NBA – Without giving details on the aftermath of the incident, the Knicks player recalls that any leader remains fallible.
Latest incident, on the floor of the Magic a few days ago. On the very last possession of the first period, he felt he had been the victim of a fault by Franz Wagner. He got up to speak vehemently to referee Leon Wood, who ended up sanctioning him.
« It’s not easy for anyone. Referees have a difficult role. When you want to win a game and certain things get in the way, with missed plays or whatever, it’s tough for a competitor. But they also have a tough job. In the end I want to win and be competitive, that’s what I focus on “, defends the interior, quoted by the New York Post, to explain his frustration at the time.
The interior adds that ” Leon “, former NBA player himself, passed by the Nets in particular, would intend to address the authorities of the league to obtain the cancellation of the technical fault in question.
« Because he said I didn’t swear at him and said something inappropriate. I was just trying to have a conversation. Maybe it was a bit quick, maybe it wasn’t. But in the end, I can’t rely on him like that.

Not a “perfect” leader
« Name a perfect leader, a perfect human being. yes there is a line (note: between being a competitor and keeping your cool). It’s a dividing line, that’s for sure “, completes the left-hander.
He and Leon Wood were not the only protagonists of the scene in question. Seeing that his teammate was going to heat up quickly, Immanuel Quickley spontaneously stepped between the two men. What Julius Randle didn’t really appreciate…
« Honestly, we’re all just trying to win. It was in the heat of the moment. Nothing more. That’s all I can say. It happens. It’s part of the sport, of what it takes to be a professional athlete “, had reacted the MVP of last night, author of 40 points this night.
Has Julius Randle since apologized to his teammate? The interested party prefers not not talk about the details, the way we manage things. At the end of the day, we are a team, we are good and we focus on winning. »
