    Don’t worry about Rj. In a couple of weeks when he has a rare efficient outing, his Cult will remove this game from his stats and say, “Rj has been killing it lately!“

  2. ryan9699

    I just can’t with RJ anymore. He needs to go

  3. GoldenBoyRecords

    Tough loss. I’m an RJ fan but he was pretty bad on both ends. I think this game highlights we need a wing with some size who can defend guys like Kawhi, PG, Tatum, etc. I think it’s a big reason why we struggle against the raptors for example who basically play a bunch of all wing lineups. I think we have to keep that mind with guys like RJ and Grimes who give up several inches and weight. I want to give a shout to Deuce who showed a lot more confidence on the offensive end tonight and Obi for making the most of his limited minutes

  4. knicksprick

    So annoyed man. This would’ve have been such a nice win.

  5. YanniSwagger

    I genuinely don’t understand RJ Barrett any more

  6. Congrats to RJ for putting up one of the worst games I’ve seen from a player in a long time. Truly an impressive feat.

  7. Affectionate-Tea9224

    The inability to secure that rebound costs the Knicks 2 losses, because now they have no chance tomorrow night

  8. slyguy183

    RJ played 43 minutes tonight and I don’t see a drop of sweat on him. Hustle your ass more! You should be pouring buckets like Ewing

  9. not a knicks fan but rj is showing his very detrimental floor in games like this. i literally like him too

  10. smallskeletal

    The final 5 minutes of the 4th Quarter was some of the best basketball this team has played all season, the 5 minutes of OT was some of the worst

  11. Street-Truth97

    What does RJ do well? He used to be at least a step quicker, but now he’s a liability on defense too. You can’t have a guy with his shooting touch going out there and firing away either.

  12. AlfredHampton88

    Tough one. We need more offensive fire power.

    Also why didn’t Thibs just put Julius on Kawhi for the game? Julius did a better job on that assignment.

  13. Expensive-Buy1621

    Why didn’t they foul with 3 seconds left???? 😭

  14. felz_kun

    So done with RJ’s dogshit game. Volume shooter on low efficiency that can’t even defend.

  15. Jimmit79

    randle and brunson are both allstars for me we are lucky to have two such good players in knicks uniform

  16. PennyStockKing

    Brunson doing all this carrying, just so RJ can brick wide open 3s and play 0 defense for 40 minutes. Randle didn’t play great either, but at least he knows when to pick his moments for the most part.

  17. Living_Internet_2970

    Brunson feeling like melo out there. Do everything but end up losing cuz niggas like rj suck

  18. TribecaBleach

    This franchise made a huge mistake extending RJ Barrett

  19. So Thibs rightfully benched RJ the other night, but tonight he’s allowed to play the most minutes and take the most shots on the team in one of his worst games as a knick. Coaching masterclass.

  20. LolBruh46

    rj needs to learn from randle and atleast put some effort in when ur shooting badly

  21. BulkyOnion

    Brunson deserves better man damn RJ just so painful to watch

  22. JonnySports

    The Nets get Cam Thomas putting up 40 point games and securing clutch W’s and we get RJ doing whatever the fuck that was. We’re so fucking cursed as a franchise. It never gets better.

  23. How did Brunson become this good? I remember he couldn’t do anything against us in the 21 playoffs

    Sorry I was stickybeaking here and forgot I was not in the clippers postgame thread

  24. Goatlikejordan

    Rj reaction time has been a bit slow this year. Maybe a lot slow

  25. Jesus Jalen is such a diamond

    He takes the loss so personally, he is all about winning, and he is going to be a star for us in no time.

  26. hopoffmebruh

    I’m commenting late, but look what this team is doing without a #1. If we make a huge move, this team has a chance of being really special.
