I know he was heavily touted by many Knick fans. Was he talked about here? Very unimpressed by what he's brought to the table this season.

still too early to tell but he sure looks lost in this game, that's for sure.

Dont get Briggs started

The post is being typed, shaped and edited as we speak.
It will include pictures, visuals, statistics, etc to prove you all wrong.

(Sorry Briggs, couldn't resist)

Rookies do have good games and bad games - and they also get injured - just like any other player. Let's wait until they've played at least half a season so we can intelligently evaluate how they look.

LOL. This topic is dumb but it's no different than when BRIGGS makes a topic when one of "his" guys has a good game.

The Topic isn't dumb. Did I call the kid a Bust? No! I just asked a question and stated the kid hasn't impressed me this season yet. I was wondering what others thought about his play not just yesterday but in general, those who have seen him in action this season.

He did have a 10 point 9 rebound 4 block game in 15 minutes the other night. How can you evaluate a 19 year old correctly until he is done growing and fills out? What you are looking for in a first year player who has come out very early is signs of what he has potential for. I would love to have Jarryd Bayless and he has barely gotten into a game. Both of those players looked very good against their peers in SL. Right now the 6th pick in the draft cant even play the game of basketball.

It wasn't just "the other night" it was like 5-6gms ago. He scored 4pts and grabbed 4reb in garbage minutes final 3:30 of that game against Chicago.


I don't think he's impressed thus far whereas players like Rose, Mayo, Beasley, Lopez, Morrow(his own teammate undrafted rookie), Gasol, and Chalmers... have.


No doubt Randolph wasn't going to be a Top 3 pick but he was talked about heavily as someone we were going to take @ 6.


He has plenty season left to impress, it just hasn't happened yet. I've seen him in about 3gms and didn't see a whole lot from him.


Maybe things will turn out well for him later but his attitude at the Garden the other night won't help.
