Remember when the Coli thought Jabari Parker > Julius Randle?

@ the thought of gil having 4 friends.



Matter of fact, does Parker even have 4 fans? Think about it brehs, if this thread didn't ask and LWO wasn't giving this kid some relevance, he'd get absolutely no shine on the Coli. No one would make threads about him, no one would talk about him, no one would notice him. Hell, even @Malta and @Gil Scott-Heroin have said they ain't even real fans of him and @Bilz is only here to hate on the Lakers. This guy ain't got ANY fans. And what does that tell you? That tells you he ain't shyt. Every other young upcoming star has plenty of fans from Embiid to Towns to Wiggins to Porzingis, etc. This guy ain't got shyt because he AIN'T shyt. This is a fact no one can dispute. :shrugkobe:

Damn, this is all facts. Literally no one on this board is defending him because they like him. They don't even like his game. He's everything @Malta hates. He only reps him because Randle is a Laker. Imagine being a fan of an overweight oaf who can only do 1 thing and can't even do that well.

You don't have to be a fan of a player to acknowledge his ability. Perhaps y'all Lakers fans could learn from that.

If jabari could create like Julius, maybe he would get to handle the ball as much...but he doesnt so

Parker is the new Carmelo.

I appreciate Towns, Wigigns, Porzingis, Embiid, and hell even Giannis who is on his same team. There's a reason no one is repping Parker.

@Gil Scott-Heroin said the reason Jabari doesn't handle the ball as much is because of Dellevedova.

You think anybody would be repping Randle if he wasn't on the Lakers?

I would think Randles game was no matter what team he played for. You are arguing on his behalf just because he's a Laker.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

And yet he's still generating more offense than Julius is despite not having the ball in his hands as much. What does that say about Julius?

I would. I was a fan of him at Kentucky.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

@Gil Scott-Heroin said the reason Jabari doesn't handle the ball as much is because of Dellevedova.

I said Dellavedova and Giannis, because they're the two main playmakers on the team. It makes sense for Jabari not to have the ball in his hands as often as them (not because he's not a good passer/playmaker), because he's the better off-ball player and can stretch defenses more; giving them and the team as a whole more room to operate with.

Julius is doing his basic ass dribble handoffs because Luke has to find a role for him on the court else he'd just be clogging up the lane, because he can't score and shoot for shyt.

10 assists off basic hand offs. So basic so how come I don't see more bigs getting triple doubles?

Laker fans don't just stan all Laker players, that ain't how it works. Quite a few fans hate Clarkson, all of used to hate Smush/Kwame, and some people even didn't like Pau.

You can't just say we support Randle because he's a Laker when history shows us that Laker fans don't just stan all things Laker.

Dirk on Randle: "He puts the ball on the floor like no other power forward in this league"
"He puts the ball on the floor like no other power forward in this league," Dirk told reporters after the game. "His future is very bright."

Gasol is the latest person to compare Randle to Draymond Green
“He’s playing really well and is aggressive. He has talent and has skill and he’s hungry. He’s young. He’s putting up some real good games,” Gasol told Mark Medina of the Orange County Register of Randle before. “It fits their style perfectly, kind of like Draymond Green in Golden State. He’s a guy that can pass the ball, penetrate and will probably improve his jump shot as he goes forward as well. Great rebounder. He’ll be great. In the system, he’ll continue to flourish and evolve into a very good player.”

Warriors' Draymond Green says Julius Randle can be better than him
Green believes Randle "can be real special," raving about his length, athleticism and playmaking. Green also said he considers the comparisons between him and Randle "cool." Those comparisons have been drawn more frequently with Randle's expected emergence under new Lakers coach Luke Walton, who spent the previous two seasons as a Golden State assistant.

Will Randle validate those comparisons?

"I think he can. I also think he has the potential to be better," Green said. "With the God-given gifts he has, he has the potential to be better. I'll continue to grow. I'll never stop working and I'll continue to get better. But what is he, 21? That's a lot of time to continue to grow."
