I just love the fact that everyone that was so insistent russell is a "point guard" are now so ecstatic that he can play his true position "shooting guard" next to ball
Actually I'm fairly confident that everyone who is insistent on Russell being a lead guard also insists Ball plays like an off guard.
I don't see either as a lead guard in half court, but it can change in the future. Ball still has to play his first game and is a great lead guard in transition, so I have higher expectations about him.
Not telling Dlo is a lesser player than Ball, he is a way better scorer.

I'm pretty sure the Lakers hold Ball in a higher regard then Russell so if this is a possible feud, then the lakers will trade him elsewhere for the best possible deal.
And you're basing this on? _________________

I am pretty sure you are making stuff up again. Know what? Ball isn't a Laker. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023.
If the Lakers getting a PG in this draft like Ball or Fox, Russell will be moving to SG. How is Russell's size and speed comparing to the rest of the SG?

Size wise, is 6'5, and 6'10 wingspan. More than enough. He can also put on some upper body weight easily (and has). Speed, who knows. Too many to compare. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals

We already have De'Aaron Fox. His name is Jordan Clarkson.
They're quite different players imo _________________ Kobe

Note the restrictions: 25 points per 100 possessions, 5 assists per 100 possession. Russell put up 26.5/8.2. LaVine and Wroten are the unimpressive ones here, but otherwise that's some good company by age.
BTW, here are guys who put up Russell's numbers through their 2nd year (instead of looking at age): http://bkref.com/tiny/VrbfP
Not quite as exclusive but still impressive production.
What's shocking is that CP3 is in the 0th percentile in terms of attempts at the basket. Makes me feel a bit better about Russell being in the 3rd percentile, lol.

Look at the other names. He can be a big brand if he realizes his potential on the court. He doesn't have a boring personality which helps. _________________ Showtime 2.0
If he and Swaggy can squash the beef then so could Ball and him.
On a side note I'm sure Russ is just thinking he would not be our PG of we draft Ball.
he was probably liking the compliment the original tweeter was giving him not realizing the Ball part was even there
I was also wondering if the "like" had more to do with the compliment related to his game than with the supposed conflict people are jumping on. _________________ LeBron, AD, & _________. Stay tuned.
