Randle is having a career year. Randle is having a better year than KP. No Randle is not the better player.
Let's see how the Knicks do next year in a regular season.
Actually think that current Randle is better than any version of KP. 24/11/6 57%TS. Certainly better boxscore numbers than KP. He is the first option on a team with a 31-27 record. Mavs with Luka and KP have a 30-26 record and it´s not like Randle´s supporting cast is great. He is playing in the weaker ECF and the team plays good defense but he is carrying a Luka like offensive load.
With KP we are still talking about the impact player that he could potentially be if he stays healthy and develops his game. He had really impressive 10-20 game stretches but never played an entire season on the level of current Randle. We assume that the "everything goes right" version of KP is better than Randle but I want to see it before I declare him the superior player.
