Randle and Bijan Johnson at training
I'm hearing these two got heated at training and had to be separated?
Is Johnson well liked by his teammates?

Wouldn't surprise me. The way Johnson carried on last season showed me his character.
Why is it BJ is at fault. Perhaps Randle is a bit precious at times
Nothing in it. Just a disagreement between teammates. Johnson has previously had a short fuse from what I've seen, but seems to have reigned it in somewhat recently. The kid is quick, athletic and has some natural talent, but hopefully things like this don’t hold him back from reaching his potential.
He reminds me a lot of Daniel Sims, who had all the talent, but let his attitude ruin his career. Hopefully BJ doesn’t go down this path.

Dim Sims was on another planet in terms of attitude!

Jerome Randle & Bijan Johnson had to be separated at a fiery training session today. Exclusive video here including Randle talking about the possibility of coming up against Deshon Taylor. Latest news is Taylor unlikely to play on Saturday night.
It also has a video
Bijan actually getting on the court, even during training, shows how bad the Sixers are going to be this season.
Bijan is a nob. If you're a DP playing junk minutes and making up the numbers at training sessions, and you've already commissioned someone to create a logo for your t-shirt line you are a massive, swaggering nob.

Bijan Johnson.
Never heard of him until this thread.
He is Daniel Johnson's meth addicted younger brother
Bijan, seems like the type that will do anything he thinks Joey would be impressed with. Problem is not all coaches will like this sort of behaviour. Know your role kid.
Both are idots and have a short fuse. Not surprised.
I would take BJ any day over Sims. Sims was cancerous. BJ is "excitable" but with strong coaches is both manageable and coachable
Even Andy couldn't manage Sims!
"Bijan Johnson. Never heard of him until this thread."
With name like Bijan, no wonder. Never heard of him either.
The fact that we're even comparing BJ to Sims speaks volumes.
Ive worked closely with both Sims and Johnson.
BJ is nowhere near the level of unmanageable that Sims was.

You are all a bunch of ____ wits. You all forget, Bijan is the youngest and still developing as a player. Must say he's doing pretty well. His team mates, coach and trainers love the passion and fire he's got. Randle is just another excuse for you idiots to find him at fault. Grow up you wankers.
a months old thread gets randomly bumped. guess who has been googling themselves
Everybody at the Sixers is scurrying to cover their arse now. Just watch people getting thrown under the bus left, right and centre. It started with the press conference after the Perth debacle.
