Dont recall Frazier being so passive-agressive about a player in the past. Especially one who doesnt deserve it. Considering his progress this season.

Yeah whats his deal with RJ? I mean that shot was wack and clearly not a shot in his bag but he didn't have much room to operate.

Agree. Not saying RJ was beyond reproach. Made a costly mistake late in the game. But damn, Clyde sounded like just another fan.

Wow. I love it! Enemy number 1! RJ getting his nemesis.

Edwards shows all-around smarts early on and is playing the mental game in his post-game interview. But he has picked the wrong guy in RJ, who is likely to be unfazed by the missed shot, the interview and just about anything else. "Your Jedi mind tricks won't work on me"

RJ does not always make the right Read, and plays like a 21 yr old thats improving, but has a long way to go.

This is actually the 3rd game this season (that i have seen) where he blew it in the final seconds trying to be the MAN.

Yes! I just wish we played Minny one more time this season. Love to watch RJ put 30+ on his head and hold him to 10 pts on bad shooting.

I was going to say the same thing. Players will quickly realize, RJ uses negativity to fuel his growth. There will definitely be some get back. It may not happen soon, but when it does, I will be there with the "I told you so" thread.

Edward's a rookie and already know he is 10 times better than RJ Barrett on both sides of the court, that's why he called Barrett out.
We have to many fans that get highly emotional when u mention any of RJ flaws.
I'm a Knick fan who watch over 20 consistent flaws in RJ Barrett performance in two seasons.
Just because RJ was the 3rd pick in the draft, automatically Knicks FO demanded RJ Barrett receive 30+ minute of playingtime in all his rookie season games (got two head coaches FIRED!).
After watching last season Knicks having Fiz/Miller as head coaches, I wanted Payton, RJ, and Randle traded in the Covid-19 offseason. Why? The non-chemistry trio of Payton RJ Randle kept HOGGING the ball and denying other teammates the ball. And they are doing the same old thing in this season. In our last two games, I watch DRose Randle and RJ deny the ball from rookie Quickley every time he was given playing-time, making Quickley look like he was no help in the offense.
It's all good for the Knicks having head coach Thibs preaching/teaching defense like Pat Riley & Van Gundy to the players, but History still says Thibs is still a 7 player head coach that has no luv for the other 8 players on the roster. There was a strong reason why Butler ask to be traded from the Wolves in his final contract season. Plus Thibs has never been a winning playoff head coach. Letting PF Randle control the offense as a PG for 40 minute a game, knowing Randle best friend is Payton from their previous team NO Pelicans when their flawed performance had Anthony Davis demand a trade.
Putting Frank in the starter lineup with a non-chemistry Randle & Barrett calling all the shots were a setup, being they had Frank on the DNP list for over 25 games.
Denying Knox and Obi 12 minute a game to be in the 2nd unit the first half of the season shows bad judgement on our coaching staff.
To not understand the double-digit scoring from the bench in Quickley & Burks were the reason the Knicks are a .500 team makes me laugh at last night Knicks LOSS !!!
