He piss me off because he had all the potential to become a superstar. He is so fun to watch in his bag.

[@jamesonedwardsii4943]

No he didn’t. This is D Lo as a third and fourth option most of the time. Austin Reaves gets more Pick and Rolls than D Lo most of the time. As a first option he’s just too easy for a team to zone in on.

I already said it. D'lo needs to be agressive on scoring and lakers must give him the key like steph curry does on warriors and lakers will be unstopable or they have more winning percentage than they did when lebron doing the ball hog and stoping the lakers ball movement. I hope lakers keep Dlo in offseason and build around him and AD.

[@broncosstampede494]

I Think The Lakers Need To Threaten AD With A Trade, To Get Him To Play Better, Before The All Star Break AD Was Playing Lights Out Basketball, Since The All Star Break AD Is Back To Disappearing.😂

[@ohh2752]

I’ve never heard you say that..

[@sec0ndton0ne408]

You know fam. Alot of games turn into point guard/guard dominant scenarios but Lakers haven't had a True PG in forever. They need to run everything off DLO in the 4th and more when LeBron is in. LeBron kills all momentum and the offence gets predictable with their slow play.

[@edgardls95]

They do need to let him cook more often, hes the ketly to unlocking the offense. The problem is when they play physical/scappy teams he tends to struggle

[@byronwilliams6532]

Russell is a closer. Lebron and AD are the better players, but this man is naturally gifted scorer. As great as Lebron is, he is more like an athletic version of Magic Johnson. He is a triple double machine. AD is a double double machine. Russell is not athletic, but has a craftiness like Harden and quick release like Steph. Too me Lebron and AD seem to manufacture points by some jump shot, driving layups or dunks and getting to the file line. On occasion Lebron will get hot from three and close or carry games, but this Russell seem to have a thousand moves in his bag. He has should flashes of this through out his career, but right now he is killing it.
