I'm expecting Russell to have a big season for the Nets this season. I think Kenny Atkinson will be a good coach for him, I like what he's done with the Nets so far. The Nets are going to start with Lin and Russell at PG and SG but I think they might struggle without having one of these in their second-units.

If you like Dlo, be happy he gets to play in the East to show out a bit.

Dlo, lin are not the second coming of the splash bros they're just a couple starters in the east.


He didn't do any of that on purpose. The video was stolen from his phone and subsequently leaked onto the internet. And it didn't ruin anyone's relationship, Nick Young's relationship was intact until he got caught cheating by his own security cameras.

exactly plus that only has to do with DLO and Nick and nothing to do with Lakers basketball. I wouldnt tolerate my spouse cheating on me yet I assume a vast majority of NBA players do that. Should I want the Lakers to get rid of any player who cheated on their spouse/GF too?

I guess cap space will be taking those shots now

That one moment of joking around really changed the trajectory of DLO's Lakers career. Arguably there was no turning back after that.

Interesting that DLO got the most "Most Improved" votes from the Ringer staff.

https://www.theringer.com/nba/2017/10/16/16480448/nba-2017-18-awards-champion-predictions

I can see him getting 18-20ppg/5/5 this year.

Man.

Atkinson is going to stagger their minutes so that one of them is always on the court. They did it all preseason except for the last game.

They're apparently expecting some Ingram hero ball in the clutch this season.


That hasn't shown to be very effective so far in the preseason.

Didn't know that but it seems smart thinking by Atkinson.

Seemed intentional (the bolded) from Coach Kenny as well. Didn't want the team to get a big head after their 3-0, blowout start

Yup. Atkinson actually said his plan is to have one of them on the court all the time.

I said that it seemed intentional in another thread in the Lounge, and they said I was making excuses for poor coaching decisions. lol

He’s always had offensive talent, it’s his focus that sometimes gets lost.

Dlo's first step looks good. Just blew by his defender.
