Dude was named after the singer who made the album Brown Sugar.. It's a great nickname. And he's got that Brown Sugar skin, its fitting for his game too. I dig it

Isn't DLoading already his nickname? _________________ A key that has the ability to unlock many locks is a master key. But a lock that can be opened with any key is useless.

Oh, KIROE.
I like it. It's going to be nothing short of sweet watching those passes.

I prefer the Wall/Beal backcourt over the Curry/Thompson frontcourt. Am I crazy? I love the way Wall locks up his position. Beal is also a good defender. Beal has the outside shooting, though, to really complement Wall's penetrating ability.
Either way, looking forward to some Russell/Clarkson. Thanks again for the numbers, GT.

I don't agree, but you're not crazy. It's close. Washington is in a similar position to Golden State last year. A very talented roster that's held back by archaic schemes. And you're welcome.

The singer who wrote that SONG is Mick Jagger. D'Angelo just ripped off the name. And yes, Chronicle is right, the nickname is weak.
Too bad Russell's mom didn't name him Musiq Soulchild... _________________ LeBron, AD, & _________. Stay tuned.

Maybe his brothers are named Musiq Soulchild Russell and Maxwell Russell. _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

Nope.
Sincerely, Brown Sugar.
Y'all got to keep in mind that yinoma, like myself, is a bass man. That makes him a groove man. And D'angelo's (the R&B artist) Brown Sugar was one of the grooviest. _________________ We back.
I think his best potential is as a pass-first PG, I hope he can embrace that mindset.
In my eyes that pretty much defines him already. He rarely forces things and is a master of letting the game come to him ... and lets all remember he's just 19 and as such are only seeing the tip of the iceberg.
The corner 3's are very promising. He'll feast off of Kobe, Clarkson, & Randle's shot creation.
Can you post up Steph and Clay's shot charts like this for comparison? _________________ "Chick lived and breathed Lakers basketball…but he was also fair and objective and called every game the way it was played."

Something to keep in mind is that 56.7% of Russell's shots were contested in college. Part of that is his shot selection and/or inability to get by some guys, but I think the majority of it is a function of his supporting cast. That number will decrease significantly in the NBA, where others can create looks for him, and he won't be the only guy that can get his own shot when the shot clock is winding down.
