one of thibs or randle have to go imo. thibs does not hold him accountable at all and it just cant happen anymore. inject a new coach/system and put his ass on notice. i would prefer to trade him and let rj get some breathing room to grow but idk how likely it is to get decent value back without taking a big step back.

Julius Randle isn't a #2 option on a Championship winning team.
The problem is that we keep talking about a PF/4 as only a scorer.

He's a 3, thats plays like a 2, who's 40lbs too heavy, but doesn't have the post game or vision to actually play against 4s/5s, and can't beat any 2s/3s off the dribble.

His body fat percentage makes you believe he's better than he actually is.

I’m afraid this front office is not savvy enough to make the necessary acquisitions this summer…but will pray I’m wrong.
this FO has admitted its mistakes and pivoted before. I'm not sure they'll make ultimate big move
randle gon be a knick for another 3 years.

RJ has "turned a corner" like 50 times in his career
RJ's playoff stats: 20.1/4.7/3.0 on 45/34/74 with 2.2 TO
RJ's regular season stats: 19.6/5.0/2.8 on 43/31/74 with 2.2 TO

You would think this dude dropped some 30 or 40 bombs like Brunson the way people have been talking
He had some good games, he had some awful games and overall it averaged to basically the same shyt as the regular season :heh:

Trade Julius for Siakam imo, much better defender. Julius defense is the most stunning thing, dude offers no resistance or rim protection. Siakam is an excellent defender, NBA Champion as a 2nd option, better scorer by a lil imo, same age and is typically good in the playoffs offensively sans the bubble. Also Siakam can actually pass out of a double team
Why would raptors do that
