But if the game is close, I hope JB looks to the other players on the court, as well. Randle hasnt shown a consistent ability to close out games. "Ra,Ra,Ra" wont change that. Only Randle can.

Looks like we dodged a bullet with Lonzo. I wanted the Knicks to sign him.

agree... another 30/15/7 type effort from Jules would be a disaster. Man no matter what folks "find a way"

Cant get stoked about our best scoring option also being a liability in crunch time. If we can get a good return, this would be the time to trade Randle.

Trade Randle! Now there's an idea!

Hope the FO is open to the idea.

Who would YOU trade him for?

Kaminsky?

Funny how guys that want him traded don't have an answer for the other part of the equation.
You can't get rid of your BEST player without having someone that can replace his production.

or "Fire Thibs". no mention of another coach execpt one that has one elsewhere.
Open concept whining. WHere fans want to fix something but can't say what it is.

You speak so dismissively of people who wanted him fired. Yet you ignore that the changes he has finally made is the changes they/we wanted him to make for months now and his refusing to make those obvious changes is the reason why they wanted him fired. You would think the people who knew the right course of action from the beginning would be listened to more but I guess that is not how things work.

This can't be the end game though right?

Your perspective is that you KNEW the right answers a long time ago, you were much smarter than the coach and everyone pro involved, because look, it's working out now?

This is your look into the world? It's just that simple?

I am part of the fire Thibs chorus here. I didn't know the right moves necessarily to make - but I did know we could do a whole lot better.

And I'm still worried about RJ and his development, though the last couple games he's played like the player he can be and should be as the 3rd pick.

Maybe guys finally started to listen. Maybe Thibs tried a different approach - but putting McBride out there has been huge, and tightening the rotation- which I knew was likely a problem- and part of that is roster construction where we got a lot of guys that are good at some things, but none are clear cut better.

And when we get pummeled in the first round, assuming we make it, I'm going to criticize the idea that this roster as constructed can be anything better than a marginal 500 team.

But the games are a heck of a lot more enjoyable.

And if they lose tonight, blame me, I finally switched my game picker to a victory.

Listen to Frik and Frak here lol

Two names, Draymond Green and Quinn Snyder. Been mentioning their names all season. Green, pre and post "the punch". But that ship has likely sailed. For this season anyway. With Green's game getting back to where it was, and Curry out. Snyder is available, as far as I know.

You wanted names, you got names.

To keep you both honest, this is what I wrote...

Cant get stoked about our best scoring option also being a liability in crunch time. If we can get a good return, this would be the time to trade Randle.

Wasnt suggesting that Randle be moved without a good deal in place.

That sounds nothing like what you were implying that I was saying. You make Randle sound like the best thing since sliced bread, and question his trade value at the same time.

More than a few posters questioned Randle's trade value this season. Said it couldnt be raised. I wasnt one of them. I argued that if Randle can get his game back, by the first trade deadline. That there should be interest. I still believe that.

Who wants out, who is considered expendable by other teams..dont know. Thats why Id like to see the FO test the market and find out.

Clean wrote:Yall can call it Gold Stars if you want to try and be dismissive because it seems like yall believe whatever Thibs does is right. If Thibs did not do it its wrong until he does then it's right. Since people here say I just make things up or are dismissive of me every time an opposing coach points out exactly what I been saying for months I make sure I post it. I have noticed those posts don't get much replies though.

I will continue to say my opinions and if Thibs is doing good I will praise him for it and if he is doing bad I will say so. It's better than changing my opinions depending on what Thibs does or does not do.

By all means continue to state your opinions. But I suggest you thicken your skin when the opinion that you are full of s#!t comes back at you.

I have not problem with the Randle/Brunson/Barrett attack, but other guys ARE getting looks and the chance of a big game from IQ/Grimes/Mitch/Sims/Deuce/Hart gets me fired up, and I feel like ANY one of them can just start doing stuff, ESPECIALLY when the 3 have it going

This post has no grip of reality.
Thibs won COY with Knicks yet people questioning why "he took so long to make changes they/we wanted". You can't make this **** up.

I am good friends with someone in the FO. Gonna remind him to check with the UK board first before making any future team decisions.

What move exactly did we/they force him to do?
Grimes was penciled in to have major impact because of the chance THIBS gave him last year.
IQ has been good defensively and was given a chance right away in his first year by? THIBS.
Deuce has been great off the bench but played 13 of 52 minutes Wednesday and cats acting like he is the sole reason for our defensive improvement.

You really think I mean someone from the FO to check here? Sometimes the right answer is the simple one. I was clearly talking about posters on this site who even after what we wanted improved the team are still dismissive of our opinion because we wanted Thibs gone. I was literally speaking directly to a poster. So I have no idea where you got anything involving the front office as I never even mentioned them.

Fair enough. .y bad. But what has drastically changed? Deuce playing some minutes?
