The thing we will miss from Randle is shot creation. Bridges does not do that well and so far it does not seem like Kat can either, but I am not an expert on his game yet.

KAT is a better passer in the limited action I saw. I believe he will top his career assists with us, just needs time

I trust this front office and Thibs knows what they want.

When you think about adding both Shamet and Ryan you are not only adding very solid 3-point shooters but you are adding 2 guys who will create really good off-ball movement, cutting and spacing.

I think they value Shamet over Walker and think I read somewhere they don't like Walkers catch-shoot vs Shamet (not sure on that point).

Yeah, low usage, quick release guys who move around a lot to create deep space.

Could be they like what they see with Dadiet and he’s already on the roster. TJ is still with the team, sort of. He signed with Westchester

Quentin Grimes is making more than Deuce...now. Let that sink in.

I understand betting on yourself but getting 27mil guaranteed is huge for someone who has not really played well in the league yet. He can easily be out of the league in 2 years depending on how much talent joins from the draft clases.

4th year team option doubled his salary this year to 4mm, about what Deuce makes.
I will defer to his agent who I hope knows what the hell he is doing. Grimes has to get playing time then execute.
That Dallas offered him a 3yr extension does speak they like him and want him.
I suppose playing with Luka, Kyrie and Thompson will offer him minutes when they need healing time.
Playing with HOF's, even if one or two at at time can make you look good. Grimes will get open looks.
He has to do better than he did here. I wish him well!

Why A.J. Griffin left basketball: https://sportsspectrum.com/sport/basketball/2024/09/30/aj-griffin-nba-gave-up-basketball-follow-jesus/

If ones heart and soul is not into the pursuit of an NBA career then he is making the best choice for himself.

Knicks-Bulls about to make a trade? What's going on with the tea leaves?

We already have the Arch 16 with Tyler Kolek. Maybe the Wolves can find a spot for him after they trade Randle.

It’s really odd watching Randle try hard with Minny. This was always my complaint when he was a Knick, he never really played hard unless he wanted to. I guess he wants to now

He going to be playing hard a lot more often. He can sign an extention. So this is basically a contract year for him.
