He's completely useless.
He's dreadful on Defense.
He's putrid on Offense.
He's the most and least athletic NBA player I've ever witnessed.
He makes me not even want to watch Knicks basketball anymore.
I love coach Thibs but if Thibs doesn't completely remove EF from his rotation? I'll lose all the respect I've ever had for him.
Our identity is gone because of Evan Fournier.

C'mon, don't mince words. Tell us what you really think about Evan.
28 minutes?
2 points?
1 rebound?
0 assists?
1/5 FG?
0/4 3PT?
WTF IS HE ON THE COURT FOR?!?
+/- of -13?
Wow just wow and Kemba Walker got the AX and not this pathetic pos crap Evan Fournier? Wow just fkn wow!
Yes f u c k Fournier time to earn that 19 million by sitting on the pine … seriously no effort, subpar defense, and just terrible chemistry… and thibs plays him the whole 3rd quarter to blow the game it’s time to change it thibs wake the f up

It started before the 3rd Q.
In the 2nd Q late 2nd he benched the young kids and PUT IN EVAN FOURNIER and that was that.
His Defense is putrid and his Offense is nothingness.
He’s awful
Somebody fd up for 80 million
He’s Howard eisley
Fournier is not helping repair the negative stigma that originated either from WWII or with Frederick Weis a long time ago...

Naw, Howard Eisley sucked, but at least his impact was felt at times. Evan is a phantom.

We could prob still use kemba in a positive way. I don’t feel good about ef anywhere
Its france we can't pick players from that country anymore fournier, frank, and fredrick weis. The knicks need band that country from there rotation of players because it not working.
I've completely given up on Fournier but it's not all on him. Randle, RJ, Rose and Noel have severely declined from last season. Overall the team defense has severely declined too.
Too bad they will never bench Fournier after giving him $80M. 
Hoping some dumb team trades for him like they did for Tim Hardaway Jr. but it'll probably not be until the summer.
Fournier has been bad no doubt. Some guys just can’t make the transition from small market to spotlight. That’s really what it comes down to in this situation. How can you predict that ?

Yeah, I would be too upset if they tried Kemba/Burks in the SL. I think Knicks film school cited a stat that the Knicks defense was dramatically better when Mitch played without Fournier. Probably the same with Noel too.

Dude lit it up in the Olympics, especially against team USA. I wouldn't expect him to turn into a shrinking Violet. But he's looking B*#ch made at the moment.

Genius level stuff.
Funny part is that Boston appears to have won the sign and trade by getting a 17.1mm trade exception and getting rid of Fournier. Curse of Frederic Weiss — the pattern of failed French players in NY continues.
Maybe we can trade him for Buddy Hield- their contracts are roughly the same in two seasons time, plus Hield is likely a better personality match for NY- he's just as bad a defender as Fournier but should actually give you the offense we envisaged
Is Thibs being held hostage by the front office? He pulled the plug on Kemba, maybe the front office is holding a gun on Thibs head preventing him from benching EF. It will look bad for the front office if the salary cap this team was saving for the past several years ended up just both sitting on the bench.
The front office has a good eye identifying young talent via draft and now it seems their weakness is telent evaluation/team fit for veterans/star players.
At this point im leaning heavily on developing the young guns keeping the picks and getting more young talent rather than gamble and give away promising young studs and future picks for a sure fire superstar in his prime that is not a good fit for the system that Thibs want to implement.
EF didn't forget to play basketball. The whole starting 5 has sucked all year. The flow of the offense is non-existent. Energy feed off defense and offense. The SL gives poor effort.
They seem in a vicious circle of no effort, poor rythm, poor play. It is their job to figure it out otherwise they deserve to be called out but I don't think the problem is individual regression.
