Keep an eye on Ron Harper's kid who plays for Rutgers.   Could be one of our 1st round selections.
Rutgers is 5 - 0 !!!

The next John Battle!

Thanks for the heads up.
I'll tell my father, a Seton Hall alum, to check out Jr. Harp and these Scarlet Knights.

Rutgers is 5-0 and has won each game by double digits. They are for real.

Rutgers has a team worth watching if you have the Big 10 Network. Their PG Jacob Young is pretty good too. They have this big man Myles Johnson underneath who eat rebounds. A Senior three-pt gunner in Geo Baker, and a 6-6 Freshman PG off the bench in Paul Mulcahy who averaged a triple-double in High School (the first NJ player to do so in 26 years).

Can't believe Quickley didn't get any minutes in Game 1.  We need shooters and he's one of the few we have.  Play him now.

Cool beans.  But as I have mentioned he isn't a PG

Undersized shooter.  Sort of like that feaux Mormon that once wore out colors

In other news - J Lin still hoping for a shot with someone as he works out with G League Ignite

Hmmmm....

[kidcarter8]

And in other other news.....

LOVEDDD Kenny Sky Walker.

Ok, I tried.
Thanks for your efforts, Josh.

Good idea.

Genuine factual discussion without personality clashes and trolling.  Revolutionary.

Just caught a few good plays by Halliburton.
Jumped a passing lane and took the steal all the way for a jam with two guys chasing.
Then next play drove right and bounced a nice pass around his defender to Whiteside underneath for an easy bucket.  A good find.  In between, he made another nice read on D to prevent a pass to the corner off a GS drive.
Looks mature and active and locked in on both ends.  In good shape.
Just saw him out there a few minutes of pre-season, but he looked like a player.
(haven't seen him shoot yet, but he was making an impact).

Otherwise DeA Fox looks mighty fast.

Thank you, to each of you.

We'll do the best we can to make it work.

Halliburton with two nice drives and dishes to Richuan Holmes for layups. 3 assists in 10 mins.  Though TyH also has 3 turnovers I didn't see.
Just pre-season and guys like Oubre are notably going maybe 70%.
But TyHal looks like a player.
I'm also a Rich Holmes fan.  That could be a nice 2nd unit hookup.

Whiteside looks good for Sacto.
9 & 7 with 3 blocks in 10 mins.
Wouldn't be surprised if he becomes their starting C.

[kidcarter8]

Good to finally see Tyrese, I agree.

DeAaron Fox is one of the guys to watch in terms of taking that next leap this year.

Sorry, Bo - I am a Wiggins guy.  Fits nice with Dubs.

Fun game (damn - should have taken Curry - so much fun to watch)

[bodiddley]

Random fun game.

Nico Manion competes.
Good to see a redhead out there too.

[FWK00]

I didn't sense any frustration at all.  He was just giving an NBA 101 lecture on how things get done.

That's not to say that we can't use a star - only to point out that Thibs was not advocating anything more than sound player  management principles.
 
However and more concerning, Hahn had a FB chat tonight in which he suspects that the Knicks  are committed to developing DSJ and Randall (at least until further notice).  It appears that Thibs and co. have put in quite a bit of sweat equity in these guys and want to see it through.

[bodiddley]

I think Chip laughed at me when I was interested in Marquise Chriss.
Pre-season, but he dropped 17 & 9 in 19 minutes.  3-4 on 3's. 
He's bulked up a bit and now often plays C at 6'9".
I didn't really get to check out his D, but his offensive game looked pretty good.
Just 23, only 8 months older than ObiT.

[bodiddley]

Btw, some Guy named Kyle was 6-10 on 3's & hit the game winner 3 as time ended.
A good way to endear yourself to your teammates.
Kyle Guy was the Knix #55 pick in 2019, then flipped to Sacto for the rights to Iggy.
KG is listed as a 6'1" 167 pound SG (from Virginia).
But he can shoot.
