Randle - another Cat with a monster game
- Thread starter wromanp7
- Start date
He appears to be something of a throw back player. Loves contact, loved to muddy it up. I predict that he turns out to be the third best player from that draft class behind Wiggins and Parker (I know, not much of a limb to go out on, but still).
i guess I should have clarified that I meant within the last 15 years years or so. Definetly a throw back player.
if he can motor on the defensive boards like he does the offensive boards he'd be the best rebounder on the west coast. he is an offensive beast facing up and kills the offensive glass. that effort on defense would make him a complete beast. jmho.
It sucked in '14 because for most of the season he was the only player who really played well all season. The rest of the team had yet to put it altogether. So every time he would get the ball, he was triple teamed. It got really frustrating. I knew once he got to the NBA and they didn't triple team and every possession, he was going to flourish.
People just don't realize how good Randle actually is. I was arguing this the other day on here. Some of our fans don't believe he's a star.
I think he is Cals most dominant player at UK. He will be an all star the kid is a monster.

To this day I still think something was wrong with him at the final four. I don't know if it was just nerves or he was injured but he wasn't himself for sure.
They said he was suffering from bad cramps in the pregame layup line prior to the UConn game, in case you missed that (or think it was something else). I suppose it could've been his foot.
I agree if he wanted it bad enough he would bulldog his way to the hoop. I would argue Cousins was pretty dominant. He was a force He is arguably top three big men in the league . Just imagine if he could have stayed on the floor longer in college and pros. If he could dial it back just a little on his fouls nobody could come
Close
He's much more aggressive than Wiggins. That may, over time, boost him up to #2.
Hope that Parker's knee heals, but for the time being, he, along with Embiid, are not playing.
So, thus far this season, he looks like the best player from that draft.

Offensively. On defense Kanter doesn't have a clue, and that is why Adams plays. If he took an interest in trying to be an average defender then he would get 35 minutes a night.
No need. I watched him own his position like no player has under Calipari. Name another UK player in the Cal era who was hounded and triple teamed in the way Randle was.
Not even AD.
I think he's been the most intense, underrated, and dominant player under Calipari while at UK. I've seen nothing that would lead me to believe he won't be a star.
I would put him behind Davis and Cousins. He is a Beast though love Randle.
i don't understand why he doesn't get starter minutes. Adams suck... Kanter is getting major rebound, and that alone should allow him to start. All he needs to do is rebound misses from Westbrook/KD and get it back to them.
I also think Randle has the potential to be one of the best, and better than Parker or Wiggins from his class even.
