“Villanova Dogs and a Domesticated WildKAT... Make It Make Sense..." Official 2024 NY Knicks off-season Thread

[Wargames]

Which is unprecedented for someone who's at most the 3rd best player on the team, realistically closer to 4th-6th. At least when Bosh & Love carried that burden they were undisputed 3rd wheels, Randle doesn't have to do nearly as much to clear his bar of contribution.

If he can't handle that then it's the mental side of things that got the best of him, on the court he's never been better set-up to succeed.

I don’t understand how holding him accountable for his own actions is the same as the initial argument that he will be blamed if the team doesn’t succeed. You’re conflating a good argument for one thing with a baseless argument for another.

He can definitely be a bytch ass but that isn’t the argument being made. The majority of the hate he gets is because he gave the crowd the thumbs down once.

I think he is primed to kick a lot of teams asses this year too. The only issue right now is the Knicks need a reliable defensive center to back up Mitch.

No excuses for you Julius fanboys after he shyts the bed again

Randle is the second best player on the team.

Randle is for sure the 2nd best player on this team
I don't give a fukk about fit, OG and Mikal are absolutely not better players than Randle
Mikal had 1 season as a #1 option and quit by seasons end. Randle took the Knicks to their first playoff appearance in nearly a decade as the #1 option

Did we not pursue him or what?

Is this guy happy playing behind a bunch of bigs in Orlando?

Mfs be doing anything I swear half the time agency affiliation is the deciding factor

Just bring back Precious and let’s go

Randle is the teams best player.

Without his greatness in the post there is no shot at a ring.

Randle is the teams best player.

Hell no.

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

life ain't fair.

but Randle's still a polarizing figure in NY and since he ain't a NOVA guy and everyone fell in love with Hartenstein, some view Randle as expendable or at best the piece for THAT guy.

And those folks are idiots

 

[Wargames]

I guess its Sims time

 

[In The Zone '98]

Hell no.

I ain't tryna argue.

May 2025 right around the corner.

I’m not sure about best but definitely the most talented in terms of speed, strength and skill set

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Sims better get his ass to work, cause it's looking like he's going to see A LOT of time on the court.

 

[g-ice]

Just bring Precious back then.

 

[TOAD99]

Sims and Precious better be in the lab 24/7 this summer dammit
