wasn't he a Jabari Parker> Julius Randle guy?

I thought that was always the debate. and the Jabari stans lost.

Randle can retire after this series and he will still be a bugger name in basketball than Jabari.

I'm also pretty sure (but not completely cause I've had him on ignore for 3 years) that one of his main criticisms of Randle back then was that he was effectively an undersized center who could only score inside. Yet he's now developed into an excellent facilitator and shooter who averaged 6apg and went 41% from 3pt and 81% on FT this year while hitting from midrange at a nice clip. In fact, nearly 2/3 of his shots this season were from 10+ feet and he shot over 42% from 10-23 feet. And even though he's shooting fukking terrible in this series right now, he's still hit 8 jumpers including 6 threes already, which completely invalidates the claim that Randle is just a lane-clogger.

I think randles biggest problem is low bball IQ

he should’ve been able to figure out the hawks defense and adapt by now

:russ: You're never gonna live down your "BuT lOnZoS +/- iS bEtTeR tHaN zIoNs" take huh? Just as delusional and furiously in denial of reality without any ability to admit how wrong and stupid you are as ill-scat crack. Julius Randle won less games with prime Anthony Davis and Jrue holiday in the West than Zion did, and he was 5 years into his career at that point; Zion just played his first 82 games this season, FOH bringing up your meaningless comparison of records in the Leastern conference where literally 10+ teams will be all below .500 at any point in the season. Randle never has and never will be better than Zion.
AD and Jrue missed 26 and 15 games. Why do y'all do this?

Let's be honest, this really isn't a Julius Randle thread. OP just made this thread as an excuse to suck Gil's dikk

Disgusting behavior
If you knew what you were talking about, you'd know this thread is satire. @The God Poster is one of those dudes who got fooled by Julius Randle, after all, he's a Lakers fan. He made this thread to put the jinx into action, and it's really having the opposite affect of what he intended.

Is that the character where I tried to be objective about Randle, whereas y'all Lakers fans were irrationally hyping up one of y'all players and fighting dirty?

Everything I said about him he's proving to be true. Why can't you acknowledge that? All those times you tried to get me to acknowledge I was wrong, ultimately ended up with me being proven right. Now you'll know for next time you try to get me to admit to something.

You’re notorious for ducking when wrong . A lot of the things you said about Randle he proved you wrong over the course of an actual season . 1 playoff series will not erase that.

By your logic @CHICAGO @steph_harden were right about Steph seeing as he didn’t get his team to the playoffs

You still believe Jabari >Randle :jbhmm:

How about Mudiay > Russ :jbhmm:

This playoff series proves everything I said about Julius to be true. I know you'll never acknowledge that, just as none of y'all fellow Lakers fans will either.

Regardless of any of this shyt every day you will wake up a pink bytch that's allergic to sunlight. You take loss after loss after loss and disappear like a lil pink bytch, you fukkin pansy. You will disappear if Luka and Jokic and both knocked out.

Look in the mirror and acknowledge the lil pink bytch staring at yo p*ssy ass. fukkin hoe. I'd stomp your teeth into your mother's front porch and piss on the back of your head. Lil bytch boy.
