Would it be crazy to think this opened the door for a Randle trade?

I preferred Mikal first. I loved his defense and 3-point shooting were solid. He's actually exceeded my expectations. Then it was a toss-up between Miles and Knox. Miles appeared to be a 'tweener coming out of college while many questioned Knox's motor. But then there was The Workout. Thank you, Fiz.

I can't imagine that he didn't do this. On top of the evidence, the wife had something in the neighborhood of a hundred million reasons to wait a few days if she was going to fabricate something. This is extremely bad for Miles.

Could you imagine the fiasco in NYC if the team was to bring him here. It would be a publicity nightmare for Dolan (remember Anucha Brown Sanders?).

This guy's voice is annoying (like bad 60s AM pop radio) but he makes some good points.

Oh...and that includes the unreported by men...which is a thing...a sizable thing.

Chanel wants to know about the true shooting percentage in these incidents.

KP had charges on him on the way out and the publicity was hushed up real quick. Honestly , Im shocked that the hornets didnt try and get her as soon as they heard the news, Id be willing to bet there are certain messed up stories we'll never hear cuz the victims were paid off.

KP tried to beat the sh*t out of his tiny girlfriend but she just posted him up and backed him out the apartment door.

Well, hopefully we get good Bi-Polar Julius this year.

thebuzzardman · Post #889 » by **thebuzzardman** » Sun Jul 3, 2022 11:13 am

League wide, but since Julius is here:

Big question is how effective and happy etc Julius plays off the ball and what Thibs does to put him on it, but not too much.
Like, he'll be on it some since Brunson can play off, or Jules runs the 2nd unit a bit more with a different sub pattern.

Firstly, if Julius accepts that and plays that way, the Knicks should be better. Or playing to their potential, whatever the W/L turn out to be.
It makes him easier to move later on if that is your thing, as well.

He's got talent. It's about his mentality and the coaches and him, getting him to adjust on offense.

my preditions for KD/Kyrie

Kyrie and Harris to LAL for Westbrook, THT, 2026 swap and 2027 unprotected

KD to MIA for Lowry, Herro, rights to Jovic, 23+27+29 unprotected firsts, 24+26+28 swaps.
(they would have to make the 25 which they owe to OKC unprotected)

Keegan Murray is like a super saiyan mikal bridges. He makes sense for the Kings since they have a lot ball handlers (Fox, Mitchell and Sabonis)

The Lakers with zero assets can get Kyrie and Knicks with 11 draft picks can't get one superstar the Knicks have zero pull in this league thanks Dolan.

Say what you want about Ben Simmons but he hasn’t requested a trade and he’s working hard to make things right!

Plenty of people have done it for RJ so why can’t we do the same for Randle?

It’s true in a way, but if you haven’t done much wrong, how much have you done well?

It's essentially what the Knicks did by trading KP, which was absolutely the right move - unfortunately for a decent but unimpressive return due to them shedding contracts for capspace.

Knicks fans could take some notes from that.

Massive contracts for inefficient players never work out, except for rare exceptions (e.g. Jrue Holiday as a third option for Milwaukee).

I think the Murray trade is the first domino that will eventually lead to Trae asking out a few years from now.

Murray is a horrible fit, and not a difference-maker. I am for one am relieved the Knicks didn't trade for him.
