Who would have thought that Randle, who was once labeled as a "tool man" by the Lakers, has now become the top striker in the Western Conference Finals? What's even more ironic is that he led the Timberwolves to eliminate the two major traffic teams of the Lakers and the Warriors, and used his strength to interpret what it means to "If you ignore me today, I will make you unable to reach the top tomorrow"!

"They asked me to shut up and grab the board!" Ball Brother revealed that Lakers' locker room secret Xin

Bulls guard Lonzo Ball recently broke the news on the podcast, revealing the outrageous operation of the Lakers' treatment of Randle back then: "The coaching staff said in front of the whole team, 'You just keep grabbing rebounds, pick-and-roll, don't do anything else', and I exploded on the spot!" Ball Brother said bluntly that Randle was obviously the most comprehensive player in the team, but he was pressed to be a blue-collar worker, and even his teammates couldn't stand this operation.

Netizens commented: "The Lakers' traditional skills - use the all-around forward to 3D, and use 3D as a water dispenser administrator."

From "The scapegoat" to "Wolf King 2.0", Randall slapped in the face

Look at Randall's data this season: averaged 23.2 points + 9.8 rebounds + 5.2 assists, and he repeatedly rode alone at critical moments. Especially in the series against the Lakers, he faced the James-Eye combination's 34 points + 15 rebounds, and directly nailed his old club to the pillar of shame. What's even more outrageous is that the Lakers disliked him for "no three-pointers", but now his three-point shooting percentage has soared to 38.7% - it turns out that it is not that he can't make a shot, but that he was not allowed to make a shot back then!

The Lakers management was ridiculed by the crowd: delay Yingge delays Randle?

This wave of revelations has brought the Lakers management to the forefront again. Fans found out the old account: Randle was let go and only exchanged for air, and signed the "Glass Man" substitute for 120 million yuan in four years (there is a certain center here); when training rookies, they either suck the seedlings and encourage growth, or they were killed on the bench. Some netizens joked: "Auntie Jenny's team has always the inverse proportion of her talent to her training ability."

The Western Conference Final Fight against the Thunder, Randall said harshly: I should have played like this long ago!

Randall, who has now entered the Western Conference Finals, rarely expressed his thoughts in the face of the camera: "At the Timberwolves, the coaching staff told me 'do what you want', which is completely different from that time." Timberwolves coach Fincher even more Versailles: "We just let him play freely, but I didn't expect him to be able to carry to this level." The most heart-wrenching thing at this moment may be the Lakers fans: seeing their abandoned players push the new DPOY Gobert to the second-in-command position, they can only silently broadcast a song "Decent" on demand.

Randall's story is very similar to a cool workplace story - he was PUA in the former company and became a choreographer, and after changing jobs, he became a top leader in the industry. Perhaps the Lakers should reflect: Why do young people who leave always explode? Is it because the players are not good, or do you know how to use them? Do you think the Lakers delayed Randle back then? Who will be the next one to be delayed?
