I would be so sure.

Russel is still a rook. Clarkson is still pretty raw.

I guess that means the Lakers aren't that high on Jordan Clarkson. Russell and Clarkson are too similar, both combo guards who need the ball in their hands. I don't see them coexisting on the Lakers.




More like useless Lin can hit the road now.

Isn't it funny how Bledsoe and Dragic completely led the Suns to 2 consecutive playoff pushes.. And Russell is more dynamic off ball than those guys.

I am really happy. If your a true Laker fan you stand behind Russell now! Even if you are disappointed that the player you wanted did not get taken with our choice.

Yeah, go listen to Bryon's press conference after they drafted Russell. Someone asked if he saw Russell as the PG and Bryon said he saw him as a guard period. That he saw Russell and Jordan both running the offense and both playing off-ball and they each had the ability to do both.

We are going to have a beastly team in the open court - Russell, Clarkson, Randle can all run and shoot. Nick Young and Anthony Brown spot up sharp-shooters.

And all three of those guys can be the ball handler on the fast break. Should be fun to watch.

Great pick. Big, big fan of Russell. It was the right pick, IMO. Now, it's time to be very aggressive in free agency.
