#Julius Randle gives Knicks fans thumbs down: ‘Shut the f–k up’

Julius Randle knows how to overshadow a great win.

Randle went on a rampage in the third quarter to spur the Knicks’ comeback from 25 points down in a 108-105 win over the Celtics at the Garden, but he was caught on camera executing an unfortunate thumbs-down gesture the Mets made famous.

One day after profanely saying he doesn’t care what others think about his season, Randle, after a poor first half, came on strong in the second half and played frenetically during a 10-point third quarter.

But after one beastly drive, he ran back downcourt and did a thumbs-down gesture.

Randle didn’t deny it afterward and continued his profanity. When asked what it was for, Randle said, “To shut the f–k up.’’

When asked if it was response to something, Randle said, “You saw that. You saw what was going on with that.’’

The Knicks fans had booed in the second quarter when the Knicks fell way behind.

Last season, Mets players — notably Javier Baez and Francisco Lindor — were reprimanded by owner Steve Cohen for directing the thumbs-down gesture at Citi Field fans.

When asked Wednesday whether he felt unappreciated by the fans, Randle said: “Really don’t give a f–k what anybody has to say, to be honest. I’m out there playing. Nobody knows the game out there better than I do, compared to what everybody has to say.’’
