I don't think we've seen 5% of what Julius Randle is capable of

[PoorAndDangerous]

26 & 8, 10-10 FG

Bubububububut the didn't call him for offensive fouls

 

[Dwight Howard]

26 & 8, 10-10 FG

All you dudes care about is numbers. I bet you didnt watch the game. The thunder was literally letting him score to speed up the pace. Randle has 1 out of 10 games where he actually succeeds. If you watch the game you would have saw their strategy worked hence the W. Randle 26 and 8 had zero impact on the game and the refs are letting him get away murder cause they know no better. Its over. Parker>>

Foh with this dumb ass shyt

DUMB

HIS FINISHING AT THE RIM, FACILITATING, HANDLES, DEFENSE, AND FREETHROWS HAVE ALL DRASTICALLY IMPROVED. ITS OBVIOUS WHO’S WATCHED HIS CAREER CLOSELY AND WHO HASN’T

His free throw shooting is the lowest of his career
He’s averaging more turnovers than assist
His handle is damn near the same
He only goes left and barrels into defenders

He’s not a bad player hell I’d like to have him on my team, but his approach to the game has yet to change
He could be a beast if he had patience on offense and more discipline on D

 

[killacal]

They didn't jump the gun. This was the level he was playing at prior to his two ACL injuries -



Julius NEVER, EVER showed that level of ability, no matter how many times you wanna wash away reality with revisionism. That was the end (if there was ever a debate in the first place). The fact you've brought up a player that has nothing to do with this conversation tells me all I need to know.

He played straight up on his knees poor guy it was just a matter of time

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Abused Portland last night until foul trouble and lets not forget hes better than Jabari. Another Classic horrible @Gil Scott-Heroin NBA take.

Bubububububut the didn't call him for offensive fouls

26 & 8, 10-10 FG

LMAO @ GIL ANXIOUSLY WAITIN FOR THIS GAME, HOPIN FOR RANDLE TO FAIL

MEANWHILE I DIDNT EVEN CARE TO KNOW THAT PELICANS WAS PLAYIN TODAY

THAT ALONE SHOULD TELL U WHO LOST

AGAIN, I WASNT COMPARING THEM SMH

JULIUS HAS FAR MORE SKILLS THAN DWIGHT

JUST STOP...EVEN IF U TRULY DO THINK HE SUCKS (SMH), U ALSO SAID “HE WONT PUT UP NUMBERS THIS YEAR”.. SO U GOTA HOLD THIS L EITHER WAY BRODIE

PRIDE IS A MUFUCCA.

I dont get it either. I've never seen a person want to be right so bad when they're clearly wrong. Like just own up to it, it wont kill you.

A GUY AT THAT SIZE WITH THOSE KIND OF HANDLES AND PASSING ABILITY DOESNT LACK “BASKETBALL SKILLS”

HE LACKS SHOOTING SKILL, YES, BUT THATS ABOUT IT

REALLY THO, THAT DOESNT EVEN MATTER IN THIS DEBATE .. DWIGHT LACKED “BASKETBALL SKILL” AND LED HIS TEAM TO THE FINALS

LACKING BASKETBALL SKILL DOESNT NECESSARILY MEAN U SUCK.

1 out of 4 from the field (and that shot was on an offensive putback)
1 out of 4 from the free-throw line
5 turnovers
4 rockbrain fouls.

This nikka had 5x the amount of turnovers as he did field goals. I don't wanna hear, or read anything about this muh'fukka EVER again.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Well...he was one of the best finishers in the post so that's why. Dude is an efficient scorer. He was a plus player offensively and defensively. Just admit you were wrong and keep it moving. And no 20/10 is not an easy feat.

He putting up similar numbers with 6 less minutes efficiently. This dude is a monster.

WOAT.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

I did NOT bring up the argument around his numbers, see, again, this is just reflective of you not being able to read the situation properly.

I'm not here to line up semantics over what constitutes being a garbage man; the point is this, he needs to be force-fed scoring opportunities because he doesn't have the skillset to create for himself on the regular:

- there's a reason why he tries to truck defenders in almost every 1v1 situation, rather than displaying any notable basketball skill
- there's a reason why he only shot 32 eFG% on jumpshots last season
- there's a reason why he was in the bottom third for all big men in scoring production on touches off passes in the halfcourt
- there's a reason why despite having a 'time of possession' equal to AD and LMA, he was still near the bottom in the league for big men in self-creation points
- there's a reason why he had the highest turnover rate out of all 4s, and yet didn't come close to balancing it out with offensive production; again, ranked poorly in self-creation points and only averaged 2.6 assists per game - yet had the third-highest turnover rate out of all big men - only behind Embiid and Cousins, both players who generate elite offensive production.

All that other nonsense you're talking is just generic, basketball-curvet to overcompensate for his lack of ability. It doesn't hold any value in this discussion.

@Sccit

When are you going to acknowledge that this post is the truth, and whatever nonsense you were posting is wrong?

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

How many times do I need to state - it doesn't matter what "numbers" he puts up if he's still the same player? Like I mentioned above -



"This is a typical offensive outing for Randle: 1-2 buckets on post-ups that he throws at the rim with little-to-no touch, and the rest of his points come from rolling to the rim, putbacks, and running the break - capitalizing on defensive breakdowns. And yet muh'fukkas are in here talking about how he's the second-best player in the draft."

Regardless of how many numbers he puts up in the box score, he's still going to have the same limited skillset - his numbers will be predicated on how many minutes he gets, and how many opportunities he gets at cleaning up (garbage-man duties) and the secondary-looks he gets from his teammates once the initial looks for the likes of AD, Jrue, Payton, Mirotic etc aren't there. He could average 8/8 or 15/10, it makes no difference if he's still doing the same shyt, and that won't change unless he adds more strings to his bow: jumpshot, post/counter moves, better touch, self-creation from different spots etc.

Again, this is one of the many reasons why y'all are brainwashed by the box score, because you're allowing yourselves to be blinded, letting the #s guide you, and not looking at what's taking place on the floor.

THERE WE GO WITH YOUR TYPICAL PRETENTIOUS NONSENSE “YOU DONT UNDERSTAND WHATS GOING ON AND I DO!!”

BASKETBALL IS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE WEIRDO....

RANDLE IS GUNA PUT UP NUMBERS, REGARDLESS. U GUNA KEEP ACTIN LIKE A LIL GIRL ABOUT IT WHENEVER I POINT OUT HE DOES NOW?

WE GUNA SEE WHO KNOWS BASKETBALL AND WHO DOESNT BY DECEMBER WHEN I BUMP THIS THREAD, MY FRIEND.

BY THAT POINT, RANDLE GUNA BE PUTTIN UP IMPRESSIVE STATS AND U GUNA COME UP WITH SOME DUMBASS EXCUSE LIKE “B-B-B-BUT OKAFOR IS PLAYING ON A BAD ANKLE!!”. I C U.

@Sccit
@Nima0614
@Dwight Howard

I told y'all muh'fukkas. Read the bold. And don't ever question me ever again.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

I dont get it either. I've never seen a person want to be right so bad when they're clearly wrong. Like just own up to it, it wont kill you.

Look at this pathetic, hypocritical fakkit.

 

[Sccit]

I WONDER IF UR GUNNA POST WHEN RANDLE GOES 25-10-5 NEXT GAME

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

And of course, this rockbrain still doesn't get it.

You mean the type of "special needs" where you fake trying to be a doctor (I mean shyt, the fact you couldn't come up with something more original speaks volumes), to overcompensate because you're too insecure to admit you're really slow?

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

This nikka just had the worst game of the season.
