Randolph again dominated tonight

29 points 9 rebounds on 12/22 shooting :thumbsup:

I am telling you, this kid will be an All-Star. Most people will not realize how good he is though untill All-Star break when they take a look at everyone's stats and see that he is averaging better than twenty points and ten rebounds a game.

 

[jbbKing James]

Hussle, heart, aggression, touch.

This kid as it all

 

[Sir Desmond]

He's always shown signs of this sort of breakout season, but hadn't had the chance before this year. An absolute beast

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Sir Desmond:</div><div class="quote_post">He's always shown signs of this sort of breakout season, but hadn't had the chance before this year. An absolute beast</div>Indeed. I remember one night in Memphis he scored over thirty points and grabbed over twenty rebounds, but he was benched almost half the game for Wallace.

This kids a fantasy pimp as well as a damn fine player.

No he doesn't. The Blazers have a potent forward combo in their lineup with Wallace and Randolph, and they'll be able to exploit it against many teams, especially in the eastern conference. Wallace has an inside-outside game, while Randolph is primarily a post player. How does he make Wallace expendendable?

 

[magicfrankie]

Wallace is not a pure SF, which could cause matchup problems defensively. If they can trade him for a good SF, they will think about it if Randolph keeps playing like this.

Damn Meeeeeeeeeeeee!

I bought a pack of basketball cards last year where there were three autographed cards per box. I opened one up and got Zach Randolph! I didn't think he was going to be good and i thought nobody heard of him so I think I got rid of him! I got to try to look for it.

Anyways, this kid keeps surprising me. King James, was right, this kid has it all. He is one of the stars in the NBA's next generation.

I thought Vin Baker would win CPOY, but I may have to change my choice.

Remember though, this is assuming he keeps that pace up. It'll be harder to get to the 20 once Bonzi Wells is back in the thick of things down there.

Right now you are really underestimating Randolph. He is very consistant, he has just never been given the time. So what if Bonzi gets back in the thick of things? It won't mess up Randolphs game the slightest bit.

I'm not underestimating Randolph at all. He's a great player in this league. I'm just saying, that, once Bonzi gets going again, Randolph could drop to the 3rd scorer and his points might go down. That's all I was saying. We'll see though. Maybe Bonzi will cut his shots down a bit for now. But, if Randoph can keep getting the touches he deserves, I don't see any reason why he can't be a 20/10 guy.

 

[Sir Desmond]

Randolph won't drop to third scorer unless it's through his own poor form. In the West you need a big guy who can score down low, and there's a reason they've moved Sheed to SF. Bonzi will be 3rd option

Yup. Added to that, Randolph has all the mobility you'd want in a PF. Despite his build, he can move like Garnett and TD, which helps undescribably when he's moving under the post - Zach has an awesome post game.

Like touched on above, Zach will be one of the stars of the game for the next decade.

i agree...why waste a guy's talent? and it's not as if they're playing the same position

 

[Sinobas]

Who'd have thought, after all these years, we'd be wishing Zach Randolph were on our team rather than Aldridge, and Roy would be long retired.

 

[KingSpeed]

Who'd have thought that he'd be getting his JERSEY RETIRED (by ANY team) after the way he played for the Knicks and Clippers? Congratulations, ZBo. Way to go, Memphis.
