Randle has way more game n tricky moves than Baker, I didnt buy the face injury report.
Plus Sasha shouldve been our 6th man off the bench playing alongside of Jennings ..
Randle n Holiday shouldve been receiving spot minutes off the bench throughout the first half of the season, and when midseason arrive Randle n Holiday should be given consistent minutes to rest injured players.
Lance Thomas inconsistency on both sides of the court need to be traded ASAP.

You didn't believe Randle had a broken bone in his face??? This sounds a bit like a conspiracy theory.

He has been wearing a mask for about 2 months. What a ruse.

Yeah what a great tactic for trying to get back into the NBA. Wear a mask that messes up your vision thus reducing your chances of getting picked up. That's pure genius.

Randle, darling of the Knicks’ preseason, obliterated the Texas Legends in a 132-124 W-Knicks victory, dropping 38 points on an absurd 9-11 from three.

Did he say 9-11?

Great game. But he was shooting under 30% from three for the season. Not making many squads with that type of inconsistency.

Randle had another good shooting night. 7 of 9 from 3! Dude can flat out shoot the 3 ball. He's not really inconsistent IMO. I think this is injury related and if he's getting healthy then he's that kind of player. He's a legit scoring guard and his history proves that. I'm hoping he gets called up soon.

Randle is 16 for 20 on threes in his last 2 games. That's good! He would actually be a nice tandem with Baker if they both can work out. They played great together in the summer league.

So what I believe is that this guy can't come and take minutes from Baker, he has been playing well. But what I would like to see is them playing together, Baler being a pesky defender while Randle being a shooter, they complimented each other well in preseason. Imagine having two sets of guards in Jennings and Rose, and Baker and Randle that have complimentary skills to one another. Maybe they can be something for the future who knows.

No he doesn't have to be the guy but he Definitely can beat LT on wide open bricks. Plus where is all this bad defense about Randall is about in preseason he stole the **** outta the ball and played great defense ...people also claimed rose was a terrible defender , dude is a stud on defense when he wants or can be..

Jennings goes out with rose out then Sasha becomes the starter, no Baker.
Baker is his back up.

Baker should get minutes ahead of Sasha as currently as it is developmental.

Randle and Baker played well together in SL and preseason. I don't think the question is who is better, but, will Randle fit on this team. That answer based on his limited run is yes.

Maybe we let go of someone else then. But it's tough to rely on so many undrafted free agents. Kuz, Baker, Ndour, Plumlee, and now Randle? When the roster increases from 15 to 17 next year, it will definitely be helpful to take a flyer on more of these guys for sure.

Well, I think Baked passed his audition...again, so it would need to be someone else preferably a guard to keep roster balance. They should just make Sasha an assistant and be done with it.


agree with this approach to keep him around for KP and Billy's sake
