This article sums up this situation perfectly. Randle has no mental toughness, especially to play in NY! He's quit on the team and the fans and the Knicks must do whatever possible to move him asap. Bad example for their young players. I'm a Thibs guy, but I'm totally upset how he's handling this situation and coaching the team in general.

The thing is with Julius as a young player he was recognized of being best in the nation at power forward and second overall. He was a basketball prodigy, and was represented by successful AAU basketball Team coordinator in Dallas Texas. He played for a prestigious private religious High School in a very prosperous area. He was highly recruited and coddled. His mother is a college educated professional. Julius was definitely managed for a career in basketball. That's why I think he has no idea why people dislike, and criticize him, he has never been really told no. He is shocked by the insults and criticism because it's never happened. He's never been challenged.
