- Julius Randle extension eligible Aug 3rd

I think you have to wait and see how he comes back from the shoulder injury. This could put Randle in a **** mood cuz he moody

Its wild.. guy's a 3x all star in 4 years and Knick fans still cling to those 20 minutes he was grumpy.

Jules is gonna be Jules and that's just fine

Why does everyone ignore that Julius has been historically (all-time) bad in 2 playoff performances.

I believe the stat floating around recently is - Over the past 40 years 573 players have played over 15 playoff games - of those 573 players Julius Randle is the ONLY player to shoot below 35% from the floor and below 30% from 3.

Julius being Julius = Hard to trust the man in the playoffs

This year will tell all. Hoping he can get to the playoffs injury free, and that he can show out. If he stinks it up again, its going to be hard to ignore. But I don't think so. I think with this supporting staff, he's going to do fine.

Jules has run into trouble in the past when he's tried to play heroball. With a stacked squad, and time, the hope is that he wont feel the need to try to win a playoff game almost singlehandedly.

Randle is in a contract year. He has an opt out at the end of the season. He is extension eligible so let's hope this doesn't become a distraction. It is the last piece of business for the off season

So let Randle go out and earn his next payday. Even if he kills it next season and opts out we can use Bird rights.

Brunson/Bridges/OG/Jules/Mitch

fringe rotation/emergency: Sims, Payne, Kolek, Diop

I love how we look. I think Precious could be this year's IHart. I suspect he gets a lot of minutes. He's rugged and a grinder. He can take it to the rack and some offensive skills. He's going to be left alone a ton and I think these find him.

Overall though I just love the combo of Brunson/Randle surrounded by elite shooters and top shelf defensive guys. Gonna be a fun year

The entire roster looks great. It;s obvious but it just comes down to health. This is the nicest looking Knicks team Ive seen in my adult life. They have top end talent, youth, chemistry etc.

At this moment, there's not a single albatross contract on the books. Not something you can often say (if at all) about the Knicks teams of the past 25 years. Let's hope OG stays healthy and keeps it so.

The only one we had from the previous regime was Noah's, and that contract was from the regime before that.

They stretched out the payments for more cap flexibility I guess, instead of one lump sum.

The last couple of years it was EF eating $18m doing nothing on the bench. Before Noah it was Stat. Before him someone else going all the way back to McDyess

That’s why you have to be careful with this stuff.

Playoffs are tough. We saw Brunson have a couple terrible games to start. I thought Randle did a good job last year finding ways to help when his shot wasnt falling. Namely destroying Mobley. He had a tough time w/ Bam and the Heat. I do believe that narrative has shifted.

Anyway looking at this guy's body of work he's earned some patience and shown plenty.

Then he had surgery on the ankle!!!!

But he made a face at us.

Making a face doesn't affect winning and losing. Lack of effort and sulking, not being engaged in the offense or defense does. Grow up.

Ah a personal attack! Sorry to have triggered you. BTW I am making a face….

If you make a face while posting from your mom’s basement, does anybody even see it?

Your mom for one.

Your mom’s so fat her blood type is Ragu

Yo momma so dumb, she put lipstick on her forehead to make up her mind.

Yo momma so broke she can’t even afford to pay attention

Yo momma so fat, she skipped breakfast this morning and the stock market crashed.

Yo momma so black, she got marked absent at night school
