Randle, and  Ntikilina look like trash out there, Randle shoots way to many damn jumpers for a PF, get yo ass in the paint.  Fizz got everybody shooting jumpers.  Pathetic.  It look like freestyle street basketball, Fizz fucked up Trier trying to get him to be a PG who distributes when his name is get buckets ISOZo. Couldn't hurt to see what Iggy got, he looked good in preseason, stop playing Barrett 40 minutes when the game is lost and see whats on the bench.   My GOd I thought the coaching couldn't get worse then the last crop of clowns we had.  Please just fuking hire Mark Jackson and try to save this ratchet season.  Lastly why the fuck do decent Knick tickets still cost close to $200.  TO SEE WHAT?????

I am still bullish on Randle but players like him need the perfect locale for the team to be succesful.

Thus of course if it came down to it - if Julius is producing and we are LOSING, dealing him (and please do not say his contract has no trade value) becomes an option.

Problem is Morris is 5 years older than Randle.

Morris hopes the next contract is his last and last team.
He'll be looking for a 4 year deal.
Taking him from 31-34.   Length and size of that contract will be influenced by stats this season.

Randle is slated for $19M next year.
Morris will try for around the same.
Are you really going to lock up around $40M in two fairly good PF's?  And they don't seem to complement each other.

Don't expect them both back.

Since this is another lost year of youth development if we can get a first rounder for Morris we should move him.  The more picks we can stack the better off we will be when opportunity arises.

And Morris is a SF on this team. 

I don't mind a deal (see my Randle remarks) - but not just for deal's sake.  Would be silly to watch Morris continue his fine play/leadership and then not try to keep him if a wise deal doesn't surface.

Again - depends on the offers.

Define a wise deal.

Fizz’s seat may not be hot yet, but it’s definitely warming.

A similar result against a depleted Detroit would raise the temperature a few more degrees.

Sad.

It was a lost season before the season started.  Sure there was some hope but most here predicted less than 30 wins.

Yep, a development and evaluation year.
Which is why I think it's silly to declare Fizz on the clock.
He seems a pretty good development coach.
Though we are learning his warts.

With that said, if the Knix play ultra-crappy during this weak stretch and have a goddawful  record after 18 games  ...  well, Fizz will be on the hot seat.

Morris is an SF for us, but that makes him more foul prone.

Do the Knix employ a sports psychologist?
I think much of our roster could benefit . . .
