saying they're nothing alike is silly. YES THEY ARE. now are they alike in a lot of ways? NO.THEY'RE NOTING ALIKE! RANDLE IS FAR MORE SUPERIOR ATHLETICALLY THAN Z-BO/JAMES WORTHY/ODOM COMBINE. I CAN SEE Z-BO, BUT I SEE RANDLE CEILING HIGHER THAN Z-BO.
These guys have to be compared to someone.
Two lefty thick dudes that have post game and a faceup game which can take you off the dribble. thats zbo and randle.
now we know randle is much quicker and has a much better handle then zbo. we know that zbo is probably stronger than randle on the block.
we know that randle is much more athletic than zbo.
but with all that said. Randle still looks more like zbo then he did blake griffin. since blakes game started out as 85% athletic ability and faceup game. now its morphed into some strength on the block mixed in with a ton of faceup game, dribbling, dishing from the perimeter like a guard.
randle is a hybrid of many guys. he's a left like zbo but has handles . so thats more like LO(who was named in the comparison). but he aint LO either. LO was tall and lean. and LO's body was not made for that kind of constant contact that Randle seeks out when going to the rack. short arms and all. randle likes to ram into people's chest then shoot his little flip shots.
