D'Angelo Russell Discussion: Opted In!

Of course injuries of key guys like Vando, Rui, Reddish in and out of the lineup figure into the total equation, not even counting Gabe’s untimely passing. None of that record talking about Russell happened in a vacuum. Just sayin’. No need to say injuries are part of the game every team has them … of course and they kick every team’s a** when multiple KEY players are out concurrently.

 

Except when we are talking about Ham.

"He owns every loss..regardless. "


LT...most likely

 

He’s definitely been part of the problem … yeah add that into the equation too.

 

Lol

 

i'd have to look at the games, but the stretch when dlo was benched was when we lost several games we should have won, right? whereas his better play has come in a stretch when we won a few games we shouldn't have. iow, i think the schedule wasn't equal in those samples.

anyway, i don't care. when he hasn't been available, it's generally been ugly. and having him on offense next to AD and lebron has been nothing short of a revelation after having to watch russ in that role for the better part of two years.

 

Yeah. A few of the Twitter guys have also posted on the difference between DLO playing and not playing and its all favored DLO playing even if his numbers weren't great.

 

Don't tell me he's ducking the nuggets

He's fine - he's not missing tomorrow's game.

 

f***ing idiot.

Yeah, he went in and they cut off his arm. Let me clarify, he got a flu shot.

 

S*** .... why an injection in HIS knee now?

 

Putting 2 & 2 together. DLO ain't playing

Update: out

 

Loud sigh.

 

lol Lakers management probably kept the knee injection quiet until after the trade deadline to avoid tanking DLo’s trade value, just in case anything came up.

 

0-4 so far this season without DLO.

 

0-5

 

Gonna need him
