Around the NBA 3/24

Anthony Randolph starting in place of Kevin Love, he looks great right now vs. Dallas.

After 3 years in the league, he still looks like a talented rookie. He's playing well tonight because all he has to do is use his physical talents, but that open back door just highlights the mental game not being there.

19 points and the half isn't even over. Man did D'Antoni mess up with him or what.

This was the one guy I really felt upset about when the Melo trade went down.

He had the potential, just needed the right conditions and opportunities to grow and develop.

Even if he flops, his reputation would still live off potential so he would have been worth a 1st rounder at least, instead of being used to salary dump an ALREADY EXPIRING 50% ANNUAL SALARY ADVANCED contract. Or so I thought...

23/6 at the half?

I'd much rather have Randolph playing center out there for us right now than Jeffries.

Imagine Randolph scores 40-50 against Dirk? The media would rip us even more

My god nothing changes as a Knicks fan. We get **** on so much when we are down. The Nuggets dominating with our old players, our team struggling, and now AR showing his potential.

Agreed, whats the list at now for players that are deemed not good enough for the knicks but play well with other teams, somethings not right.

Zach Randolph
Anthony Randolph
Darko Millicic

Feel free to add

Notice how he hasn't shot a single three yet? Although here in NY he was chucking away trying to impress the coach because that's what the coach likes chucking.

Alright, Randolph is on friggin' fire.

Jstarks3 · Post #15 » by **Jstarks3** » Fri Mar 25, 2011 2:11 am

29 and 10 and its not even the 4th q yet.

IllegalDefense · Post #16 » by **IllegalDefense** » Fri Mar 25, 2011 2:13 am

damn imagine their team if rubio actually plays for them, and they draft a SG

Rubio
SG
Beasly
Randolph
Love

that would be a fun team to watch, although they would need some size up front for defense

Leeroy Jenkins · Post #17 » by **Leeroy Jenkins** » Fri Mar 25, 2011 2:14 am

You do not know how much I want to punch Mike D'antoni in the face right now.

czoneny · Post #18 » by **czoneny** » Fri Mar 25, 2011 2:15 am

coach has to ****ing go, how many talented players is he gonna give away for dirt cheap because they can't play in his gimmicky **** system?

evevale · Post #19 » by **evevale** » Fri Mar 25, 2011 2:15 am

Whenever Minnesota has decided to play Randolph, he's gone off. Granted they won't get an effort like this on a consistent basis, the potential for him to go nuts on high caliber teams is impressive.

RHODEY · Post #20 » by **RHODEY** » Fri Mar 25, 2011 2:16 am

Mike didn't;t force the trade, Melo and Dolan did. Perhaps some angst should be directed their way...
