DLo is a defensive liability who can't get to the rim or shoot consistently enough to start or finish games in this league.
TBH, I saw very little difference between Russell being out there or Dinwiddie defensively. Chris Paul was destroying this team. If we're going to be calling one guy out while ignoring how bad others are defending but are getting longer leashes from the coach, we're not having an honest discussion imo.
I'm not saying that the criticism of Russell isn't warranted, but people act like he's the only one getting cooked.
Also, im not blaming anyone for Chris paul going off. dude was hitting step back rainbow threes from steph curry range. no one was locking down paul and he is extremely tough to blitz or double since he is such an elite passer.
We lost to a much much better team whose superstar player was in the zone. even still we made it a game right down to the final minute.
guys blaming the coach or role players are off their rocker
