maybe randle may pan out, but hes far too raw and im just impatient with bscotts coaching methods. it would be different if bscott is actually playing him for extended periods of time so laker fans can get a feel of his strengths/weaknesses, but hes not doing it.
i just threw a hypotetical out there to see where you guys stand with ag. i love his game, his effort, hustle, things i rarely get to see w/ bscott's coaching. many laker fans are optimistic w/ randle, at times i see why, but more times than not, i dont. you guys have a nice young club and have quality at many positions. i liked the poise last night vs houston

Re: trade proposal
I'd pass on this deal also. That's no indictment on Randle, I think he's going to be a good NBA player for a long time. I don't see him as a superstar prospect, so I understand the interest in Gordon. Once the lightbulb turns all the way on Gordon can be a special player.

Re: trade proposal
I don't dislike Randle but this would be a pointless trade for Orlando imo.

Re: trade proposal
Maybe I'm crazy, but I think Gordon is producing better than Wiggins and Parker right now. Not to say he's a better player, but Gordon is showing major potential IMO, I think of him as a rookie still. He's as young as Towns/Okafor.

I think the lakers under B Scott is the only team where AG would play less minutes than in ORL, and i have to say NO to that deal

Re: trade proposal
I just want to point out that Gordon has made 1 more three than Giannis this season while shooting one less. He makes one more three next game and he matches his makes last year (and double Giannis' total makes last year). But I like how a lot of people think Giannis will be a good shooter, and Gordon will never be able to shoot. Gordon is a year younger, and IMO a better defender as well. Why is it that some people still think Gordon won't be a two way player?

Re: trade proposal
i would. lakers are probably gonna stay at 2?? barring that philly goes on a run.. the odds of lakers losing the pick seem great to me for some reaon. id rather have a guarantee of having A pick thru the swap... a lot of laker fans would disagree with me, but the lakers are handiccapped w/ those pick protections. of course id want a shot at ben simmons, but at this point and i speak only for myself, id rather have a guaranteed pick (thru a proposed swap) than to lose the pick just on the bounce of the balls. i can deal w/ lakers losing, thats not my issue. my issue is the development of the young guys and time on the court. bscott is a total buffon and is even taking it to the media saying drussell only knows 20% of his playbook. im fed up with this guy, showtime or not, he's my biggest hurdle that the young lakers have to deal with. so yeah, i'd swap randle for gordon for the right to pick swapDucklett wrote:cycl0nus wrote:would you guys do a straight swap: aaron gordon for julius randle.
