Or if he's not playing right now.

I have an idea - let's start the bench unit to start the 2nd half

Obviously lack of a PG is the big issue here too

Fans in the crowd, not clutch, emotional and can’t “move on to the next” & his mind probably not peak. All while doing it in NY. Pressure makes diamonds & Randle ended being a shiny rock. And not the type from Uncut Gems.

you should have to suffer through randle in person!



Melo deserves to see a Randle performance like this anytime he goes to a game.

Too bad I saw him destroy the hawks in person!

Not because Harris is better, because he might not be, in sum of skills.
And Harris' contract SUCKS.
But Harris will play like a regular 4 in the NBA.
None of this trash ass Randle and Thibs using him this way

Ya'think? Will Thibs will "play" Harris "like a regular 4 in the NBA" rather than forcing everything through him since he's on the biggest contract?


I don't think how Randle plays is all Thibs.

It's half Thibs, in that Thibs sees Randle having on ball skills as a good thing, while we all see that SOME Randle on the ball would be ok.

Harris' game just isn't like that, so I think it would stop.

Get Brunson in, Harris, and the Knicks would at least play normal NBA basketball.
I mean, they could trade Randle and start Obi and that would work too, but that's not happening; Randle would have to go for some large contract player.

I dunno. Maybe if that big rumored trade between the Kings and 76'ers happens, Knicks can get in the middle and trade Randle to one of them.

re the trade: who knows. I don't really see why either party needs anything from the Knicks, but it's a dark market.

On Harris: probably he doesn't PG the ball up the court, but I think it would be very sticky in his hands in the half court. Ofc, if the Knicks get Brunson then nobody else gets a chance to dominate the ball too much - which would be a sizeable improvement.

But IQ can’t be a PG


He might be better than this version of Kemba, or how this version of Kemba is used by Thibs, but no, he's really not good at it.
He's ok. He makes some nice plays. He might get good at it at some point, or good enough, and I think in part it's a credit to the Knicks to try and get a 6'1" SG to learn PG.
But a lot of times he's kind of bad.
Then again, Thibs offense is really awful, so who knows.

You don't trade a 21 year old like RJ bc Randke sucks


RJ is not a star caliber player. You can wish it in your brain, but it won't make it true.

True.

If the Knicks got Harris but not Brunson, Harris would resemble all the things that were bad about Melo, but with less talent and more cost.

Welp, this will be the move that happens then, obviously.

What was the point of trading for Cam? Burks can just stink it up game after game and still gets his 27mpg.

This team would be so much more enjoyable if Randle, Fournier, Burks, and Noel weren’t here. We literally should have done nothing in FA.
