In Obi’s defense none of the starters have been all that impressive so far, especially in the first quarter and none showed any real consistency tonight. I’m gonna chalk that up to there being 3 new guys in the lineup (Math Brown Toppin). They are still getting the feel for each other. Meanwhile the second unit is on fire which just happens to be composed entirely of guys who had a whole season playing together. Makes sense to me. Obi is going to find his niche here. He’s got a great attitude and all the physical tools. Also ya gotta remember he’s raw like Aaron and Jalen were last year. The Knicks didn’t develop him properly.

All that being said were also 2 and 0 and as long as the second unit is playing like this I wouldn’t tinker with that. Suppose Rick could see what Walker looks like with the starters but I don’t think that’s warranted yet. Obi doesn’t look lost or anything. He had a pretty good opener too.

Didn’t he have the most impressive leak out dunk of our recent (maybe not just recent) history, in like the first minute of the first game???

And then had like two/three more right after it???

Did you watch the games before posting this?

He’s not putting up numbers but there’s a big difference from last year. You see it with some of the blocks he gets and he actually has the size to switch onto guys like Mobley. Last year Nesmith would be getting cooked in this game
