Any news on if RJ will play?
This one is must win for the tournament. Gonna be hard to advance if you don't win your group (think there's only 2 wild cards for 2nd place) and 2 losses would more or less end any hopes of moving on. That said who knows if we should care. Regardless of the tournament you gotta beat the Wizards as they stink
Please hold both Poole and Kuzma under 50 points each.
If RJ out again - this is very weird (migraines don't work this way) - they hit and leave. They don't go on for 3-5 days - at least in my experiences.
If Grimes out (which I assume) --- hopefully we get some Deuce on the loose and let the kid play +20 minutes for once - could use him to hassle Poole.
Definitely want this one - feel like both these games are potential trap games Fri/Sat but hopefully we are mature and Thibs doesn't grind starters for +40 mins tonight.
Someone mentioned (maybe me as well previously) that Knicks may be managing RJ knee issue but for some reason calling it migraines - not sure why they'd do that or why RJ would agree to that.
If Grimes and RJ out.... Fournier minutes?

I bet you see those 2 way guys first.

Lack of transparency is not my favorite aspect of Knicks regime.

Do other teams do a far better job or following in Leons mode to keep their cards close to the vest?
We can speculate it all from it actually being a thing? Or we can let our imaginations run that a big trade is pending and new team wants that knee evaluated in full!
All we can do is hope he does not need extended time off or worse.
Maybe he just over worked it over the summer and has to manage it. Did he take an injection to reduce the inflammation and have to wait it out? Perhaps.
If both RJ and Grimes sit this out I believe starting DDV and JH is the way. They do have that connection from Villanova. This way IQ can continue to dominate second units and Deuce can get the rest of the minutes in the backcourt.We should see more Simms too.

Have had migraines for multiple days. Not fun. Severity can fluctuate.

Ironically you’re the one who’s imagination ran.
Sneaky big game here. Knicks schedule has been rough and we've mostly only lost to really good teams + the Pels. A bad loss would be pretty deflating right now as we push through the early schedule and try to get on a winning track.

Same. And I mean the nausea inducing, altered vision causing, nosebleeding kind. The fear is that there might be some other underlying issues.
I had what I thought was a migraine a month ago and it turned out to be viral meningitis. But it was a bad headache+ a fever so that tipped me off. Thibs did say he was under the weather. Hopefully RJ doesn't have something much worse- viral meningitis is way better than bacterial (you need immediate antiboitics), but it can knock you out a cpl weeks.

Guilty as charged.
Or lack of descriptor for the Sarcastic depiction.
I really think RJ got caught juicing and had to detox with some "Migraine" meds
