Surgery that causes him to miss time...while not a new ailment, complications could occur and surgery is never good for someone who before hand was saying it wasn't necessary.

Still no idea if it's necessary.... Has to have it checked, and Lakers will decide what to do.

Accepting is not really whining, is it
He may not have been very many people's preference, doesn't mean they can't be happy. He's still a good player and a good asset.
U wanna split hairs go right ahead bro do you but you think dudes wanna tank a whole season for Randle, definitely not.
They whined then accepted him because again what choice do they have, no do overs in the draft so it is what it is.
Same way some folks might not have the car or job they want but they just roll with it, doesnt mean they're happy does it ?

Not at all. It actually is fine for tanking purposes if he misses time, I just thought this prospect was supposed to be a building block. His limitations have already been discussed but him possibly having surgery on something that was supposed to be a non issue is disconcerning especially when Vonleh was sitting right there for the taking.

Split hairs? Accepting is almost the opposite action of whining.
No, nobody wanted to tank for a grand prize of Julius Randle. But the Lakers didn't tank as hard as they could have. So we knew the chances at a real grand prize was gone.
Anyway, the ones whining the loudest about Randle in here are guys who had ***** fits about tanking, the guys who called our fandom into question for wanting it. Not the pro tank guys like you tried to say.

Two directions... Keep Nash, or stretch Nash.
10 roster spots, assuming we go after 2 guys.

Yeah, I thought everything was about win-now with Mitch. December isn't too far into the season, but that doesn't really fit win-now to me.

You in full blown denial mode but imma let you rock cuz it's funny
Pmatic did a write up about why he doesn't want the guy , and CP didnt want him either and they were some of the most outspoken pro tankers in the thread but somehow I'm way off base
yeah ok The reason the anti tankers like myself are disappointed is because all we heard about is the gem/great player were going to get but instead we get a guy who seems decent but definitely not worth tanking for.
Long story short the tank plan wasnt worth it , teams shouldn't tank for average players.

lets not get into this again but IF we did a better job of tanking we could have gotten exum or smartThe ones who were pro-tank aren't the ones complaining about Randle. If anything, it's the opposite.
Dudes whine all year to tank , basically call anyone who disagrees stupid only to turn around and then whine about the pick we do get
You can call out the pro-tank guys if you want, but not for stuff we didn't do
Camron gif NOPE !
Most of the pro tank people wanted exum or smart, they did not want Randle but are accepting him because they have no choice.
That's why tanking is too much of a gamble imo , doesn't guarantee you'll get the player you want at all.
They're already trying to lay the blueprint to tank again next year too, I understand why I just don't agree with it.
most people here seem genuinely excited for randle though, so i dont see what the problem is
