Julius Randle

I was really high on Randle. I was rooting for him to be the pick. I still am curious about how he will turn up to be. But I'm glad the Jazz drafted Exum. Because exactly the opposite of Randle, I was down on him, saw him overrated and then I realized he was rockingly fast. Randle has time to reach a certain level of BBIQ, especially down low force plays might be a trouble for him like Kanter, so he would need to keep his head up and see his teammates (is that an infection you get caught in Kentucky court?), but I can see an at least good level of NBA career for his future.

Yep.

I could him becoming a better version of Paul Millsap if he develops a similar skill set, but that is a big if and far from a guarantee.

Agree.

Randle will be a productive player. Might even make an all-star game or two. But he's not going to be a top-5 player at his position. He would have been a a "safe" pick for Utah - had they believed Kanter was a bust.

On the other hand, Exum is truly a big gamble. With his size he can be an elite PG - or he can be a bust. Have to give Greg and Dennis credit for taking a HUGE gamble. Utah used to be a risk-averse franchise. I think we've seen some bold moves and major changes to the organizational structure and focus.
 
I remembered PKM saying at the start of the college season that Randle can knock down some 3's.


Unfortunately Calipari never let him shoot that shot - it's a real pity because I really think an inside/outside game can really turn him into a pretty special player in the NBA.

Yeah, that info was, like, really inaccurate
 
Randle has a 3pt shot worth working on.. but not one he should be shooting right now.

Kanter is the one that should be shootin the rock from downtownz.
