i hope russ isn't playing through something he shouldn't be playing through. he's clearly not only out of shape he has no legs.

Yeah everything from distance is short. No idea, I can't remember when he broke out of the funk to start last year.

PG13 and Adams playing like tonight (and so far this season) + Westbrook at 80-90% of his MVP season and a 50% Roberson = WCF

late december.

it's just shocking watching everyone run around on defense and russ bent over with his hands on his knees and jogging. he really is struggling with his legs and movement and stamina.

No I typed it wrong. He was defending korver and there wasn’t even a screen set and Abrines just ended up doing a 180 and getting about two feet behind 47 year old Kyle korver

a major gap in schroder's games is passing to shooters. he just doesn't do it.

Sometimes it would be nice if schroder would actually get others involved instead of being such a black hole with the second unit.

Yeah it's weird and his legs definitely aren't there. Was something Duncan mentioned on that podcast we were talking about earlier. This team would be insane with 17 Westbrook.

How do you know If a guy is just rusty or he’s taking a step back? It feels like we’ve been discussing this about russ for a while now.

He barely had a preseason then hurt his ankle. I would wait a month before panicking (not that I'm not worried but it's still too soon to know what is happening)
