Team RJ gonna be like "RJ a second half player" when he'll make an open uncontested three.

This is facts.. and I truly feel like RJs inconsistency is a big reason why


He's only had a good half I guess so far. But we've played 2 games not including this lol. Started Orlando game well when it counted and then just didn't have much impact, 8 shots only. He's not going to dominate but Zion will and the Pels will lose. Look at the actual effect and recognize he isn't looking to win games himself.

Kemba is killing us on defense right now, without having the offense to make up for it. It’s not even his on ball defense either, he is consistently late on rotation and is giving up open 3 after 3.

He needs to lock in, you can feel he isn’t taking this matchup that seriously

We basically have 2 starting 5's . Defense is a little soft a times with Kemba and Fournier. Grimes and Deuce could ultimately help there.

Not a great half, as Clyde correctly pointed out, too much 1 on 1, need to move the basketball, I prefer when teams double Randle, opens up the floor and forces Randle into a passer

It’s getting scary.. was largely absent in that Boston game until late in the 3rd.. nothing in Orlando and nothing so far in my against these same Magic..

With each passing game I’m coming closer to the realization that if Rj wants any individual success in the future it’s going to come when he’s not in a Knick uni!!!!!!

The bench is excellent, but it’s not the better 5, they are primarily playing against opponents bench which gives the Knicks a huge edge..

This reminds me of last year when RJ started slowly and everyone started calling him a bust. I think he just needs to adjust to the offense and the new guys.

However Thibs should be running more plays for him. The Randle-Fournier two man game is good, but they can run the same sets with RJ screening for Randle and then going downhill.

This taj (or sims) substitution at the 5-6min mark, I’m thinking thibs should just go ahead and put obi in instead of subbing in for randle.

Knicks have lot of offensive weapons now RJ won't be scoring a lot like last season and talent wise Obi and Mitch are leaving him in dust.
