awful trade for BKN value wise. they could 100% get more than a couple seconds for Schroeder, but they want to dump him asap because he is hurting their tank.
nice trade for GSW. they have almost too many guys now, but for this price, you have to pull the trigger.

Man. I just took a peek on the MIN board and they have a Randle thread. It sounds exactly like the discussion we used to have here minus the Standle wars. They like he bully ball. and his ability to score some. They want him traded. They hate his defense. They hope he can come around but, yada yada yada. It is identical to our Randle discussions. They just don't seem to have anyone who wants to have children with him over there like we do. :rofl:

Mitch for Wemby. Who says no?

Randle with the matador defense and a stinker on offense.

11 PTS
4-11 FG
0-1 3PT
4 REB
2 TO

Leon fleeced the Wolves. They'd be favorites in the West if they still had KAT.

Nice to see Randle held Wemby to 8-20 FG 1-7 from 3. With a DEF rating of 90 and a net rating of +15. Love to see him play on the other end when his shot isn’t falling. Once a winning player always a winning player!

Some players are born to win basketball games which is why contenders trade for them. Others rot in the cellar of the eastern conference. Very glad to have had the opportunity to support this Knicks legend!

Reid was +26 while shooting 1-10, Randle was only +8.

On the year Reid is +6.4 net rating while Randle is +3.7, and yet again Randle played under 30 minutes. The last 10 games Reid is +16.0 net while Randle is +3.2, their starting PF is just humble to allow Randle to play in front of him for a couple minutes. Like how the Lakers played Bynum over Odom, yet Odom meant more.

Must be nice for Minny to have two winning PFs. It sucks we only had Randle while Obi was trash. Smh!

It's even better to have the 2nd best center in the league and the best in the East. We completely swindled them getting KAT for two role players.

calling divo a roleplayer is a stretch at this point.

Donte is just back to being the inconsistent player he was before he got here, they dumped him at the right time.

Seems like they’re doing alright, 6-1 and the best defensive team in the league in that stretch. Win win for both sides!

Donte was an effective starter for us for 4 months. He's not very good as a bench player at all which is what he would have been for us after the Mikal trade. The decision to include him in the KAT trade was a wise one. He was nothing much before he got here and he is playing like trash since we traded him. I would have loved to keep him but, whatever. KAT more than makes up for what both players gave us.
