Knicks are 8-11, just after the quarter mark of the season and finished their "hard" part kf the schedule. Now a bunch of home games to finish the first half of thr season.
Better start then anyone of us have thought.
Randle: Looks a little tired towards the end of the road trip, but still playing well, 22 10 and 5 on the season. Turnovers still an issue, need another guy to take the pressure off of him and Rj.
Rj Barrett: Rough start to the season, i was as hard on him as anyone on here, but he has really started to play good consistent basketball. Not settling for 3, making the wide open ones. Still has some things to work on but playing very well as the number 2.
Immanuel Quickley: Still a little up and down, he is a bit of chucker but you love it when his shot is falling and i think it will fall more than it wont. He is not a true point guard but in todays NBA he can play the 1. I look for him to keep getting more minutes.
Mitchell Robinson: Good shot blocker, good rebounder, everything else meh. I think he is good at what he is, i dont think he is some untouchable player, in todays NBA you wonder whats his role..
Obi Toppin: injury has hurt him trying to find his spot on this team, you see moments and go damn and then you see moments and go WTF? & gt; do think his jumper will be mlre reliable as he gets more comfortable, need a point guard to unlock him.
Nerlens Noel: Good for ehat he is, back up big, has some moments you shake your head, but in his role he has value.
Austin Rivers: This is him, some games you are like how is he making on 3 million and some games you are going to say thank god it is only 3 million. I think he brings value to this team and i think he should start at point until Quickley is ready.
Alec Burks: Injiry hurt him and this team, he was rolling to start the season, best 3 point shooter on this team, and hopefully as he gets going again we see that player from thr start.
Elfrid, Knox, Bullock: Go the fuck away.
I expect trade rumors to start swirling because i think Rose and Thibs do not want to give up on this season and as long as they are close to the playoffs, they will make moves to help make this team better, i dont see selling off of vets
Yeah, the Quickley/Rivers/RJ combo is very effective.
No wonder you want him to start!

Plus 1000
-Turning the ball over in the paint and on rebounds under the basket
-The shit-dishes he gives out when he gives up on a whirling drive to the hoop
-completely quitting on transition D
-missing badly under the basket (a no-no for a numbers 4
Again, I like the player, but is it so easy a decision to give up a player like Toppin whose game compliments Beal's game (command of the ball) over Randle. Randle's numbers might actually make the deal cost less interms of picks.
Honestly, I prefer to keep Toppin, but Im not 100%. Randle has a more polished game, but Toppin offers a different dimension athletically.
I happily admit that I was wrong about his early season struggles and associating his college play with what he would do in the pros. He is playing VERY GOOD basketball.
Truly didnt see us being winners in that deal given how KP was playing with Dallas and how bad DSJ has been for us. But that Dallas 1st rounder is looking to be a serious chip at this point, tho its early.

Knicks make the playoffs and draft Cade Cunningham. Make it happ'n, God. Lord knows we deserve it.
