I would like nothing better than for us to win with RJ hitting some clutch shots as a payback to (punk) Anthony Edwards.

They have a beef?
Ant had some stupid ass statement his rookie year when RJ took the last shot for the game winner and missed. Said something to the effect that the Wolves (or he) was hoping RJ would be taking the shot. Didn't exactly take the high road, e.g., hard fought game, glad we came out on top -- instead was calling RJ a choke artist

Can only hope RJ is going to use this as a major motivating factor to ball out tonight. Really hoping he doesn't force bad shots though
The Knicks losing problem the other night vs Boston, and the past 5 games (1-4) had more to do with Tom Thibs giving no-defensive players Randle & Barrett & Brunson above 28 minutes of playing time in each of the 5 games.
D.Rose winning leadership has EARNED 18 to 24 min of playing time ....
Quickley's creativeness EARNED 18 to 24 min of playing-time ....
Obi Toppin's above the rim HOPS EARNED 18 to 24 min playing-time ....
Hartenstein showed he's worth 18 to 24 min of playing time ....
Cam Reddish defensive talents are better along side the bench lineup, but Cam's talents are more needed on the Knicks starter lineup, because MitchRob has been the only defensive player on the Knicks starter lineup since Bullocks left.
Last night game vs Celtics, at the end of the 3rd quarter announcer Walt Clyde said, "Whatever team play DEFENSE in the 4th quarter will win the game.".
It wasn't two minutes into the 4th quarter (Celtics have 5 pt lead) when Tom Thibs takes D.Rose & Quickley out the game for Brunson & Barrett.
The Knicks scored 22 pts in the 4th quarter (7 pts belong to Obi) compared to the Celtics 32 pts.
D.Rose leadership has been the Knicks TOP winning CLOSER player for 2 seasons ..
Free D.Rose .... And stop TANKING using FAKE star players !!!

Obi a -22.
IQ a -16
EF a -19
Other than Rose, the players that had the best +/- played.
But you do you.

The #1 pick rookie Edwards told us Knicks fans what we did not want to hear, but we knew was true.
All Knicks opponents the past 4 seasons has always left RJ Barrett wide open on the perimeter however, last season none of the Knicks opponents ever left Fournier open on the perimeter.
The same way the Atlanta Hawks always want Randle & Barrett shooting the ball in every quarter of the game.

But you do you.
D.Rose leadership have players moving without the ball, ball movement, and chemistry.
Brunson & Randle have teammates standing as statues on offense/defense in a two-touch offense.
The D.Rose, Quickley, Burks, Obi, lineup were always better than any lineup having Randle & Barrett in it.
You must be a big fan of Leon Rose extension, and Tom Thibs foolish coaching !!!

You did it bro. Figured out how to realistically fix our problems. Just email Rose tomorrow and let him know we should trade RJ, trade Randle, fire Thibs and start IQ, Rose, Obi and of course BURKS. Details on replacements to follow. Relative info to be ignored.
Highlighted what we were talking about since it seems like you got hit over the head.
Small reminder, the game we were talking about consisted of Obi being a -22 and IQ a -16.
So "always better" may have some holes.
So fun watching teams exchange 3’s.
I’m glad I got to see the golden age of hoops. Those were the good ol’ days.
Team is so much more fun to watch with no EF in starting lineup
