Chasson Randle to Sixers

If we claimed Randle and dropped Ndour, nobody would be knocking on Ndour's door. Why does he even have a roster spot? He's shown absolutely nothing.

MAYBE OT and I understand the BFS is rawer than ever, but I don't get the doom & gloom as a rational thing. K.P. should cause a sea change going forward.

Eventually we'll probably surround him with a good to great team and enjoy years of prosperity -- at least relative to now.

Tank or no tank, wins/losses now ... there are teams that are doing better and have more picks that we are AT LEAST not far behind because of K.P. For example, I think Boston is a good team with a big stash of picks, but they don't have a single young player as valuable as K.P. yet.

K.P. represents a bright future so to at least SOME extent, sit back and wait for the future. Who will eventually be the guys that form a young nucleus around K.P.? Interesting to wonder in general, and should be more fun for some of you than it appears to be.

Some chance we could surround him with bad players for many years, sure (or just have bad luck with injuries), but there's at least a good shot that we will get him 1 or 2 co-stars who can form a very exciting future team.

Also I think we may have a pretty good one in Hernangomez already.

Since when is Chasson Randle the next Stephen Curry to this forum?

Chassis is going to be good on the Sixers, but we had to keep Sasha because he has an in with Phil.

Sasha is a practice shooter. He lights it up in practice.

well he's young and intriguing while we have old and uninspiring Sasha on the team so, I guess its reasonable for people to want to see him get a chance here before losing him.

Sasha is a mentor to our european players. Never overlook things like that.

those guys are better than him in ever way so, whats he mentoring them on, how to ride the pine. I'm not buying it cause they were pro's before they got here and his no American culture guru. Kristaps was mentored by Melo and HE'S been here long enough to mentor the others. You don't get mentored by a bum

We might as well close our Westchester gates if someone who is balling there can not even get a try out over a deadweight like Vujashİt, I dont like these stuff cuz its not a good look to all the yoof there who wants to make it to the big boys with Knicks, Damien Inglis must have lost some motivation if he ever dreamt of being a future stud next to KP, he is still our ticket to save us from Lance Thomas earning minutes DAMNIEN SAVE US FROM LANCE

is there roster spot restrictions to giving someone a 10-day deal? if not, then why didn't we give the kid a shot?

maybe there is something bigger in play? Bledsoe and PJ tucker for rose and o'quinn + draft pick. god i wish that would happen.

Sixers signing Randle so he can rain 3's on the Knicks on 01/11/17, plus they see that Rose and Jennings have slippage vs quick guards and worse verse shooters like Randle.

The thing is it took Ron Baker a while to play and play meaningful minutes and Randle even if signed might be stuck behind
PG-Rose/Jennings/Baker/Vujacic and then Randle, 5'th down in line, not very encouraging for his chances unless injury

^100% El Poochio it would make me leary of joining any NY run D-league team. Why would you when we've shown that playing well won't get you a thing.

Question: I though him being on our minor league team gave us his rights? If so, how can he sign with the 76ers.

EchelonNYK · Post #74 » by **EchelonNYK** » Mon Jan 9, 2017 8:10 pm

Only Knicks fans would lose sleep over the dismissal of Chasson Randle with a guard flooded draft on the horizon.

Considering how Chasson's name is pronounced I'm wondering if the correct way to say Ass has always been Ace

No way, only his rights for Dleague I believe, with new CBA this wouldnt happen though we would have had his NBA rights too

You can say the yoof will come just to make it to NBA like Gallo Chasson but then just change the name to Westchester 76ers and I will shut up, or punt on some other prospect like Gary Payton II to show this is all about equal opportunity around this development league, but we are still stuck with Vujashİt while a division rival can give try out to our star Dleaguer, the way it is is the classic Knicks tease of course

Don't we have 15 guarante'd contracts already? The way the Knicks have operated the last few years, knew they were not going to just cut someone to bring in a 10-day guy

I can already see him going to Sixers, winning 3 titles, becoming MVP, getting into HOF, and hitting 2025 ECF Game 7 buzzer beating winner against us of course

VUJASHİT WHY ARE YOU HERE

Watch on YouTube

He signed a 10-day contract with the Sixers while Phil is still crying over his breakup with Jeanie Buss. Regardless if you don't think Randle would play much or has a lot of upside, he is still better than Sasha on our bench. PERIOD!

Since89 · Post #79 » by **Since89** » Mon Jan 9, 2017 8:52 pm

Galloway is terrible

Plays on a team with 0 guards and still can't separate himself, still shooting under 40% with a 1:1 ast to turnover ratio LOL :rofl:

billy, kuz, KO, maybe baker. all young guys who can hang with KP. need more punch, but that's a little something something right there.

we weren't sure what we had in KO until this season. he took a big step.
