No he isn't. Have you watched him the last few weeks? |
I have still 42% FG. He stole the ROY award last year from Clarkson. Towns is significantly better then Wiggins. |
Towns is better, but Wiggins is better than all the rookies that played last year. He is a way better player than Clarkson. Clarkson is more of an offensive 6th man. Wiggins can play defense and probably will be an elite defender in time along with scoring 24 to 25 a night. |

No, old. |
Kobe can play happy-ball when the game is un-winnable. If it's close, he needs to be on the bench at the end of the game smiling and pretending like he's giving advice to people. Give Scott credit for sitting him and giving Russel the experience he will need. |
Scott just said Kobe suggested the kids play it out, Scott was looking to put him back in. Russell and Randle both just said Kobe was coaching them from the bench so hardly "pretending like he's giving advice to people". But what do they know, huh? You have it all figured out.

Wiggins is looking more and more like Iggy...
Has high defensive potential, however, offensively really raw... Has good physical attributes too..
Difference is that Towns has all that and a really good offensive game with better range than Wiggins, even though Wiggins is a perimter player, while as Towns is a big man |

Obviously the past dozen games with Kobe closing out has proved that. Byron is such a egotistical POS. He loves to put down players or ideas that don't fit his stubborn vision. Lakers fans may revolt if he's back next season. |
He didn't actually say that bud. |
You felt the need to comment on my post for some reason where there were other people who reacted as well? |
Because it was a made up quote that's why. |

yeah, taking it to OT in someone else's house is a step in the right direction but they need to start getting a few wins, badly. Piling up losses are not good for the psyche. They might start attacking each other on the bench if they don't start picking fights on the court, lol. |

I'm gonna put this L on Roy for being a soft flopper and on the refs for falling for rubios flops on Dlo, then not giving Dlo any love at the other end for free throws,,, for once, I got no problem with byron this game,,,

| What a amazing game. Both our rookies balled out. I was hoping DLO would have hit the GW. That would have been awesome. |

Actually it wasn't Byron, it was Kobe.
Kobe told Byron to leave Russell and Randle in the game. Byron is freaking unbelievable.

Wiggins may be better, but saying he's way better is a stretch. He has elite defensive potential certainly, but so did Wesley Johnson. Doesn't mean it'll come to fruition. Clarkson is a 2 who sometimes plays 1 and still shoots a far higher FG percentage than Wiggins. Pretty telling. Saying Clarkson is a sixth man is ridiculous and misinformed. He's clearly shown over the last year plus he is a starting caliber two guard in this league with the potential to be an All Star down the road. Takes good, high percentage shots. Freak athlete. Made strides with his outside shooting and even his defense is starting to come along. When he's the primary ball handler he's shown a propensity to make plays as well.

Russell Catches Fire in Overtime Loss
| Quote: | | Russell, in particular, rose to the moment by scoring 21 of his career-high 23 points in the second half. The teenager even provided the first clutch moment of his career by banking in a game-tying, off-balance seven-footer while draped by Andrew Wiggins with 2.2 seconds left. |
