What's next RJ and Mitch for Duarte and Turner?

Team IQ losing confidence in their own guy.

Sad.

Really really sad.

You guys were hating on the off-season until we got rj more help. Sounds like to me you have no confidence in rj. Team rj exposed!!!!!

I imagine its:

Walker/ Rose/ McBride
Barrett/ Quickley / Grimes
Fournier/ Burks


Yeah barring injury I would expect Walker to start. I would also expect the Knicks to target a wing with their remaining $$.

Fournier and Burks are SG's
Barrett and Grimes are SF's.

This complicates it for Quickly. He would be subbing for SG's or PG's. Kemba/Rose/McBride/Fournier/Burks. You think Thibs forces IQ in there? I can't see it. Barrett is not a SG.

Glad for Kemba. I felt he was dealt a bad hand in Boston with all the injuries. Can still be an 18-20 ppg guy and won't be relied upon as much there with the other guards you have. Have found quite a niche on defense as being elite in drawing charges.

I doubt that Grimes gets much PT, if any.

But hopefully that backcourt/wing-depth forces Thibs to play some smaller line-ups here and there.

Obviously Kemba, Rose, and Fournier will be our top 3 guards, but I’d rather see IQ next in line rather than Burks or McBride.

First scorer: Randle
Second: Fournier
Third: RJ, Kemba?
6th man punch: Burks, IQ, Rose?
Men to watch: Obi and Mitch after he hits a 3

It's not awful.

I don't expect him to really break out before year 4, but there's nobody blocking him from becoming (at his pace) the player he's supposed to become anymore.

It's on him now. I like that.

I hope he's working on his finishing because his path to the rim should be easier with either Kemba or Rose in the starting-line-up.

Team IQ not giving this post any And1 is proof of their pettiness and horribleness.

We joke, we laugh, but at the end of the day these guys are not our friends. They're our enemies.

Exactly, Thibs will go small like he did much of last year. Two of Fournier, Burks and Barrett will get most of their time at SF with the other as the primary SG. Don't see Grimes getting much of anything. Quickley will get floor time backing up the SG spot.

Guess we’ll see three guard lineups and Burks will have to play some 3?


He barely play another position last season. He played SF with a Rose(Frank)/IQ(Rivers) backcourt.
