Ballers Wanna Ball, Rollers Wanna Roll, But We're Taking All--The Official 2017-2018 Lakers Thread

[Dwight Howard]

Enough with the excuses for Russell under performing. Goddamn man.

15/5/5 in 29mpg is promising any way to you try to spin it...you don't trade young players for underperforming unless they are straight up bust...players develop

 

[I AM WARHOL]

Smh the haters are pathetic.

I'd recommend a lot of you to listen to Zach Lowe's latest podcast with Arnovitz. Both guys said that league-wide, everyone is down on Russell. He is a very divisive player beyond the stan wars on here. This isn't some make believe stuff we're saying about Russell.

You guys need to learn to stop getting attached and overrating players just because they wear the Lakers uniform.

Eye test told me he was a bust.

 

[CantStop]

We don't know anything about his work ethic, you're assuming

so why wasn't he given the long leash by 2 coaches that you guys desperately feel like he deserved?

Breh hate clearly clouds your eyes if you think Russell is a bust

Nobody played big minutes in Luke's system. Everyone under 30mpg. Regardless, you were saying there is no way we should trade Russell for PG but your ok with trading him for that bum Lopez?smh

He was drafted ahead of several players who are much better than him. So yes he is a bust.

 

[Premeditated]

Can't wait for Russell to drop 40+ on this squad.

Front office dun fukked up.

We didn't trade him for Lopez. We traded him for cap space. DLo for PG made no sense because PG destroyed his value with his comments. What part of getting rid of Mozgov's contract is so hard to understand? If you're looking at it from the perspective that we traded him for "bum" Lopez(who averaged 20 ppg ) then that's on you for being ignorant.

You're right. Iverson, Blake Griffin and Hakeem are all bust too





dumbest logic ever
