Julius Randle, the Knicks' great crossroads

Julius Randle is one of those misunderstood geniuses who have the same probability of winning championships as of ruining an entire sports project. The New York Knicks know this well and they seem more convinced each time of the appropriateness of getting rid of him, but they maintain a conservative stance so that his cachet does not suffer.

Courageous decisions must be made to aim for glory, and that is what the management of the New York Knicks is willing to do. What happened last year, with a team capable of creating its own culture and identity without the need for Julius Randle, instills confidence that the power forward is completely dispensable. While some argue for trying his fit in the team now that Mikal Bridges is there and there is a collective solidity, Randle is still perceived as a disruptive talent, but also in the worst sense of the word.

Headstrong, selfish, lacking tactical intelligence, and with a clear tendency to rush decision-making and defensive nonchalance, New York Knicks would ideally do without his services. They won't be in a hurry, instead maintaining a passive attitude until it becomes evident that they can get significant returns for their player. It even seems likely that they will start the season with him and make decisions as it progresses.
