Thank you!


Hes definitely the "blow the rim" player even against the horrendous defense of the summer league.

He has a great first step but his lack of shooting really leave out the possibility of him playing the three....at least for years to come.


Lbj is quite possibly the greatest 3 of all time and he couldn't shoot a lick for 8 eight straight seasons.


In highlights of five different summer league games I didnt see Randle finish a dunk once. That totally reminds me of Lebron James.


Are you just trolling? You watched all 5 highlights and didn't see a dunk from Randle? Go visit your optometrist ASAP.

he obviously is a very below the rim player, he is not blake griffin or young amare or kemp by any stretch. you can see him double clutch on nearly every shot, and this is against summer league defense. Time will tell how well his game works when the games count.

I love the interview at the end. He's not someone who will give bad excuses for poor play.

Sure I guess labeling him as below the rim player is OK but I'm glad he's not Griffen Amare or Kemp. I'd lable him as a skilled player myself. Also I think you'll be surprised with his athleticism. Quick strong and can jump. If I'm not mistaken the 3 other guys are more of a 2 feet jumper while I think Randle is better exploding off of one foot

To be fair, he doesn't play above the rim DURING GAMES very often. He's still a quick, skilled young player who could possibly develop into an All-Star.

He plays mostly below during games. If you see his summer league games, a lot of times his shot release in the paint comes on the way down (they go in though).

Julius will posterize at least 1 person this season.

He will also break at least 1 person's ankles.

His agressiveness/skill/athleticism combo gaurantees it

do Beasley and Nick Young together drown out Randle offensively, if theyre all in the same unit? it'd be best for Randle's development if he could get alot of offense ran through him in that 2nd unit -- he'd be able to learn/improve without the 1st unit/kobe pressures

Guess it depends if we do a bunch of iso. If we move the ball they can for sure play together

Let's pick a topic and stick with it. Are we still on shooting ability to play the 3 or are you moving the goal posts to talk about in game dunking?

I really like Randle. He has so much of an alpha attitude. He is coming onto the floor to dominate period! I am really glad we got him.

He doesn't get as high as those 2, but he does have decent ups-- especially for a guy his size.
