So then, is he most effective when he starts his offense out in the perimeter?
I feel Randle is alot more dangerous when he faces up, as opposed to having his back to the basket. I've seen alot of plays where he wildly misses...
Good thoughtful post. If he were to develop that jumpshot, do you think he would become a match-up nightmare at SF as well?
I hear you and I don't disagree. Moving Randle to SF is far from ideal. I get it. But that's not what I want to talk about. I want to hear what...
^^^ Thanks for the bump. That is just a disgrace.
That won't happen. Randle's value is really low outside the Lakers world, and we won't get equal value in return. Whether or not you agree, could...
I agree with you, but given that we currently have zero SFs on our roster, we may need to ask Randle to play out of position. And you could say...
So... what's our final take on Randle's ability to play as a fulltime SF? He's got the quickness, size and handles, so I guess it comes down to...
Seriously, dating back to the 2005 draft, how many times has there been a legitimate big as a top prospect? Maybe 4 times. Lemarcus Aldridge in...
Then I say no. He's a valuable asset as a energy guy off the bench. And he's efficient too. We'd be hard-pressed to draft in the late teens and...
Tarik was the 12th ranked rookie last year, so if we're packaging #27, we'd have to (at least) get into the Top 10 to get equal value in return.
@RandleROFY your post is messed up lol
And nothing against you as well, but your overreaction drives me nuts. Everyone is hoping to draft a player that has the potential to become a...
I know you're just throwing out a hypothetical situation, but I don't like it. It has "Kobe-trying-to-do-everything-stagnant-offense" written all...
Where would our offense be though?
The comparison between Randle and Z-Bo started because, on paper, they're both a southpaw, they have similar below-the-rim games, and they're both...
Everyone sees the writing on the wall. This 'trend' of perimeter-oriented basketball is coming to an end. After the Lebron/Durant generation, the...
Bigs like Okafor/Towns come around once or twice every decade. So the bottom line is, if we're picking a guard, they need to be on a Magic or...
I would just try to get Love or Butler for the max, and if that doesn't pan out get a savvy SF vet in the 50th-100th FA ranking.
Or Love or Butler, and Lin :) I also like Boozer as a vet. All the rooks/sophs mention him as being very helpful. I think he's a good cop to...
