RJ Barrett needs one more game of 30 plus points this season and Julius & RJ would be one of four duos in the league to have 10 plus 30 point games in a season.

Zach Lavine has 14 & Demar has 24
Jason Tatum has 23 & Jaylen Brown has 12
Lebron James has 29 & Anthony has 10

Barrett has 9 and Randle has 14

Tibs ain't trying to develop him. He trying to win now to keep his job. Toppin can be a 18/10 guy if they develop him.
They are developing him. He needs to consistently hit the 3 off the catch to unlock him. Can't just rely on him to kill of the pick and roll

How is forcing a nikka to do something he ain't good at while not letting him to the things he's good at development? :jbhmm:

Outside of RJ improving, the whole season was clipped the minute Rose went down :francis:

He should be getting more screen and roll action. They should be able to post him up at least a couple of times a night. I love when he gets to run the same dribble handoff play that Randle does all game long. He could be used more dynamically than that corner spot he’s so frequently glued to.

CP from KnicksFanTV said he believes the Knicks have more of a management issue then a coaching. I couldn't disagree with him more. Not excusing management because of some questionable decisions or non decisions but I think they've done a better job than Thibs has. Thibs from the playoffs till this season has not been good & has been exposed somewhat for his deficiencies

What do you guys think?
