All that pace the Knicks played w/ in the first half has dissipated. Lakers switching a buch now (a strategy that’s given Knicks trouble on other nights), but Knicks pounding Randle isos in other situations, too. Not getting stops to get running either. Lakers up 22-8 in the 3rd. – 10:14 PM

New for @The Athletic – Talking Knicks with our @Fred Katz – What should they be looking to do at the deadline? Does a Fournier trade make sense? How do they fix Julius Randle? Which young guys have the highest ceiling? And more …

More on this storyline
Julius Randle considers recent trade rumors surrounding him as flimsy as tinsel. After Friday’s practice at UCLA, Randle interrogated this reporter on the authors of an alleged push by Knicks management to trade him by the Feb. 10 deadline. “Who reported it? Who reported it?’’ Randle repeatedly said. The Post reported after last month’s Cam Reddish trade that management considers everything on the table after stockpiling another asset. An SNY report confirmed the Knicks are open to trading the former Lakers lottery pick, but only for a significant package. -via New York Post / February 7, 2022 ESPN’s Brian Windhorst confirmed multiple reports, including The Post’s, that Sacramento point guard De’Aaron Fox is on the Knicks’ radar, with Randle being the only pawn who would make sense in such a deal. The idea has swirled around social media like Pacific Ocean waves. “That sounds like gossip to me,’’ Randle snapped before facing the Lakers Saturday night. -via New York Post / February 7, 2022 Indeed, the Randle trade rumors seem overblown, but it’s worth considering what Randle’s trade value is now that he failed to be named to the 2022 All-Star Game. He’s 27 years old — the beginning of his prime years. “Not now,’’ one NBA GM told The Post when asked if Randle has decent trade value. -via New York Post / February 7, 2022
