It looked like a breakaway layup for Josh Richardson, but Julius Randle didn’t see it that way.
It looked like a breakaway layup for Josh Richardson. The Spurs guard was ahead of the pack after a Jalen Brunson turnover in the first quarter.
“Coach [Tom Thibodeau] always just says never give up on the play, don’t quit on a play. That’s really what it is,” Randle said after theon Wednesday at the Garden. “He had a couple steps on me. I saw he was measuring his steps looking back. Just chased it down, blocked it and Jalen did a good job of not quitting either. He got back in the play and got the rebound.”
Julius Randle blocks Josh Richardson’s layup attempt during the first half of the Knicks’ 117-114 win over the Spurs.“I don’t know, just playing hard. I was garbage so I had to do something,” Randle said, referring to the blocks. “My teammates just do a good job just keeping me motivated. I got a little pissed off at myself. It intensified my motor a little bit just to play a little harder.”Obi Toppin was available Wednesday night, but the plan for him was far more murky.
Before suffering a lacerated right index finger that has cost him the last four games, RJ Barrett had played well with the reserves. Randle has excelled with a bigger minutes allotment. Adjustments will have to be made. In the 14 games Toppin has missed, the Knicks are 9-5.
