After the game, Smith, a lifelong Knicks fan ripped into Barrett and Randle in an unhinged postgame rant.
“RJ Barrett it’s going to be a long offseason you were absolutely pathetic, 1-10 from the field, in 32 minutes all you could score was one basket”
“Julius Randle I am done with this man, I’m calling for the NY Knicks to trade him, you’re not going to win with him…his body language the second his shot is not falling he’s defeated and it has contagious effect, it’s like a virus”
