Not every #2 pick gets a bunch of wide open looks either. Teams barely even close out on Russell.
You win :pachaha: like you know what kind of shots rookies were getting. Just admit you're irrational and expected him to be an all star his rookie year. :skip:

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
There's like no drop-off between him and Huertas :mjlol:


:dead: Cold

He's 19, 11 games into his career. Bruh, you sound crazy. No one knows what's gonna happen. Who predicted Steph Curry to be who he is when he was 11 games into his career? Give him time to develop. 1/8th in his rookie season and he's a bust.


I thought Curry would be a star before he was even drafted, I loved his game :yeshrug: I also don't think Russell is a PG.....

He gets plenty of chances to pull up. They play off him on every pick and roll. He's missing most of his shots, regardless of how he's getting them.
Nah because if he misses or fukks up a few times he gets pulled for Lou Williams and doesn't see the 4th quarter. You can tell he is uncomfortable out there and doesn't want to make a mistake. He barely takes chances and doesn't turn it over.

Meanwhile Lou Will has to have the worst +/- on the team, and Huertas is out here playing YMCA pick up ball:aicmon:

yeah the chemistry and overall direction of the team is shyt....they've literally won on pure talent.....i think they just kept mcchale cause there weren't any viable options out there at the time......
Thats moreys guy. He brough him in cuz mchale "coach3s" the team to moreys philosphy. Mchale doesn't have anybody on roster moves. Morey brings in whoever he wants whenever he want wants tp play for this team. No other coach would go for as much roster changeover as McHale has endured his tenure here. Mchale been here 4 years . Theres not one single player left on the roster from his first year, and only james dmo and terence jones remain from his second year. Mchale is moreys puppet, cuz adelman and jvg didnt play that.

His shot will improve i believe because the form is there. I still feel like the only thing thats going to hold him from being very good is if he can consistently get 2 the line or not

All-Star? :dead:

I hated the pick from the beginning and I've seen absolutely nothing so far to convince me that I was wrong. :smhkobe:

Hes not. Thats his biggest problem right now as a laker, they trying to make him a point guard because he has good vision. He is def more harden than curry

I don't think he would be that bad if he had another coach. He's the only guy looking to pass on a team full of chuckers.

Ben McLemore, best shooter since Ray Allen according to scouts...

shot 32% from 3 his rookie year


shot 35% from 3 his sophmore year

40% from this season

but according to
@Regular_P rookies aren't supposed to struggle when they come into the nba especially when it's shooting but let me guess, he was shooting contested 3s right? :ld:

east looking better than the west his year....

:ehh:

After GS and Spurs there is a pretty big drop off in the west...

OKC will get up their if they can stay healthy but man their defense is BAD...I mean any team that gets the rebound and pushes can get any shot they want against this team and I don't see how getting Durant back changes that...

I'm trying to talk myself into Houston getting their shyt together and i am having to do a LOT of mental gymnastics:jbhmm:...
