Horford is a center. Playing him at the 4 is what had Philly all fukked up.

You’re right he would probably see a lot of minutes as a backup Center.

I thought the issues was more Philly didn’t have any good perimeter defenders like the Celtics had. So they were asking to much of him defensively.

offensively Horford can set a pick in the pick-and-roll and facilitate from the elbows. The issue is between Embiid And Simmons they wanted him to be a floor spacer. The Knicks would just ask him to do what he use to do since we know they don’t care a lot about 3’s and are going to run a lot of triangle......

He has the height, weight, speed, strength of a SF.

He’s gonna be like LeBron, Durant, PG, Jimmy who all started at that SG position and became SF’s after their first year or two

Whew... Those comparisons breh.
Listen, the league is taller and longer now. If RJ is bigger and maintains his speed next season, sure, I'm down. But if he remains around 210-15 range instead of moving up to the guys above weights (225+) then he's gotta stay where he is. You play RJ based on what he is, not what you'll hope he'll be

Yall know with the versatility of line ups Rj could simply guard 2-4 depending on switches anyway right? Why yall always turning everything into an argument in here

What else is there to do

RJ looking spry

Is it me or did he get taller too

He was 19 so possibly

 

[23Barrettcity]

R.J. is 6’7, 6’8 and around 215-220 lb. and already shown point forward potential and we still got people saying he’s not a SF.

Position less basketball

Al can play next to a rim running big like Mitch.

Him being paired with Embiid and then a big wing like Tobias who likes the elbow just that overall lack of spacing is what makes him look worse.

PG- Lonzo
SG- Beasley
SF- Barrett
PF- Toppin
C- Mitch

Why are we talking about Al Horford and that nightmare of a contract?

Their is a rumor out there the Knicks are looking to get Horford back when they move Randle.

fukk that. I would rather keep Randle for another year and be done with him. Philly can keep Horford and the worst contract in sports.

I know all the talk up until free agency is gonna be whether the Knicks will take on someone like Russ or CP3, but I wonder if the Cavs are willing to give up assets to move Kevin Love?

at Russell keep him far away from this team

I’m interested in Dragic. Love has three more years on his deal but we know he’s gonna shoot the ball and rebound he’s a good fit with Mitch.
