Although the assist numbers are similar, PJ3's passing game is substantially more fluid in my opinion. PJ3 is a smooth offensive player, and he has better ball handling and passing skills than Randolph. Either way, if he ends up being the player we choose, assuming he wants to play in Toronto, I think he would be a great fit.
I have nothing against PJ3 so I'm not going to spend much more time on this but I'm not sure if you watched those highlights or not but Randolph has pretty darn good handles for his size and there were a few parts that highlighted that with crossovers and his ability to go coast to coast....2 things I can't remember PJ3 doing nor do imagine it would look very good trying. There are a number of HLs on Randolph you can watch but he actually looked VERY polished himself and looked like a freak of nature prospect that truly moved like a guard with PF height and length hence the huge disappointment that he is cuz he lacks the mind/heart to fulfill his potential.
I actually think Randolph looked FAR more fluid dribbling then Jones does

...and again I'm having a hard time understanding how he's a superior passer with the same numbers but maybe I'll give you that despite there's no real logic to it and Randolph based on stats seemed to be the superior prospect in every other category.
