We started playing a more up-tempo style once Randle went down. As fast as we play now, we will have scored twice before Randle makes it down the court once.
If Randle comes back, he's either going to have to run like an Olympic sprinter on the court, or the current team is going to have to slow way down just to match him. My guess is he gets traded in the package for (fill in the blank) big fish Leon's looking to acquire.
I don't know where this idea came from that Randle can't run with this team. January is their best PPG since the OG trade.
It comes from watching.
He's slow. He pounds the ball until 2 seconds are left before passing. He rarely plays D. He only kept up because the current squad slowed down (some). But, we're flying now and that's just not what he does.
What on Earth are you talking about? The team literally had a faster pace with Randle than without. How can anyone say with a straight face that they slowed it down for him? And now we're looking at his inside game as a weakness? C'mon, man. Hate the guy, I don't care, but him not running with the team is factually false.
