To take his game to the next level, he needs to figure out how to score less than 0 points.

It ain't rocket surgery.

Is France missing any key players? I don’t even know


C'mon son! Don't act like you didnt no Frank was out with another leg injury! Seriously, they had no Wemby. Also, Embiid has apparently been flirting with playing for team France in the Olympics.

Fuuuck, you right, my bad. I don’t know how I let that one by

So many highlights are of people driving right by EF.

Evan can guard wings that's for sure. Evan needs to bulk up and be a back up 4 like a Niang.

So that he can do what? Play horrid defense at the backup 4? Get posted up and then posterized at the 4? I don’t get your obsession here.

Why would Fournier get minutes over guys like RJ or Josh Hart in this scenario?

It's not an obsession. Just trying to get some use out of him while he is here. He is a very good offensive player. Might he be able to exploit his offensive game against a 4 and minimize his defensive negatives against a 4 ? Hey I am trying to be positive .. if he can't do it he returns to 13 man, no biggie. Put your rotten tomatoes down.

Thibs has already shown us how he values Fournier and it’s shackled to the bench. The FO will most likely use his expiring contract in a trade, they have all but told us that.

But feel free to keep asking that same question in multiple threads over multiple weeks as you please, nothing wrong with that in my book.

Evan is of course not responsible for the below but he is certainly very entwined with it

Until he is gone I will root for him and all Knicks players. I know the reality of it but I like to root for our guys while in our uniform. So might as well speak something positive to the universe. Light a candle instead of cursing the darkness for Evan.

For the record, who is the best player on the Lebanese team?

Dang. You play who is in front of you and the team whose best player you cant name kept everyone else on team Canada under 17 points....

Team Canada got a good groove on. Team france did not.
Talent alone does not win games, team chemistry matters.
France has the talent and it did not gel.
Canada has it for now. Perhaps not truly tested yet exceept for a good German team thus far.

Brandan Ingram not playing much? Why? Not doing enough away from the ball. Sound familiar?
It should.

On a team full of stars a guy like him does not have to be the man to win. On the Pels he is the scorer. On an “allstar team” there are others that can.

A signature Josh Hart performance today against Greece- 11 rebs, 5 asts, 6 pts, defense, energy.

Kerr picked certain players on this roster for a reason and I just think when you see Kerr and Spoelstra giving all this praise to our guys that it really validates what we are doing from a team building standpoint. Hart is not a superstar, but what he does is just make a team work better. Kerr knows what with Draymond and Hart making 5 position contributions for Team USA.

Did Hart match up against the other teams 4 s ?

not quite a "journeyman" but has been respected by Lakers, Pels, and Blazers for what he brings. Rare for guys to carve out a lucrative career doing what he does. Blazers in a rebuild transition and I get why they moved him. We have seen why we traded for him. He did not come cheap but has been totally worth it. Great Extension of Thibian hoop and the culture.
It all came together nice for Knicks after he Thibs installed his young guys and even more when Hart was bought in.
