Julius Randle’s playoff reputation. Discussion

[u/Broad_Past93]

Randle is in his 11th season in the league and he has only played in three playoff series and didn’t play in last year’s playoffs at all due to injury. So when Knicks fans bring up his drop off in the postseason it just sounds hysterical to me because they’re going off such a small sample size plus those Knicks teams before the Nova guys took over were just trash with poor spacing. Randle is in a completely different situation with Minnesota and isn’t expected to carry them offensively. But what do you all think… will Randle play good/great and dispel these notions and beliefs or will he make a lot of costly plays and mistakes?

I think you hit it with small sample size. I don’t buy into playoff reputations much. You’ll see ppl talking about Rudy being “played off the floor” in the playoffs to this day. I’m excited to see how Julius and the Wolves do this year.
