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

[Rakim Allah]

Height w/ shoes
Jones - 6'9.5"
Randle - 6'9"

Weight
Jones - 252
Randle - 250

Wingpsan
Jones - 7'2.25"
Randle - 7'0"

Reach
Jones - 8'11"
Randle - 8'9.5"

Vertical
Jones - 34.5"
Randle - 35.5"


Yeah, they have nothing in common except height

They def have things in common just not in that video you displayed. Slow ass TJ.

If you don't think he can score in the league, go watch what he did to Draymond

That mid range J is going to be key in how good of player he'll ultimately be.

I didn't even like Randle before the draft, yall dudes so emotional

Posting HS videos is pure comedy too.

they have similar measurements but randle plays differently then t jones. better finisher around the rim, better at drawing contact and absorbing it, quicker release on his jumpshot (t jones has a long release) t jones is a better defender, both good rebounders. Imo randle has a much higher offensive ceiling. Randle is a much better ball handler and passer than Jones as well.

Well you are one helluva comedian with that Terrence Jones video you posted.

Both are faceup 4s, neither is a knock down shooter and Jones has better range on his shot. Randle will not be an all-star level PF, and if they draft Okafor all these Laker fans will be hating him within a few months because of his defense with Okafor's defense.

Well you are one helluva comedian with that Terrence Jones video you posted.

The hilarious thing in this is how quick you're going to advocate trading Randle when he and Okafor are giving up 50pts a game in the paint. At least Jones can defend

You are such a fukking joke.

These were the type of posts swagnificent made about Randle last year:

ALL QUOTES based on what i saw at kentucky.

i didn't know randle had a handle. i didn't know he had an explosive first step. i didn't know he had a face-up game. i didn't know he had the lateral mobility to guard 3s on the perimeter.

as a pure back to the basket big, he would be a bust. but he's shown alot more in the preseason and summer league last year that changed my opinion.

He could end up being a bust for all I know...I just didn't see the same things you saw in that Terrence Jones video you posted. Now measurements you posted that's a different story.

 

[Swagnificent]

He 100% can not play the wing. Ever.

He's a very good athlete, with a great feel for the game. He can dribble for a 4, and he passes very well. If you put him next to a defensive center, he can be a weapon. But he can't be a 3, don't play yourself. There is NOTHING about his game that has ever shown that he could.

ron artest played the 3 his entire career. i think randle can move as well as he did. and can develop a jump shot likee artest did.

He won't be a bust, but yall are acting like he's the second coming of Karl Malone and if the Lakers draft Okafor he's on borrowed time which makes this even more hilarious.


Jones is a faceup 4 that liked to take people off the dribble in HS and College, saying he and Randle are dissimilar is just dishonest

we're getting towns. better just get ready for the inevitable. i'd hate for you to get depressed at the draft after getting your hopes up.

Tyrus Thomas, Derrick Williams, Michael Beasley etc etc.


When you talk about a PF moving to the SF spot, it's because he's not good enough to defend his position.
