    Cherry picking the stats is great content

    honestly, it doesn't take cherrypicking right now to say russ is bad. his defenders are saying to wait on the judgment, and i think that's our only choice. i've been a russ fan for his whole career, and i think folks that supported kobe understand supporting russ.

    he's been objectively bad for much of the earlygoing, but there is history suggesting that will change, and that the team will be better for it.

    he played well in the miami game and did all the good russ things (and yes, many of the bad).

    Those are his stats. You can choose to ignore them if you like, but they are factual. I also forgot to add that he rarely plays defense and he currently leads the League in give aways- just like he did all of last season.
    Thank God LeBron is coming back soon.

    Kobe is my all time favorite player. He was one of the most intelligent players of all time and Russ is one of the dumbest.

    Again, about Kobe praising Dumbrick. He (Kobe) also praised Haren. So... probably not infallible.

    He's good once every 5-7 games?

    That's a joke of a quote.

    Yes, because Lebron never has turnovers.

    LeBron has led how many teams to Championships? Yup.
    He has also Never come close to leading the League in turn overs.

    He will be the all-time leader in turnovers for a career before long. I’m just saying he’s possibly a little more careless than people think, but any player who handles the basketball a lot will have turnovers.

    Okay.
    I tend to look at basketball players as a whole. If you want to say that both LeBron and Westbrick turn the ball over, then fine.
    If you trying to compare LeBron James as a player to Russel Westbrick, the player, I really have nothing more to debate with you about.
    One has lead FOUR squads to a Championship. The other is still trying to figure out how to be a COMPLIMENTARY piece on a Championship Team.
