    That is why I would need that information personally, but I do understand I haven't made a career in basketball and I am just a Normalo guy.....

    And they keep information from normal guys.

    See that is also what fans think but it might not be true, other teams have information that we don't.......

    They run background checks on Tari.........lol.

    Also his medical reports (not in detail) are pretty disclosed, non classified and open.

    Just because the Knicks have a bad intelligence system, doesn't everyone else has it too.

    All we know is he had surgery for a benign growth in that leg. He has been well enough to perform at s high level. Now he is experiencing soreness and listed as lower leg injury management. I don’t think they know much and resting him to see how his leg responds. It’s a concern definitely but all injuries get disclosed.

    Jabari isn't consistent enough to be called a high-end roleplayer yet, but he's not far off. If he shows a normal level of improvement as he moves into his prime years, I think that will be a good description of his game. To be more than that, he would have to take a surprisingly large leap.

    He should be getting the open look for 3 when the double comes or reset Sengun up top and have Jabari do his 10ft shot in the post over anyone. It's better than FVV, Green and Sengun launching threes. Instead he's running suicide drills in the corner.

    Be like his 4th time he's gotten over 25. If he can consistently give me 17-18. I'm good with that, but def agree he has to shoot more and stop moving with the ball.

    Jabari's going to be a starter on this team for the next decade.
    Eventually, I see him putting up 20 and 10 or so...
    whilst spearheading our defense with Amen.

    Bari just needs to be more aggressive and confident. He looks timid out there sometimes. Hopefully it’s not a mindset problem and he can grow into a killer.

    Major Key today is you need 1-2 players HOT. I'm saying above 25 scoring. Hopefully it's a full balance, but someone has to have it going to take a commanding nice lead in the 4th. Warriors and REFS will make a few runs.
