Randle should never have shot that 3. No chance of going in and he is not a good FT shooter.

Any of the other 4 guys would have been better.

Man Randles does not have the clutch gene. Those FTS weren't even close


Only people that say Randle doesn't have a clutch gene are having selective memory loss on the three clutch blocks he made for us this year in key situations and the game winner he JUST HIT on the Bulls.

Kneejerk reaction but none of our young guys besides DLO seem to have anything close to a clutch gene.


i could swear randle won us the game against chicago a couple nights ago

Till his recent stretch of misses he was shooting in the mid to high 70s from the free throw line.

honestly, I think on so many levels Randle still has not accepted he is never going to be AAU Randle again....and until his accepts that, his true All Star potential will continue to come up short

Randle wasn't making 3 free throws. Has nothing with clutch genes or not.

Nah man he choked


He's had a game where he choked and several others this season where he hasn't.

Doesn't mean he doesn't have a clutch gene, just means he came up short tonight. That doesn't undo the several other clutch performances and key plays he's had this season for us already.

Dude hit the game winner on the Bulls 2 games ago ffs. Enough with the selective memory. It's fine to say he came up short tonight without making it a mountain out of a molehill absolute like some fans always wanna try to do.

Randle's been clutch for us this year. Wasn't tonight. That's all it is. Not as sexy a statement I guess. But closer to reality.

Ouch. Hate Julius in this game. Seems out of it.


Terrible body language. Has been off ever since he kind of had that argument with Luke earlier in the game. Rolling his eyes and throwing himself onto chairs during timeouts.


Yep. And it seems like he was pushing back on what Luke was telling him instead of soaking it all in.


so this minor observation ended up having major consequences late in the game

His % is down to earth from his 80+ earlier this year. He's actually worse than last year now.

It was a surprise earlier how we were the 2nd best FT shooting team. I haven't looked lately, but I'm sure we're no longer 2nd.
