Watching these Western Conference teams, you realize how hard Randle and RJ have to work for their points and it doesn't inspire much confidence. At least they're workers so I expect them to come back better next year.

Not saying that either would go off like this, but put them on a team with jokic and either would score a helluva lot easier

they're aaron gordons on denver but without the defense. they'd get 6 shots a game.

Jesus!!!!

I remember pre draft the knock on him was that he can’t be a winning player and he plays defense like Kanter. He’s completely changed the narrative. Very happy for him

In fairness the Lakers are playing never-was-any-good Drummond and washed Gasol at the 5. So his job has been pretty easy in this series. But yeah I never expected him to become this good defensively. Credit to him.

I wouldn’t say it’s been pretty easy. He’s done a phenomenal job on guarding AD. AD is one of the best bigs in the league

Have been rooting for the Blazers but I wouldn’t mind seeing Ayton vs Jokic in the second round.

Melo would have helped us in that Hawks series lol.

I know they are countrymen and teammates on the national team but how do Campazzo and Vildoza compare? Campazzo is pretty good and if Vildoza is as good as him then the Knicks have got a steal of a deal getting him on the salary they did for 3 more years.

Ayton’s best games of his career are against jokic. Would love to see them go at it again

C'mon if RJ doesn't have to create and isn't near the rim - behind the 3 point line he is money.

36 year old Melo having a better first round than 26 year old Randle... no substitute for superstar talent, regardless of age.
