Carmelo Anthony said on the “7PM in Brooklyn” podcast that he is not impressed with RJ Barrett’s game.
The former superstar of the Denver Nuggets and New York Knicks says that Barrett lacks the qualities of great players.
,,He’s just a bland player bro. That’s not a shot. That’s not disrespect. I ask a lot of Knicks [Barrett’s previous team] fans, it’s just like, he’s good, he get it done sometimes, but he’s not an exciting player. You don’t know if he got 4 or 26.”
Carmelo Anthony compared Barrett to OG Anunoby.
,,OG can do the same thing that RJ doing. He just don’t demand it the way that RJ demanded to be a part of the offensive…OG still gonna play defense no matter what, whereas RJ, he gotta score 20. Where that 20 is going to come in now? You are 20, 23, 24, as the third option on that team.”
