By Smoke Dogg Go To PostRussell doesn’t inspire any regret whatsoever. He’s a good riddance for us as far as we’re concerned. Not a day goes by that we miss him.Russell would easily be your best player not named LeBron and probably the best player the Lakers have drafted since Kobe
There’s way more regret that we didn’t pick Tatum over him instead of Ball.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostFWIW, they traded Russell in part because people were mad at him "snitching" on Nick Young cheating on his fiance and that broke some… unwritten code or something.... are you for real?
By giririsss Go To Post… are you for real?
I think the "no snitching on affairs from your co-workers!" rule is really stupid, I'm mocking that unwritten rule.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostI think the "no snitching on affairs from your co-workers!" rule is really stupid, I'm mocking that unwritten rule.I think mind your business is a pretty good rule
By Smokey Go To PostTrade an all-star PG for lonzo brehsShit happens but the defense force for the moves 😂😂
By Pac-12 Go To PostWorked for Ashley.Going to pretend like I understand the reference
Edit: Wouldn't be Pac-12 without some random 90s reference lol
By IWMTB19 Go To PostI think the "no snitching on affairs from your co-workers!" rule is really stupid, I'm mocking that unwritten rule.You must be a terrific* team mate.
The rule isn't, don't snitch about affairs, but as pointed out, its none of his business anyway.
It's, don't fuck over your team mate. The people you have to be around for 3/4 of the year. Be on planes with. Don't show that they can never be who they are around you. That they always have to be on guard and wary of you.
That anything they say won't wind up on TMZ because you record everything in the locker room.
None of that's unreasonable. No ones asking you to break the law. Just, at worst, mind your own business.
If you can't get that, it ... wouldn't surprise me.
By blackace Go To PostRussell would easily be your best player not named LeBron and probably the best player the Lakers have drafted since Kobe
I don’t think so. We had a lot of players better than Russell.
Caruso, for example. Hart. Kuzma. Lance. Zubac.
All of those players are better than Russell.

By Smoke Dogg Go To PostI don’t think so. We had a lot of players better than Russell.Not even worth debating if you can't be serious

By giririsss Go To Post… are you for real?
Are you? People had Jax blasting russell and saying FA wouldn’t want to play with him on repeat.
Trading Russell hurts, but the point was cap and stars and if that materializes it will have been worth it. If not yeah
By blackace Go To PostShit happens but the defense force for the moves 😂😂
I said at the time it was a gamble. Still saying it now
By blackace Go To PostGoing to pretend like I understand the reference

It's all I know
It's all I live fo'
By giririsss Go To PostOh, i know that's why he was traded. I think he had to be traded. He was toxic and a distraction in that locker room.well... if you next moves are to draft Ball, and bring on LBJ, Lance and Rondo you obviously give little fucks about toxicity
By blackace Go To PostNot even worth debating if you can't be serious
Bro, what? I’m deadass. I’m serious as fucking erectile dysfunction right now.
Aint defending the Lonzo "off ball point guard" Draft, or any move since or before.
Just, i get why he had to be shipped out. He had to go elsewhere to rebuild his reputation.

By blackace Go To PostI think mind your business is a pretty good rule
Nope.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostNope.Boy you better be a saint then.
By blackace Go To PostLance is better than Russell? lol Put the dunce cap and think about your life…
I stopped at Caruso
By blackace Go To PostLance is better than Russell? lol Put the dunce cap and think about your life…
Nah, I’m good. My life is great.
And yes, Lance is better than Russell.
Russell was not that good. You’re hyping him up like fucking crazy. Centerpiece player? Yeah, right! And I’m the shah of Iran.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostNope.How so? How is not minding you business about people's personal life not a good rule? Do you people to tell you how to raise your kids or whatever? Shit do you think minding your only applies to cheating??

While "mind your own business" can be a good rule to follow if the potential consequences of them continuing are minor (eg, don't yell at someone to lose weight when they're a few pounds overweight), this is often not the case.
"Mind your own business" is inherently rooted in an effort to afford any conflict which in my family lead to my father and others not confronting hardcore racists, child molesters, and wife beaters.
Cheating on your wife is obviously between these two extremes and I'm not sure if you should tell or not, but acting like a super affront is annoying.
By Smoke Dogg Go To PostNah, I’m good. My life is great.he is... Now before you try to twist he isn't a top 10 player or anything but top 20 or 25 for sure... which makes him a centerpiece for any team... lol Nothing hyped it
And yes, Lance is better than Russell.
Russell was not that good. You’re hyping him up like fucking crazy. Centerpiece player? Yeah, right! And I’m the shah of Iran.
He the best player the Lakers have drafted since Kobe (No cap)
Better than any scrubs you listed...
Hart is trash if he played 30 mins he get 10 points
Kuzma we already address
Zubac is ok but really not even close to being a better player yet
The rest are Chinese starters

By diehard Go To PostI feel like if there is a time for snitching about cheating, when they are engaged is that time.
You don't record it. You confront your teammate and tell him it's fucked up if that's your feeling on it, but you don't record it like it ain't nothing. And you don't let the damn video get out.
That's really all it is.

Probably, but he was also like 20-21 and is mostly still a kid.
The whole reaction was just so fucking stupid.
*Josh Jackson at 18 years old destroys a woman's car because she spat in the face of her abuser*
*D'Angelo Russell at 21 accidentally snitches on his teammate cheating on his wife*
And the Russell one is the one that gets attention.
Really.

or you can leak a video to the Internet
Alright well you have a good day good sir
I’m in a different time zone and have already lost enough sleep over this fucking Russell turd

You can mind your business and still call the cops on child molesters/wife beaters smh.
You can mind your business and not record a coworker talking about cheating.
is this not common sense?

I remember DY gassing up Josh Hart lol

Also, don't think i forgot about DY gassing up Josh Hart.
Nephew of Bret the Hitman. Not a lot of people know that.

You're just Hitler.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostRussell as a top 20 player is an incredibly aggressive take.he played without a great supporting I wouldn't argue too hard if someone said top 40 tho
He had a 53% TS%.
Technically DLo didn't snitch, he recorded the conversation, kept the recording,`then accidentally let someone else get their hands on the tape. It's one thing to fuck up someones relationship because of a moral obligation but fucking up someones relationship because you're a clown is far worse.

Sure, but he was 21.
Probably like 30% of people have done more clownish things at 21.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostSure, but he was 21.
Probably like 30% of people have done more clownish things at 21.
And damn near all 30% of them had to get traded the fuck off the Lakers.
Still better than Kuzma, though.

By Pac-12 Go To PostAnd damn near all 30% of them had to get traded the fuck off the Lakers.right at Kuzma 3 pt %
Still better than Kuzma, though.
By s y Go To Postoutside of criminal behavior, nope.yeah. no. haven't,
By blackace Go To Postright at Kuzma 3 pt %
Thus, the illuminati.
Things more clownish than accidentally revealing an affair of a co-worker:
-Butt chugging
-Drunk/hungover in a presentation
-Shitting on the floor during a college party
-Probably vaping
There are more probably.

By s y Go To Postoutside of criminal behavior, nope.why leave those out tho?
Lakers got a guy with a DUI on their squad, but I guess no people got energy for that?
By IWMTB19 Go To PostThings more clownish than accidentally revealing an affair of a co-worker:I agree about the vaping part
