When I initially heard what he said, I understood it as Minny being perfectly fine with anybody other than Randle taking the last shot. I don't think Edwards, or Minnesota, wanted specifically RJ to take the last shot but as a long as it wasn't Randle, they can live with the result. If they had to list the players they did not want taking that last shot, RJ would be 2nd or 3rd(at worst) and Randle would be by far #1. So, I don't think he was taking a shot at RJ and he was really just emphasizing how focused they were on making sure Randle did not touch the ball.
I’m not mad at Edwards cause he wasn’t lying there. Maybe he should’ve kept it to himself but he was saying facts.

He should come back. Just be replaced as a starter. A wing quartet of RJ, Bullock, Burks and a starter is nice. Then sign or draft a starter level pg. And find a stretch 5 with your second rounders. We're goos.blueNorange wrote:3toheadmelo wrote:
this is one of reasons why i want bullock back, dude does so much for the community. he does a lot for bipoc and lgbtq communities.
he's not famous, he's poor in terms of nba money, and yet he still uses his platform for good.
other reasons is that he's a great defender, 40% 3pt shooter, and he and randle have great chemistry.

Doesn't need the ball, doesn't really want the ball in fact, shoots the 3 fairly well, can navigate screens and move off the ball, and defends well besides the rare match-up where he gets bullied in the paint (Kawhi and the like).
You can always upgrade the roster but the only significant upgrade is at point guard.
The Knicks can make all the roster moves they want, if they don't address the PG situation, they will be moving in circles.

Wikipedia has Noel's parents as both being from Haiti. However it has Pelle with Antiguan, Lebanese and US heritage. The Lebanese bit would be an explanation of the French-ness.

I feel like it would have done wonders for KD's legacy if he and Kyrie were able to get the Nets a chip. But he, Harden and Kyrie? Meh, it's expected. A little less expected than him and the Warriors but meh. He'd have to be a real loser to lose with that squad.

Norman Powell would be an upgrade over Bullocks and moving Bullocks to the bench would give the Knicks some legit shooting off the bench.
The question is, is that enough of an upgrade to spend 20+ million on?
