He is also getting craftier. I don’t have stats to back this up but I don’t find him missing many layups or getting blocked the way he used to. I could be wrong but it doesn’t seem like that. He looks like he’s getting craftier. F’ing A’ though, he needs to improve his foul shooting and get consistent….. and add a mid-range. I don’t even really care that much if he pulls an 0-for from 3 on some nights. That foul shooting has got to be fixed. “Whenever I’m about to do something, I think ‘Would an idiot do that?’ and if they would, I do NOT do that thing.”- Dwight Schrute

Now just imagine when RJ starts converting his layups on a more consistent basis. Still good for a few rushed misses per game. |

![]() Not a good spot for us on the road against a team that owns us and we’re 2 games under .500

![]() Great. Just great. We're 5.5 games back of the 6th seed 76ers and now we've gotta play Miami on the road.
I'm not excited for this game @ all and we're running out of time to make a push for the 6th seed. A Play-In would become a real disappointment for us this year. |

I miss those days Awesome game awesome series I remember I was at my grandma's house when I watched that shot go down I was 14 years old and went nuts running around her home. Damn. I miss those days. Indiana Pacers were a real rivalry. 3-3 throughout 6 series of the 1990s. Miami Heat? Cakewalk. 3-1 throughout 4 playoff series 😆
The only Eastern Conference team who ever had our postseason number were the Chicago Bulls and if not for Jordan I bet #33 would've won at least 2 rings. |

We would've eliminated Miami that series without the brawl and ended up sweeping them 4-0 throughout the 1990s. But we wouldn't have eliminated Michael Jordan and his Bulls. We lost to Miami 3-4 that series but guess what Chicago did to them? Chicago made light work of Miami and eliminated them in only 5 games (4-1). That 1996-1997 Chicago Bulls team went 69–13 (.841) We would've battled and fought that Chicago team as we did during the regular season that year and probably took them 6 maybe even 7 gsmes who knows but unfortunately we could never truly eliminate Michael Jordan; which is why Ewing and NY went 0-5 throughout 5 playoff series vs. MJ ala 88-89, 90-91, 91-92, 92-93 and 1995-1996 (where they destroyed us 4-1) and I'm sorry but 1996-1997 would've been no different (just 1 year later). The only time we ever eliminated Chicago was 1993-1994 when Michael Jordan was playing baseball and strike 3 vs. the curve ball; while Scottie Pippen took us 7 games. 1996-1997 wasn't our year. Even if we eliminated Miami we would've ran into MJ23 and gone 0-6 vs him instead of just 0-5 sorry but that's reality man THOSE WERE MY CHILDHOOD NY DAYS AND I WOULDN'T TRADE THEM FOR THE WORLD. |
