Lol. Not even close. Best shooter maybe,


Very very good chance that IQ ends up with the 2nd best all around impact analytics on the team.

He might be the most efficient of our top 4 guys, and might lead the 4 in assists, with the lowest turnovers.

Just getting very underrated. This board will make you think he’s a scrub for some reason.

Barnes is our best player, and Ingram might be the most irreplaceable due to his scoring prowess, but IQ is right on their heels for being #2 on this team IMO.

Battle should play for RJ at this point. RJ doesn’t have it.

We I said he would eventually be better than Fred but not as good as Kyle, I got a lot of push back.


I could see that. He is faster and more athletic than both of them. He is starting to remind me of Kyle a little with his relentless hustle & physicality.


He isn't gifted with that large rear for taking charges.

Yeah I’m not sure why we’re not using him a lot more. Imagine him on the Lakers, Nuggets, Cavs, Celtics, etc, etc. he would get so much burn and be utilized as an offensive weapon.

He’s go the type of shot that can change playoff games

Rj has earned the right to play through bad games. He has a track record he’s not some scrub.

Jerome is way better though.

This Cleveland team is not a contender. They need an improvement at the guard spot and I don’t mean Garland.
