Then fans need to finally stop that loyalty for the brownie points shyt and stop putting money into the product :ufdup:That's the only language corporations understand.
People been saying this for over 20 years. Dolan and the NBA knows that will never happen. Knick fans are very loyal. Knicks were able to sell tickets in the 2000s and 2010s. They are the NBA cash cows.

If we’re going to commit to Randle, what’s the best Fournier and Obi trade out there for a good wing?
they probably don’t move Obi because even if they don’t move Randle, I doubt the reup him at the end of his contract.

As for trades :yeshrug: whose on the market?

You can’t play Obi 12 minutes a game for 4 years. Unless Thibs is mandated that Randle only play 30 minutes a night which seems like a stretch. OG is really the only wing available right now it seems.

Btw, We should keep an eye out on the Booker and Phoenix situation. I think Leon has the same idea too…

With today's game, you can play Randle at the 5 on small ball and rest Mitchell. The coach just sucks.

Look forward to see to see how Brunson's gazillion dollar contract translate on the court:unimpressed:

...good for Mitch with the re-up:ehh:

NoBODY else is stupid enough to unload that Overpaid Brickplayer off the roster, tho:francis:
You're better than this.

His contract wasn't a steal; it was thebmarket rate for a guy like him.

Why come the press handles Rose and Thibs with kid gloves? Why don't they go in on them for how they develop young talent?

Two lottery picks can't even start. 3 other 1st round picks. What are they going to do with IQ and McBride?

Move Randle for expiring and picks. Start Obi. Just rip the damn bandage off. They are not competing for a championship.
