    Probably not, but was anyone actually considering him as an integral part of the Lakers future?

    Him and his 7.3 points per game on 33% shooting shouldn't even be on the team.

    As far as I know, they've been trying to trade him for years.

    Doesn't change the fact that he has a strong voice in the locker room and most of the team has his back on this issue. Not so easy to sweep under the rug when you got the entire team against one dude.

    Most of the team sucks and won't be back.

    Nance, Clarkson, Randle and Russell are the only players they should keep for next year. Let Swappy go run wet t-shirt contests on the beach. Cut his ass. He's a bum anyway.

    When the Washington Wizards don't even want you on your team, you know you're a toxic personality.

    Byron called Russell/Young incident an "internal manner" and didn't want to get into specifics

    Byron Scott got tired of D'Angelo questions after a handful of them just now, threatened to end interview with reporters.

    Byron admitted he's "disappointed" video came out, but he wouldn't discuss what internal talks have taken place

    Byron Scott on D'Angelo Russell: "I haven't talked to him, won't talk to him. That's an internal matter that our guys will deal with."

    Byron Scott: "The only thing that I'm disappointed about is that it got out. We're a family and we try to keep everything in house."

    D'Angelo Russell walked off the court without speaking to reporters. "Nothing talk about," he said as he went into locker room.

    Russell was asked if he would address media. Russell: "Nope. Nothing to talk about." Lakers said Russell and Young will talk pregame

    Look I agree, but like I said - it would be hard to just 'squash it,' when the entire team is isolating one player.

    NBA players are really stupid, I could see Russell actually being that naive.

    I'm fairly certain it was T-mac that said that. I'm also fairly certain it was a rumor and T-mac didn't actually say that.

    Lmfao you really think he did it for moral reasons? Also I don't think releasing to 5 billion people that someone is cheating is doing the right thing...

    What did Kobe do to Shaq? Drawing a blank on that one.

    Didn't listen to that but Kobe once accused Shaq of paying off women he slept with to stay quiet. And when I say "accused" I really mean - outed.

    That is his best chance of repairing his NBA career but he's soured his reputation amongst players and no player will really trust him for a while, unless some respected veteran feels pity and takes him under his wing and vouches for him.
    If you read the thread, maybe you wouldn't have missed the post where I said it wasn't for the right reasons but still a good thing to expose a cheater. I'm sure Iggy appreciates knowing she won't marry a cheater and everyone else who has been cheated on can empathize. I have no sympathy for Swaggy P.
