Randle averages as many points, and MORE rebounds than Bam...in the NBA!

Bam is an 18 year old kid who is halfway through his freshman season.

I'm sure that we'll be back to having rosters full of Sheray Thomas type players after Cal leaves...

Randle was great, but he struggled too during his season here.

Yeah, I see the numbers, and Randle seems to be the easy choice. But does anyone else remember that by about this point in the season every team had figured out that Julius had one move? ...right handed, into the lane, spin, fall away. Not saying Bam is doing much to create his own shot either. Juat that I remember us having issues once Randle kinda became one dimensional.
That's one move more than Bam has shown. Plus, Randle was a beast on the boards.

Here's the problem with Bam:

Double-doubles

Bam - 3
Randle - 24
Cousins - 20
Davis - 20
Jones (freshman) - 13
Noel - 6
WCS (sophomore) - 6
WCS (junior) - 7

Pretty sure Towns had several double doubles also

Randle in college . Bam at this point in his NBA career. But Randle was the 4th best big Cal has had and that is impressive. I would rate Bam #6. 1. AD 2. Cousins 3. Towns 4. Randle 5. Jones 6. Bam

Man wtf.

Bam isn't even the best big on a team with limited bigs. You've got trolling down pat or you're delusional. I hope you're trolling.

If the op's goal with this thread was to get Bam hammered then well done. If it wasn't then it was a stupid question. Either way it's a pretty ignorant thread but it fit's in well with most of the tripe here.

You know the deal, pick one and why.

Randle- 15 PPG, 10.4 Reb, 70.6 FT, 1.4 Asst, .76 BS. All-SEC (1st team), SEC Freshman of the Year, 3rd Team All-American

Bam- 13 PPG, 6.8 Reb, 60.5 FT, .87 Asst, 1.6 BS

Obviously Bam's season isn't over. I was just wondering how they stacked up.

Randle and not even close. Randle was constantly double and triple teamed.

Randle was an absolute beast at UK. Never saw a double team he couldn't beat and triple teams had trouble containing him. And he was 18 as well. This is an asinine comparison at this point. As I've said over and over, Randle is by far the most underrated player Cal has had at UK. If Bam can lead this team to a title game like Randle did, I want to see it.

Rosanne Barr or Kaylee Hartung???

Pick one and why...
Barr-- 5'3 200lbs, comedian, rude, 50 plus years old
Hartung-- 5'2 120lbs, reporter, beautiful, 30 plus years old

Obviously, Barr is taller and bigger but Hartung is still developing. What happens in the dark in Vegas, stays in Vegas.

Op should have made this a poll so we had numbers to back up how dumb of a question this was

I loved Randle but he's not here anymore...

I just feel that this thread is really being unkind to Bam and I don't see any point to it.

I guess insulting Bam (yes there are a lot of insults in this thread) is really gonna do us some good going forward?

I just want to at least want to be kind enough to our players to prevent future players from going elsewhere.
