NBA Summer League 2019

RJ is too good a ball player in other facets of the game to be a bust. Very effective rebounder and passer. Defense looks solid. Attacks the rim well. Just needs to figure out his jumper.

0-3 after being the favorites to win it all.

For those calling for more of Kadeem Allen... I don?t see anything more than a solid third string PG.

He?s 4-4 from FT line. He?ll rebound from the SG like Wade.

I get why some wanted Culver or Hunter... why some felt RJ not the prolific offensive force others touted... but if past performances predict future outcomes... I?m buying this kid?s future. He?s won everywhere he?s been. He?ll bust his tail to improve. With that, and his all around game everyplace else... he?ll learn to shoot and defend better.
 
Overall team performance was garbage, but RJ looked good. RJ finishes with 17 points on 43% shooting to go with 10 rebounds and 6 assists. His defense looked good too.
 
Summer league stats don?t mean much, but RJ just threw up 17 points, 10 boards, and 6 assists.

Lebron?s rookie season was 20 points, 6 boards, and 6 assists.

RJ has put together a nice effort tonight. Drains a 3 and then next possession finds Iggy for the dunk.
Trey struggled in SL esp in the Utah games that he played in but then he showed glimpses of his ability in Vegas. Started slowly in the regular season as well but exploded after the AS break. Not predicting anything like that for RJ but the light is going to go on for him at some point.

RJ Barrett, who came into Tuesday's game on a 7-of-33 shooting slump in Vegas, hit 6-of-14 shots and a 3-pointer for 17 points, 10 rebounds, six assists, three blocks and just one turnover in 28 minutes.

The shooting still wasn't really there, but at least Knicks fans have a stat line they can get behind from their prized rookie. The Knicks are 0-3 in Vegas and tensions are running high, as the entire team, sans, Summer League invitee Tyler Cavanaugh, went straight to the locker room after the game instead of shaking hands with the Raptors, who were all lined up at half court, waiting to shake hands. In other RJB news, he says he still hasn't decided whether or not he'll play for Team Canada in China this summer. His father is the GM of the team.

Real poor sportsmanship on the part of the Knicks. Rick Kamla was saying that the weight of the city wanting wins was weighing on them, what a load of crap. Just a bunch of sore losers unhappy that they had a supposedly more experienced and talented team and they got trounced.

Didn’t see Nits at the game tonight but they gave plenty of attention to DSJ, interviewing him again, usually stars get that kind of attention. Can’t wait to see this new jump shot he’s talking about.

Saw a YouTube video of Nits working out with his trainer with Fiz in attendance observing his workout. I take that as a sign that Fiz hasn’t given up on Frank. His game still looks the same, he’s never going to be able to break down a defense so he’s going to be an off guard, we hope he makes all his shots like you see in his videos when no one is guarding him.

it is frustrating to lose all these games when we have a second year team like this who were actually starting in the regular season!!!!! i thought we will win each game by 20 or more...... there is no win mentality in this team whatsoever, they don't care...

The Knicks summer league coaching-staff SUCKS !!! FIRE all those BUMS !!!
Every summer league team (except the Knicks) looks to be working hard mostly on improving each of their summer league players passing skills to their teammates. I'm watching practically all the summer league teams passing the ball around 3 to 5 times on every half court offensive possession to find the open man. But Not the Knicks summer league team .. in the Knicks 3 losing games all the Knicks did was pass the ball 1 or maybe 2 times than shoot on every offensive-possession .. the Knicks offense persist of shoot-first system, having to much foolish dribbling, and to many foolish turn-overs because teammates are not expecting the pass from a teammate that has consistently condone the stupid Isolation-System.
The Knicks Front-office has prove the first week of July to be the Dumbest management in the NBA, and the clueless coaching-staff the front office hired could not get a job as a coach assistant by any of the top 30 NCAA basketball teams.
The Knick players need to stop listening to the Knicks clueless BUM coaching-staff who seem to get promotions and bonuses for losing games!

Knox is a victim of the Knicks delusional coaching performing as an individual selfish player having no type of passing-skills in his talent need to be traded ASAP!
Knox silly talent/skills in every lineup has made all 4 teammates look bad during the regular season games, and now in the summer league games.
Do Knox know anything bout the forward position he be playing? He has been clueless of both forward position since we drafted him.

ISO-Zo (aka Trier) need to be playing 30 minute in each summer league game to work on his passing-skills, plus use his speed to move without the ball to get open to receive the ball to pass it again. If Zo dont improve his passing-skills, and start moving without the ball to get open quick, then he need to get traded too.

MitchRob need to start positioning him self at the top of the foul line on offense to receive passes plus work on his passing-skills to throw clear passes to teammates moving without the ball towards the hoop.

Kadeem need to talk to 3 teammates into picking & screening for him on pick&roll and giveNgo passes instead of always passing the ball towards the 3 ball line.

Frank need to keep on requesting for a TRADE asap .. the Knicks Front-Office has prove to be LOSERS, and the Knicks coaching-staff has prove to be LOSERS in the regular season and the summer league games !!!
We will be happy to win 20 games next season.

Travis Wear playing in SL. He should leave the Lakers, they aren't going to have a spot for him. The NBA dream never dies for some guys.
