At age 26 Randle has finally made his 1st playoff appearance and boy is it awful.

14.7 on 24.1% shooting.

Lakers dodged a bullet once again. Muh yung core.

Phew...they could have had an All-Star on their hands. That would have been awful.

Let's say Randle has an awful series. Not a stretch, given how he's played so far. He was still a 20-10 player. He left the Lakers as a free agent. I do not see how what he did in NO could have made it harder for them to obtain AD in trade, if anything he may have made it easier to trade for AD or he could have been their third scorer. How is any of this bad? Randle may be being shown to be not be good enough to carry a team in the playoffs. That doesn't mean he's a bad player, it just means he might not be a great one.

And he could still turn it around this playoffs.

never got the randle hype. sure his 3 point shooting improved a lot, but he still overdribbles and has traits of a blackhole. for new york's sake, randle better turn it around. those numbers are awful.

I said a few weeks ago that he's a POOR MANS'S Chris Bosh. I was never a fan of Bosh's game either.

He still did improve, but he's no better Ayton despite his numbers

Outside of game 2 3rd quarter, he's been bad. The garden was waiting, begging for him to come alive. Game 4, c'mon bruh please

He was actually decent in the regular season, in the playoffs he’s been total dog shit..
Same with Barrett. Wake up you shook betas


Rose on the hand.. marvellous :rockon::bowdown:

Seems intentional tho so rose would look like superman in their respective series.

yes, his first three playoff games say he is not an all star talent. :rolleyes:
