I've been saying since before the draft, Randle is gonna be one huge draft bust. Makes perfect sense the Lakers drafted him.
Atleast they redeemed themselves against the same team. Not many teams have done that.

You want it to be one way.
But it's the other way.
It wasn't in the case. Your's was and buster you are not walking from that.
This, this I vow.
CHARGE!!!!!!!!!
The Bag stays in Texas.
6 is nonredeemable, scan. You'll be light one until the end of times.
'04 and '08 are also unredeemable.
With Kirby in it.
04 definitely was. The Lakers entered that Finals as one of the biggest favorites in Finals history, and Kobe the bed in spectacular fashion even while Daddy was putting in work. ing prime Kobe doing what Kobe does best.
Shooting 38% tbh.
No regrets after this year tbh. 04, 06 & 2013 should've gone our way, but hey you win some and you lose some. The Spurs have had a pretty decent run. I bet 28 other teams would kill to be in our position right about now.
But, it wasn't in the ing case, you cement headed stubborn thing, you. Yours was in there, locked up tight. You had to give it back. There is no comparison twixt the two events.
I'm about ready to lose my ing mind. Christ.
Only after Kobe set the example. Van ran him into the ground on National TV worse than the NBA did Sterling. It was a mob with pitchforks.
Then, after all of that, Kobe released the tape. You know, the one with the other guy.
We aren't the media and we ain't just heaping praise on Kobe while calling the Spurs old. That's media driven. Kobe choked it. Anytime you are in the finals and don't close the deal, you gave it back. Especially when you lose in spectacular fashion. It's the same and I won't let you say otherwise.
It was every bit as much in the Lakers' case as 6 was in the Spurs' case. Your regrets are your own.
Don't forget Karl Malone publicly exposing Kirby as a cuckhold to the media![]()
Which renders what Tim permitted to transpire that much worse. But, no, he was going to be a big shot, brazen it out. "Go ahead, Amy, you haven't the guts to turn me over like that. There is too much between us, too many good times, too many promises, too many and vows. And the children. You will not forsake our life, our love. No gd way, girl."
Let us proceed...
I just can't believe the way he got his cookie taken by ing Tayshaun Prince. It would be understandable now, but in his prime before he was saddled with the bag?
Ready to...
That ship has passed.
"Cookie?" Tim let that wrinkle headed gnome Battier take his, less than a year from mandatory retirement.
The 04 Finals foreshadowed the bag. We should have seen it coming.
Well, then by God you should have called the ball when I lit. Attaching your to my bag is a reprehensible act that will not be forgiven, Bum. I don't spit on you, but, I definitely break a good one in your in' face.
Boiled down a little further

Randle got chubby after his college stint, and he was gassed in the summer league games as you can tell. But with Lakers signing all these bigs such as Ed Davis, re-signing Jordan Hill, and Carlos Boozer, it's going to be tough for Randle to even showcase his skills and gain confidence, let alone see minutes on the floor.
Randle is fine. He is NOT Karl Malone or even the best recent Kentucky star (that would be A. Davis) but what he is is a talented PF that can run the floor, finish strong, passes and dribbles well (for his size) and should rebound well once he gets in shape. Everyone compares him to ZBO but a prime David West with a bit of Lamar Odom is more accurate. My concerns?
1. He has lost confident in his jumper and only took a few (missing them all) in the SL.
2. Like Lamar he is so left hand dependent. I only remember one shot he took (and made) with his right hand despite sometimes driving to the right of the rim.
3. His arms are short so he will despite decent athleticism and hops will struggle to finish over length. (that's why the ZBO comparisons are faulty)
4. Lakers acquired c/PF types so hopefully he gets the minutes he needs to develop ...
5. The Lakers have not been the best at developing a player's shooting with Meeks being the only recent example of a young player that improved his jumper with us.
6. He has quick feet, but with his lack of arm length defense is a concern. However he did block some shots that I thought he had no chance of getting to in SL ... so he will probably mediocre on defense he at least showed some "want to" which is more important than anything else.
