D'Angelo "bust" Russell drops 39 points, 8 3s, #LOADING

[Malta]

Is there a place for centers that shoot 42% from the field? "Modern day centers don't need to shoot high %s" but let me stop here. I can't give away all my material for my next thread. You gon get this work. Be impressed by a 7'3 dude blocking shots brehs

He's a PF, and Julius Randle is currently shooting 42% from the field, except he doesn't shoot threes as often as Porzingis and he doesn't play even half as much defense, yet you think he's the reincarnation of Charles Barkley, the receipts aint adding up

Good for him!


Still not better than Porzingas

When Porzingis scores 39 in a game as a rookie holla at me then brotein shake

You don't watch games if you guys are putting Okafor in your top 5 nor do you know shyt about just how bad he makes them as a team.

He's 7'3. who cares what his position is listed as. I find it ironic how you been slamming and criticizing these #newbigs who take perimeter shots but praise Porzingis who is HORRENDOUS at finishing around the paint and takes plenty of jump shots. I just found my box of receipts and mine ain't adding up either.

Clarkson is an inefficient no defense playing guard, there's nothing he excels at. Sure he's only 2 seasons in his pro career, but it doesn't make sense to max someone who can get replaced fairly easily. See if a team will be willing to offer something via sign and trade.

inefficient? haa haa what?
the youngin is shooting 45% Fg, and 37% from 3pt. thats efficient for a shooting guard.that takes jumpshots. westbrook shoots 46% from the field. lets not talk about his ugly 3pt%

Nah, this is the place for that discussion since you ducked out of that other thread but now wanna pump your chest out How many superstars are there in the league right now, less than 5 right? And you want me to say Russell has superstar potential why? He doesn't no matter how hard you want to believe it. Damn, @CantStop gotta lie on me now too? Nurkic wasn't top 5, and he messed up his knee.


We can discuss Porzingis all day, you wanna go that route brehbreh? Cause only one of these two players actually plays high level defense

to the bolded.

rookies just dont drop 39 like that for nothing. you would've probably assumed kobe was a bust back during his rookie season too. lol

 

[NatiboyB]

Should of taken Okafor and with this draft it you don't get #1-#2 and get #3 you take Dunn...

 

[Lakerman0834]

@CantStop da goat. I doubted dlo in the beginning. But he's got next currys run as top scoring pg bout to end

He plays PF, unless you think Robin Lopez is a PF. Hold up, Porzingis is horrendous at finishing around the rim according to you? How come he shoots 56.5% in the paint and Randle shoots 53.4%, yet according to you Randle is a strong finisher yet Porzingis is a horrendous one?

You might wanna save that work breh, I don't do minimum wage

 

[Full Measures]

Yes I still think you should of picked Okafor....

You going down with the ship huh?

you do realize Porzingis is 6 inches taller right? Porzingis is horrendous around the basket for his size. I've posted many times that Randle needs to get better in that area and that comes with experience. Porzingis was a pro before, was he not? Im tapping out breh. It's been fun.

I don't care how much taller he is, he's better at it and he has much more upside when it comes to improving at it too, look at you adding all these extra stipulations now Tapping out? You called me in here after ducking out yesterday

But Okafor has been averaging 22 points per game since January.

Towns is fifth in the NBA in double doubles, and already leading his team in defense and offensive efficiency.

Porzingas leads all rookies in defense efficiency, and is already the Knicks best defensive player.

What does any of that have to do with D'Angelo?

His brain dead coach brought him off of the bench and stifled his growth in the early part of the season. But now that the season is lost with nothing to play for aforementioned coach is starting him for the remainder of the season

And just 5 or so games into becoming a full time starter he posts the most points in a game by a rookie since Kyrie Irving. In what world is this not impressive?
