Imo would be better for him and the team for him to lineup as SF. Would prefer better ball handler at the 2. He also isn't super quick but more of a bull. But at SF he would still be pretty quick while also being strong enough. He is also 19 and already built pretty sturdy. When he is in his 20s he may become even .ore of a tank.

A 1 & 2 with handle and quickness with Barrett on the wing would be my vision personally.

I agree, I can get enthusiastic about him as a SF, but I’m worried if he’s our SG

He's able to play big minutes and not get too worn down because he's very economical with his movements. The downside to that is that he's a bit predictable. Prior to the season he was working on this. Maybe by next year, he'll have gained more wiggle to his game and be more like a lefty Brandon Roy or Clyde Drexler. Those guys were 22 and 21 respectively.

To be honest, I didn't expect RJ to have such a hard time with his FG%... then again, once we start looking at his numbers post-Fizdale, they've been on the up and up.

Definitely starting level talent; not sure about his best position, but he (at worst) looks like a guy who'll be in consideration for an all-star spot one day.

You must not have seen his college games or scouting, cause it was glaring.

I am not concerned and have been happy with his rookie year. His percentages need to go up but I am happy with everything else, as opposed to Knox, who needs to drastically improve his percentages and everything else

I think for the most part he’s producing like most would hope or expect as a rookie.

We might have to upgrade Rebecca to a newer model by the time crew is ready.

Dude!?!?

Ban material right there

Hahaha...I'm just saying...we don't want to hang on to long like the Yankees did with Susan Waldman...no position is safe

He should stay at the 2. moving to 3 would be a classic Knicks mistake (like moving Frank off point). RJ's strength is his version of bullyball which is more effective against 2s than larger 3s

I've wanted him to play sf because we I think we'd be better off playing more small ball with better shooters and ball handlers.

I don't really understand why it doesn't seem like we've down that.

And I don't think it would be a mistake- certainly not in the same league as having RJ start and play as your PG!
