After arguing that he was fouled on a drive to the basket, Randle was teed up for the third and fourth times this season.
After drawing 12 technical fouls last season to rank in the top 20 among all NBA players, Julius Randle says he made a friendly bet with someone in the Knicks organization that he would cut that number down to three this year.After arguing that he was fouled on a drive to the basket, Randle was teed up for the third and fourth times this season to earn an ejection in the third quarter of Sunday’s win over the Kings.
“Dealing with us as players, it’s like I’ve said I could never coach. It’s a lot to deal with. I understand they can’t get every play right. You know me. I’m a passionate player. I play with a lot of emotion, a lot of drive. So sometimes it gets the best of me. But that was a conscious thing going into the summer to try to limit that.
“Regardless, I can’t put my teammates in that situation and that was selfish of me. I got to be better.” “Hopefully, that last one gets rescinded. But we’ll see. I’m really trying my best,” Randle said. “Sometimes my emotions get the best of me. But that’s just kind of what comes with it.“I’m just trying to be more invested and in tune with what’s going on with our team. How can I help my guys? How can I make the best plays for my team? Next play mentality. So the more I focus on that, the more all the outside distractions [don’t] become a thing.
