What's new

2014-15 Rookies Watch

Julius Randle is shooting 35% for the preseason so far. The only game where he has shot 50% was the 2nd game against Utah. He's not just performing poorly, but laughably bad.

He's averaging 6 and 4, along with 3 fouls and 1.6 TO's all in 17 minutes. Lulz.
 
Oh, sorry…those were just his last 5 games.

He's averaging a much better 41% from the field, and 44% from the line.
 
I've said all last season long that Randle's floor is solid and his ceiling is limited. Still feel that way.. his numbers, to this point, will all get better and it won't take long.. but he's not a first and maybe not even a second option, ever.

Great assessment. He can be a solid player, but I don't see him as a star. I think ROY comes down to Parker or Noel.
 
They need to put Randle on the move for him to be successful I think. More Amare, less Malone as Locke would put it. Let him handle the ball a little bit too - he can create for himself and others.
