He's a volley ball player. And by that I mean he sets the shots for someone w hops to actually do something.
He's literally tall for no reason. Keith van horn had more lift

I was not a big connoisseur of RJ Barrett's game, but I was astonished at how selfish (or simply unaware) he is on offence. Quickley off the bench is basically a lesser clone of JB.
How does this relate to Hartenstein? I think he is frustrated a lot of times by the absence of touches on offence, there was a sequence last night where he was holding his head in disbelief after Barrett was not able to throw the alley to him even when triple-teamed. He can be very effective, as he was on the Clippers, when playing with good cutters and receiving the ball in the high-post early in the offence, but this also NEVER happens on the Knicks. I honestly hope he gets traded to a team where they play less selfish basketball, or at least one point guard in the whole roster is able te execute an entry pass to a rolling big man after the pick.
I was actually hoping we would sign him instead of cooked Javale McGee in Dallas this year. Do you guys want Dwight Powell on an expiring deal for him? I would swap them in a second.

We are very happy we were able to get Brunson away from Luka's ball domination. We now have a possible allstar PG who may not be "John Stockton" but is more than adequate playmaking option for us. I agree that RJ could be a little more unselfish but I'm happy that we have him as our third option when he'd easily be a 2nd option for the Mavericks.
Regarding your trade suggestion for Powell, no thanks...we are not in the business of acquiring your one dimensional volley ball players. Have a good day sir.

I will take Spencer Dinwiddie and Christian Wood over RJ any day. Heck even Tim Hardaway JR is at least a functional basketball player.

You mean scary right? Could have derailed your whole post-season push.
