I see Randle as someone with the potential of a guy like Zach Randolph. An All Star caliber player and a really good #2 option on a good team and a great #3 option. Undersized, but when healthy has a nice first step for a big man. Nice array of flip shots and post moves overall. Needs to work on his jump shot, but I think he's gonna be a really good player for a long time. I don't think you build a franchise around him, but certainly anticipate him being a key cog as we try and rebuild this team and build towards the future.

I'd be happy with Love, seriously. Specially if we draft a Center.

I see Randle being apart of a core that we build this team around like Memphis has Zbo, Gasol, and Conley. I want Towns to be that guy, the Gasol to Randle's Zbo.

If we can get a legit anchor at center I see Randle becoming a beast as good as B Griffin. Someone like Deandre Jordan, Hibbert, M Gasol, or Towns would go great next to Randle.

He is so poor defensively I don't want him anywhere near the Lakers.

This and I want nothing to get in the way of Randle's development. I want Randle to get as much playing time as possible next year.

He can't stay healthy. He's banged up right now, and if he's not banged up he's breaking his hand..

Love is overrated, would much rather have Randle on his rookie contract.

Usually I don't bite at the notion "empty stats," but it is a little hard not to watching Love right now.

Really looking forward to watching the summer league this year. Randle, Clarkson, and our top 5 pick will be fun to watch.

Some for a center like Koufos or even Davis, the rest on the perimeter.

My thoughts as well. If we were competing for a championship then get Love. But we won't be, so consequently it truly excites me to see JR30 develop, especially those periodic coast to coast forays. Absolutely no one but probably Kentucky players knew he was thattt good.

For me it's exciting to wait for Julius and da_n near depresses me at the thought of Love in place of him.
