Did you actually WATCH any of the clipper games last year? I will post an article by the sports guy that i found especially entertaining that contained a little about Randolph in it. Its hilarious.
Randolph is a VERY TALENTED player. He is big, strong and has a very nice touch to about 16 ft. But he needs the ball and he does incredibly stupid things at times when he gets it. Is it a coincidence that no one wants him?

Nah, I didn't watch a game. I only have season tickets to the Clippers. I'd take a Zach Randolph on my team any day. You guys are acting as if he is the reason the Knicks sucked. Thomas ruined a whole league but Randolph is the reason why the Knicks sucked. The Clippers were an example of the model NBA franchise before Randolph got there. He single handedly sunk that team. The season before he became a starter in Portland, the Blazers weren't a bad team. The sank to 41 wins in his first year. Had nothing to do with two of their three leading scorers from the previous year missing 37 and 31 games and the third guy not even being there. Blame it all on Randolph that Portland sank to 27 wins the next year, even though they had eight guys that started 30 or more games and their leading minutes guys after Randolph were Shareef Abdur-Rahim, Damon Stoudamire, Nick Van Exel, Ruben Patterson, Theo Ratliff, and Darius Miles. Yeah, Randolph really disrupted THAT team and made them bad.
