I posted this because this arguably my favorite Julius Randle game or at least I perfer when he gets his shots in this manner as opposed to all else. We lost the game but the thing that stood out to me was the statline of
– 30pts/12reb/6sts 14 of 21 from the field with **No 3s taken**. He did have 7 TOs
I always maintained that Randle is at his bests attacking/ rolling to the rim and using his strengths to back day players vs falling in love with 3s and contested jumpers. I understand the importance of shooting the 3 and how that can open the floor but I feel at times he settles to much and bails out the D and sometimes forgets hes the strongest player on the court.. I thought the Game 5 against the Cavs before he reinjured his ankle he was playing in a similiar style and was more aggressive
