Also from NBA Radio this day -

Lakers pasted for taking a malcontent like Montrezz instead of giving a similar deal to Rajon.

You know....the more Knicks dilly dally around the more I get the idea they really like Randle.  They seemingly don't think they are far off in adding the draftees and a top coach to their 20 win team

Big splash?  Sure.  We'll take one if it comes

Maybe we can overpay for THjr again.  (◔_◔)

Knicks have added 3 good three pt shooters this year and some of us aren't happy.

Thank you. 

To be a Knick fan is to suffer. 

And if you can't suffer, you can whip yourself. 

PS: Free Agency AIN'T Over. 

PPS: Somehow I see Teague or Rondo in Atlanta/Clippers.  Still, I would surely count us lucky to have Rondo to be an expensive mentor, associate Coach, in the extension of Thibs mode we are projecting for Taj.

Or there's no market for Randle - even with his friendly salary

Someone’s gotta want him first.

(Dirty little secret: all the reasons NY fans have no interest in watching Randle pirouette his way to another $19 million next season? Opposing teams are allowed to watch Knicks games too)

Now fancy THAT.

So much for the PREVAILING WISDOM. 

Guys who can get you 20/10/3 a night are in short supply.  I really like Randle, but then, I'm an idiot.  Guilty as charged.  But I think he made a positive impact on Thibs. 

And if we ARE going to trade him, and go all Sam Presti, might it be prudent to UP HIS FUCKING VALUE, let alone that of Kevin Knox or Dennis Smith or French Frank. 

At present, not much of a market, not much of a return.  We'd be harde pressed to get a #1 for Julius, and he can play, dudes. 

So for ONCE, not being bullied by the media or the fans, and taking the max our return rout, as oppossed to the OVERPAY FOR PUSSY ROUTE, we're holding a fire sale approach.

I was responding to Kam's assertion we should be happy with our minor tweaks.
To a team that indeed needs everything.

Hell, last year one could have said we added 3 good three point shooters (Ellington, Bullox, Portis).  Worked out great ...

So Knick fans are supposed to be happy that we didn't do anything dumb.
Real high bar to clear.

Maybe next year we can get with the times and just claim we won after every game.
Bribe the official scorer.  Or charge that he was unfair.  Or both just to be safe.  Claim the other teams free throws shouldn't count for some reason.  Put Rudy in charge, he's a New Yorker and a Winner!
