During the regular season.

I trust you more than 1000 Chad Ford's. WTH did he do to go from a consensus top 3 when everyone said this draft was the best ever. To a maybe top 5, when now everyone is saying this class was overrated?

I'll be happy to answer the question, but please re-ask.

How did Randle, who led his team of young freshman to an outstanding tournament run, all the way to the championship, only to lose in heartbreaking fashion. Go from consensus top 3, to maybe top 5?

Okay.. I re-read.

His dribble is loose. His shot is slow and suspect.
His court vision is lacking.

He has great power, will, and determination... meh.

A PKM top 5 big board would be most welcome.

You like Vonleh? I could dig that. Smart? Meh. I know your not a Gordon fan.

Good question.

He measured well, tested well athletically, and played well in college.

Plus has intangibles (heart, hustle, hunger, will to win)

And he went to the greatest school with the best coach.

Meanwhile ALL of his teammates underachieved and still he carried them to the championship.

But he is not a quick jumper and cant go right so hes no good

I sense some sarcasm here or just some bs.

I didnt take these into consideration.

Good answer
 
He proved he wasn't the:

1. Athlete
2. Ball handler
3. 3 pt shooting
4. Passer that was advertised.

He lived off of bully ball, which he doesn't have as much upside with in the NBA given his height. He also raised questions about being genetically obese by posting a body fat % of 9.8. Not a bad player, but clearly of a different caliber than the projected top 4. Has tweener status and questionable upside. Wingspan of 7"0 is decent, but his height is crap. Doesn't have handles, passing, or lateral speed to play SF.


It would be a lot easier to teach Aaron Gordon how to shoot than to teach Randle d. Adequate D, based on his combination of position, athleticism, and measurements will be next to impossible.
