Sims
Toppin
Barrett
Grimes
McBride

IQ 6th man.

Anything else signifies this team is not building towards a better future.

Don’t forget Randle is still only 27. We get stuck in this all-or-nothing mindset where if we aren’t competing for a championship we should trade everyone over the age of 23. This team will still be built around Randle for the future with the hope that we can add and develop significant pieces where Randle is no longer the #1 option. But shutting it down now and playing only young guys is not the answer. There will always be a happy medium. Grimes belongs in the rotation but we still need to compete. Just like last year this team can still adjust and win games.

Randle has shown his starting gig should not be guaranteed. You don't start a man based on his contract. You start based on performance.

Thibs needs to cut the tough guy act and bench this clown. When speaking of the young guys, he says if they play better they play more. No one should be an exception to this. There's no one on this roster that have earned their stripes in this league except Rose who I absolutely love.

Next man up.

He's an All-star who led us to the playoffs last year.

You don't "bench" that.

He’s leading the team in points, rebounds and assists. I get he’s underachieving but he’s still our best player.

Was an all star.

That was then, this is now.

I'll bet any amount he'll never sniff another all star invite.

A non all star can certainly be benched.

43% from the field, his lowest in 6 years.

33% from 3. This guy thinks he's Jokic?

3.3 turnovers a game.

That's the problem here. This is our best player.

I still think Randle is still the best player in this team, his mind is just out of it. He is pressuring himself too much to replicate or surpass last year's performance. Maybe the sleepless nights from his new baby isn't helping.

I still think Noel starts at Center until Mitch's conditioning returns. For now let Randle start but split the PF minute between Randle and Obi, if Randle has an off night let Obi play. RJ at the 3 and Grimes at 2, im still unsure of the starting point if you give it to IQ or DRose.

The team last year thrived coz they see themselves having a chip on their shoulders. Bench walker and Evan and let the kids play hopefully it will spark the team's competitiveness for the rest of the season

Randle is in a funkiest of all funks. He will snap out of it. Having Grimes to pass the ball to will help

Randle needs to go. He’s a poor man’s Carmelo minus the charisma.


I literally am praying for him to get injured so we can go on a run and save the season

Well yeah when every offensive set is an ISO play designed for you to have the ball in your hands for 10-15 seconds you might end up leading the team in statistical categories

In a heliocentric offense model, you just make someone else the center. But it is often hard for player to not be the center of the offense once they have sniffed that.

As much as our struggles have been a product of his poor playing, we're not going on some huge streak without - not with everyone else on the covid list.

He's a freaking troll.

For many of months now I've ignored his every quote of mine. He's quoted me over 50x talking about "Zach Wilson and the Jets" and continues to talk about "Zach Wilson and the Jets" despite my obvious ignoring of him.

Please tell him to stop trolling my Knicks posts with his Jets bs.

And hes now rooting for injury to Julius Randle? Pathetic.
