"You want to make his last year special—or convince him that it's not his last year." -- @J30_RANDLE on @kobebryant http://t.co/yWKPmLLGM9

saw it in the randle thread but figured other people might not see it there...

I found this quote the most enlightening:

"...learning from Lakers strength and conditioning coach Tim DiFrancesco while they shop at Whole Foods together...".

Whole Foods!

His head is definitely in the right place. At that level, that is a rare thing in today's NBA. Get healthy and build your body young man. We look forward to seeing you contribute to this team.

Brilliant interview. Also kudos to Mitch for how he's handling the decelopment. Having Randle wrote up scouting reports and such. that's brilliant. And also Randle's perspective of and mind for the game.

There is hope at least.

But I'm still confused why Mitch and not Byron works with him. Not that this is a bad thing. Just doesn't help to shine some bright light on the coaching staff...

Impressive young man. Multiple comments in that article that gives me confidence he understands and embraces the role he is being given on a rebuilding Lakers team. Now he just needs to prove it on the court.

Wow, there is hope at the end of tunnel!

Hopefully, he is taking his time to build and develop his game knowledge. It is a blissing to see his reactions to his misfortunate.

Once he is in physical condition to practice and play, Kobe, the greatest, please become a factor in his development!

Love to see this young man in Lakers uniform!

Great article, thanks OP.

He is an impressive young man to say the least. I am looking forward to Randle Clarkson and Kobe on the floor together. Even if just for a season (or two). Exciting future, potentially.

Go Lakers!

Mitch played pf for the Lakers before his knee injury. He's not young but he probably still knows something about it.
