Russ finally looks like the #2 pick. That was fun to watch.

Did you see him after hitting that last 3 pointer at the end of the game? # ICE IN VEINS

D'Angelo's 39 points are the most by a Laker rookie since Magics 42 points in the famous Championship game clincher when he took Kareem's center spot after getting injured.

Russell was special.
Imo, today's game is perfect for Russell as opposed to Okafor or Porzingis.

Crossover and stepback 3s And post up mid range at 19?

Meanwhile don't sleep on Clarkson and Randle...


Nance looked good too.

Finally. Great game and confidence builder for the kid. :kingclaphands: I would like to see a few more assists from him. Lakers really need to work on their free throws, too.


What's up Tate? Yeah I want to see more. Last night was Great! Regarding Hibbert too to your Post above he even played Good!

Great performance by the toddlers, especially young D-lo! Hopefully they will gain some semblance of consistency over the final 21 games. The climb has begun.

Russell has always looked this good.

Fans don't see what the FO and Byron did.

Okafor , like Cousins, will be a good player on a bad team.

Russell's skill set , when developed, is that of a superstar. When he's 25... He'll do this with ease

You're a wise man, Robert. D'Angelo is only 19 (turned 20 on February 23rd). When Steph was a rookie, he was 21 (turned 22 on March 14, 2010). Steph's rookie numbers were 36.2 mpg, 46.2 fg%, 43.7 3 pt%, 17.5 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 5.9 apg, 1.9 apg, 3.0 TOV. D-lo's 36 mpg averages right now are: 16.9 ppg, 42.9 fg%, 36.1 3 pt%, 4.7 rpg, 4.5 apg, 1.5 spg, 3.1 TOV.

Let's see where he is when he is 21. I wouldn't be surprised if his numbers are ahead of Steph's, not that he will ever be as great as Steph. Regardless, there is hope.

Will not be Steph!!!!


But Harden or Manu is possible. More of a passing 2, than a pure 1 thus far
