I dont think ive seen Randle smile before, dude doesnt goof around
Beasley can't even do what he's good at correctly. Randle has way more talent than him, he has multi facets to his game. It's funny how people claim to value this but when it's there they remain skeptical.
He smiles, but Byron and Kobe stay on his case.

So basically Lakers will have a lineup of 2 Kobes and a Nick Young? LOL

Great college starter
Re: "I don't want to be the next Shaq. I want to be the next Kobe."
Try to be next Barkley would be more realistic

He plays like Elgin Baylor. He has in no way proven he'll be as good all around obviously... but I've seen his scoring highlights and the way he tries to get inside and has the ability to absorb contact and wave his hands around all over the place with the ball in the air looks almost EXACTLY like Elgin Baylor footage. Someone should show this guy footage of Elgin and tell him to forget about BOTH Kobe and Shaq and keep playing like that.

Randle has some solid defensive plays for us throughout the preseason. When he gets PT.
I don't think he literally meant "play" like Kobe, he just wants to initiate his own offense and not have to be fed. It was a reply about him going from Coast-to-Coast.

i can see why............plus Kobe only needed a top 25 2nd best player in Pau to get to the finals. Shaq needed alltime guards for all of his. Penny, Kobe and Wade
Pau was only top 25, huh?

Yes. He had never even won a single game in the playoffs before teaming with Kobe.

You suggesting he was Top 15 or 10?
Let's not pretend guys like Ray, Garnett, Pierce, Bosh. All of those guys were considered better than Gasol at the time. And that's just out East.

Honestly, his game resembles Lebron more than Kobe or Shaq right now.

List 20 players that are better than 20/11 on good percentages (playoffs) in 09 and 10.
lmao @ Ray

his transition game sure does and the way he bangs in the post
he looks like he could easily be a 18-22 ppg scorer in his prime...he has so much strength and opposing SFs are not able to guard him in the post, you'd have to foul him a lot to keep him away from the rim, and he's been hitting his jump shot, so sagging off him isn't such a great idea either.
It was a great pick for us and the kid will beast as he gets comfortable playing in the NBA. He's one of the main reasons I didn't give up on the team and why I believe the Lakers could be a Playoff team.

Look moe.
Why don't YOU name me 20 players worse than Pau at that time. This is your claim, you back it up.
Anyway you slice it when the Celtic Big three got together in 08, Ray Allen was looked at as the better player.
