The only thing to learn from this is he is not the man to build a team around. 


Never was

Doesnt mean we should get rid of him

it really is hard to overstate the magnitude of the disaster so far

it is a disaster

Julius Randle is 13-54 FG in this series (24.1%).

It’s the worst FG pct by any player in the first 3 games of a postseason in the shot-clock era (min. 50 FGA).

on the positive side, a 2-1 deficit isn't anything catastrophic, should he wake up and show that the regular season was not an aberration


*** OT: a little Frank would be a good idea

Well everyone is entitled to a bad game or 2, but JR is 0 for 3 when it really counts.  The only thing to learn from this is he is not the man to build a team around.  Better now than learn next year.

NONSENSE.

Knicks fans spitting on JR makes me sick.

He is having a nightmarish post Season.  There is no way to sugar coat that.

But he ain't alone, number one.

We are going into Game 4 tomorrow.  Did you front runners think we were going to win four straight?

Other than D-ROSE, where are our PGs?  And Rose has been inspirational, but 39 minutes a night?  What does this tell us?  And Rose is more of a scorer than a facilitator.

Nevermind that others have been up and down.  Never mind that Game 1 could have gone either way and that Thibs' end game strategy was to insert an ice cold French Frank and to have Burks inbound instead of tasking him to shoot.

We dominated the fourth quarter of Game 2

Atlanta dominated the second quarter of Game 3.

We and our roster of roll players ARE NOT IN THE PLAYOFFS WITHOUT JULIUS.  No credit to Hawks D?  Don't resign him.

FUCK YOU.

PS: In the 1947 World Series, the Cardinals took the Red Sox in 7.  Ted Williams batted .200, so I guess they should have bailed on him, right?

Bunch of front running pussies.  We got here as 15, and we will rise and fall as 15.  Julius is having a crisis of confidence and the Hawks are bedeviling him.  And Knicks fans are bailing?  DAMN FRONT RUNNING WEENIES.

Need to feed Randle early - and for that ELFRID PAYTON is the best starter

I'd start Rose at the off guard, bring Barrett off the bench.

I don't see this. It's no great challenge to get Randle the ball early.

But I do think it's wise to get Barrett involved early. He had a tendency to vanish occasionally during the season, and we're seeing it again in the playoffs. That said, your idea of starting Payton and Rose is intriguing. And Barrett may come out with a little more fire if he's unexpectedly benched.

Reminder - game at 1 PM today

Why do we get 3 days between games 1 and 2 - then 20 hours between 2 and 3?

Yep!

Amen to that.

Though if we're talking about curbing Trae's mojo, Rose and Frank would seem a better combo.

This disaster will make at least one happy forumite: Mr. Utley, AKA UNO.

Congrats, Mr. UNO!

For what? Calling it as it is?

I don't hate the Knicks. I just know that the Knicks fans, like most NY fans, always overestimate their team's abilities, and underestimate the loathing their behavior brings about around the country.

That said, it ain't over until the fat lady does her thing.
