Randle and his T-Rex arms are grabbing close to 10 boards a game. Can Blake teach how to get shots inside the paint? My one concern regarding Randle coming out of college was those T-Rex arms. You are not facing the length and athleticism in college that you are in the pros. He struggles mightily to get good looks off inside.

Yeah, it's an issue when they go pro.

But, at least Randle is showing effort.

He and ZBo are the complete antithesis of each other physically.

But, That's the type of game I see Randle playing in a few years.

ZBo is slow, not very athletic and his arms are so long that he can scratch his feet standing straight up.

But, he was a load in the paint and h ad a sweet jumper.

Randle can get there.

Rebounding is not about height or jumping ability. It's one of those skills where positioning and sheer will can help you become a great rebounder. Dennis Rodman and Charles Barkley are two examples of guys who knew how to use their bodies and a lot of times just out hustled people. Kevin Love is another guy who knows how to use his body and understands positioning to get rebounds and he barely gets off the ground.

Yes, you are correct.

Blake has averaged 9 before.

So, he can do it if he wants.

He's to concerned with the highlight real.
