PostPosted: Mon Apr 20, 2015 1:58 pm    Post subject: Randle ranking among 25&Under Group

Where would you rank Randle in regards to other 25 and under power forwards? On the basis of forecasting, and actual production?

1. Anthony Davis
2. Serge Ibaka
3. Kenneth Faried
4. Derrick Favors
5. Nikola Mirotic
6. Draymond Green
7. Jared Sullinger
8. Terrance Jones
9. Julius Randle
10. Aaron Gordon

Others
Thomas Robinson, Derrick Williams , Tristan Thompson, John Henson, Mitch McCary, Anthony Bennett, Adrein Payne, John Henson, Donatas Motiejunas, Cody Zeller, Noah Vonleh

Final Thoughts:With a solid rookie season I could see Randle easily go up the ranking to top 3. In my opinion, Randle would still be my first power forward drafted in this years draft.

Based on potential production 2nd behind Anthony Davis. Gordon should be at the bottom because he's really a project.

Hasn't played a full regular season game and he's 9th out of all NBA PFs under 25?

I'm being a negative nancy. I'll ease up on Randle. I genuinely want him to succeed. I just don't want the fan base to be overly critical of him next year because he doesn't reach unreasonably high expectations.

"Xavier Henry....most improved player?"


"Not best starting 5.....possible best overall?"


"Julius Randle....hasn't played a single full game....but possible best overall?"

In terms on actual production he's dead last so far. Let's watch him return to the court for a bit before guessing his future comparative productivity.

We also saw him average only 6/4 in almost 20 mins a game on 39% shooting in the preseason.

It's not about stats for rookies first game's man. He got where he wanted to on the court all of the preseason, and by the end he looked like a legit scoring option for stretches

This is what I mean by "ONLY ON LG".

Seriously, I haven't taken shots at people who thump Randle lately ...

But #9 after 13 minutes of regular season play...

Lmao playing subpar in the summer league, stinking it up in the preseason, and playing 14 minutes total= Top 10 young power forward.

Next thing you know people will say he is a crossbreed between Lebron and Barkley

Oh wait...

You really don't evaluate skills and watch the game man, someone just hands U a box score and U go back under your bridge

Because people hype up Randle it gets underneath you skin that much? Do you know how idiotic that sounds. This is a fanbase, hyping up players is one of the things that happens. It's ridiculous that it should even concern you that much considering that it doesn't harm anyone to have some expectations about a player.
