memphis? atlanta? the coach that deserves credit is kerr. he built the foundation, imo. the fact that it runs largely without him is actually...
he doesn't finish at the rim like harden (or really, get fouled--harden's not a great finisher because he doesn't explode off the floor), but...
yeah, i don't think they'll rebuild his shot, so they just need to get a repeatable motion and add range. if he had a pretty jumper, he would...
other weaknesses--chief among them being lack of ideal size for the position--become highlighted at sg. everyone talks about the smallball era,...
oh, and to chime in on the off-court stuff, i've said many times that i suspect russell has some off-court issues that seep onto the court. at...
we have yet to see ball make the "simple pass" against pro defenses. i'm not saying he can't, but we're assuming A LOT.
looking at a lot of guys who probably won't be drafted, which is interesting. as a zona fan, i like kadeem allen's defensive potential. i think...
punk nailed it: i think russell was asked to do different things at different times. he's more of a harden than a paul, but the lakers don't...
i'll just do 10: 1. Boston- Fultz. best player. 2. Lakers- Ball. system fit, high upside. 3. Sixers- Jackson. i don't think he's a great fit,...
williams-goss was impressive in his last tournament game. was killing it in winning time until he tweaked his ankle. doesn't look like a...
i think the theory of ball is a great fit next to russell, actually. i think fox has a great chance at being a better nba player than ball, but i...
off court smart isn't the same as on-court smart. i think jason kidd's a legit moron in terms of "intelligence" as socially defined. i think...
i realize it; i just see it as misguided. again, if either player is more suited to play off the ball, it is...ironically...ball.
some pretty smart folks have the ball/russell roles reversed, and i agree with them. ball's the sg/pg, and russell's the pg/sg. and i still...
the knock on ojeyele has been his interest/consistency on d, though, right? otherwise, he looks like a more talented jae crowder. but crowder's...
russell's public persona just makes it easy to take him apart, i think. his game has been quite good considering his age and experience. quite...
didn't young test out as super athletic? i suppose you saw more in-game evidence from diallo.
if the spurs want him, draft him. just a rule. i remember when they grabbed george hill a couple picks ahead of the lakers (who were supposedly...
i'm not sure this is fully true. most starting pfs on good teams are still strong dudes. you don't see ingram types at the 4. even dantoni...
he's not a very useful offensive player, and he can be taken out of games by more physical players. i'd rather have towns, jordan, m. gasol,...
