Niccas on here are so dumb. 39 pts was nice but against a bad team. I said all along he wont bust. Notice he took over because Lou and Kobe were hurt ...no way you can judge Russ until Kobe is gone and Lou isnt closing games on the regular.
I think porzy, oak even Turner and especially kat will all prove they can play at a high level but Lakers will only truly be sorry they missed out on Towns when all is said and done. Porzy is legit but i dont think he will be able to have a long career most high usage players at his height of over 7 foot 2 tend to get foot issues and cant maintain a long peak. Doesnt mean Lakers shouldnt have drafted him ...but i get it.
Oak has historic numbers alright ...crazy good but ball stopping offense and atrocious defense.
This place went nuts over oaks big scoring and rebound game russ scores even more in a win on less shots.
He is not a bust but also probably not a superstar either. Thats ok if we get his HS buddy Simmons though ... we straight
. Cuz i think he can be a high level #2 on a playoff team.
Not sure i feel the same about Randle which sucks ...but to early to call bust on him too
