Swiss army knife?
He can't run the second unit,
Can't create his own shot,
Can't play off the ball b/c he can't shoot---
...and finally, Knicks play 5 on 4 every game with him on the floor -- all his 3 pointers are ridiculously open...

not only did knicks pay him instead of IQ, but as you said, Thibs is playing him as if he's a rotation player.

The FO needs to fix the bench this season and look to move on from Randle this summer if possible.

It’s an issue that Thibs is either in or out on you and he doesn’t leave room for a change. When Grimes got taken out of the lineup, that was that

Perhaps this is why we haven' t made the obvious moves for Murray or whomever....maybe they are actually considering a bigger trade involving Randle right now.

i wouldn't trade for anyone we have to give up too much for right now. a lot of you seem to think we're closer than we actually are. murray will help but the knicks need to save their assets for someone better.

I’ll take it. A win is a win but 6-2 is so misleading. The only good win was against Minny. We beat Philly but Embiid first game back, looking like a senior at the YMCA and still dropped 30 on us.

I just hope the FO don’t say hey we’re 6-2 and can stand pat. We need a follow up move bad.

we still blew out philly by like 30 though and did a good job of making things difficult for maxey. i don't think you can discredit that in my opinion. i think we are a better team with this trade.

but i agree we need a follow up move bad. i said it a couple games ago that over relying on brunson and randle doesn't seem sustainable. both of them injured already and you're starting to see randle's effort get worse now defensively and on the boards. i think we have to pull the trigger on a dejounte murray trade and i dont even like him like that.


Lol funny I don’t like him that much either but want us to trade for him right now

I'm gonna go in on Grimes in a way I only go in on players I believe in that are letting me down. This motherfcker has GOT to stop playing so **** soft. He's hitting his shots again but he's still making the "right play" which means passing open shots and drives for a player he perceives to have better position. Perfect example in Q2 today when he took the lane and tried to pass in traffic to Precious instead of taking the floater. Well... refs missed the call (Magic touched last) and Precious missed the ball and we got a jump ball at center court instead of a high percentage shot. He needs to take those and I'd limit his damn minutes too until he gets that. He's so close to being the player we need and his own stubbornness is holding him back. Slightly contested shots are always better than turnovers AND they'll open up his passing lanes when defenses take him as a threat. Take the damn shot, Q.

Randle last game: “I was terrible”

Comes out this game and plays even worse.

Leadership!
Thank you, Rick Brunson.
