There we go boys. Like the adjustment of doubling Spencer on the pick and roll.

lol

I feel like RJ's nosedive, his relationship to Zion, and the fact that Zion will probably never play 50 games. Well the stars are aligning. Get Zion for RJ.

Actually if Pels are protected as much as is reported then I guess they'll just sit tight.

Randle just waaaaay stronger that most of these 4's that guard him. And he keeps up his dribble ability with the strength

At the game.

RJ really needs to be coming off the bench in that Manu and Harden role y’all. Hart brings the intangibles (Cutting, swinging the ball, movement without the ball, intensity on defense etc) that RJ be lacking at times.

Overall I think he just doesn’t fit as well with the two ball dominant iso guys abd he gets beat on defense too often guarding top 3 scoring options

Actually I’m gonna give kid benefit of the doubt .
He got grandfathered into his role , almost got coach fired .
Eventually started to execute in his role but since had no prior body of work or experience , he might be hitting a wall or losing his legs.
Or losing his edge.

I don't want to crap on Randle, because he's proving me wrong. But I do wonder, is it just because Brunson has been so good most games that Randle is even able to play well?

And ... if Randle were truly really good, Brunson is playing at a high enough level where the Knicks could probably be pretty damn good if Randle were a true All Star. Just sayin' but I've been wrong about Randle so there's that. He's bounced back. I just don't know.

Can't believe that Brunson is not an all-star.

Earlier in this season, knicks used to have a lob play whenever the opportunity arises. I haven't seen one for a long time now
