Yeah Ringo was a pretty good drummer. He didn’t blow people away bc he wasn’t flashy but he did stuff with the Beatles that no rock drummer had ever done before. Also his solo album in the 70s is one of the better Beatles solo albums.

It would be great if RJ was the ringo for our team. A quiet utility guy who did what he did well, didn’t demand attention and kept everyone else happy.

How many minutes would RJ be playing if he was, say, the 18th pick on draft and not the 3rd?

I think we all know the answer, and part of it is TNFH’s speculation about trade value. The Knicks front office is hoping some GM out there sees some value in RJ the lottery pick, and they don’t want Thibs “devaluing” him by gluing him to the bench.

They were ready to include RJ in the package for Mitchell, but decided they want to hold on to Grimes. That tells you how much they value RJ.

Tired: Immanuel Quickley would be the runaway 6MOY favorite if he was on any team besides the Knicks.

Wired: Immanuel Quickley would never compete for 6MOY if he didn’t play for the Knicks because any other team would be smart enough to just start him.

It’s like saying “we can’t get rid of Ringo, we need him for his singing.”

At least Ringo was good at something.

RJ is playing 29.2 minutes a game this year, a career low and almost 5 minutes less than last year. Thibs is not blind to his limitations.

All this means that RJ will go off for 25 pts tonight on 16 shots including 3-6 from three and 6-6 from the line.

Nah, he played well on Christmas. Gonna be a few weeks, at least.

We’d be better if we just sat RJ, but that’s just because we’d give IQ 50% more minutes. Of course, we could also do that without sitting RJ the whole game.

There’s no way the best weed in the land comes from Morningside Heights.
