Why?? Cam Reddish is actually the best shooter of the three.
 
Some will disagree but Williamson will be a star in the NBA. He is head and shoulders above the rest. As much as I hate Duke he is such a pleasure to watch. LEBRON esq

Goes left 80% of time & not a great outside shooter
 
At this point the best thing that can happen is for them to lose by 35.
Simon is the worst perimeter player in high major basketball in the last 20 years.
 
Don't care about the loss. Really disappointed we weren't competitive. Not good for the brand.

I was so excited to be able to watch the team play for just the second time over here. It was clear it's men vs. boys. They are vastly more talented and bigger. Simon's is a horrible finisher. I love Ponds, but this needs to be an eye opener that he can't get his shot off vs. NBA sized guards.
 
The only redemption forthis team will be a Win on Tuesday at Marquette . Use this humiliation as motivation to beat them twice this season . After the 18 minute mark of first half , we lost poise and swagger . Second half , the wheels fell off for entire team . Nobody showed up in next 20 minutes .

I don’t know I just don’t see Barrett doing much against NBA sized defenders
 
"It's a must win because of the following 3 games.
If they go 2-2 that would be good.
1-3 and they'll be on life support.
0-4 dead"

A s I said, if we go 2-2 then I hope one of the L's are again Duke. As much as I hate Duke and rat face, it doesn't go in conf record, conf games are more important even though this would have been a huge resume builder.
Gotta get the Marquette or go on life support, yeah it will be real hard to win there, well they made their own bed when losing to G-Town (who was 2-4 coming into msg.

They have 5 of 6 at home to finish February, if they go on life support, then they'll basically need to win 5 of those 6.
So yeah they gotta win Tuesday, you never want to go on life support.

He will never come close to LeBron. Ben Simmons is the only one who can in my
Opinion
 
I've seen Duke play maybe three times this year and Barrett hasn't impressed me in any of those games. Maybe I just caught him in bad games, but I sure wouldn't want Knicks taking him with second pick.
 
Second bad timeout call by Ponds. Awful game.
 
Muted the TV after the last commercial. I feel a little more relaxed. Dick Vitale is nails on a chalk board.
 
Simmons can't shoot 3's. Zion has the ability to be a solid 3 point shooter( With some development) if he chooses. But his quickness/inside game is exceptional

I’m also worried the Knicks are gonna take him. The Knicks need someone like Zion who has potential to take over the city or they need someone like Reddish who can put up points in a hurry from 3. Barrett looks to me as a guy who could maybe be great but I see him being an Andrew Wiggins type, never quite worth the high pick
