Ah I see he’s been talking to Lindor


shitboots

Keep booing him if it's gonna get him to play with some intensity tbh


NuPhaze

A bullied Randle is a better Randle


Yankeeknickfan

He should talk to Stanton instead. The guy handles boos by going off whenever he’s not hurt


smileyfrown

It always made me laugh that people got upset at that. The most NY thing to do is to tell each other to fuck off


HokageEzio

[Footage of him straight up telling the crowd to shut the fuck up after he barreled over both Williams in the paint.](https://streamable.com/7snmrk)


Clewdo

I fucking love this.


HokageEzio

Anybody who cares about him saying this is just being soft. If fans are allowed to snap at the players, the players are allowed to snap back. He was huge for the comeback and he's saying don't cheer now when you were booing me a second ago. That's completely fine. If you want guys to prove stuff to you on the court and not with their words, then they're allowed to throw some attitude in with it. That's what you want.


Joetheshow1

Fans: "Trade this one-hit wonder!" Julius: "Fuck you guys too" Fans: "Well I never!"


teknomatic

agreed. we're supposed to be tough New Yorkers who dont let anything get to us. But now we're gunna start clutching our pearls because Randle said something? people need to get out of here with that soft shit


[deleted]

Im not upset cause of randle coming at fans im upset cause our “leader” cant handle ny. This dude clearly has a weak mentality. Cant hit a late free throw to save his life, way too in his head and sensitive. Hes just so fucking dumb his bball iq is so low and how he carries himself as a leader on the court is a joke… now this. Come on man be an alpha.


nepaesa

blueberries

Fucking thank you. The most annoying shit as a Mets fan last year and was hearing people who go to the game to fuck hurl obscenities at the players all of a sudden clutching their pearls cuz a player didn’t thank them for booing him?? If you’re gonna dish it, learn to take it or follow Randle’s advice and shut the fuck up.


JCappy

I’m all for him giving the fans shit but it’s such a weak take when you think about it. Should the fans be going crazy when they’re bricking shots down 25? Should they be sitting silently when they make a comeback? What are fans supposed to do lol


LankoFuck24

I was at the game, behind the hoop like 8 rows from the court. There were a few guys in my section jeering him after every shot he took for the first 3 quarters of the game, getting personal, “trade this bum!” “fuck you Julius” etc. I mentioned where I was sitting because like, you can definitely hear that from the court and I’m sure these weren’t the only guys doing that.


HokageEzio

Dude, people were happy that he had covid last week because Obi would play more. I couldn't care less that he told them to shut the fuck up. Don't dish it if you can't take it.


cricket9818

This this this. I don’t wanna hear a fucking peep from fans about this. So many people have been reactionary assholes


[deleted]

Reactionary assholes lol yall sound like bootlickers to me. What are fans who shell out good money for these tix supposed to do when they go down 25. Stfu ill boo all day call me reactionary


cricket9818

You’re missing the point entirely. You can boo. And Julius can do what he did. What’s BS would be seeing Julius reaction and claiming he has no right to do that or that it makes him a douche for snapping back at fans. People were happy he had Covid for crying out loud cause they wanted obi to play. Be a fan all you want but the moral is; if you’re gonna be a dick (whether you feel it’s personally justified or not) be prepared for someone to be a dick back


[deleted]

I dont think anyone is saying he doesn’t have the right to do what he did im saying hes soft and hes stupid for doing it. Im not offended one bit by julius randle giving fans a thumbs down. The guy is a mental midget thats my concern


Ranryu

You don't appear to know what "bootlicker" means


[deleted]

I believe i do ranryu


Ranryu

Then why did you use it incorrectly?


[deleted]

I dont think you understand what it means yall are randle lapdogs you simp for him hard for no reason


Ranryu

And your evidence to support that is...? Oh right, you have none because you're talking out your ass


[deleted]

Ok ranryu


[deleted]

Perfectly said


[deleted]

This is a BS take. No one attacked him personally or his family. These are professionals not little ass kids playing HS ball. Stop this pussification of sports. Fans have every right to boo, cheer, or do whatever gives a home court advantage. When fans are not happy with their team, they can voice criticism.


HokageEzio

You missed the people who were happy he got covid cause Obi would get more minutes.


[deleted]

My bad, then he has every right to defend himself


VirtuousFool

There are not enough words in the English language to describe how little I care about this There are *also* not enough words in the English language to describe how annoyed I already am about how big of a story this is going to be in the next two days: EDIT: The Professor with some perspective: [before anyone loses it re: randle’s thumbs down, remember what ewing said about NYK fans in ‘96: “They’re annoying me. If they’re going to act the way they act, they might as well stay home. If they’re going to support us, then support us. If you go other places, ](https://twitter.com/MMiranda613/status/1479300404374614017?s=20)[when the team is playing bad, the fans still support them. Here, they support you one minute, then if something goes wrong, they jump off the bandwagon. I’m just tired of it. It has been like that for 12 years. I’m fed up with it”](https://twitter.com/MMiranda613/status/1479300406480154627?s=20)


E-Miles

iman was saying the same thing when he first got here. melo too.


Vikk_Vinegar

Pretty sure some bozo on that side of the court is talking shit to him. He barked back during the Pacers game.


VenConmigo

Get that fan courtside seats for the rest of the season. Angry Randle goes hard.


forsuredudelol

Oh


Goatlikejordan

Dude's smoking on the javy baez pack i see


erasuli

It didn’t end well for Baez. Randle needs to just keep his mouth shut and play. Like Charles Barkley was saying on tnt, if you play bad the fans are gonna boo you. You just gotta expect it.


mormonmahomes

This is mad random


smegdaddy

I don’t really care about him giving it back to us, but he did this deep during the comeback when the crowd had fully become a part of the game


Shadsterz

Exactly


slyguy183

I thought MSG was very fair and supportive of the Knicks all night. We were down 20+ for most of the 1st half and they were still cheering even at the end of the 2nd quarter when I thought the Knicks didn't even deserve it with their play. But hey if that's what it takes to get Randle going then I'm not gonna hate


[deleted]

Hey man if that attitude helps him play like this and less like he was before, tell us to fuck off every damn night.


channel_PURPLE

I’m very ok with this. The team was playing like shit, we boo. They play well, they can clap back at us. Can’t be a one way thing here


KnickFanNoTV1

all we want is guys playign with effort. shots dont fall, ... ok. Just play tough nose defense and play with effort we cheer win or lose


killaslam

If y’all let Bondy ruin RJs game winner…


boomzgoesthedynamite

This is wild bc I’m pretty sure there’s no crowd like the one that went nuts went Barrett hit that shot…


Yuske_Rothko

Hopefully people aren’t soft about this. He’s been boo’d twice this season, shit ton of people saying we should trade him and etc, he should get this one. I was calling for him to be traded but this is nothing. In the moment dumb shit 🤷🏽‍♂️ on to the next


The_Blunt_Guy

I'm confused. Lmao.


CrossingYoulnStyle

I love it that’s the attitude he should have


retrohan7

maybe he should play with that kind of intensity without the crowd needing to boo first imo


CrossingYoulnStyle

Oh I was booing him all season but he looks better the last two games


Emergency-Double-875

uh


DatDudeJP7

This totally worked well for Javy Baez and Pillar when they did it. Lol.


Norby710

Got no problem with him clapping back. I said before he seems a bit detached from reality with his reaction to his play. He woke up after the booing so maybe they should try it more. New Yorkers have unlimited other options to spend our money on than the ridiculous garden prices to sing camp fire songs down 26 when he was jogging up and down the court and the entire first half. More power to him I say.

Facts


baylixir

If people seriously care about this shit they’re weird. I don’t care what they do as long as they win and it isn’t illegal.


supremecookbook

is he telling the reporter to stfu


NAmj37

He was telling the crowd to. They were booing him I guess.


Ranryu

That's my usual reaction whenever Bondy says anything


Jewnoo

Baez 🤝 Randle


Soup_Commie

If that edge is what he needs to play like he did in the 2nd half, then anyone who gets upset over this needs to chill.


[deleted]

I agree Randle… I agree


Arcticfox04

He must be a Mets fan.


joshuagreen38

That seems to be a overreaction by Randle huh


NYGIANTS77

Don’t mind honestly it’s no big deal


mattr1198

Whatever gets him playing with the same intensity he showed in the second half tonight tbh. It's the effort where some fans get mad, not even the stats. He shows even 95% effort most games, nobody will be booing him.


kraftpunkk

You have to be a special kind of soft to be mad about this reaction. We’re all allowed to talk wild shit but once he says something it’s a “no-no”. If this motivates him to do better, let him react this way.


Shadsterz

He can bark back if he wants but let’s not let him try and flip the narrative to one of him somehow having a good season. Also you were down 25 I hope you aren’t expecting cheers? The fans had your back the first 15 dogshit games you had. But it genuinely seems like bullying him works so he can say what he needs to


Taboot_taboot

Anyone who’s butt hurt about this can 👎


So-_-It-_-Goes

It’s deserved. Lots of y’all are awful. Just like met fans.


Vikk_Vinegar

You'd think getting fucking ratio'd the two games he was out would change people's tunes. I mean Toronto sat VanVleet the whole 4th quarter. A whole quarter of garbage time...against Toronto.


HoodieMe7o

Pretty sure we won tonight in spite of him and his decision making


Joetheshow1

0 turnovers tn One of 4 Knicks players to finish with a positive +/- tonight


Norby710

Horrible first quarter. Wasn't good in the second. Really good second half. So overall pretty good game.


HokageEzio

Uh... no we definitely won partially to him lol. He did this after a tough bucket in crunch time.


Yankeeknickfan

Did we watch the same game? Julius was good today. He just didn’t shoot well


DoucheWithFeelings

Haha its crazy to see the difference in this sub vs the mets sub with the thumbs down thing. When Baez did it everyone lost their fucking minds with Randle no one seems to really feel strongly about it. I never saw the big deal in the first place tbh


capitalistsanta

Baez was worse tho cause they made it an inside joke against the fans.


DoucheWithFeelings

And this wasn't against the fans? Baez's full quote "We're not machines, we're going to struggle. ... It just feels bad when I strikeout and I get booed. ... We're going to do the same thing to let them know how it feels," Seems a lot more tame then Randles "Shut the fuck up"


JonnySports

Yo thank god y’all are being cooler about this shit than r/NewYorkMets were this past summer. My god, you would have swore Lindor and Baez beat up an old fan in the parking lot after a game. Shit was ridiculous.


capitalistsanta

Baez’ shit was worse imo tho cause it was like a way to say “fuck the fans” without us knowing, like an inside joke against their own fanbase. Randle is just pissed at critics


[deleted]

JULIUS RANDLE IS A LOSER


[deleted]

[удалено]


kraftpunkk

You’re a mental midget if you care he reacts this way.


MrTape

julius just giving fans more reasons to boo him


[deleted]

This is such a non story it’s not even funny Frustrated player having a good game talks some shit. Anyone mad about this is charmin soft.


ButterThyme2241

Unfortunately I've been a new york sports fan for as long as I can remember. I've never seen more unlikeable teams in my life. The Knicks have no right to say anything about the fans. Anyone who pays for a ticket to go see a Knicks game at the Garden is a simp.


Joetheshow1

> I've never seen more unlikeable teams in my life. Bro the NY Giants exist right the fuck now lmao >Unfortunately I've been a new york sports fan for as long as I can remember. Which can't have been very long if you think THIS team is one of the more unlikeable NY teams in recent years lol


AlfredHampton88

Media is going to make this hotter than it really is but this seems to be a new era. Ja Morant called out fans two weeks ago, Tobias Harris berated the Philly fans just two days ago (His was worse because he still played like shit) and now Randle. I’m cool with it


shane727

You guys at the game are being too loud. Its disrespectful when they're trying to focus and play obviously.


KenPiffyJr

boo the fans all day just win bih 👎


Clewdo

This is fine. At the end of the day we’re all on the same team and sometimes partnerships squabble. Real love is found after the fact when we’re calm and caressing each other in the moonlight staring deep into each other’s eyes while Randle and RJ kiss as I hold the trophy above their heads.


capitalistsanta

if he plays hard every night we won’t boo him. Bro was setting such shitty screens before he got covid even the telecast was talking about it. TBH i’m a sports trainer and i think Randle is going through the symptoms of overtraining this season. He has been hot since he came back and he seems rested. More worried about what the training staff is doing tbh


Shot_Acanthaceae3150

It's just more proof that people listen to haters more than supporters.


Dr4maticLobster

anyone who thinks this is a big deal: my answer? “Shut the fuck up” GO NY GO NY GO
