For someone with uncontrollable anger issues that keep popping up over and over again, I think it's going to take more than just rest to get him back on "track." Those things don't just go away on their own.


I guess my rebuttal is that he's not really the worst I've seen. It's not even the worst I've seen Randle at. I just don't think this is something beyond his control. He ain't even destroying locker rooms like Kyrie or empowering conspiracy theories like Kyrie or punching out teenagers and threatening mall employees like Ja Morant or intentionally injuring people like Brooks.

This is why I give Randle a lot of shyt and have never admitted anything in the Eating Crow thread. All the shat he did last year, I blame Randle for, but he can get help and get himself in order. He's done it once before. Time to do it again. And if he doesn't, then no excuses.

I'm paying attention to how the organization is refusing to make Julius available to the media. At least on the surface, it looks like they're coddling/protecting him instead of holding him accountable. Not a good look.

Getting a technical 3 games in a row and then going nose-to-nose with a teammate in a fit of anger shows a complete lack of control IMHO. Once is a "my bad," but THREE TIMES IN A ROW???

Also, needing a fake Dali Lama to talk him through breathing exercises before each game just to keep him calm is not normal behavior.

The guy has real issues and it's unfortunate how some fans and possibly even the KNICKS front office are simply trying to brush it all under the rug as no big deal.

If Brunson plays they win. If not, loss. Maybe.

What’s the over/under on the number of shots Jalen Green takes tonight?

I’m going with 32.

This a trap game for our Knickerbockers and they need to come out playing with a lot of energy and use Obi, and Hart’s energy off the bench from the get go late into the 1st quarter. Time to rest Randle and give the opportunity to Obi and McBride if need it be. We can’t afford to lose these type of games and we all know Houston got nothing to lose.

It’s the James Dolan way.

More of today’s athletes should want to play for James Dolan. He’ll protect their sensitive asses from any form of criticism.

FINALLY, Julius spoke to the media this morning. Except, instead of taking ownership over what happened, saying he apologized to his teammates, and offering an apology to the fans, he said some mumbo-jumbo about "we're good" as a team then moved on.

Total bullshyt. I'm 100% done with him. :nonono:

Time to get back on track leading until the playoffs. The Cavs are clicking at the right time and will be a tough out if we don’t pull it together

Clyde on Randle .. we like the diming, not the whining. Also spoke how on a night like this, we remember Willis Reed and how he was the opposite of Randle and Randle should look how he carried himself

probably best that jalen rests. if the knicks can't beat houston without him they should go f*ck themselves.
