  1. The Fournier narrative is such manipulative BS from Thibs… Tell me I'm lying about these events… RJ was BAD during a lot of stretches last season on both sides..

    RJ set the tone the first game of the season against Memphis how the politics of the Knicks hold this team back..

    RJ was shooting us out of the game .. Brunson was in foul trouble… But as usual with minimum credit, Julius did his thing and Cam Reddish gave us a boost.

    There was a point during closing time RJ still forcing it… Thibs wouldn't pull him.. Cam had a great game but we lost. That game would've set the tone for Cam.

    The RJ agenda robbing opportunities… RJ continued leading the team in shot attempts because there was this notion that RJ was ready to take a leap.

    RJ was projected to slide Julius down to the 3rd option… Despite that 1st game in Memphis, the team was being led by RJ in shot attempts..

    They kept losing… RJ was playing so bad vs OKC at the Garden Thibs finally benched him…

    But what happened the very next game? The fake "RJ is sick" storyline but he was still leading the team in shots while "sick" ??? Randle and Brunson are healthy.

    That don't sound like politics to you?? RJ is not Luka or any other young star where he gets to play through his bad games..

    They literally ran a fake sick narrative for RJ to buy him time to have a good game… He kept struggling…

    If he was that "sick" that was the only opportunity Cam Reddish /Fournier had to play a bigger role next to Brunson & Randle without RJ in the way.

    But they never got that opportunity… Instead on Randle's birthday is when they officially slid RJ into his 3rd option role.

    Julius now got to take over a little more.. And Brunson would close. Knicks began winning AFTER RJ was slid into that 3rd option role.

    By this time, Grimes was soon coming back and Thibs never looked Cam or Fournier's way.

    RJ Barrett gets spoon fed and baby sat until he gets it together. And it's not an environment you can win with.

    Julius is so toxic but who did Obi get into full blown alterations with on the Knicks? RJ and THIBS.

    THE TWO MOST BULLSH*T narrative driven people on the team.

    Brunson missed 14 games… Randle missed 5… You're telling me in that 9 man rotating the Knicks were winning because Fournier wasn't playing?

    Or was it because they stopped treating RJ like he was ready to take the lead over Randle and be a duo to Brunson?

    Oh i can't forget this either… Before the fake sick excuse… An article was written suggesting RJ was struggling due to him making up for Brunson's bad defense…

    There's excuses everywhere. Coddling everywhere. And when you don't know where to look.. Ole reliable. Blame Julius for being a dark cloud on the team.

    The man who made the all star , & all nba team despite his season projection being lower than RJ's.

    Despite Julius being the 3rd most doubled team player in the NBA with no floor spacing teammates…. No stretch 5.. No pick n roll action… Just double teams and tough jumpers.

    "Well Julius is doubled allot because he's a bad passer out of doubles"

    (despite Julius having no floor spacing teammates) Julius is also ranked 3rd in creating out of doubles

    Only Giannis and Embiid draw more doubles than Julius… Only two League MVP's ahead of him… 1 is a champion as well.

    Giannis has multiple stretch 5's around him…. Wing shooters… Stays with an all star caliber guard… Brogdon to Holiday to Dame now.

    So much is wrong with the Knicks and Thibs petty self is in the way… RJ is in the way.. Leon is in the way…

    Mark Jackson eventually making his way into that coaching seat along with Magic Johnson potentially owning the Knicks is your only hope knick fans.

    Here's to another year with a new addition Nova Boy Donte at 6'4 to play sleep over with Jalen and Josh

    To year 5 of not giving Julius spacing and gaslighting this man until he burns out and ruin his career staying too long with the Knicks like Melo
