Your work is ALWAYS appreciated. Thanks. Reading about RJ is like a breath of cool, fresh air. His desire to improve his game and become the best player he can be shouts professionalism! When his self improvement plan is completed, he'll only be in his mid-twenties---entering the prime of his NBA career. In my far distant youth, when the Knicks competed for and WON championships, Clyde got most of the media sizzle, but Willis was the foundation of those great teams. He was a rock. I see that potential in Barrett. The team needs other players to come and shine at MSG. However, they already have their future captain. His competitiveness and character will lead the way.

Thanks Jonathan! I agree with all of this. It's all about the pieces he can add to his game now. he work ethic and demeanor are there, and in some ways, that's the hardest part, at least when you already have his skill base to build off of
