I'm not down with the Randle slander when we can't even see what he can do until October... if you like how Nance looks right now, imagine what kind of improvement Randle will be able to make.
It's really not about improving his game as it is his style and fit.
He literally sucks the life out of every play.
He can't shoot. He doesn't pass. His best move is backing up 10 feet to get a running start at the basket, throwing up a terrible shot with his lefthand and grabbing the rebound for a put-back. He can't finish with his right hand. He can't defend. Yes, he can grab a rebound and start a fast break, but what good is it if he doesn't make the right play?
But, hey, he averaged a double-double, so none of this matters. Give me a break.
I really,
really tried to like Randle, I even went as far as defending him from time to time, but I can't do it any longer. The guy is trash.
He can go play human bowling ball for another franchise.
Oh, and lastly, what irks me the most about Randle is the ridiculous amount of confidence he has in skills that he doesn't possess. Like, bro, stop waving off players that are far and away better than you.
If Randle approached the game the way Nance does, and understood and committed to his role, while also being cognizant of his limitations, he would be a much, MUCH better player. But he doesn't, so **** him.
