correct. Ricky stated that those were the two best assets and russell and young were the worst. I would rate the assets

1.Russell
2.Rubio
3. 1st round pick
4. Young

is that wrong?

How is Rubio or a 1st round pick a higher asset then Russel?

Lol. I was wondering the same thing. No shortage of silly ideas I guess.

What has Russell shown in the NBA? Not much. IMO I'd rather have Rubio over Russell and an unprotected 1st over Russell. I was never high on Russell and watching him this preseason made me think he's probably not one of the top 10 players in this draft. I also think the chemistry with Rubio on the team is much better than the chemistry with Russell would be. Not a fan of guys who put out a lot of bravado, he's a Me guy who wouldn't fit well on a We team. Also, not a fan of guys who don't play good defense. Let the Lakers keep Russell. We'll be fine without him.
