"....playing cautiously bc of his sore left knee" His performance was subpar even when healthy. If playing cautiously means jacking up threes...
Sigh... excuses are unacceptable at this level. If he needs to play cautious he needs to sit out until he's fully healed. I rather give his...
Well he's definitely not the player I expected. I thought he'd be a great shooter but he's been a great defender. I slightly prefer the latter so...
His per-100-possession averages are 40.7 pts, 13.7 rebs, and 6.6 blks. According to bkref, no player has met that statistical threshold since...
Those 2 turnovers in the 3rd turned the momentum to the Bulls.... and that ill-advised 30 footer down the stretch..... cringe-worthy game from...
^ That too :D
It seems to me like he's not used to defenders closing out on him so quickly. His shots seem rushed because he's not getting the spacing he got in...
:Laugh:
I was very optimistic and admittedly probably a little insane.
I do too.
Yes, games like the last one is where I see the superstar potential. And I know he can string together a few of those games (post-ASB, summer...
I hate to be a downer, but I've always been concerned with Russell's mental make-up, whether the issue being immaturity, ADHD, or lack of focus....
x2 and welcome to this forum :clap:
Scratch that, if we make it out over .500 after our next 5 games, we're a playoff team. Spurs, Bulls, Thunder, Warriors, Warriors? Wow.
Yeah if we're over .500 after that stretch we're making the playoffs.
Honestly I don't really have a problem with Luol expect that his shots have been a bit short. He moves well on offense, he's been a good defender...
Great game by Russell last night. Hoping this is the first of many.
Hmm, we have the best bench in the league so I wouldn't want to mess with what's working. I'd experiment starting Calderon and sliding Russell and...
Maybe I should raise my projection to 50 wins.
Yeah we're all hoping for Russell to succeed, and it's OK to be critical of his play.
