Funny how all the doubters are now saying, "He wouldn't of been the player he is if he was on the Lakers." Instead of the usual, "unathletic fancy passer" or "just a bench player who won't be on the team by seasons end."

His twitter header sums it up well

On the recent ESPN piece on the Brooklyn Nets, Dlo said everything every critic of naysayer said about him was probably true.

Dude has amazing self restraint. Ironically he looked like the most mature one involving the trade.

D'Angelo Russell is one of five players to record 30+ points and 10+ assists in consecutive games this season. The others? James Harden, LeBron James, Damian Lillard & Trae Young.

He's also the 1st player in franchise history with 76+ points and 22+ assists in a 2-game stretch.

I have a feeling he won't, it seems like the perfect time for another clunker lol
But as a Lakers fan it'd be great if he did, because it would put more heat on Magic. I just think he needs as much humility as he can get if he's going to eventually be successful as POBO, or if it's what leads him to eventually step down. Either/or

Maybe Magic is Killmonger's dad. Dude had it perfect and ruined it with dumb decisions. Keep DLO, Randle, ZU and don't antagonize PG's agent. Get rid of Moz in 2018 like Nets did and get PG as FA.

ZU
Randle
PG/Ingram
ZO
DLO

I have very low D'Angelo expectations for the game tonight. Although still capable of the spectacular, he has been a little up and down recently. His coach has mentioned that he thinks Russell has hit a bit of a wall.
I always root for the Lakers, but this particular matchup is a win-win for me regardless of outcome.
