Interesting….

Not sure if it’s a pro or con.

But, it’s a interesting fact on a slow news day.

So the master plan is to build around Russ. I like it, what could go wrong?

Never been about his ability to produce stats.

It is all about his ability to lead a winning team.

And no, he is not a #1
Yeah let’s let the guy experience being something that comes close to resembling a leader for more than 2 games before we go putting that on him. I saw his interview after the game yesterday and I have to say it was the most lucid and sensical I ever heard him. He didn’t make fun of round earthers or nothing.

Damn right about that. Only a fool would stand toe to toe with Adams. And for anyone that wants to get picky talking about regular people. Not MMA fighters.
The whole league knows it, no one messing with him. Fortunately he’s one of the best guys in the league.

@DJ @WiggyRuss @Shanemansj13 @wildturkey @shopson67 @trojanfan12

This is what @The Q was talking about when he said the Lakers will operate as an over the cap team.

This is a really good breakdown by Keith.

If they can get Rui @ a low starting salary, they can still add a decent player.


Oh, I know....

The interesting part?

"Kendrick Nunn was a consistent rotation player, but he’s part of a guard mix for the Lakers that runs five-deep beyond him when healthy. Swapping Nunn for Hachimura rebalances the rotation and should allow Darvin Ham to avoid relying on so many three- and sometimes four-guard lineups."

Not garbage like you said.
