I'd trade him with 3 firsts for nothing in return.

I bet Russ has a quote saying live-love-laugh-screw reporters in his locker.

What a guy. I love this man.

Russ is like having a mad dog guard your house.

He's just as likely to save your ass as he is to bite you in the crotch.

While I would have liked to see AD and Hachimura play with Russ's intensity tonight... I'm at the point where I just can't take it anymore.

Give me someone who plays in control that has less talent and the sooner the better.

I have actually been a fan of Russ and his comeback season and his approach to having fun.

But his smile after the game does irritate me. Lebron your leader has his head down under a towel at the end of the game and doesn’t play the last play of the game, his smile seems out of touch.

Lakers HAVE to trade this guy. He just won’t ever get it.

Nobody guards this guy when it’s close game.

They don’t even acknowledge that he is on the floor

Gtho man

I can not blame them. Would you guard him? I could also see a HACK A BRICK employed down the road. I really want to like him. He plays hard and is very strong (going up against players much bigger than him). But, at the end of the day, the guy blows.

I am starting to seriously wonder if he’s doing this (bleep) on purpose
I know that’s awful but he has been playing pretty bad for a couple of weeks now and it’s just too much of a coincidence that the trade deadline is coming up

Nah he’s just a mediocre player. Mediocre players have mainly meh games punctuated by good stretches and horrible stretches.

Ham screwed this up bad. The 3 guard lineup while TB and RH and WG are on the bench is pathetic. Putting Brick in the game in OT was the final nail in the coffin. It’s Tatum and Brown on the other side are you (bleep) blind bro!!? It’s almost as if the Lakers didn’t watch the LAKERS play against Houston in the championship year. Brick cost us the overtime by himself. Dropping passes, clogging up the paint cause no one even gaurds him, getting stuffed by the rim while Lebron is open. The day brick is no longer the Laker I’m throwing a party.

I'm officially done with Russ. Not cause he smiled after the game. Cause of his play from last night's game. I'd rather have Ben Simmons than Russ. Doesn't score on offense but he can do other things that Russ can do and can't do. He can pass and rebound like Russ. But unlike Russ, Simmons can play defense.

Any Lakers player who smiles after getting a defeat from the Green bastards should be traded, we want no part of those kind of players wearing the uniform, I have stuck up for Westbrook a lot this season but it’s pretty obvious that he’s trying to his best to screw up his Lakers experiment

Russ is shooting 1% worse than his career average.

His assist turnover ratio is the same.

If he's doing this on purpose, he's doing a great job disguising it within his historical career numbers.

The dude is full of energy... has incredible speed... but makes horrible mistakes.

I mean I think a lot of people could drive formula one or Indy cars and crash into other drivers.

The key is playing that fast and not costing your team the game.

When you are supposed to be a good PG you are supposed to put up numbers that doesn’t disclose the fact that he doesn’t seem to be enjoying the process of helping this Lakers team

Interesting fact for the person that said we should take Simmons over Russ.

Ben has the second highest turnover percentage in the league

Russ has the tenth highest for the last two years.

No to both of these guys.

Until this morning, I thought that he was blocked by Horford.

Or not giving it to AD. These are the things that seem intentional.

AD gets solid low post position on Brogdan.

Simple entry pass was required but what does Russ do, he chucks it off the backboard like they are playing in that classic video game NBA Street

Perfection 🔥🔥🔥

Trade his ass or bench him until after the trade deadline.
Been such a huge negative ever since that recent Spurs trade rumor came out
