I'm actually fine with Randle not starting. He has a lot to learn. First thing being that just putting up big numbers doesn't mean you're doing what's best for the team.

Does not matter much if Randle or Nance is starting. Start Black at C and Russell.

And whoever else at HC.

I would be so happy to see a run and gun offense for this line up even if it was just 12 minutes.

PG. D'lo
SG. Lou
SF. Brown
PF. Randle
C. Nance

Since moving into the starting lineup seven games ago, a few things have happened for the better. Randle has posted four double-doubles. He has shot 51.4 percent from the field. He has logged just under 30 minutes per contest.

“I still love what Julius has done,” Scott said. “But when Larry was in that starting role, he was playing extremely well.”




Gotta love the media, no where did Scott say that Randle was unlikely to keep his starting position or that Nance would be starting once he worked his way back. All Medina's words. Typical media garbage. What Scott did say himself is that they would compete for the starting spot, and that is what should happen.

Be patient...this is BS last year and we're on pace to keep our pick. Let's just weather the Byron storm


We are on pace to get into the lottery and if we are lucky we would keep our pick

Here is an idea Scott you clueless moron: how about you start them both...together?

HOLY (bleep) WHAT A CONCEPT AMIRITE!? MINDBLOWING!

Russell
Clarkson
Bryant/Brown
Randle
Nance

Like...woah...wouldn't that change things up a bit?

Oh wait, I got a little ahead of myself with starting Russell. Nah he can't takeover Byron's new head of snake now can he?


Why start Larry Nance at the 5 when you have Tarik Black?

So, Julius is only doing well because he's starting?

I don't really remember Nance getting double doubles.

oh don't you remember? He had an average of 10/11 across 6 games and people were putting Randle on the trading block and saying Nance was better than him and all that stuff.
