I’m not even going to lie it’s going to be fun watching bkn play meaningful games with kd kyrie & harden and hoping they lose.

I’d rather do that instead of watching elfrid Payton stink up the joint while playing 40 mins.

I'm all for trading Randle on top of his game, but we don't need those players.

There are great and feasible targets out there. I mentioned Sacramento before, but there's clearly a lot more.

In contrast to last year, there are now teams with a use for him.

Houston now has tons of assets and a gap next to Wood.

Minnesota is thin up front and KAT hadthe ability to stretch the floor for Randle.

Denver is struggling and rely on merely Millsap and Green at PF.

Curry needs help with the scoring.

Dallas has a dear need for Randle, but they have nothing to offer.

And so on ...

It's not a matter of needing those players, it's about moving off Randle. The only team you named that could actually use him are the Wolves.

Mavs - They don't want anyone with the ball in their hands not named Luka and play 5 out.
Warriors - They have Draymond at the 4 and already straddled with two bleh players in Wiggins/Oubre
Denver - Bol Bol and MPJ are being groomed for the 3 & 4 and why would they want someone taking the ball out of Jokics hands?
Houston - Just traded for Levert, they have Wall and Wood for scoring and creating.

Randle isn't nearly as valuable as people think, holding out for a first rounder or some quality young players is going to turn up nothing, because his game doesn't fit with what contenders want or need.

Agreed. At least it's something to watch that's interesting.

he wouldn't even meet with us. it's not really that much different than complaining we didn't sign lebron in 2010. except he actually met with us.

I’m trying to think which contenders could use him.

Bucks maybe? (They have nothing valuable to give up)
Heat? (They’re not giving up Nunn or Robinson)

I’m drawing blanks.

Like you said, get some floor spacers and call it a day.

I think we’ve moved from being afraid of teams beating us in trades to overplaying our hands.

somebody tell kg. :lol:

but as far as van felton, it's still an overpay. and if the knicks keep losing like this, who needed to pay him. he aint adding that many wins to make the playoffs. just look at the raptors record.

i mean lets be honest though....FVV is a massive improvement over Elfrid...I think we would be a LOT better. If the goal was to win (which it looks like that way)...if you going to overpay for a guy he woudl have been one of the guys to overpay just to get Elfrid the f*ck away from this organization.
