Would you trade Randle for DeRozan?

No

Trade Scenario | TradeNBA

Ja Morant and Alonzo Trier would play well together with sniper Ellington then we get to dump Randle and get Iguodala and Hill.

Double No

 

[Aintnobodystupid]

I hope this moral isn't how the whole team feels.

It's a play on the Eric Bledsoe tweet that got him traded from Phoenix years ago.

I’ma keep it real with you chief... can’t think of a player i wouldn’t trade Randle for. Including Kevin Love.

Na, not love, not with the antics. I just think DeRozan could be a role player off the bench and we could still run with rookies over Randle.

DeRozan would start. But he would make the team better exponentially. Literally anybody we bring in who can shoot and make Morris play the 4 opens the floor for everyone else. More Mitch lobs. More RJ drives. More playing time for Knox. It’s not about Randle personally.

Can't wait...

Im not upset we got RJ but Ja is something special. Hes got great point guard and offensive skills, hes already real smooth and effortless with it. One of his first games he blocked Kyrie and outplayed him in clutch moments to help the Grizzlies beat the Nets. Hands down best rookie

RJ will have a great career too though hes been showing us more the past few games

After having high hopes for guys like Fultz and Smith, I was fully skeptical on Ja. I’m glad my other prospect picks are at least all starting to shine though. Culver, Garland and Clarke are gonna be good.

I was all aboard the Ja train

wish we had him

RJ is gonna be good too but I feel like Ja is gonna be better

Difference is Ja has the keys, RJ doesn't
We haven't gotten to see how good RJ really is because the offense doesn't run through him like it runs through Ja
For example tonight against the Jazz the offense is running through friggin Payton and Bullock
(wtf?) and they are freezing RJ out again
Imagine how different things would be if the offense was running through RJ from day 1
Ja is definitely the better rookie this season (he's my rookie of the year and it's not close)
but that doesn't mean RJ can't end up being the better player in the long run
It could go either way

 

[Deep_Black_Conscious]

RJ looked unstoppable in the 3rd against an elite Lakers defense but he has only 1 shot in the 1st quarter?
Payton already has 6

It's not RJ holding RJ back it's these selfish vets

I hate watching this team with the way they use the young players

 

[ikbm]

I'd rather watch frank ntlikina crash and burn then meddle in mediocrity with payton
at least that way we can completely assess and move on in entirety away from him. if he dies he dies.
payton aint taking us no where...and if he plays well....he's playing his way off this team anyway

 

[Deep_Black_Conscious]

Team looks instantly better with Portis and Payton out
