    Just ask John Wall who seemed intent on proving to people he could shoot and forgot his playmaking skills

    he is a terrible player now who ultimately hurts a team more than he helps…his terrible shooting, constant bad decisions, turnovers, and atrocious defense negate all the rebounds and assists he still manages to get at this point in his career

    Russ has taken the torch from Melo

    a former star who sucks and doesn’t help teams win, but players act like they still got it and are being disrespected and unfairly attacked

    eventually teams just wisen up and they’re out of the league

    “we had deals lined up, but ultimately the other teams decided to go a different direction”

    Second-round picks are being tossed around like women in a brothel

    Well this is his last chance.

    I really believed that if anyone could get him to play smarter it would be Lebron. Hard to believe the Clips will get that out of him, he's going to go there and see himself as the third guy instead of falling into a role of being an energy guy.

    Also, Russ's defense has always been extremely overrated. I mean he tries, Russ always tries but his positioning is rarely any good and he gets blown by too often, even in his prime.

    He was good at Houston. Harden got him in line and he shot his highest career percentage

    Lebron is ball dominant, it is hard to play 2 ball dominant guys together with their style of play

    We totally reworked our team in the name of propping Westbrook. His numbers looked better(not the advanced numbers) but it was to the detriment of our team. Westbrook was done being a positive contributor in his last couple years in OKC.
