Does Julius Randle Help or Hurt Minnesota?

- The Minnesota Timberwolves Just Traded for Julius Randle. But how exactly does Randle fit in Minnesotas offense. Can Julius Randle coexist with Anthony Edwards? Or does his limited floor spacing and heavy on ball usage make him a clunky fit?

Appreciate it
@@thekidshere6955 yea keep it up your becoming one of my favorite basketball youtubers
It’s funny wolves 🐺 fans have no idea how much better they just got. You’re welcome for the Dogg Mentality, Leadership, and workman culture that Julius and DVO will provide for your team.
Oh as a wolves fan I do.
Last year when kat got hurt for 30 plus games we kept winning and the offensive rating went up. Because of how well naz reed fits with ant. We got better
Also as a Wolves fan I do haha. Kat has not dog in him and has led the league the last 4 years in offensive fouls
@@tylerkaiser637 that and look at how he preforms in the playoffs. Yes round 1 last year help defensively but what about against the Mavs . He shot like 13% he’s talented don’t get me wrong. One of the most talented bigs in the league, but he can’t body anyone up in the post.
Now we have a big man that can actually do big man things alongside perimeter creation AND we get Donte??? Man this trade is amazing!
@@kgtd2160exactly... + the trade means we won't lose NAZ & NAW...
His best lineups will be staggered when Rudy sits & Reid plays the 5.
If I'm Minnesota I'm pairing Ant's minutes with Rudy's to give me maximum defensive impact while maintaining a good offense while also pairing Randle's minutes to Reid's 5 minutes as much as possible - which should be around 15 min a game. Reid should get around 30 minutes a night being Randle's backup too. To be honest wouldnt be surprised if by midseason they have Conley off the bench while starting DDV because with Randle you don't need Conley's ball creation as much.
Off the bench they have depth - Dillingham plays the point but I'd probably redshirt/low minutes + G league him, Alexander-Walker can play 1-3, DDV can play the 2/3. Joe Ingles can play 3/4. Bates-Diop can play 3/4. Reid can play the 4/5. They certainly have 9 guys who they can depend on for playoff minutes in their rotation.
respectfully as a timberwolves fan, mike conley is a non-negotiable starter
@@yonas2695respectfully no one cares what u are😂. Donte can easily play the one and way better than Conley
@@justinholland6132 straight up wrong but alright. Conley is the only true pg on the team wdym. just cause ddv “can” play pg doesn’t mean he should start over conley
@justinholland6132 Mike (Byte, Byte) Connelly is no slouch. But maybe at this point in his career Divi is better. However who gives an F. We have both and that is a major positive for this team. They lacked that in the playoffs. They also lacked that second scoring threat. Divi can def do that but not sure if he is going to be consistent at it. I feel he can but time will tell. Randle is a great player just not sure how he fits with Gobert. To have your 3rd highest paid player coming off the bench seems like a bad decision. Though I do like that idea better then him starting next to Gobert.
This is the first post I've seen that acknowledges Randle's passing and playmaking impact in the Wolves' rotations. I'd go a step further and say the player you want to stagger his minutes with the most is Ant. His passing and rim pressure will fill the hole Ant leaves in the offense. If anything, his fit with Dillingham will be even better since he would benefit from being more on-ball than he would be with Conley (and Ant) on the floor.
Also there's nothing wrong with having your third highest paid player off the bench. The Spurs ruled the league for a decade doing that with Manu.
2nd worst trade in Knicks history. I'm a Wolves fan now because of this
Def help! Whatchu think tho bro!?
U mean the Mavs? Against the Mavs!?
If Randle become a better shooter he’s elite minus the turnovers
I though you would talk about His defense...
I just subscribed to your channel. I think you're going to get even better at covering players and other topics. I especially love how you show some love to my Timberwolves. I wonder if you'll do a video for either Donte or Joe Ingles?
I don’t think his floor spacing hurts they will get up off that Gobert contract before next season and then you can build off Naz Reid
Helps 💯% he’s a 20 and 10 player is over son 🏀🏀💯🏀
Randle is not a good player and a lazy defender
Great video! Thank you!
Ngl I kinda see why they did this trade now. I think it makes sense from a cap perspective, if you’re gonna trade KAT, you might as well do it while his value is still high and I kinda like the pieces and the mentality they’re going to bring. I also feel like this move widens our window to make the full run and we still have really high potential contributors down the road with Dilly and Shannon.
At first I thought, classic T-wolves move to blow up our team, but there’s a chance this could be really good.
Only thing I worry about is Ant wanting to leave because of this type of thing. Really feels like we should have given him a heads up but I’m sure Finch will take care of it
Why would Ant leave, he’s getting paid the super max after this contract is up and it’s his team. Tim Connelly will make sure ant will also compete with any players added.
I’m honestly disgusted by Julius Randle’s defense what 3-4 isn’t a ok- good defender at the least it’s basically mandatory in the modern nba
What about his defence
i think randle should be a sixth man
Lmao
I agree. The team fit is fluid that way. Frankly, he doesn’t have the cache rn to where it’s a disrespectful ask
@@michiganlover12he was literally an allstar last season. He has all the cache in the world
Randle a good 1v1 player, but his playstyle ain't winning no championships, especially if you are supposed to be the 2nd scoring option.
I don’t know why like Julius Randle he’s a power forward ( typically need/ expect a pf that’s good at defense unlike a 1-2) he’s not good defense, can’t shoot and takes ball possessions for medicore post ups especially during the post season his efficiency gets even worse much more compared to a lot of “stars”
CAuse he is a great rebounder at 10 per game. There are NBA players taller than Randle that cant even grab 10 bounds.
@@emersonssbb ok rebounding is important combined with good defense like what OG and Aaron Gordon does. I dont like PF or SF that can’t play defense those 2 are supposed to be the best defenders or the C. Especially in this modern nba u need a defensive glue guy forward that’s 6’7” -6’10” that can’t gurad multiple positions and anchor a defense like AD OG Jonathan Issac even naz Reid is closer to that than Randle is. PF that’s can’t play defense doesnt lead to winning
@@Titan2User OG is not a good rebounder he only averages 4-5 Rebounds per game. Thats why Josh Hart is playing Power Forward for the Knicks he grabs 8 Boards per game. Power Forward is not required to play defense but you need to be a good rebounder to be a Power Forward.
@@emersonssbb PF is needed for good defense who ever is the low man or weak side helper needs good defense.
@@Titan2User Peja Stojakovic was 6"10 but he was a poor rebounder so he was small forward.Zion Williamson is 6"6 is Power Forward.Guess why thats right he grabs 7-8 rebounds. YOu arent the coach though the coach makes decision on who plays what position.
I’d much rather have Jonathan Issac. Julius Randle is such a horrible pf and doesn’t fit into an offensive takes away ball possessions from guards and he’s a forward that cant play defense im disgusted at 3-4 that can’t play defense their basically useless unless they can’t shoot which he can’t
The wolves have built a team straight out of the 90s/2000s. Highly doubt it's going to work
