Masai really got a great deal for OG when you look at the circumstances and what we got back for an expiring player that showed signs he was going to walk. We still have a pick out if that deal that can possibly still add something to that deal. Let’s not forget Norm Powell was picked 46th in the 2nd round.
As a life long Knicks fan 1. RJ had never been a good foul shoot maker, he’s streaky in every aspect of his shooting. He’ll go 10-11 at the FT line one night at the next 6-12 and 2. Everything you sent by quickly is accurate, including his poor decision-making. The one thing that you don’t realize is his efficiency in two ball range was a lot of fast, brakes and shots at the rim that were made due to pushing the pace. He was never someone who took a defender off the dribble with ease. Every once in a while, he’ll hit a baseline layout or something like that with his first step but his handles aren’t tight enough to take people off the dribble. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed that aspect of this game but as an elite playmaker, you need to be someone who has the ball on string, and IQ does not. The one aspect of this question you missed which was the entire question for the next is what are you gonna pay him and are you willing to pay him 30+ per year or around that? Plus you have to think. Are you really willing to spend the 55-60 million on him and RJ together for the long future. Clearly the Knicks said they weren’t but with Scotti and your youth, it might be a good fit
One of the deadliest pullup shooters weve ever had so his defender has to stay close, can beat his man with the speed, collapse the defense find open shots for others.. this is what ive wanted from a pg forever - or at least since maxey lit us up
What do you think Immanuel Quickley's ceiling is with the Raptors?

Let's not forget Nikola Jokic was drafted 41st in the second round!

PGs and C take longer to develop in NBA. See KLow, JV, Jak, Delon Wright they likely are not polished under 25 like say a 3/D
Thanks 😊
