I think he was so gutted by his teammates performance, it was a rebuke of his teammates, saying ‘you guys are pro; worth paying respect to’

Randle was an all-star but facing DPOY Wemby will make you look like a benchwarmer

Even though the coach is waving the “white flag” by pulling me out, I’m not going to give the optics that I “AGREE” with the coach decision to wave the “white flag” by pulling me out. If this was Lebron James, HE’LL BE CRUCIFIED!! We would’ve said, “See? Lebron ‘agrees’ with the coach’s decision to wave the white flag. That’s why Lebron is dapping them up.” That’s EXACTLY what people would’ve said!!!

As a Knicks, I can tell you Julius Randle is a cancer for any team. He fights with his own teammates and creates a terrible locker room vibe

The language you guys use. Its like this ESPN is becoming a black talk show. He should of waited for the game to be over not abandon the run to locker room. What a shame

it was way too early to shake hands. this was way worse than jaylen browns comments after they lost last week…that everyone lost their minds over that. the ant man cult is weird (like shedeur cult)

This is completely stupid. If they feel that way about the situation then why did the coach take the starters out and concede the game.
To me there is no difference. If you feel that strongly about what he did then come with the same energy with conceding the game early.
LeBron did the same thing with 4 min left in the game.

Him doing that was not only a respect to the other team but disgust with his own team. Perk is right. This is not a big deal to me.
