy.

Man RJ has he shielded and coddled in New York man.

He’s been given preferencial baby treatment since the absolute beginning.

Thibs treats him like a son.

I say it’s about time RJ gets some criticism.

 

[ballinsam23]

The thing is these are the same exact struggles RJ had all year. He had a horrible season.

 

[アミーゴ]

Let’s make some damn 3s
