Trades? Anthony Randolph has had enough of that sort of thing for one summer, having been dealt from the Warriors to the Knicks as the centerpiece of the deal that sent All-Star big man David Lee to the West. So when his name popped up in a rumor that would have sent him to Indiana for a first-round pick, or as part of a deal that would land disgruntled Portland guard Rudy Fernandez in New York, members of the Knicks brass quickly approached him.
“From everything they told me, right off the bat, from talking to the coaches and talking to [Knicks president] Donnie Walsh, they told me I will be here for many years,” Randolph told SN. “I haven’t been paying any attention to it. But I have been in there every day with the coaches, and they made it clear they want me here. Obviously, anyone can get traded, but this is home right now.”
Making a new home in the Big Apple is an interesting twist to the young career of Randolph, drafted by the Warriors with the 14th pick in 2008. His potential, at times, seems limitless. Walsh described him to reporters: “He’s a guy at 6-feet-11 who can basically jump over the basket. He can get the rebound and bring it down on the break and make a play. He’s gonna dunk on you if you’re not ready for it. He’s got an all-around game that I think can make him an elite player.
