Really nice win today. If you are advocating trading Randle than you haven’t watched the Knicks this season. He’s been great all season long and deserves a ton of credit for making a major leap from last year. He will probably fall off but he’s played at an all nba level this year.
Just for arguments sake what are you looking for in a return for dealing Randle?

I dont see him falling off, its not like he is shooting crazy numbers from 3, the assists might fall a little bit but i dont think the scoring will..
and with Obi back hopefully Randles minutes start to come down
To start Q and play him 25-30 minutes a game, get Burks healthy and play Toppin with Q rather than Payton. And then hope Julius can continue this play.
But even if they play .400, as long as the young guys are progressing, and adding another lottery pick, the Knicks might be on to so something.
Toppin, Q, RJ, Robinson is their young core and the average age is 21 1/4.
and drop to 6-6 on the year. Every little bit helps.
They're not that good. Doncic has to carry them every night for them to have a chance. 36-16-15 tonight and they still got blown out by the Bulls.
Looking at the box score, their roster is absolute trash. KP is back but went 0-7 from 3. If anything were. To happen to Doncic this season, that pick will become a very good asset
Barrett sucks. He has no handle, no finishing ability, no shooting ability. Awful.
I’ve been saying the same thing. He literally does nothing great. Not a great shooter, not a great passer, not a great defender. Hopefully that changes but I just don’t see it.
solid pro and not all star. It sucks, but as others have mentioned his lack of an elite skill combined with ehh shooting will keep him from the next level. That said getting to the basket and finishing is a skill and he does that really well, its not an easy thing to do in the nba. I know he doesnt do it with highlight reel dunks so you dont say "whoa look at the athleticism" but he still does it. He can 100% be a starter on a contender, but he just isnt going to be your lead or second guy.
im prolly still taking him. Maybe im taking deandre hunter, but thats it. People will point out herro and thats fine, but i guarantee you that Herro doesnt look like this if he gets drafted by the Knicks. If anything he looks more like this year Herro where he has been asked to do more as the Heat have been missing guys left and right, and this year Herro has numbers pretty close to RJ's.
but he can carve out a really nice career for himself if he can continue to improve on defense. He has the size and body to do some damage defensively, although I don't know about his lateral quickness to say he can be a great defender.
He greatly improved his free throw shooting and it's possible he may develop other areas of his game over the next few years.
That would be great. Anything is possible. The odds of a 20% 3 pt shooter becoming a 40% 3 pt shooter are slim. If they can package him for an established scorer (Beal, Lavine) you make that move without hesitation.

He went 19-10-3 today. Slow down on writing the RJB nba career book please.
Read my next post after that one.

Love IQ. Kid is just so smart on the court. Going to be really special.

Nice to see Obi get his mojo going a bit today. And Quickley continues to completely change the pace when he’s out there
They're not that good. Doncic has to carry them every night for them to have a chance. 36-16-15 tonight and they still got blown out by the Bulls.

They really didnt do much because they were saving up for Giannis and then Giannis resigned

Thanks for posting. Mr. Personality!

I think he'll be a solid pro and nothing close to being worth a 3 overall.
It's fine. The NBA is full of top 10 pick guys who never came close to justifying it. Look at Noel. It's just how the league works. Barrett's useful.
He greatly improved his free throw shooting and it's possible he may develop other areas of his game over the next few years.

Stay far away. Culture killer and he's just not that good.
Probably not
