The New York Knicks have been one of the most surprising teams in the NBA this season.
While the Knicks have made the playoffs in two of the past three seasons, they were not expected to be one of the best teams in the East this year.
They officially finished the regular season as the No. 2 seed in the conference, giving them a favorable matchup in the first round of the playoffs.
While the Knicks do have a few star players that lead this team when called upon, they have played so well because of the consistency across their roster.
They have seven players who are averaging at least 10 points per game, with three averaging 18+ per game.
This has led to great success for this team since they don’t necessarily need to rely on one individual every night.
When looking at the Knicks’ success this year, and with their team-first mentality in mind, Eddie House appeared on The Carton Show, where he made a bold statement about one of the best players on the roster.
“The Knicks are better off without Julius Randle,” House boldly claimed.

Randle played in 46 games for the Knicks during the regular season due to some injury issues and concerns.
They will be without him throughout their playoff run, and if they make a far push in the postseason, there might be an additional conversation to be had, as House highlights.
Randle is supposed to be a cornerstone of this team, but if they can win without him, the Knicks might need to re-evaluate his standing with the organization.
