I’m actually shocked he was averaging 24/10. I thought @Voice of Reason made a typo. Dude has the impact of a 13/7 player.

Crazy Russ with high turnovers > Tame Russ with more shooting.

We kept hearing how they wanted Russ to be Russ, but since the game about 3 weeks a go where he had 10 TO's....Russ clearly has been tamed, and whilst his TO's have dropped, so has everything else. Essentially now that Russ doesn't create, he brings nothing to this team.

For any chance to work, Russ has to be given freedom with the ball, has to be used as a screener and has to play fukking defence.

Again, Vogel isn't all at fault for this year(Roster construction is the number one issue)

but he does so much dumb shyt that's going to cost him his job. Playing Stanley Johnson only sixteen minutes last night?
The thing about Stanley Johnson is the front office still hasn't given him a full contract. With the reports of the FO already meddling with rotation requests (DJ, now allowing Westbrook to be benched), who's to say these cheap fukks aren't trying to minimize Johnson's value?

Is Vogel supposed to depend on a guy without a guaranteed contract then have him kicked to the curb?
