D'Angelo Russell Discussion: Adopting A Professional Attitude

From Mikan, to Wilt, to Kareem, to Shaq, to Bynum, to Dwight, to now the great Mosgov how lucky are we?

 

Bender>Mosgov>Zubac

 

:MitchQFT:

( I didn't get to see him play)

 

You included Coward but no mention of Pau.

 

LOL at DAR tweaking his pal.

:Headbang:

 

What are you trying to say? :Randallconfused:

 

Russell was significantly better on the court without Randle according to those stats.

 

That was sarcasm, but you aren't kidding. That is a difference noticeable enough that I'm not sure it can be ignored. Curious how many minutes go into each calculation though.

 

bench Randle, start Twig

 

Or Nance?

When asked if Ingram wanted to start at PF...



Yeah, not physically ready for that yet.

 

Nance be like....

 

I don't know. There was a link that GT posted on LG to determine it, but I'm not smart enough to figure it out.


"40 minutes without Randle on the court, 196 w/him. http://nbawowy.com/juio9ybbe3ln19r4q9b9sh5mi#/juio9ybbe3ln19r4q9b9sh5mi

nbawowy.com is kind of difficult to navigate, but it's a really cool site once you get the hang of it. Tox, I think it's right up your alley especially."

Thanks to GT.

 

almost 5 to 1 on bad minutes vs good ones, but there is a good chance it's still pretty accurate based on what we all see apparently.

 

I always thought (since his OSU days) that Russell worked better with a stretch 4, floor spacers, and a good PNR big. Of course if Ingram develops the way I think he will with the ability to create, be a play-maker, and shoot, the sky's the limit for what the two of them can develop into together.

Anyway, Deng/Nance are superior to Randle right now; nevertheless, Randle in transition is a beast. He can play-make, attack, and finish, but it's the lapses defensively, the poor screen setting (although getting better incrementally), and the inability to hit jumpers that frustrate me.

Heck, Nance isn't a knockdown shooter, but what he does do well is screen better, know where he suppose to be offensively, constantly move/cut, make the right reads offensively, and doesn't muck up the spacing. Better fit all around right now for Russell...

 

YIKES!! Again ..... to key negative stats with him. Come on Julius ... put it together. You can do it. Kerri freaking did it. On a broken ankle. Man up. Show some grit.
