It's the defensive end of the floor where Evan Fournier is drop dead dreadful.

He's absolutely useless on Defense and is a liability/weak like every single Defensive possession.

He should be coming off the bench and shouldn't sniff playing time with our starters.

Taking it down a notch from single-handedly ruining and destroying I see.

We were the #1 D last year.

He's completely ruined and destroyed our Defensive identity.

Got it. So Fournier's the reason Randle's bumbling around like a waste product on D this season? To the tune of being worse defensively this year than a 68 year old Melo?

“Identity?” Defensively we played well during a shortened regular season playing teams still recovering from the bubble and then got carved up by Trae Young in 5 playoff games. It’s not like we were the early 90’s Pat Riley Knicks

Yes. I despise his Defensive abilities/liabilities but since I created this thread he's since had games of 23 points, 32 points and 22 points (30/60 from the field). And I hope he continues to prove me wrong.

But I can't lie. After his 6 points vs. Milwaukee and only 2 points vs. Golden State? I was livid and felt like he was absolutely useless (on both ends of the floor).

But these last 3 games? A+.

No way man. I remember H20 always played with awesome on ball Defense.

Huh? Houston never played defense. He was a great perimeter shooter and turnstile defender he would have fit in perfectly in todays nba

38 minutes of atrocious defense.

And only shoots a pathetic 2/13 (with only 1 assist).

Evan Fournier single handedly destroyed us vs. Washington tonight.

Once R.J. Barrett returns I hope coach Thibs completely removes Evan Fournier from the rotation.

Call OKC see if they will take on his contract

I'd rather call the French team and send his worthless ass back to France.

Not even Orlando would accept him back.

I've always loved coach Thibs but the more he plays Evan Fournier the more I begin to lose my love for him.

Kemba doesn't deserve the Kemba treatment; Evan Fournier does.
