RJ balled out and we took the L = win in my book

Our only shot at getting rid of Randle is if New Orleans agrees to a salary dump for Zion. We’d probably have to throw in the Mavs pick to sweeten the pot
RJ scores 46 pts on 60% shooting -> +/- = -3
Randle scores 11 pts on 13% shooting -> +/- = 5
??
What the what?

I’m thinking we would have to include our first round pick for Zion.
That is all I wanted. Correct me if I am wrong but I think Sims might be a FA after this season so they have to know if they want to keep him.

He’s RFA after we make a qualifying offer. I agree. The season is lost and 0.0 reason to play vets like Noel and Gibson
Hopefully Cam starts getting extensive playing time after tonight. Grimes is going to be out for a while

The Mavs pick I would include but not the 8th pick overall. As much as Randle sucks and has a ludicrous contract trading away potentially a good to great PG prospect would be so Knick like
Didn't watch the game but just read that Grimes dislocated his patella??? Damn...thats about a 4-6 week recovery time frame. I would imagine they will shut him down for the rest of the season.
Too bad
A loss is a loss and I hate losing to Miami (24 points off turnovers, 10 missed FTs = ballgame) but it's so encouraging to see RJ have a game like (46 points, 6/11 from three!) that against that team and against Jimmy Butler. And he did this coming off a long layoff and an injury. RJ was phenomenal and really took control over the team and should have finished with 55 or so. The FT is annoying but I'm 110% confident he will correct that in the future. He's such a hard worker and a good kid. His personality is just perfect to be one of the faces of this team moving forward and unless I'm getting a franchise changing caliber player under 25, I'm no way in hell trading him. RJ has a chance to be our Eli Manning, Derek Jeter.
I hope everyone is apologizing to Thibs. I know starting Burks is annoying and stupid but I must admit I was shocked when Sims checked into the game over Noel and Taj. It clearly says we are now going to prioritize developing some of these kids and we will not be chasing that pointless playin spot. Which is the right thing to do! I still wish he would find minutes for Deuce. Maybe he's not ready?!
Sucks Grimes went down. He's become one of my favs and a bright spot in this nightmare season. Thankfully it doesn't seem too serious like an ACL but he'll likely be out the rest of the season. But I think we saw enough of Grimes to move forward and say he can be part of the solution. I would even go as far as saying I'm comfortable with him as my starting SG next season.
Disappointed in IQ. With no Kemba and Rose, the opportunity is right there and he's just not playing good enough. IQ has to give Thibs a reason to play more minutes and he's simply not earning them. Hoping he can pick it up.
We got 22 games left! Let's get ready for next season by putting the ball in RJs hands (and less Randle) and playing these guys and seeing if they can play or not. If we win some games because of the kids, great! If we lose, who cares?!

His season is done. Time for Cam

I wonder if Rose tries to lock in RJ with a max extension this summer. Would be the smart move. Which means the Knicks won’t do it
I didn't watch the game last night but did our centers play 48 minutes without scoring a point? Thats fucked

Great so I have to watch 36 minutes of Fournier playing shit defense and clanking shots for the rest of the season
