I appreciate Randle getting us to the playoffs but I am not interested in just getting to the playoffs. I don't want to extend him and I am not even sure I want him coming back after his contract is done. Building around him will keep us in the middle of the pack. Too good to get generational talent in the draft and not good enough to get past the 1st round.

The Hawks showed how to defend Randle on Iso. Knicks really need to trade him this summer and get assets. Or next year will be rough as we struggle to make the play-in while Rose is stuck hurrying to try to lock up Randle to a max

Yeah because watching Bullock and Rose get circles run around them is great

What about Frank isn’t good at basketball do you not understand?

He’s a pretty good defender. Sure.. but he can’t create his own shot, get to the rim, or shoot consistently enough. His handle sucks, and although he’s a decent passer, he has horrible feel for a PG where he dosent know when to create or shoot the ball. He’s not going to be in the league next year man ****s not that complicated. No hate...he’s just not good enough.

Bullock and Rose been creating on offense I suppose

Oh yeah and we need to go back to salary cap hell to give Randle a max extension too

He was the worst star in the playoffs. Scared unsure of himself and back to the turnover machine he used to be.

Thibs was a disgrace in this series. He stuck with his guys but got schooled.

Great season. Proud of the boys

This season meant a lot to me, the year we've had outside of bball, it was just so great to follow the team and get a boost from something nearly every day and have something to focus on that wasn't covid related. Disappointing playoffs but a great regular season ride.

We need upgrades at PG sign Lonzo (his lobs to Mitch & OBI will be epic) and we need sniper wings who can sling it .Keep finding gems in the draft ,RJ will be even better next year so will IQ & OBI. Randle carried us all season in what was the best season since 13' so I can't turn my back on him. This was his first PO , Kobe was shooting air balls in the POs because Shaq did not want to shoot. I say pick up his team option watch his play if it is the same as this years regular season up to the All-Star break extend him .This team overachieved Vegas had us at 22 wins , how many times do they they get taken to the cleaners ?...Great season GO Knicks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mitch was a big big miss. And agreed great season
