Bring it!!! I can take it.
What a way to start the day. Time to hit the gym and sweat this negativity off.

Randle Okafor would be a pretty sweet long term plan in the front court.
Agree with you both. Russell was the right pick for the 76ers not the Lakers.
Do people think Russell or LaVine will have a better NBA career?

Now that's an interesting question. Both are intriguing players with high ceilings who just don't look ready for regular minutes yet, but I like them both. I think I will answer Russell, but Zach will be the better shooter.
Sorry about continuing to pile on Zach's defense last night, but Russell's eyes got really big when Ricky went out and Zach came in. I think he scored his first bucket in Zach's first minute.
Rubio's defense was terrific last night. I even saw him fighting through screens a couple times to challenge his man rather than going underneath. He's a fun player to watch when he's healthy.

Are people serious about being that down on Rissell? Ok. Russell has a better feel for the game. I would say his floor is probably better than Lavine maybe a lower ceiling. The key to Russell is he being able to be a PG. playing with Kobe and Clarkson either makes that harder or easier depending on how you look at it. I think it's harder for him. Clarkson looks like a legit starter potential young player. Props to him and the Lakers there getting a 2nd round gem. If Tussell can find his way that could be a pretty good backcourt that potentially compliments each other.

Agreed. Things are going to be interesting in LA this season. With Kobe. Lou Williams and even Nick Young... yikes. That's a lot of pull-up jumpers. Add in the very capable Clarkson and Russell is going to seem underwhelming during parts of this season.
Hopefully, they figure out a way to get the ball in his hands a bit this season to help his development. With those chuckers next to him though... ewwww.

One good thing for Russell is Byron Scott has been a big PG guy over the years. It's gonna be tough to blend that with all those high useage perimeter guys though.
