I have very little interest in watching this if Randle plays.

I wonder if Heat fans are just starting to get the "knicks fan" RandleHate type of vibe for Butler?

Shank the Tank! Beat the Heat!

Remember when Jimmy was the darling of all and the kind of tough guy teams needed? Jimmy not wired right.
Still, hard to not love the intensity but that he "don't play well with others" can be an issue. He like Jordan but not as talented or charismatic.
We have not seen as much of his endorsements this year?
Teams with intense culture do this. Its the kind of thing that you want before the playoffs.
Jimmy should not be verbally threatening his coach. That Spo stood up was cool.
All the while Riley got his black cloak on in the stands doing "good, let the hate flow thru you Jimmy, Moo, Ha ha ha ha....."

LOL, they in first place, but Miami fans don't care so no hate cuz there is no love.
The Randle hate thing is a bit out of hand. We boo the performace. He stands up and he don't like it. Thats cool. He voiced his displeasure.
ALso cool in my book. Knick fans take it personal now. We need randle. Extracting him does not solve our problems. I like the dude. Not crazy about his reactions but he owned it and has played better.
Bit of a throwback to the Melo era? Blame Melo for everything?

I could care less about his gestures. What i don't like is the ball dominance and turnovers.

Check. If not for that awkward funky lefty jumper, their bully ball games could be the primary answer for all that Melo-type hate.

We want the yoots to run free! We want RJ Grimes IQ Deuce threes, not ugly old Randle threes and step back 2's and all that ugly around the rim bounce it off the backboard layup crap! We want RJ swooping and hooping! We want Cams smoove moves!

Why are we even considering playing Randle? Hey, the young players did really well, got valuable experience Obi played more than 14 minutes and we won, we have to put a stop to it at once!!!!!

I know you and many others don't care but a professional franchise can not be run with emotional spur of the moment decisions, There are things to take into account including not wanting to completely lose Randle. I'll say it again -- I understand many do not care -- but the organization does.
