It has been a topsy-turvy season so far for the New York Knicks — and it could be even wilder. According to Ian Begley of SportsNet New York, at least one team who have reached out to the Knicks ahead of the NBA trade deadline on February 10 came away “with the impression that Julius Randle would be available for the right return.”

Thibs rolled with the starters for 6-plus minutes as the Heat went up 26 — Kemba Walker, Evan Fournier, RJ Barrett, Julius Randle, Mitchell Robinson. That lineup is minus-11.5 per 100 possessions on the season, but has played the third-most minutes of any lineup in the NBA. – 9:22 PM

Randle airball, Miami 3. Randle loses ball off backboard. Miami 3. It’s 70-48 and Thibs needs to bench Jules with 9:24 left in third. – 9:07 PM

After a Randle airball and then something I can’t describe – pass? Shot? Who knows? – the Heat have expanded the lead to 22. And it’s a Knicks timeout 2:36 into the third quarter. – 9:06 PM

That’s about as bad a sequence as you can get from Julius Randle. – 9:06 PM

Knicks down 13 at the half, which seems as good as they could hope for. Another night where Randle has more turnovers (3) than field goals (2). – 8:52 PM

On the Knicks last possession first Julius Randle and then RJ Barrett tried to isolate Jimmy Butler one-on-one and that is a terrible idea. – 8:09 PM

As I said on the pregame show, this Knicks offense falls right into Miami’s defensive favor
When they begin to spam strong side Julius Randle, the Heat double and rely on rotations
Like they do at an extremely high level
This is their type of game – 7:52 PM
