OFFICIAL NYk '22 offseason thread, RJ extended

Randle and Cam?

I expect a game changing player in return ...

That's an AS and 12th pick????
I mean with Randle's salary, you're either throwing in a draft pick or a cheap player in compensation.

Fournier's contract is a lot on top of Randle's.

Grimes is a 3 and D guy which they probably wouldn't want to part with.

IQ is also a cheap contract but he gets minutes and with Kemba essentially being banished/washed, Rose only playing limited minutes and McBride will probably get more minutes but probably not enough to displace anyone.

Cam is the guy Thibs didn't really desire and his PT fluctuated game to game even with guys being out due to injury. So I think he'd be the one gone.
 
Grimes went from untouchable franchise cornerstone to a ceiling of Deshawn Stevenson in a matter of 30 days.
Between the subliminal hate some of these cats have for 1 anothet and the blatant Im not going to answer, agree and Im going to disagree without mentioning that person **** some of these lioness have here ... that's how **** goes ....

It is what it is ....
 


It’s gonna be highly unlikely that Cam would be needed to move Randle’a contract. Despite the tumultuous season, he’s still a commodity on a reasonable contract.
 
randle and cam is not bringing back an all star

i dont even think i care tbh. send him home to Dallas for Brunson. this team plays dramatically different without Randle. dump Noel's contract, resign Mitch, trade Randle and Burks for Brunson or another PG, and call it an off season. we dont need to make a splash. we lost a lot of games bc of piss poor FT shooting and didnt have a PG all season. let them young guys play and we'll be straight.

No need to bring an AS back for Randle, true. He just needs to be gone & hopefully for a move up in the draft.

No need for Brunson at this time neither but I won’t be mad if that happened.

If any of the kids need to get dealt 🙏 IQ is the 1st sacrifice. And blame coach for it too.
 
Which again, if Randle and Cam are dealt to a team I EXPECT a game changer .....

At the end of the day, with all the turmoil Randle has had, he still was an AS last year and put solid numbers which only 2 others put this year last time I checked.

Cam cost us a 1st rounder so if he is sacrifice it has to be for something not just ****s and giggles to move a decent contract ...

Anyways ....
 
Portland just seems like a perfect destination. Since they have 2 picks potentially in the top 10 (unless Pelicans win the play in, they get to keep it) I really do think there is a trade here.
 
the fact is that randle is almost an impossible sell as an upside currently

if he actually ends up getting dealt, best believe we’re taking a hit in the form of a draft pick or young asset

no team is gonna bite on the potential of his AS season with the showing he just put out

he failed as a player, a leader, and an ambassador for the franchise

cant imagine anyone dumb enough but the lakers wanting desperately to improve to bite on him with that new deal
 
The financial flexibility is true. With the new CBA these are not bad contracts at all. Tradable without adding firsts for sure.

Bet your bottom dollar that the players are going to get shafted in the next CBA. Owners are absolutely going to win this time. (Thank your boy Ben Simmons) :lol:

Sorry but signing Julius Randle does not make us financially flexible. It’s literally does the opposite. We’re stuck. We’re gorilla glued to that deal unless a literal miracle happens.
 
The teams that will bite, he won’t have near the workload or expectations on and off the court that he had here. Plus I’m 100% sure whatever team he goes to, he’ll have a much better season.

Break up needs to happen. Don’t think we can salvage this relationship. Once the poor effort and terrible body language started, everything went down hill. You didn’t even hear a peep from his teammates giving him praise. Not a good sign.

Ben Simmons soon come :nerd:

But seriously his contract is the going rate for borderline all stars. Look at the others in the same group.

But he’s not a real All Star tho man. He’s not good enough to be a star.

So those comparisons mean nothing to me. Give me a bunch of those dudes who are making less than Randle.
