So desperate for Ws it's absolutely pathetic. I'm sure people will remember those 2.5 quarters 10 years from now and bring it up during GOAT debates. [Reply]

LeBron went 27-6-8 on 10/16 shooting in that game and would have had 12+ assists if Russell wasn't throwing bricks up all game. What more would you have him do? [Reply]

He didn’t take any shots in the 4th until his 2 failed tip-in attempts under 2 minutes. That is not normal. He seemed kind of disinterested but maybe he was gassed. [Reply]
Make sure and get him a third superstar by game 2 and all will be ok. Allocating > 60% of the cap (according to sportstrac) in two players does make building a team a challenge. [Reply]

Well, if they had Kyrie instead of Russell that game, they win it. [Reply]

They were down 15 by the time he came back in for the 4th Q. The game was effectively over and I'm sure he knew it. [Reply]

FUCK LEQUIT. 0 points and 0 shots + 6 turnovers in the second half. Since when do we start blaming role players? 9 straight losses to one fucking team? Yeah, real KING SHIT! MY ASS!!! CAN'T FUCKING WAIT UNTIL HE LEAVES MY TEAM. I HOPE THEY FUCKING GET SWEPT AGAIN!!! [Reply]
Russell could score 40 points/gm on 70% shooting for a season and I'd still expect him to shoot the Lakers right out of any game they play against Denver.
Killed them last year, did it again yesterday. [Reply]

Retire.
Become a part owner of the Lakers. And be permanently in charge of GM decisions regarding player personnel... [Reply]
