Bob Myers SHADES Knicks All-Star… | New York Knicks News

The landscape of the NBA has been changed the New York Knicks are one of the best teams in the NBA in 2024 we have made the necessary trades at the trade deadline to become one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference we are dangerous and we are finally getting the

Respect we deserve from around the league but also from a lot of other news outlets however if you listen and look hard enough you will find a hater and today’s hater alert goes to Bob Meyers former GM of the Golden State Warriors and his Target Julius Randall we’re

Going to break down exactly what he said and in why my opinion he is absolutely wrong all of this and so much more today if you’re not already subscribed to the channel go ahead and hit that subscribe button now and make sure you have notifications turned on so you don’t

Miss a second of the new content and now let’s get started Bob Meyers Shades Julius Randall when speaking about the New York Knicks and their trade deadline moves here’s my thing Julius Randle right now is injured he’s recovering and if the Knicks had Julius Randle by the way some of these

Games that they recently lost they might have won let’s not forget that Julius Randall is an Allstar so we have to give him some credit and some Kudos there I can understand if you want to kill him for the playoffs because I understand that he doesn’t always have the greatest

Performances and until he does that and shows up he’s always going to be criticized there but if there are other players you can go after and other things you can say I would rather you do that than perhaps go ahead and shade an injured player in Julius Randall even

Though you’re making a point you could have made that point in a number of different ways going after Julius Randall in my opinion especially at this point in the season where he’s injured and the Knicks look like one of the best teams in basketball is going after the

Low hanging fruit in my opinion but you know what don’t take my word for it listen to this piece of the interview that Bob Myers had with ESPN when he was talking about the New York Knicks and their trade deadline moves and you make the Judgment call on it roll it Bob what

Do you make of the deadline moves the Knicks have made I think the Knicks are the Pelicans of the East what does that mean yeah very deep a lot of good players a lot of good players lacking great lacking greatness Jaylen Brunson I’d say is is hovering around greatness after

That you know who are you going to convince me of I I’m not going to I’m sorry I like Julius Randall I think he’s a good player he’s not a great player same as the Pelican Zion Williamson let’s see what he can do in the playoffs Brandon Ingram those two teams I think

Are the deepest teams now the Celtics one to six but one to n or 10 this Knicks team that’s fantastic when you get to the playoffs it’s not about the ninth or 10th guy you know when the Warriors we were winning championships you know what our bench scoring was 27th

In the league 28th in the league 29th in the league you know who scored the guy making 40 million the guy making 30 million comparing the Knicks to the Pelicans did you basically compare Julius Randle to Zion Williamson and if we even back up a little further Julius

Randall is like Iron Man he doesn’t like to miss games he always likes to be available for his team in Reverse Zion Williamson does like to miss games and often times does Miss games because of injury or some other issue there are nothing in terms of a likeness between

Julius Randle and Zion Williamson maybe they’re both built very big and they both look like Bulls maybe that’s the comparison you can make but besides that there is no comparison between the two players if anything Julius Randall and his numbers look better than Zion Williamson and his numbers and since

He’s more available for his team on a game- to game basis especially over over the course of his career I think Julius Randle has had more impact for the teams he’s been on than Zion Williamson for the Pelicans and you want to call me out

For that you want to get at me in the comments for that I’m okay with that but I think at this point in time it’s okay to say that Julius Randall has been playing better basketball especially this year and last year than Zion Williamson whether it’s because of

Injury or whatever the case may be it doesn’t change that fact and that’s something that needs to be clear so if you’re making that statement Bob and you’re saying that the Knicks are like the Pelicans and you’re trying to compare Zion Williamson to Julius Randall because maybe the star power is

There but it’s not there when you need it I think that’s what he was trying to say that’s a weird way to say that because it’s not there because it’s not like he’s injured he’s available the reason it’s not there is for one reason or another he hasn’t been able to show

Up when the lights have been brightest now you could say sometimes it’s been a talent issue maybe he hasn’t had the players around him to help him play better maybe it’s been an injury issue whatever the case may be we could talk about a lot of factors but I do have to

Say sometimes or more oftentimes than not when randle’s in the playoffs he doesn’t show up in the ways we would like to see him show up this year when the Knicks get back to the playoffs I hope we see an updated and different type of Randle a more bully ball style

Randall if we see that I think Julius Rand is going to have a very effective playoffs but we have to see it first so I understand that and if you want to take a shot at that and understand that you can’t believe in this Knicks team because Jaylen Brunson can’t be the only

One to do it it has to be other people and nobody else on the Knicks right now has made you a Believer to an extent maybe I can understand that Randall is your other star but what about OG and his impact are we just going to sweep

That under the rug are we just not going to mention how good the Knicks have looked on offense and defense since OG’s been here how good jayen Brunson has looked in terms of his assist and playmaking and passing the ball when OG and and ob’s been added to this team how

Many assists Jaylen Brunson has been averaging are we just not going to mention these things the Knicks are better because of the Rost that we have right now Julius Randall is gonna benefit because of the roster we have right now when Julius Randall gets double teamed in the paint he’s gonna

Pass that ball out to either Jaylen Dante boan Burks all of those guys 40 plus perc three-point shooters that means one of them is getting open and hitting that three that means the New York Knicks are benefiting from that possession that’s what Julius rold can give you and if you don’t double Julius

And you let him run a muck as Clyde would say that’s exactly what he would do he’s gonna do that he’s gonna be the bully inside you don’t want and he is absolutely going to get to the line more times than you would like him to whether

He makes those free throws or not and I hope he does make them your team is going to get into foul trouble and honestly at the end of the day that’s what I love to see more than anything else where you have to adjust what you

Need to do because our Squad is just too physical and you can’t take it that’s why you’re fouling I love seeing that type of play and that type of style Julius Randall always helps to contribute to that same thing to jayen Brunson but they both do their damage in

The mid-range for the most part even though jaylen’s a very good point shooter but when you add the shooters that the New York Knicks have done and you factor in who Julius Randall is the type of player that he is and how he likes to drive down low and be that

Bully inside especially this season you can see why the New York Knicks are so dangerous why they’re going to be so dangerous when fully healthy and why Julius Randle is going to benefit maybe Randall wasn’t the playoff player that we all wanted him to be in the past but

This year he has no excuses he is going to put on on a show in my opinion he’s going to give us exactly what we want to see and he’s going to be the player that the New York Knicks have needed for the last few seasons because he finally has

The talent around him to maximize his abilities and his skill set if Randall has Shooters around him and he is the bully down low and either you’re double teaming him so he makes a right pass or you’re hoping and you’re praying that if you’re going one-on-one with him he’s

Not going to take you all the way down and make sure he get gets contact and goes to the line because often times that’s exactly what happens we have to remember I would think that maybe besides LeBron James Julius Randall is probably one of the strongest players in

The entire NBA he’s a freight train he’s coming at you and he’s running down low he’s GNA knock you down make sure you feel that and likely you’re going to get a blocking foul he’s still going to go to the line you can stop him and that

Man even though a lot of people don’t want to say it is great he’s been flirting with greatness this year just as much as Jaylen Brunson has but nobody wants to give him credit for that I used to be a very very big Randall criticizer

I thought I had the reason to be but now today I think I have just as much reason to support and praise Randall because of everything he’s shown me on that Court this year and even to an extent last year I’ve bought into this new Julius

Randall his play and what he means for this New York Knicks team if he continues to be that bully down low I think a lot of people especially Bob Meyers is going to change their tune their comments and their remarks about Julius and how he can play in the

Playoffs because all he needs is one good series and if he has one dominant good series for the Knicks nobody will say anything everybody’s been waiting for that Nick fans have been waiting for that I’ve especially been waiting for that I want to see that Julius Randall

This year he has the best chance to break out of that funk in the playoff that he’s been showing and become the player that we all know he can be that dominant bully ball Randall he gives the Knicks that the Knicks are gonna go so

Far this year that I don’t even think I can predict how far it’s going to be it could be Eastern Conference Finals it could be NBA Finals you never know with this squad but one thing I will not tolerate is disrespect for any New York Nick player especially a player who’s on

The injury list right now while the New York Knicks are still trying to find a way to win behind Jaylen Brunson and all the new additions you’re not going to shade this man especially when he was on the court he showed you why he was an Allstar this year and showcasing that

Leadership that leadership that we’ve seen from Jaylen Brunson that’s been so powerful it seems a little bit of that has rubbed off on Julius Randall affected his leadership a little bit because now you’re seeing him on the bench in the locker room in certain points of the game calling players

Together talking with players encouraging players letting them know you still got it keep your head in the game stay locked in and focused this is a different Julius Randall so because of that we have to judge him a little differently so Bob I ask you a little

Bit of a favor here judge Randall on the season he’s having now but also judge him on the playoffs that he’s going to show you this year because this year is the year Randall gives us the best Rando playoff performance we’ve ever seen we finally have the pieces to make that a

Reality but what about you guys what do you think about Bob Meyers and the shade he threw at Julius Randall regardless if it’s true or not I think in my opinion he’s going after the lwh hanging fruit with somebody who’s on the injury reserve list right now trying to get

Better for his team but you let me know in the comments do you think he was out of line let me know because honestly guys I would love to hear from you but that’s going to do it for this episode I hope you enjoyed it and if you did go

Ahead and smash that like button leave a comment below and of course guys please subscribe to the channel until next time Nick fans peace
