Sorry I did not want this loss in the Russ thread...
“When I turn on the TV and I watch players play, the player that plays with the same kind of emotion and grit and competitive intensity is Russell [Westbrook],” Bryant said of the All-Star guard. “Russell is going hard. Doesn’t matter who he is playing against, doesn’t matter what the odds are, he’s going, that’s a guy, he is going 110 percent every single time.”

Except; Russ a looser, Kobe not. _________________ Lakers need to build a freaking team !
Ya'll don't sound very happy about this acquisition. I don't blame ya'll. The tone would change IF he could shoot the ball with a reasonable degree of efficiency. But, then again, the cost would have been higher if he did that.
There is some good in this. His intensity will be infectious. We will have moments of true elite defnse at times. The common goal for him and the team is he and AD making at least a 3rd team all defense for Westbrook, and 1st team all defense for AD, and even DPOY as well. And the team being ranked in the top three defensively.
A defensively engaged LeBron & AD, with Westbrook the Secretary of Defense, will be truly entertaining at times. Put some shooters around them, with an Alex Caruso, and a few others, and the Lakers will be swinging for the fences, as we should be, Westbrook warts and all.
