Agreed. However, this team could still do more. We are getting out coached.

He could be averaging double digit assists if he used his head

I'll say this again, ultimately we don't have the horses/depth of scorers to win this series without Randle making shots. You may not like how he plays, but he has been making these shots all year and we rode the guy to 30 wins. To me, today he is getting closer to the looks he was making all year. We have to keep at it with him and hope he gets it turned around because there's really no other way for the Knicks to win. Ultimately your best player is your best player because he makes the toughest shots.

Lololol. He is a PG. Scoring isn't is primary job. Randle and Barrett played better with Elfrid in the lineup. Folks have tht impression that every PG is going to be a Chris Paul like player. It isn't a coincidence that Randle and Barrett are having a bad series. Randle is hangs at the took of the key on most possessions. And I still can't understand why.

And the guy averaged the most assists of any non PG we have had on the team...maybe ever. I think he is being more decisive and finding the pass today. But yeah he needs to knock down some of those shots - because we are used to having him make them. We also could do a better job of spacing out around him when they collapse on him.

Elf sucks no way putting him in would help… Frank would be the guy to put in the game. He would give tre problems with his defense… thibs is doing the right thing sitting elf

He's a PG who never contributed as a playmaker. His only contributions were as a scorer when things broke down. He can't score now. Just forget his ass. He sucks.

Eight point bulge by the Hawks to start the second half. This is about to slip away just like the previous two losses.
