Before tonight his average for 4 games was:
9 PPG
5 RPG
3 APG
5 To's per game
7% 3pt shooting
30% FG shooting
Russell really showed off his mid-range. He'll be a midrange assassin in a few years on par with Chris Paul.
It went from he the heir apparent to Kobe and putting up 18-6-6 ROY to "he will be fine"
It's summer league breh.
russell finally having a good game, i'll give the young nikka credit where it's due. I like clarkson's aggressiveness though. Cunningham out here with the james hardne stat line in terms of scoring. And no one should be surprised about cunningham's explosiveness, dude been had bounce since early in highschool.
When did rookie summer league mean so much? I see some nikkas in here roasting that I 100% remember saying they'd take Russell over Mudiay in the thread i made in march . The laker hate is so strong
he played the same as he did every other game. his shots just finally started falling. this is why i wasn't trippin. he has a nice handle, good mid-range shot, and sublime court vision. he'll be a problem.
one area that positively surprised me. he's really good defensively. moves his feet well, knows how to use his length. for the first time since kobe was young, the lakers might have someone that can stay in front of opposing pgs.
oh so when d'angela gets some lucky buckets now summer league counts but when he was playin like trash summer league doesn't count
lwo is unbelievable
d'angela has a decent game against jared cunningham and oliver hanan(2 guys that will not be on nba rosters come season time) and y'all come out posting how he gonna be a star :laughhh:when 24hrs before he couldn't get past 5-11 wingspan white boy kevin pangos
just face it....if philly wanted to trade okafor for d'angela, mitch would take that in a new york minute. Mitch already knows d'angela will not be a star
I can't wait for D'angela to face these PG's in the west...thats even if he makes it thas far. Y'all know damn well if he was a Undrafted free agent he wouldn't make the squad with what he has shown over these games.
Book it right now...D'angela russell will never be better than mike conley jr.
I can't wait
