Lot of fans are too impatient. Just look in here seeing guys sh*tting on RJ not even halfway through year 3. And yeah, odds are he isn't gonna be the guy for us, but he's shown that he could be a really good player
If we don't draft a guy who's a star from day 1, fans aren't patient enough to wait a few years before declaring them a bust.
We wouldn't sh*t on him if he was any good. He's really not.
He's "ok".
I mean, that's fine if he was drafted 20th.
He was drafted 3rd.
It's a setback.
Not as bad a setback as completely whiffing with Frank and Knox, but it's pretty unfortunate coming on the heels of that.
Yeah, I mean 11/4/1.3 on 40/25/62 in his 3rd year is just dreadful
Oh wait, that was Jaylen Brown's first 20 games his 3rd year
RJ's so much worse, just 14/6/2 on 40/31/70 splits... wait a second
He's having a bad year yeah, but y'all are obnoxiously excessive about it. And y'all pretend like he doesn't show flashes, but he does. He's inconsistent (meaning bad right now) but I don't know why y'all are like, so ready to sh*t on draft picks. It's like y'all want them to be bad
I'm fine with people saying he's regressed, cause he has so far, but god damn are y'all just excessively pessimistic about everything. It's like a fetish for you people, you want the Knicks to be bad so you can go "woe is me, I'm such a suffering Knicks fan" and have people pity you. He'll be fine, it'd be one thing if he had looked like this the whole time, but last year he looked pretty good, so it's clear he does have some potential
It's just so annoying that whenever RJ misses a shot, the next page and a half of any game thread is unreadable. Y'all give up on guys at every little setback, it's absurd. Nobody's allowed any time to be bad but show flashes, if you're not a star day one, half the fanbase is gonna want you gone. And that's why you can't rebuild in New York.
I wish I could and1 this more than once. I am disappointed too in his recent showings. but damn his shot will fall again and his defense and rebounding are still good. he can get to rim almost every time he wants, I don't know why the **** we are just using him as a spot up shooter right now while he is strugglin from outside.
but K-Dot you are spot on and most of the users in here don't deserve a good knicks team in their lifetime. this is so bad.
very good second season -> "RJ !!!!!"
good preseason and start to this season "RJ BETTER THAN MORANT, HERRO and so on...!!!!"
a bad 10 game stretch "he is the ultimate bust, he's never going to be good !!!"
