Karl Towns is being productive on SECN. Just in case any of you wanna record it to watch later after the KG game.

Edit:

Final stat line: 12 pts (4-5 FG, 4-4 FT), 10 reb, 2 ast, 2 blk in 26 minutes. Yep, another nice game.

Great article. Pairing a Harden/Curry up with Wiggins would be outstanding. I think they would be tough for defenses to stop.

Phil Jackson is at the game scouting D'Angelo tonight.

Great fit as a triangle PG.

Russell's pedestrian February continues. Cooled as of late, but you can point that to living by the jumper as well as dying by the jumper. Only 20% of his shots come at the rim. I'd assume he was nervous also with Phil Jackson sitting fifth row scouting him with his own eyes.

Need Russell and Johnson to get it going again. My guess is they get it going in the tourney. Both too talented to stay like this.

I have not watched Russell play as of late. How are teams defending him?

About the same as they have been all year really. Maybe a few more traps thrown his way in P&R just to get the ball out of his hands, but nothing too earth-shattering. Russell just settles far too often for jumpers and runners. He's creative and skilled enough to get to the rim, I think, but he's almost overly trusting on his shot.
