well, he's correct if he's saying that Laker fans have been spoiled by all the incredible talent that has played for the franchise. West, Baylor, Chamberlain, KAJ, Magic, Worthy, Shaq, Kobe. (and that's leaving off old George Mikan from the Minne days.) are folks seriously insulted that Russell admires the physicality of the young T-Mac, who exemplifies the kind of off the charts athleticism that is exactly what we're not going to see out of the 2nd draft pick? thank God Steve Nash played some time here, so folks won't get distraught if he becomes a role model for Russell's development.
