Randle Twitter Battle
Randle must have been talking about Shorter in a tweet on Sunday, and one of the Sixers DP's fires back at him.

Ewwww DRAMA. This is a non issue nor all that interesting, considering how athletes go at it on social media now days.
Considering nothing on here even mentions what was said, or links to the tweets, is it worth posting?

Basically said don't compare Shorter to me, he isn't on my level. I think.
Shorter is bigger, and was able to beat the Illawarra Hawks in the crunch. Randle, not so much.

Shorter passes the ball
I'd take Shorter any day. Yes Randles stats indicate otherwise but the Sixers are better when the ball is shared around. Last year, everything went through Randle. Come finals time we were figured out in a series. Shorter also plays with heart on BOTH ends plus brings a cocky swagger to the team.
This years team can give it any way now, and I’m loving it!
Can you really chat shit if your name is Bijan?
Yes, you can. Particularly if the person you're talking to was scared to mention the name of who he was talking about.
I guess he does get 40 minutes a game to think about things to tweet on the bench

Who is Bijan? who starting the beef?
Dev and bench guys should focus on getting minutes and trying to play..twitter beef with other players particular high profile ones just isn't a great look for a young guy.
Its not a good look for anyone. See; Creek, Mitch.
Randle fired a shot, and Bijan saw it so fired one back. I say good on him. Jerome is talented and can play, but being humble is not the strongest of skills. Will be interesting to see if Randle replies, which I'd assume he won’t as he’s on his best behaviour until contract talks are done.

Shorter is a better player with the ball.
Randle wants the impossible shot as shorter goes for what's do-able.
One is a thrill seeker, the other is a competent no frills who gets the job done and isn't all about me
Randle couldn't get it done last season, and wasn’t re-signed (I’ve heard many rumours why)
