Doncic is my rook, Nits and a couple of picks might have got it done if Nits had any kind of rookie year but he was meh.Listen this kid has had some dud games this yr but boy has he been SPECIAL in several of them. We we would've had the guts to trade Knits/pick/ and some other asset to acquire him. I figured he'd be the best complement playing alongside #kporzee

D'Angelo Russell Stepped-Up for Brooklyn Nets tonight over his ex-team Lakers having 22 pts, 4 rb, 13 Dimes win win performance ..
Brooklyn Nets are on a 6 Game win streak .. Yo Wsup !!!
Not sure why you would say this since Ball is a great defender, best defensive RPM of any PG in the NBA with at least 25mpg. Mentioned Russ and Dinwiddie in your other thread as a reason the Knicks should be patient with Nits, both played a big part in that win against the Lakers. Atkinson went with an ultra small lineup with the Hyphen playing C and a lineup of Russ, Dinwiddie, Harris and Dudley. Didn't think it would work but this is the new NBA.I bet Ball was covering him... and Lonzo did have 23-6-3 himself.
Cavs and Hawks win. Great night!

Head coach Atkinson's 2-way and 3-way switches by Dinwiddle & Russ confused the Lakers defense throughout the 2nd half of the game.
I have to give coach Atkinson big props on coaching PG Conley, PG Russ, and Dinwiddle into decent floor leader play-makers .. I can only wish Fizdale had half of coach Atkinson know-how !!!
I had to check what I said about Lonzo RPM numbers and I misstated, he's like ranked 20th in DRPM still pretty good. I did see that Rox Utah game, refs are blind, too many new refs in the league I see way too many easy calls being missed these days.Didn’t realize metrics favored LB that much? Or did his Daddy rig it? Must be the sneakers. He does effort tho and body up.
I’ll poke fun of Ball any chance I can.... He just can’t cover these athletic guards bc he’s slower than a female Romanian bodybuilder. But, Ball did offset Russell with his scoring.
Anyway, I would love nothing more than to witness LeBron and Ball struggle to be the 8th seed the next 3 years. A pox on any team that trades a star to LAK... ESPN Media machine already hyping Ingram, Hart, Kuzma for Davis. No freaking way!
The new NBA is geared to helping these Gs score. Did you see the 6 step Harden stepback vs Utah? You can’t touch a guard and he can take 5-6 steps... a defense is basically at the mercy of the miss these days.
[h=1]Rockets make NBA-record 26 3-pointers in 136-118 rout of Wizards[/h]
And tonight, the Rockets tried to do it again against the Miami Heat by shooting 18-54 from the 3-ball line tonite, and loss the game to the Heat 101- 99 .. CTFU to-to many wasted 3-ball shots to hold a lead, and to control the tempo of the game .. The Rockets 5 game win streak ended tonight by way of shooting 18-54 3-ball shots out of 82 fga .. SMH !!!
Do you Guys remember "Danilo Gallinari" Gallo?
Tonight, Gallo scored 32 pts, 6 rb, 4 ast, and 2 Blks on 68% fga to give the Clippers a 125 - 121 win over a hot Dallas Mavs team.
The LA Clippers coach Doc Rivers played a 11-Man same-page rotation that got 67 points from the bench-players tonight.
If the Clippers stay healthy they will be the team u dont want to bumb-heads with come playoff time.
