Watch this clip from last night. Randle sees Obi Toppin fall to the floor but refuses to help him up. Can’t talk about being a leader and then act like that…

Tweet was deleted or there was problem with the URL: https://www.prosportstransactions.com/basketball/DraftTrades/Future/Knicks.htm Same issue applies, yet again. Does anyone here want the Knicks young players, the guys on the roster now and the incoming draftees in the near future draft classes, to be exposed to Randle's toxic lazy selfish attitude and current style of insulting zero effort on the court? How do you help to develop young players with this kind of potential 30 million dollar a year anchor around the neck of this team? This is no "stint" Randle's first year as a Knick was horrible. His 2nd year was in a bunch of empty gyms during a worldwide pandemic in a contract year. This third year, coming to a close, is more in line with his first horrible year than his 2nd much better year. Three seasons on this team and it's clear the kind of player the franchise is going to get for the next four seasons. Lazy. Bad decision maker. Low BBIQ. Makes the same mistakes over and over again. Toxic behavior. Selfish. Horrible repugnant example for younger players and incoming draftees. |

29 Julius Randle New York Knicks PF 16.93
Out of all NBA players, takes the 29th most overall shots per game. Has the EFG% that ranks him 422nd. A couple of snippets don't highlight how bad and how toxic that Julius Randle has been for the Knicks this season. And it's not just counting stats, sometimes a player will slump or those shots won't fall, however it's more than that, it's the lazy selfish toxic anti-team bull**** attitude. Of course other teams swarm on Julius Randle, it's not because he's such a lethal offensive threat, it's just that they know he won't pass the ball even when it's the common sense decision and that he will make a low BBIQ play that will result in a turnover or a forced bad shot that freezes out and demoralizes his teammates. And if he misses, and doesn't get the call he wants, he will cry and scream at the refs while, yet again, refusing to hustle back on defense. One or two instances in snippets don't cover the toxicity of his behavior this season. The same question arises, again and again, does anyone here, with full understanding that this team will need to draft and draft well and put those rookies in a position to develop and get better, want Julius Randle and his stupid lazy selfish bull**** anywhere near those draftees? It's not just the poison this year, it's the potential poison for the next FOUR SEASONS AT 30 MILLION A SEASON to risk THIS SAME DUMB BALLHOG SHIT OVER AND OVER AGAIN. |
