He might be a rook but off these last 2 games I could Thibs saying I've got nothing to lose by starting IQ over Payton for game 1.
Been waiting for the Knicks to pick up a lottery talent with a late round or second rounder, IQ might be that guy.
I don?t want to play musical chairs with the guards all season. If IQ is the goods let him loose and see what we have
Maybe Thibs doesn't put the pressure of starting on the kid right away and it probably doesn't matter if IQ gets most of the minutes between him and EP. The kid has confidence, is bball savvy and makes the right play and EP can't shoot it like this kid can.
