Is Juluis Randle a fraud?

2 major red flags with Randle - he didn't bet on himself by signing for less and melo is a fan.

Can't blame a 3rd option for being asked to play 1st option and failing.

[Ray Williams]

He is a low IQ, ball hogging choker that puts up empty stats. Get rid of this bum ASAP.

Randle is being badly coached. He needs to be told that he has to play within the team concept - and not attempt to be the straw that stirs the drink. He's a good shooter and very skilled offensively - but he doesn't play hard enough on defense and slows everything up on offense when he begins molesting the basketball.

That pretty much sums up Randle. He's coming off a career year so I'm sure in his mind he considers himself a #1 option but the playoffs reminded everyone that he's not that guy. While he's still young, I doubt he'll improve much at this stage in his career which is fine considering he would make for a very good #3 option.

We need playmakers on this team- true superstars- that would force Randle to defer out of those isolation sequences and also reduce the amount of double teams he'd see on a nightly basis. If he played alongside someone like Lillard, I'm sure he'd defer a lot more.

He's starting to look a lot more like the Randle from his first season here rather than last year. Still early and hopefully he'll play a more team-oriented brand of basketball on the offensive end moving forward IF Thibodeau holds him accountable in film sessions.

How do you play with team concept when RJ can't hit anything and boston backcourt is too scared to shoot?

He did it fine in the first quarter. Then he reverted. Video doesn't lie.

Juluis' usage rate is too high for a #3 option. He'd be terrible in that role and his ego wouldn't hold up. He has teammates outplaying him every game, and he still hogs the ball.

[HEZI]

I don't think Randle is even a 3rd option. He's a ball hog, Iso/high volume shots reliant, inefficient and also he's an atrocious defender. He's played a reduced role on other teams who had more talent than the Knicks and he never fit well in those roles.

[whocares1]

Imagine thinking a guy who can get you 21/10/5 not any given night a fraud. Stay sane RealGM lmao

I don’t understand why getting that guy well below is bad? He’s a borderline elite player on offense (that is inconsistent) and is finally not a sieve on D. I’m confused as to why he’s a fraud. He’s putting up nearly identical numbers.

Anyone who thought Randle was one of the 20 best guys in the league was obviously making themselves to be the fool.

Anywhere in that 20-30 range is where he would fit realistically.

If anyone has to pick it up, it’s RJ.

I agree for the most part, and I think you can visibly see Randle hijack the offense at random times in the game which is frustrating to watch but the talent is there. I think the focus should be less on Randle and more RJ because he either plays like a future star or a back up.

[br7knicks]

Let's relax. He still doesn't have any legit star help.

I think he's a #2, depending on who the #1 is. If you have a kawhi, giannis, or a guy with that killer mentality, he's fine as #2.

If you have a pussy like Harden, embiid, etc, he's not a good #2

I was at Game last night. He reverted to first year Randle, who tried to play spin move, hero ball, rather than team ball like last year.


I think, as knicks fans, we have a lot of experience in watching which type of basketball wins games and which doesnt
