The best part of this is we didn't trade our draft picks away so if we suck its not a lost season all together. Don't get me wrong we are stuck with bums on the roster and that sucks, but at least we will keep our lottery pick. Randle is the worst, gets a big deal and just shuts down.
Burks is the coolest cat in the NBA.

I know it may seem that way. He will be back with a vengeance, it's only a matter of time
Randle is playing terrible. But I have faith it won’t last.

Draft picks are useless because we have no luck and Thibs wont play them anyway.
But unlike Thibs I’d be happy to give more of his minutes to Obi while the funk persists.

You mean draft picks like RJ, IQ or Obi?
Noel makes good shit happen.
RJ can’t be happy right now.
teams know they can come into MSG and get a win, that we'll find a way to let them win - they don't even need to try that hard.
Team is completely disorganized at this moment. Deconcentrated in defense, idealess in attack. We are struggling even against the worst team in the league.

RJ gets good time but he is stuck playing in a starting group that does not fit his game at all. IQ now that he is out of his slump and other players are struggling deserve way more time than he is getting. Obi who is top 3 most impactful player for us is capped at 16 or so minutes no matter how good he plays or how bad Randle plays. Grimes and McBride who gets essentially no time even thought they can score and provide good defense which we desperately need. I could understand them not getting enough time if the players ahead of them were playing well but that has not been the case most of this year.
We want to add more draft picks to that? We have trash luck so it will be mid lotto at best. This means they will just be added to the bench which some fans will freak if you try to use at all.

I'm just saying, Its not like when Phil Jackson was here and we had horrible basketball and no picks. At least this year we have underachieving players, and picks. It's not nearly as bad, just way more disheartening.
