Don’ be a Sabo while chasin’ 4 rings in LA: 2021-22 GOAT franchise Boss Angeles Lakers season thread
- Thread starter 2Quik4UHoes
- Start date
Russ was awful last night and has been bad many nights but some of y’all doin too much calling him one of the woat players. Whether you want to believe it or not, he’s been a positive more nights than he’s been a negative and I’m of the belief that he’s not the reason why we’re 19-19. Injuries and having the worst C rotation in the league is a way bigger factor. Honestly Russ not having a lob threat has fukked up his game in some ways. We need to get a big that can help the vertical game. Russ has also helped Bron tremendously this year in ways Schroeder couldn’t. How many times has Russ set up Bron for easy baskets?
I appreciate you for manning up and taking accountability. It takes a big man to do that....and I apologize for calling you an a**hole ...

All this damn crying for what? Its whole lot of good moves too like Malik Monk..Melo signing..of course Lebron being historically great these last few weeks but you wont see that just crying about russ and DJ smhh. If it wasnt for Lebron Lakers would be in the same spot just NO championship and still hoping the "young core" will grow up
They want to praise Bron and rightfully so but make sure you praise the guy who’s making his job easier. Even if you ask Bron off the record, he’d say just as much. Dennis on the other hand made Bron’s life so much harder than it needed to be by a)not putting pressure on the defense b) always pulling the ball back on fast breaks and c) not creating for Bron or AD.
I feel like trades are coming soon. Most likely before the deadline.

Byrie was an elite scorer and wasn't a turnover machine this tweet is actling like Bron has been paired with elite point guards and he wasn't ball dominant on every team he's ever played on
Bruh try reading the tweet again. AS A Laker. as far I know, Kyrie has never been a Laker.
well it would be pretty hard to do a trade after the trade deadline wouldn't it?

What I'm saying is what other teammate has he had in his career that he's allowed to handle the ball as much a he does Russ.
I don't recall Dwade having the ball as much as he does Russ
Wade in 2011, 2012, 2013 had a higher usage rate than Russ and so did Kyrie in 2016 and 2017. Russ probably has more possessions but the thing with Russ is that he goes quick(to his detriment at times), rarely does he pound the ball like other Bron teammates do. but that's not the point of the tweet. it's to say that as bad as Russ is playing at times, the perception of his game and the reality is not the same. He's making Bron's job easier in his Lakers tenure in just 24 games than any Bron teammate has ever done for him in a whole season

I understand the tweet.
I fail to see how 7 turnovers in a half/fumbling the ball on layups and bad decision making can help anyone win a basketball game regardless of a stat stating he has assisted him more than any other teammate (which I again say should be the case as any other teammate didn't have the opportunity to do it)
