D'Angelo Russell Discussion: Adopting A Professional Attitude

The no dip 3 is so lethal… I am so amazed by it

 

Just play some passable D Dlo, with Lebron your offense will always be there

 

the eye-hand coordination on these guys is nuts.

 

It’s only lethal if those two in back to back games go in obviously but that angle really shows how it was just one motion ….

…. because LeBron’s pass was perfectly placed and soft like that, unlike his typical lasers these guys have to handle. Looks like it’s being practiced.

 

DLO was absolutely clutch once again.

Keep this man

 

Even DLO is probably a better defender than the skinny midget Trae Young and all tolled …. (maybe?) better all around with everything he does well on offense plus better fit with LeBron and AD. Atlanta just like at the deadline is going to want picks and AR, not DLO, plus Rui and who else. F*** that!! If teams “hunt” a guy like Reaves that gives it his all at almost 6’6” and 20Olbs … what do they do to Young at 6’1” and 164lbs? LMAO.

It would be the Russ trade all over in losing talent in total and in the future with the picks being gone vs what comes back … even if unlike Russ he’s still in his prime on offense.

 

He has been so damn good man, idk where we'd be right now if he was still coming off the bench...f$*cking ham man...

 

Have you seen him miss it? I don’t remember seeing a miss when he started shooting it lately

 

I’ve only seen two of them that I noticed. Have there been more?

 

I saw three and he made it all

 

Got off to a great start and then went church mouse quiet for the next 2 1/2 quarters.

Good final line and it's nitpicking but a more balanced night might have given us some separation. Those 3s can really pour water on the other team. 4/11 from 3, guessing he didn't have the juice or legs after last night.

 

Finally missed a no dip 3, it was great while it lasted

 

Whoa TRod sighting, yeah he’s been great

 

Lebron needs to teach this young man (relative him lol) how to draw fouls man.

He made that great steal then did one of the most obvious and unnecessary offensive fouls in history by pushing the guy he stole the ball from who was behind him.
1) that pretty much summed up the night for the lakers against the lowly Wiz
2) one of his few offensive weaknesses is that he has no ability to draw and 1's. It would help his game a ton he could get to the line more.

 

We could live with that, it's the absolutely, no resistance offered, on defense, that's his biggest problem. Well..when he's making shots that is, because if the shots aren’t dropping, he's basically unplayable.

 

jeezus he's not that bad!! .... he's trying .... and even steals the ball and blocks shots not all that infrequently. Certainly better than he's been in the past! From a guy who said you could plan defenders around and hide Trae Young on defense , as if that skinny midget wouldn't be hunted all game with picks. At least DLO has 3 inches and 30lbs on him.

 

I have more confidence that Young wouldn't disappear in the playoffs tho. Defensive shortcomings and all.

D'Angelo is like that cousin you loved growing up, then they went and abandoned you in a scrap. They will always be family, but you would never trust them in the same way afterwards.
