Julius Randle and His Low Trade Value Should not be Asking for a Trade
Allegedly Julius Randle is upset with the Knicks front office because of their inability to surround Randle with a winning team.
If there’s any truth to this story, it truly shows the lack of accountability on Randle’s part.
It’s becoming increasingly difficult to watch Knicks games, and Randle is a big reason why. He seems very uninterested and lethargic on the hardwood nowadays. He looks mentally checked out.
It might be time for a change, but don’t sit there and act as though your play is due to lack of help.
Julius Randle should be less concerned about the front office and more concerned about going right. Rumor has it that Randle doesn’t even make right turns in his car.
Randle needs to come to terms with the fact that he is a role player. There’s nothing wrong with that, but when you overestimate your talent you’ll have a tendency to distance yourself from reality.
The Knicks shouldn’t surround Randle with better talent, they should have Randle surround a superstar. One of the biggest issues with the Knicks is that they have a team full of role players.
Role players are inconsistent, and unreliable. With a team like that, you are sure to get inconsistent results.
Randle and the Knicks caught the league by surprise last season.
After winning Most Improved Player, leading the Knicks to a 4th seed, and being placed on the All-NBA Second Team, there was no doubt from the league that the Knicks and Randle overachieved.
Unfortunately the league was prepared for Randle and the Knicks this time around.
Check out this article that explained that the Knicks were never that good to begin with:
Instead of Randle trying to point the finger, he needs to look in the mirror.
