Randle just doesn't fit with the Ant Wolves. His effort wanes on defense when he doesn't get the ball for ISO offense. He attacks the rim with a very loose handle that is easily stripped.
Sure he plays bully ball and can get buckets, but they are detrimental to the "flow" offense. It feels like Randle has 10 turnovers every game, but maybe those turnovers are just easier to see. He really is a drive stopper on offense though.

A blessing and a curse. Force the miss, give up and offensive rebound. Force another miss, give up an offensive rebound.

You could actually say the same thing about Ant! The difference is that Ant has about 3X the gravitational pull of Randle. It's just tough to have two turnover prone ball stoppers out there. One is enough!

Sure, you could go there, but I won't. No NBA team is going to pick Randle to build around.

Mavs lost to Pels. Wolves really need to capitalize.

He's the worst. Weren't we disadvantaged in last year's playoffs anytime his crew was on our game?
