Wsup Dark .... Randle is the #1 player the Knicks have to trade to make it to the 2nd round of the playoffs. Either trade Randle, or reduce Randle playing time minutes to less than 30 minute a game. Which none of the Knicks 3 head coaches have done since signing Bully-ball Randle.
So Trade Randle .. Why?
1) Randle is useless (no skills) in a uptempo offense & defense.
2) Randle & Brunson one tempo half-court offense where the Knicks opponents have time to set up their defense on practically 85% of Knicks offensive-possessions.
3) The last few games, every time Quickley & Grimes tried to speed up the tempo on offense, they were stopped by Randle or Brunson to keep the tempo slow.
4) Plus when a player plays 10 or more minutes in every quarter of every game (And their not a super-star) you will rarely see them be a part of a running uptempo offense or fast break offense, especially in the 2nd half of the game.
RJ Barrett has improved his offense performance to scoring on fast breaks, and half court one on one scoring. Barretts defense isn't as good as Cam Reddish, the reason Reddish should be Barretts backup.
Grimes & Quickley should be the Knicks 48 minute SG next season.
McBride is the Knicks Charlie Ward for opponents like Trae Young, Mitchell, Garland, Kyrie, and Curry.
