Adding Anthony Randolph is like adding Bill Walker or Andy Rautins. He has no value. He's the 12th man on the team for crying out loud! I can understand not wanting to include Landry Fields because he's actually productive but to continue to cry over Randolph is a little ridiculous. I don't know what more prove you need to admit that Randolph is a total scrub.
Randolph is far from a scrub but that is the role he will be given in NY so he might as well be traded. I think he will blow up in his next destination and if I am Denver I insist on him being included in any trade with the Knicks. Randolph will get no run from D'Antoni so Walsh needs to either trade him or insist that D'Antoni integrate him into the line up. Walsh has always supported D'Antoni so my guess is Randolph is on another team by the end of February.
Based on what? I wish I could see what some of you are seeing here. I see very little basketball talent (no post game, weak jumper, does nothing special), no fire in his belly, no IQ and no motor with Anthony Randolph. 
This clip is against nba players and isn't a Lavor Postell highlight reel.
I think it is easy to forget that he is coming back from an injury and might need to get some time on the court. I hope in general the team is patient with Randolph and Buike. Today on the Fan they were talking about the Knicks waiving Buike so they could sign a back up point.
Warriors' Randolph has ankle injuryEmail Print Comments7 Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif. -- Golden State forward Anthony Randolph will be sidelined perhaps two months or more with a serious ankle injury.
Randolph, a second-year pro averaging 11.6 points and a team-leading 6.5 rebounds in 22.7 minutes per game this season, underwent an MRI exam Monday on his injured left ankle that revealed a tear of two outside ligaments in the ankle and a sprain in another ligament. He also has an avulsion fracture where the muscle pulled away from a piece of bone, which had prior damage from a previous sprain.
The Warriors said Randolph will wear a walking boot for three weeks and then be re-evaluated.
"I expected it to be a long time and it will be," coach Don Nelson said before the Warriors hosted LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday. "I wouldn't call it season-ending but it's pretty close. A couple of months."
Randolph left Friday night's 108-101 home victory over Sacramento late in the first quarter with the injury. Randolph collapsed to the floor after Tyreke Evans missed a driving layup at the buzzer and lay on the ground for several moments before teammates helped him off the court.
Randolph had been making positive strides and was given more responsibility recently. He had started the last three games and was averaging 13.7 points and seven rebounds in his three outings prior to getting hurt Friday.
"You'd like to see another three months of him playing consistently and see what he could become this year," Nelson said. "It's a bit of a setback for him. He was moving along nicely in the maturation process. I enjoyed watching his progress."
During Randolph's absence, the Warriors will rely more on Ronny Turiaf, struggling forward Vladimir Radmanovic and sparsely used Devean George. Before Monday, George had appeared in all of four games for Golden State and hadn't played more than two minutes since Dec. 14.
