* Why exactly did the Pistons not re-up Christian Wood? Anyone?
* Kyrie Irving bought a new home for George Floyd's family.
* RJ Barrett has his ups and downs, but he has no rear gear. Always moving forward. Impressive.
* Coach Thibs, given his rep for being so tough and demanding, he is a very thoughtful and nurturing person. Notable during our losing streak, how he didn't hit the panic button, nor throw any of his players under the bus, but without sugar coating shit, put a positve spin on things, supported his players in their evolutionary process, and motivated them to keep grinding, as with RJ, and his faith that the shots WILL COME, and with everyone that no matter whether or not the fruit is falling, WHEN YOU HAVE A GOOD OPEN SHOT, TAKE IT. Likewise, when most Knicks fans saw Julius Randle only as a trade piece, Thibs saw him as an impact player and a leader, and built his confidence through the roof. And Elfrid? Even Bernie Sanders wants him coming off the bench, but Thibs keeps faith with him, and his play on both ends, has been getting better and better, his shitty 3 point shooting notwithstanding. Mitch? He lit a fire in his ass, suggested he needed to see him put in the work, and Mitch responded. And RJ. KEPT FAITH, KEPT FAITH....RJ responding with two of his best games as a Knick against the Celtics and Magic.
* PS: RJ is what, 20-22 in FT shooting over the last few games. IMfuckingPRESSIVE for the third player in a two man draft.
