Tweet was deleted or there was problem with the URL: ISO Heavy offense is the worst kind. Especially with someone as inefficient as Randle. His good games are not even good games because it takes touches from everyone else and we wonder why everyone in the starting lineup has been cold most of the season. That is why I want to see 2 games with the starters playing without Randle and see how that changes the dynamic and if they player better. |

Thibs isnt going to let his dream job live and die by Randle's shot selection and efficiency. I expect Thibs and Randle to be accountable to what isnt working and what is.Clean wrote:Tweet was deleted or there was problem with the URL: They are def struggling but I dont see anything happening that cant be fixed or get better, and anything that is bad hasnt been happening for very long. There's a lot of time.... it will be interesting if the FO is patient or aggressive. What's interesting is how we are 1 weird season removed from being one of the worst teams in the league and our fans are impatient the season hasnt started with a clear path to 50 wins. I just really hope its not RJ/Obi/IQ for Liliard or some ****. I would be open to an Ayton trade, although Im not sure what that would look like "winning is more fun... then fun is fun" -Thibs

But I'm not sure how he helps. Randle and Kemba aren't going to unlock him and he bumps into many of the areas that Randle already camps out on the court. Also, the Knicks would have to give up a lot picks. Maybe IQ too. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.
