    Being a great guy is fine. Dudz was phenomenal with team chemistry. . On the court chemistry and production is more important. . That's why he never actually played.. I like Melo more on the wing launching jumpers than posting up or going ISO midrange.

    Yeah, he really helped when he was on the floor with his 5-17 shooting and awful defense.

    He had 4 minutes to turn it around. The replacement didn't get it done either.

    Someone else will figure out what?
    Figure out how to help Russ make layups?
    Figure out how to force Russ to take better shots?
    Figure out how to force Russ to play a lick of defense?
    Sorry, Russ isn’t going to change and the only thing that could save him is a brain transplant.

    You can’t hide from the facts.

    The one where Lebron and AD were healthy and played like two top 5 players all season. Then turned it up another notch in the playoffs? Um..you forgot that little fact about that season? Oh..it was the role players huh?

    You obviously didn't actually watch that game. Russ sat out the 1st part of the 4th quarter. When he came in we were behind. He hit a three, didn't turn the ball over and nobody scored on him. Then he came out. So explain it again how exactly that was on Russell Westbrook.?

    Trade Westbrook.

    And he sucks, too.

    He sucks BIGLY!

    Can't wait until he ends up in a podunk town, and I don't have to deal with him again.

    Do it, Rob.

    You didn't watch that game either I see. Westbrook didn't play in the first part of the 4th. Levert never scored on him period in that quarter either. Come again

    Agh..memories of what happened and what actually occured don't always match up when pushing a narrative I see. A DVR is an awesome invention.

    LOL..yet he somehow missed those 20 points Levert scored in the 4th on everybody else? Talk about selective editing. I notice this guy doesn't seem to post much on Vogel's great defensive adjustments either.

    Well..they have only played 3 consecutive games together this season. I still think that's the biggest issue of all. Vogel's brain farts, Russ bad fit, old roster, etc. None of that would be such a big deal if the first part wasn't true IMO.

    Its 50/50 Vogel makes it to AD getting back. There won't be any trade happening before then. So Frank is going to have to dig deep here.
