You would, actually trade Randle for Exum? that's a terrible move... the Lakers are already jammed at the guard position... and you never trade a big-man who has the chance to be a all-star every year..
Exum seems like a raw dude to me, and well I haven't seen much from him... he's gonna struggle for the first 2-3 years. |

| hopefully the arrival of Kelly Clarkson means the end of the Kendall Marshall experiment. If Clarkson can play any D at all... ANY D... then he's twice the player Marshall is... plus Mitch forked out $1.8m for Clarkson, that's more than Clarkson will make next season so... hopefully, buh bye Kendall Marshall, see you in Europe... |

I would rather have a franchise guard then a franchise forward. I would trade Randle for Exum in a heart beat. But it is unlikely to happen.

If the Lakers ever decided to trade Randle before he inks his extension... he should only be traded for Durant/LeBron/Anthony Davis. |

I've thought of this too. Only problem is now I really like Randle.
I was asking earlier if it were possible for us to get someone like Bledsoe and trade him for Exum. But that looks like even less probable than Lebron lol |

If you have ever seen his tweets you'll know that the guy is a complete moron. He also just says stuff to instigate his followers; for example he openly cheers against the US soccer team on twitter. He's the definition of a troll. |

It's cool. I like Randle too. But the Lakers are going to need a young stud guard to join him in the rebuild. Not sure who that will be yet. TBD.

They like to put on guys who take strong opinions based on extremely lazy "analysis".
NBA ready body (same measurements as the 2 best PFs in the league) = low upside despite being 19 years old
Initiating contact to finish cleanly over length = no-skill bully ball
17% 3 pt percentage on 18 shots = 17% shooting from "mid range"
A little resemblance in appearance and handedness = smaller Zach Randolph
Is left handed = fatal flaw of being not fully ambidextrous
Less athletic than Blake Griffin = not athletic

Pass. I wanted Randle over Exum before the draft, and still prefer Randle.

Exum would be better if he was with the Lakers.

funny thing is, it appears we know as much about Exum as Utah does, neither one of us has seen him in person... |

Ross gave Vonleh fits in Big 10 play. I'm a bit surprised he went undrafted.

Didn't both guys refuse to work out for the Jazz? What would you have done if you were Utah in that situation? |
