Booker is an All-Star in this system.

James got the foul there, but he needs to get the ball to Booker at the end. No excuses. Booker is the star, not you, James.

Lakers made a huge mistake giving up Russell.

funny thing is, Russell and Lonzo would fit great. Russell can take the on-ball creation duties and attention while Lonzo thrives off-ball as a cutter/spot up/ball mover (big reason why he would have been perfect in Philly)

would be a disaster defensively though

Booker 19-4-4 in a half on 12 shots.

Most importantly being used in the right way and contributing with team stats too.

Len/Bender playing really well.
James with a high scoring game.
Booker amazing.

We need to stop Russell...he has been great on the first half.

Papa LaVar would never accept that.

Funny how D´Lo sat at the commentators table after that 3-pt foul and they were trying not to blame him for it so they wouldn´t make him mad.

Mike James worked really hard on his D on Russell in that last sequence. DBook has been excellent. I really like the defensive effort. If you watch closely you will see how close our players are staying on defense.

at this rate Lavar is going to kill Lonzo's career by framing him as something he's not

Magic bought into the hype and is now making Lonzo be a ball-dominant lead guard. Not who he is, and he + the team are struggling

I'm confident of Booker making All-Star by 2019 after seeing him under a proper offensive system and seeing him consistantly rebound and pass to round out his game. If we get a PG that compliments him that'll help too.

Booker is turning into much more than a scorer. His ball distribution/assists and rebounding have improved significantly since his rookie year. His defense under Triano seems much better as well. Sky is the limit. Especially once his efficiency takes that next step up.

You know, I find it amazing how he does this. He basically shoots while flying away from his defender sideways during his jump. All his shots are very hard shots as you need to adjust your aim to the changing angle during airtime.

Its very different conceptually from a stepback jumper, as you only adjust the distance/power, but not the angle you shoot. I don´t know how he hits it so consistently.

What a great half, Russell is annoying and ugly but damn he plays well.
