I learned at a young age after watching John Wallace drop 44 and outplay Iverson in the first game of SL not to take these games seriously.


i was so hyped when they drafted wallace. i watched syracuse and loved him. it never happened though.


Wallace could ball but he was one dumb motherfcker

Holy crap, maybe it means rj isnt ready to play in the FC yet if Knox is showing way better.
It's literally a small ball lineup with Knox at the 4. If Knox has improved to this extent there won't be much debate that Knox should play the 3 over rj.

This is why I'm never leaving NYC. I'm in central Queens and even floods didn't reach my area. **** like money, nice weather and taxes are secondary to safety.

again kid is 19...the physicals parts of the game he can develop but I want him making the right plays first and foremost...he missed multiple open shooters just in this game to take a widely constested layup.

I mean there’s a reason why RJ was called Tim at times in the draft thread. We just have to hope he grows out of that.

RJ has the physical tools to be a good NBA player. But it's going to take some time. We're talking 2 to 3 years at least. We just need to be patient.
