- RJ Barrett is currently playing in his 4th NBA season with the New York Knicks. In this video we Breakdown his game, to see what his strengths and weaknesses are. And Analyze how he can help the Knicks in the Playoffs. #nba #knicks #nbaplayoffs
Huge fan of RJ, has all the physical tools and upside his biggest weakness is efficiency was at 45% Fg in college now 43% in the league. He & Thibs need to recognize he can’t shoot unless it’s crunch time and play to his strengths of slashing and playmaking fastbreak is his best weapon
He has poor touch and his shot mechanics are very stiff and all over the place.. This holds him back the most. He also gets bad tunnel vision and misses easy plays but he is improving slowly in this area.
well said, but he can't shoot in crunch time either. all in all he is just not a good shooter, and he's had plenty of time to figure some things out. obi developed a corner 3 in one off season. i'm a huge RJ fan too but he's slowly becoming harder and harder to root for. he's also in defensive decline
@@rowstyles coincidentally his real name is rowan, also do you have the stats to back ur claim that he isn’t a good crunch time player? He has multiple game winners and daggers thru the years I would say this year not as much but because his role has diminished due to Brunson
@@rowstyles can’t shoot in crunch time? That’s the best time he is shooting lmao
Teams need 3-point shooting, especially from their role players. RJ should be expected to provide that. That's what Brunson and Randle - who are much better players than RJ - need. RJ's game has weaknesses all over. He can't shoot, he doesn't pass the ball, he doesn't defend, and he has well below-average shot creation skills. He doesn't have the skill set the be effective as a featured player or a role player. He's not good on either side of the ball. So what is he?
great vid, don't really agree with the defensive points but the rest is solid. i've watched every game so far this season! they can be hard to root for sometimes but i love the knicks
RJ Barret is a classic high-volume, low-percentage one-dimentional scorer. His best skill is slashing to the rim and he uses his good size for a wing, solid built, and good handles. The issue is with efficiency. One is that he lacks burst of speed that so many great slashers and scorers at the rim have like Ja or Edwards or LaVine. He is SLOW at getting up and this causes him to miss at the rim or get blocked because defenses have time to react to his drives. He is good at drawing contact and getting to the line, though. But even that skill is diminished by his low % shooting from the FT. His outside shot is also suspect - he has limited range on the 3 - he needs to be right at the line and he often jumps a bit forward to make his shots and his shooting is extremely inconsistent. He can go on 20-30 game slump shooting under 30% from 3 and then go and shoot 40% for 20-30 games. But inconsistency is always a negative. And his defense is outright bad - his lateral quickness is bad and his instincts are bad. He somewhat mitigates it by sheer effort. He really wants to play good defense but he lacks physical gifts for it. And he has a ton of confidence and positivity, which is generally a big plus. His court vision is kind of limited but his rebounding, for a wing, is very good. SO, overall, he is very flawed and I doubt more experience will mitigate most of his inherent deficiencies. I think he can become even more craftier with his finishing around the rim, especially with his right hand and become even craftier at drawing fouls. But he will never be a guy with a good efficiency. And I don't see him really developing as a passer or a defender.
Well said!
@@buzzerbeater3350 thanks!
@@mrvk39 Trade RJ for Jerami Grant
great vid
I think he just bulked up too much in the offseason now he looks slower and putting on more muscle messed with his Jumpshot too. His finishing has improved tho. He needs to find a balance.
I think so too….he needs to go back to his original weight 2 seasons ago
Ya'll forget that before he got hurt he was averaging 45% from the three. I'm almost certain he's been playing hurt or he's at least not 100% physically. And yeah I think he bulked up too much as well.
he playin like a all-star right now
Then, traded. And the poor Knicks fans sayin he’s toxic weak player🤭
Tyrese maxey! He's quietly become one of the better late first round picks in recent memory and is still quite underrated.
Wrong place
@@emprrah lol
@@emprrah ??
Iq I think would be a great breakdown for you 2 do next
Star J Barrett
this is an extremely fair analysis from an RJ fan, considering his play-off success has your option changed on his scoring potential?
Great breakdown on his tendencies
He came a long way from summer league RJ he’s gonna keep growing we’re in the playoffs reaching the semis the farthest we reached in a long time plus we got JB it’ll come together
Barrett has been attacking the rim more often, I think he's finally getting it.
Attacking but not finishing
@@nofg3159 Yeah, a bit sloppy. But I think it's an improvement? Better than settling with jumpers.
@@ElTuco84 here’s my question why isn’t he dunking. His layup package is suspect at best. Dunk the damn ball.
He always attacked the rim and he is getting craftier at finishing with his right hand and drawing fouls. BUT there is only so much he can squeeze out of it. He lacks burst, so he cannot just elevate and dunk over guys like Edwards or Ja - he is always forced to be a very creative finisher and this results in a lot of blocked shots and point-blank misses. This will not really change with experience.
@@mrvk39 the guy is a righty. That’s pathetic.
Yea so basically his offensive is one dimensional due to the dependency of his dominant hand. He has to work on his handles, passing, and shooting range. That way the Knicks can open the floor up for Randle to do some more inside work instead of settling for threes.
He is, actually, doing pretty well finishing with his right if defenses overplay his left side. His handles are excellent. His issues are totally NOT what you describe. It's A. lack of burst off his first step - both on offense and defense B. Lack of speed on his elevation at the rim (he has no problem getting above the rim but he needs a long run up to it - if you watch him regularly you would see what I mean) and this limits his efficiency finishing at the rim - he misses or gets blocked A LOT and C. inconsistent shooting - all sorts of shooting - FTs, 3pt shot, mid-range. He can go through these 20-30 game slumps where he shoots 30% from 3 and then go on a 20-30 game run shooting 40%+ but overall he lets his team down with lack of consistency.
You can't trick me Leon Rose
RJ Barrett finished w/ 19 pts, 8 reb, 3 ast & 1 stl in 31 minutes during 2023 NBA Playoffs: Game 3 victory over the Cavs 99-79
Work on the vertical ⭐jay and keep playing with length on them layups ⭐💪
God is good
The Knicks have seen enough of RJ. 😂
Most people forget that thibadeau chose too give randle the green light on the team instead of barret, just like morant and zion got their green lights too score and ball out on their teams.
barret literally takes the same amount of shots as randle and brunson, also ja and zion are significantly better players than barret
This isn't true. RJ is getting a ton of plays drawn for him by Thibs. His role shrunk only this year with the arrival of Brunson and it's because Brunson is so clearly better at everything than RJ. RJ had plenty of chances and he has work ethic and the right mentality.. but his physical limitations put a ceiling on him as a star.
What does that have to do with him working on his game. I don't care if Coach tibbs gave Randall the green light, that don't mean you don't work on your game. RJ has regressed significantly since he's been in the lead, that has nothing to do with coaching, he's a grown man learn how to play basketball.
Thibs needs to play him to his strengths, then h'll take off. Of course there's things he can work on himself too.
RJ in my opinion, has not been 100% healthy for most of the year. Before he went down with that injury a few months back, in the ten games before he went down he was averaging 26 pts a game 6.2 boards and was shooting nearly 45% from three. Because I remember the last time he was playing this bad, it came out later that he'd been hurt and hadn't been really honest about it.
Jalen Brunson next
I think he could be a left hand jimmy butler they both good two players
Tbh I rather have him over Zion only because Zion is always missing half the season
dude you sound like ian mackaye
Asap and Riri
Lol my guy. They were happy with his play hence he being thrown in every trade to get D Mitch. They only gave him the extension to make him feel wanted they were ready to move on.
Lot's of R j Haters
he lacks of post movea
RJ has chance to steal the spotlight away from guys like Zion and Ja let’s see what he’s going to do.
He need to steal a layup package😂
He's been a bust as a third pick but if teams want to stop him just play his left
Barrett has been frustrating to watch this year. since his rookie year, he's shown no improvement on any aspect of his game, at times he's looked worse. the team/coaching staff has to hold him accountable. its clear he hasn't worked on his game at all. this is basically his rookie year, part 4. his lack of awareness and lack of urgency is what's bothersome. i saw shades of this last year and i wanted him gone in the offseason. this reminds me of when Amare was still around and contributed nothing. its early, yes, but its time to move on.
Trade RJ for Jerami Grant
I can tell you don’t watch lol. RJ is terrible defending the pick and role. He’s slow on his feet especially going around a screen. Idk if it’s him putting on weight but dude can’t stay in front of majority of players. Also his offense hasn’t developed in the sense of his rookie year. Dude has no bag off the dribble and puts his head down on drives to the basket, at times it feels like he just wants a foul and doesn’t care to play make. He definitely needs to come back after this offseason a much better player because if he doesn’t it’ll show that the money they payed him was a dumb decision.
One of the most inefficient volume scorers relative to league-average efficiency in the history of the NBA, doesn't pass, and doesn't defend. There isn't much to like here.
He’s only 22 years old….most young players are inefficient
@@nygiantsfan84 yeah but he’s inefficient because he can’t shoot and can’t create space to get to his spots in iso situations. Kevin Porter is just as inefficient but you can clearly see the upside and offensive versatility in his game opposed to RJ. Both young guys.
He’s a really good defender and that’s what’s saving his reputation
@@Maloman05 He's a below-average defender and most defensive metrics capture that. He doesn't provide much help, he's often late with closeouts, he repeatedly gets burnt on backdoor cuts, and he ranks in the bottom of the league in isolation defense after a strong season in isolation defense last year (albeit small sample size both years). He's been bad on both ends of the court the past two years.
@@dtp_drip2659 thank you for stating this. I don't know why people think that Rj being equates to him still having upside.
How good????? The title should be how BAD is Rj 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Damn you got the whole squad laughing 😐
@Washington Commanders RJ is Westbrook without the entertainment value.
@Washington Commanders On 100 shot attempts, but to be fair I don't doubt his ability to take that many FGAs in one game! Cheers.
Where is he bad?!!!!! He’s only gonna get better from here on out
@@nygiantsfan84 if the Knicks want to become a contender next year RJ needs to be traded
He's average
Get rid of him please. He is poison to team not share the ball
he's not good at all
