R.J. just had a strong 1st half.

13 points.
4 rebounds.
1 Assist.
1 block.
5/10 FG (after starting 0/3 finished 5/7).

Only 41 1st half points allowed?

Our Defense looks 20x better without Evan Fournier getting abused out there. Our D looks like 2020 Thibs D of last year when EF gets DNPs in favor of a HUNGRY and Defensive focused Grimes.

How quickly you forgot. It was Julius Randle, Derrick Rose and R.J. Barrett who came up big time towards the end of the season and R.J. was balling.

Where was your boy Evan Fournier @? Big piece to a #4 seed and playoffs for the first time since 2012-2013 or no?

😅F🤣O😅U🤣R😅N😅I😅E🤣R.

Where you a fan of Evan Fournier on the ORLANDO MAGIC too? 😁

They gave up 41 yesterday as well.

All our Knicks will get it going. No need to separate our roster. Knicks are Knicks

But agree, RJ is one of our best players and our future.

How can fans harp on coach Thibs for not playing younger kids?

Then aso for coach Thibs to play a 29 year old Evan Fournier over a 21 year old 3rd year #3 pick overall out of Duke R.J. Barrett?

Head scratching and confusing.

Thibs finally benches Fournier for our ROOKIE DEUCE MCBRIDE and instead of being happy? Someone had to bash RJ.

I see our starters are going for the second half collapse version of losing games they shouldn't lose.
