And this right here is why wade is one of the greatest and also the reason the big 3 worked
He’s still wrong first off bosh wasn’t better than him so it worked better,AD is the second option which immediately forces Russ to be the third guy which he’s never been
@@LanceG007 Lol and wade had never been the second man prior to Lebron it's very similar situation
@@LanceG007 he never even mentioned Bosch so what are you talking about? 😂 He mentioned Bron and Shaq, not Bosch.
He is probably my favorite player ever, but come on, that team was going to win a chip just based on talent
@@Leo-bd7fw neh, they lost to a Mavs team that was way inferior in talent. And that’s also the thing, they didn’t won just “a chip” they won 2.
Russ does pick his spots, it’s just that the spots are either the side of the backboard or to the other team
😅😅😅😅😅😅
Stop.🙈😂😂😂
Lmaoooo 😂😂😂
I still can’t believe that this dude won mvp Harden should’ve definitely won that year
@@cellycell8970 So your going back in history to change what he has done? You can't overlook that he averaged a triple-double for a whole damn 3 straight seasons which hadn't been done since the Big O. You can talk all your want about his IQ, not winning enough playoff games on his own, but you can't just rewrite the legacy he has created just because of how bad he is now.
Everything Wade said was totally about his stint with lebron and you know he's correct coz it got them two chips. Wade started posting up more and playing off-ball cuts to the basket despite being a pretty mean driver himself during the big three era. On the other hand, KD and WB tried to both be alphas and in the end KD left to win somewhere else.
Facts, Wade was slowly starting to decline LeBron’s first year in Miami. He knew his place.
@@kalonbrown5485 second year. First year Wade might have been the best player on the team tbh.
@@alainlamour5868 He was still a superstar in 2013, but really declined during those playoffs
You mean KD left to join the team that fucking wrecked him the season before because he saw an opportunity for easy rings lmao
@@combatwombat594 what happened to that team the year before and who was the best player on that team the next year, don’t think it was any of the guys that “wrecked him” the year before, just saying, it’s clear now why he left just because he picked the best team to join is a slight, that is what all players should do, why be loyal to teams that will literally trade you for a new printer I’m not talking about OKC I’m talking about The whole team/players story, player gets traded all good, Tyrese Halliburton for example, but if a player picks a team he thinks he can win with, they’re automatically a snake, same thing happened to Lebron only he choked his first year and KD was finals MVP his first and did it back to back and if by some miracle he didn’t get injured again it would back to back to back and he would be to me the greatest in my opinion, Lebron gets my nod as of right now, but KD is that guy that’s got next to get GOAT title.
Right on the money D wade…I completely agree
Go get ur Son🥊
Tell dwade to stop worrying about russ and worry about zaza

If Russ would dedicate his time and energy to the defensive end, he’d make this team much better. There is absolutely no reason why Russ is not a lockdown perimeter defender. He’s bigger than most guards, stronger than most guards and way more athletic than most guards. He should be causing hell on the defensive end. Find your little pockets on offense, but take pride in setting the tone and being the captain on the defensive end of the ball. It’s so crazy to me that so many people give this man a pass on the defensive end when in reality, he should be one of the top perimeter defenders in the league based off his god given abilities
100% agree, to me his problem with defense is, as usual, his quite low basketball iq, so either he thinks he's more useful spending his energy on offense or he can't read the opponents well enough to lock them down... oh, and of course the fact that he's chasing the rebound.
I’ve been saying this for years it’s strange
Other than a few short stints in OKC, he’s always had this problem and it’s downright perplexing. It’s especially crazy how an undersized 6 foot tall, below average athlete [for an NBA player] like CP3 can make 9 All-Defensive teams while Russ has never even made one
@@kingdeedee one word. Effort. CP3 puts in the effort to annoy the ball handler and stay in their face. He strips the ball a lot from bigger players too
@@georgelaflare couldn’t agree more. When comparing CP3 and Westbrook you can see the difference in effort on both ends. CP3 is far more active on offence as well seeing as he constantly looks for opportunities while he doesn’t have the ball while Russ literally just stands around. I understand Russ has a major effort problem, but the main reason I it so perplexing is because if you watched Russ since he was drafted, he was always branded as one of the highest energy, hardest working players of all time. Seems more and more like people just assumed that because he constantly runs at full speed in transition while yelling and beating his chest whenever he dunks or something
I’m a big Russ fan but I feel like he’ll play better with the bench
What’s sad is that it shouldn’t have to come to this😭. It’s ironic because I think Westbrook and Simmons could benefit from doing the opposite of each other’s game. One should shoot less, one should shoot more💀
True but if he settles down as a facilitator rather than someone trying to score he's fine as a starter. I'd rather have him score 15 give or take with like 10+ ast
@@omarfarraj160 agreed
@@anthonybrinson3405 A mf that can't shoot and can't hit free flows should definitely not shoot more lol
You’re right, cause they already have Lebron handling the ball and if he can play like Rondo,
then it would be better
Shaq did it with D Wade, DW did it with LBJ, Russ needs to understand his place in the team like all the greats do. I truly hope he listens to DW, but I'm sure he's sick and tired of hearing the same thing over and over again....
Dwade didn't do it for his son tho. He failed as a father.
@@leanmeanmenace1744 Who cares? No rewards for him either way/.
Yep. In one ear out the other. No material in the way.
@@leanmeanmenace1744 who are you to say that he failed as a father? That’s what I would love to hear..
@@Nerviniex his reward would be seeing his son grow up to be a functional and successful person in society
Man, that was spot on. I think we ALL hope Russ sees this 🙏🏾
I don’t know about ALL but I certainly do
I really hope so man. Otherwise, they might need to bring Russ on the show and have a sit down like it’s high school.
Dwade is right but Russ can’t play that role. He’s not a good defender or shooter. He’s a slasher. You are going to have him post up instead if ad?
He doesn't care even if he saw this
He won’t. Westbrook is that guy on the playground nobody wants on their team because it’s all about him. 🤷🏼♂️
I feel like every nba player in history has a moment in their career like this honestly, I feel like he will find his groove again.
Many not all. LeBron for example
Groove? Westbrook been outta his groove for the past 4 years. When yall gonna admit that he's washed?
@@someguy315 27 ppg in Houston and 22ppg 11ast 11reb in Washington, 24pts 10ast 10reb in ok and 26ppg triple double the year before in okc.
I get that he hasn't won much but he has been solid. This year is a mystery
@@someguy315 Washed compared to his mvp days but he still better than most
No He’s gonna go out like melo it will take an extreme humbling and a buyout for any team to want him. Hopefully his contract will get finessed by a team in full rebuild mode but I doubt it
Everybody tryna save Russ career and he still doing post game interviews saying he can’t always make the shots he usually make.
Most overrated player in nba history

@@deez994 You're high.. it's players way more overrated than him.

Great advice from a future first ballot hall of famer
To another first ballot hall of famer
Bad advice that's the reason Westbrook game off now if a player don't fit they don't fit Lakers need to buy him out or deal him to Houston for John Wall so he can get bought out because ain't nothing gonna fix this but Russ going to a team that fit his skill set
Advice yo son he a boy and not a female
@@AustinTheAlpha you weird💀
@@theetruth8626 why would they trade for John wall when he has barely played his damn self
I hope Westbrook gets this message 💪That's game
This is literally common sense. If you need Dwade to say it for you to finally get it, over halfway though the season, you're never gunna get it
Ofc he won't. If he heard this, he'll probably reply with an egoistic answer.
He’s gotten advice from plenty of greats. This is gonna go in one ear and out the other
I give this advice a 9/10
Russ should play like Rondo. Read the play, smartly pass the ball and don’t shoot bad shots simple.
He doesn't have the iq for that. He physically and mentally cannot play any other way.
Don't ever dirty Rondo's name like this MF
Not that simple tho. I think the player you're talking about is more of a "Nash" type of player.
@@drewski103 the basketball iq
@@lebronsstephdad4437 How was i dirtying Rondo’s name you clown
Smart advice, DWade. Unfortunately, Westbrook only knows one mode - it's me time.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Npcap
Atleast westbook didn't let his damn child cross dress and wear makeup 🙄
@@leanmeanmenace1744 you're right but your daddy came out of the closet.
@@leanmeanmenace1744 what does this have to do with basketball🤦🏿♂️
Everyone instills that to WB when AD and Bron were on the bench but still he still manages to commit TO's and his shooting is subpar
Brilliant Advice from one of the greatest Players ever!
Greatest advice given to Westbrook by a long shot!!!!✍🏽✍🏽
Wow, D Wade said this better than anyone else. I 100% agree
dont agree its not that russ is shooting too much really or out of rhythm, his problem is he leaves his feet every time he wants to make a play giving himself no chance to change his mind without an obvious travel AND he has incredibly bad sense of position i have never seen a "playmaker" overthrow and underthrow players so much.
"That was the worst point guard, in a Championship Finals, I’ve ever seen. He was too wild. He was taking off-balance shots. You have to come out and set the tone with Kevin Durant … Russell Westbrook has gotta set the tone with Kevin Durant." - Earvin Magic Johnson on Westbrook
@@jasonu3741 I agree with this also. Good point.
Then you don’t understand the issue
Me too
At 1:05 did Wade say "When Shaq go to bench, when Lebron go to bench."
Yeah looking at Shaq I guess it was like when the star is on the bench or maybe it was a mistake😂
yeah because he played with both. he is using himself as an example
😭
Yes like when they come off the court for their break. So he's basically saying WB needs to not play with the starters anymore in a very polite way.
Lol be open minded guys Dwade just made shaq as an example
I swear my coach did the same thing for me instead of me starting he said to come off the bench and kill the second string they won't know what hit them and we went to the championship that year they singled me out to triple and double team me all the time coach had me coming off the bench I was heated at first but it was a genius ass move I don't know why Westbrook don't think the same way put your ego to the side if it's really true about you just wanting to win to come out the bench as a superstar killing the second string and if you can't shame on you
Wonderful and Sound Advice Flash, hope he listens and apply this expertise of information and knowledge.

It’s so funny seeing Shaq and the host wearing suits and D-Wade and Candace looking like they just strolled in from the club lol
If Wade said bench yourself and wait for Bron to trade you like how he did me in 2018 I’d agree
LeGM trades everyone on the team eventually. Some earlier than others.
@@kovy689 he’s a cancerous player hopping teams and trading away young talent
Wade were wasted up and wasn't helping the Cavs at all and Cleveland front office got rid of Wade cause it wasn't helping out and LeBron left that season also and joined the Lakers.After Wade left the Cavs start playing better.It's nothing personal it business.
@@eugeniovera7435 lol . u know nothing !
😂
Dwade is a amazing player , great Dad , excellent analyst big salute brother definitely inspiration to us
@@wisetruth6180 lmao I know which one he ain’t
It’s crazy this is honestly the best advice Westbrook needs to listen up
I completely agree. Wade is very very right. I am always saying Westbrook must play easy basketball, i must go slowly. When his shooting is not good, he must focus on his assists because he has AD and lebron. Improve rebounds and defense.
Russ needs to watch film on how Wade played with Lebron in miami over and over again
Russ never played defense like wade never will
That was prime wade 😂, this is Russ after 13 years lol
That year heat won the championship was all D wade dude was sick af in the playoffs clutch af dude carried and elevated everyone and shaq was his rock backin him up giving him super confidence u can tell bc he didnt play the same way in the future no more
I’d trade Russ for D Wade and Shaq right off the TV set. Russ has been my favorite player for the last 10 years. I’d still trade him.
🤣🤣
😂
Man yous a funny dude man lol
Got damn 🤣🤣🤣
D Wade even said Shaq on the bench, I think he meant AD. lol
Damn. Never played a second of organized basketball and I feel this.
Russell Westbrook has always been this kind of player. He's an inefficient, out of control, turnover machine. He can't chuck up 30 shots to get 25 points anymore. Playing with KD and his triple doubles hid the glaring flaws you see today.
A lot of it also has to do with him not having the athleticism he once had too. His style of play is becoming more ineffective the older he gets because he can’t do all the things he could do physically when he was 20-27
@@i_chosen_one_ips432 even 20-27 he was still this bad bro lmao. He would average less points than KD and have like 3 more shot attempts. Bro would turn the ball over and be subpar on Defense. Like he said Russ just can’t shoot 25+ shots to hide the weakness
The Russ that played with KD is NOT the same as this guy….. you idiots need to stop saying that. Ego is something all superstars get when stardom hits. Young Russ was the best defensive point guard in the league and he also played without the ball and got plays drew up for him. Since I haven’t seen a coach give him any off ball plays…. and he like nearly every superstar doesn’t play D until the playoffs. People need to start questioning why the Lakers offense looks like a bunch of guys playing pick up at Rucker. Literally nothing ever happening outside of a few Pick and rolls, everyone just standing around all game every game. This is why so many people praise Kerr and Pop because they implemented a system befitting of their best players while Vogel just has LeBron James, AD and Russ.
@@kvngcjgaming5559 this is false….. Russ with OKC and KD was FAR from “subpar” defensively. You casuals crack me up….. hell even Harden was playing really good D back then.
Mfs say this every year and then go radio silent after he turns it up after the all star break lol
Lonzo would've been a perfect fit for you guys lmao but he shining with the bulls rn💯
Finally mofo couldn’t step up in LA but he confident now so it doesn’t matter we weren’t gonna have that lonzo until now
Spoken, a true basketball hall of famer. 😁
D Wade come back 😢 we need you my guy
This is exactly what I thought back when the first got him. Use him as a workhorse during the regular season so LeBron and AD are fresh for the playoffs...
Alright let's not forget, Russ can bring a lot for the team although it's seems he might be underperforming Russ at his best can bring so much, I feel a team like the Lakers are just not for Russ, Russ is a amazing scorer, amazing rebounder and a good playmaker and needs the ball, when you have other players that needs the ball more it's just doesn't work out
He is not an amazing scorer! And Russ was is one of my favourite players!
He’s a great player but unfortunately his style of play doesn’t translate to rings
@@MrSmurf459 he is a amazing scorer, he's been a amazing scorer, I thought everyone knew this, this man has been getting to the paint with no defense to stop him for atleast 13 years and you say he isnt a good scorer,go watch some film bc Russ has always been a scorer that's what he's known for if not then what is he then, he known as are fast explosive PG that can score off the dribble
Russsux
@@RedZoneBroward It can tho, it has got him into a lot of playoff runs, it's depends on the teams spacing, bc if it was 2017 and Russ was on my team I would find a way to get this man more lanes to move off and on the ball to get us some points, Russ can definitely help a lot offensively not only the spacing affects also the rotations he run with can affect
Dwyane Wade knows exactly what he is talking about that’s what he did when LeBron came to Miami and they won a championship
It’s not about Westbrook it’s all about the team in playing defence. If you can’t shoot at least try to play defence 2x effort.
We already have a guy who does Westbrook stuff on offense, it's THT. We had a guy who plays good D at the PG spot, it was Caruso. I don't know what else to tell you other than the team needs more energy and speed, but they keep letting it go every season. That's not the player or coaches fault.
The Westbrook signing was terrible I said that the minute I heard the rumors they were looking at him and CP3
Russ don't need to change his game. It's the coach to adjust. Russ has been playing the game of his style and it has been effective all throughout his career. I just don't understand why can't make baskets now unlike before so easy. I hope Russ gets back to his groove.
Im a massive westbrook fan and its this thing with bad narrative towards him hes always criticized westbrook is gonna win a championship in a laker jersey 100% all in on westbrook
1:05 "When Shaq go to the bench"
You can take his body off the court, but D Wade's mind lives there full time.
It's still weird to me that D-Wade has been retired for quite some time but Lebron is still playing and scoring 30+ lol
Injuries deteriorated his body and he wanted to focus on his family.
Maybe for injuries he could have been playing
But Lebron was 18 and DWade was 22 when they were drafted.
@@evandertuyac9818 tf does that even mean. Lebron is still averaging more than wade at 37 and lebron playing like 3 more years shldnt that be an advantage to dwade? 😂
@@victordelacruz4449 ???
Russ is my favorite point guard of all time man💯🙏🏽 keep or trade Russ he gone get back on track🙏🏽 facts
I agree, but I don’t think Russ knows what to do off the ball. It’s like a muscle he has never used. He probably feels more productive/useful when he is creating. Problem is, we know he has to adapt or the Lakers aren’t going anywhere.
You could say the same thing about Lebron
That’s why he my favorite player he gone speak facts
He’s actually being disingenuous
"Start packing your bags, I'm Bron's best friend and he even traded me. You ain't safe, enjoy being a Laker for 2 more days brodie"
He sent him back to miami to end his career tho lol u could atleast give credit lebron for that if ur gonna blame him, 😂
they don't have the money to trade him rn the crazy is they were doing great before this trade back last year was not needed
No one wants to take on that over priced contract he got
U thought that was funny didn’t you
I know people will make fun of me for using this analogy but I play competitive gaming online and sometimes having two amazing players in one team doesn't work out. One has to take a backseat and support the other. I started winning more games when I played with lesser skilled players but those players had 'Robin' like qualities, meaning they were supporting me and knowing their roles. They were passive and I was aggressive but it worked out well. In the end you have to know your role, and sometimes THAT ROLE changes depending on the team. Think of what the team needs, sometimes you have to be selfless. There are only a few players in the world that could get away with being selfish and that was Kobe and MJ, but even MJ started learning to trust his team mates better...
Russ struggles trying to play with bron but his ovr numbers really aren't that bad as ppl make it seem
DGrade needs to get his own house in order
Westbrook needs his own team. He thrives better like that.
Ginobli became a legend coming off the bench. he never cared because it was the right game plan to win games and championships. Coming off the bench doesnt need to be such a horrible thing. The bench can save many games.
It's dumb isn't it?...even if you've been the man nobody expects you to ball like that forever...you get older, the body slower but if you let it, your experience and the IQ can extend your legacy in the most valuable way in the game...your ego just has to get out of the way...
Russ biggest flaw is his decision making. I understand taking chances is part of his game. But he takes too many chances. If he fix that, which I know he won't. There will be less turnovers on his part and his shooting percentage will go up.
the LV quarter zip is timeless
Russ is out tonight and i think he's not really injured and he can play but he needs this rest.
When shaq go to the bench i ain't know he came out of retirement but dwade is saying the truth he got to be more of a playmaker
He played with Shaq in Miami. Wade was making an example.
It's easy to put all the blame on Westbrook but in order to get the best version of Russ.. he has to be aggressive and that's hard when u are playing with lebron because he plays on the ball 95 percent of the game.. Russ is in a hard place to be himself 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Finally someone who gets it
@@LanceG007 people who criticize russ don't know about basketball... russ looks lost on the court.. and now his confidence is shot cuz the media is blaming him for the lakers lack of success... that team was poorly constructed and its too old to complete the younger/ better teams
“When Shaq go to the bench…” love you Dwade you meant AD…
No he meant Shaq because he played with Shaq and was giving an example.
He also played with LeBron so both examples he's speaking from his own experience when he played with them on the Heat
Wade is absolutely right. BUT!!! What happened to Lebron's "amazing" leadership skills? Always thought Lebron's culture building and leadership skills were overrated. It happened when he couldn't rally the Heats from winning against the Mavs, it happened when the Cavs imploded, it happened when he couldn't lead the young Laker team with Lonzo and Ingram and was sippin wine courtside while in his street clothes, and it happened again. Lebron decided to bring this Laker team together. He needs to lead it. Not always look for a plan out of every situation until the perfect situation comes to him.
Shaq was yelling the same thing at Russ from the sideline during a game: SLOW DOWN.
D wade is absolutely right. He sacrificed for Bron and Bosh because he knew he had to, and it took nothing away from his legacy.
It certainly did not and D Wade is still the goat of the Miami Heat either way
@@HotspurFC-cu6ny true true it added on to his legacy Russ doesn’t have much to prove but a ring he has to understand that ring will definitely put him at that 5th best pg spot at most
@@HotspurFC-cu6ny and I’m not saying lakers gonna win a ring but if they do and if Russ figures it out when they do then ain’t nothing to say
Man D wade jus gave out the best advice for Russ cause when wade was playing with the heat back then with bron and bosh he is not the D wade that we know that goes coast to coast when both of em is on the cort but when they off the court then he actually goes back to the D wade we know and like.
Nice way of saying come off the bench.
More like, find a different team that he can bond with and don't ride behind LeBron and his coat tails.
Dwade looking sharp with the LV top.
Y'all could not wait for this. 4 years of a triple dubs. Show this man some respect
Respect comes with expectations, don't be soft about it people expect better from him because they respect him if they didn't respect him you wouldn't expect anything that's life.
Ur only as good as your last game. He clearly don't fit with this team. I think he should be traded to Orlando or Sacramento, maybe Toronto. He needs to be the focal point of an offense, where he can just play ISO ball. He reminds me of Allen Iverson, the way he fits with teams.
@@bbthompson05 iso ball with Russell Westbrook is not winning a championship. He’s been in that situation. He’s statistically one of the worst playoff clutch performers because he tries to take over and messes up
@@bbthompson05 that first line is terribly inaccurate
NBA is a "what have you done for me lately" league nobody cares what he did in the past it is what Russ is doing now & right now he is trash, it's bad enough he doesn't see that but his fans like you excuse his bad play by bring up things that happened in the past... it's hard to see players get old but he is getting there & he isn't going to change he is only going to get worse (sad to say)
If there is anyone in basketball that knows about this, it’s D Wade
He need to give his Son some advice....!!!! Rs
@Gibran Camus unqualified for??? if I may ask?
“God damnit Forrest, you are a GENIUS!”
I'm sure multiple coaches have told westbrook these exact things for years. He's not changing now
And this is why Wade is my all time fav player
I feel like Westbrook is a fundamental mismatch for this team. And I say that as a Westbrook fan-I just don’t think he belongs there.
Explain to me what he’s good for as a “Russell Westbrook fan”
Serious question btw I called this his mvp season never saw him as good
Be doesn't fit on any team tryna contend
He belongs on the Thunder with KD and Harden lol-that is where he was a perfect fit, and they never should’ve broken up that team.
@@douglaspinsak1246 no bro, you are so wrong. Westbrick is just a stat paddler, who doesn’t really contribute to win a game. Nobody can win a championship with type of player like westbrook. KD figured out that he will never win a championship with this dude and left OKC. Over his career, he has been only relied on his athleticism. He really doesn’t have any fundamental skill set. Now he is losing his athleticism and he is just getting exposed.
Westbrick is just a turnover and brick machine. Who only cares about the triple double and not winning the god damn game.
I think him/KD/Harden would’ve won 1+ championship if that team didn’t get broken up.
D Wade was flexin with them diamond chains.
Bro we just need to accept the fact he’s declining his athleticism is what he relied on his whole career the older he gets it’s not gonna be that same plus he can’t shoot so he can’t rely on that either
nah i just think he needs to adjust. take a game off or two if he needs to.
He misses easy buckets and is still doin russ things he needs to adjust and stop being russ because you ain't gon win like that
Nah, declined a little bit, isn't the reason. He doesn't know what he is doing out there, lay ups and dunks misses, shooting 3 pts that he has no business trying
Facts, he relied on athleticism his whole career and never developed any skills for the long term. Russ was never a good shooter but always had that go to pull up med range coming off of transition and now he doesn't use it anymore.
His shooting has decline even worse to go along with his fts.
@@talal3c adjust to what he can’t play without the ball he can’t shoot he’s not a great passer he doesn’t play defense he’s just a body out there at this point bro Westbrook is just washed up and it’s really showing
Excellent answer d Wade 👏💯🎯
I actually think the opposite. I think Russ is picking his spots TOO much and not being able to ever get in a flow. He could cut the turnovers back tho
We talkin money. Vogel needs to hear this too.
shesshh
Russell WestBrook has to have one of the strongest mindsets in the NBA, like imagine working your ass off everyday and being roasted and criticized by the media. Like don’t get me wrong WestBrook has a lot to improve on, but it’s gotten to the point where people get mad at him for shooting yet when he stops shooting people get mad at him for not shooting lmao like what
If the lakers lock in on defense russ will start coming together I promise. Him and lebron are litterally two of the best transition scorers of all time
It’s always it’ll get better
Nah Russ is an easy trade… I hope at least we get somthing for it
@@my68chevy2 a trade wont happen nobody wants him like it or not he isn't going anywhere.
Great advice!
Watching OKC from the early days, I've always found it crazy how fans were all taking Russ's side when KD left. If any of them watched the Thunder consistently, they would know Russ was always the problem. Tell me how you have KD on your team, leading the league in scoring every year, yet your PG is taking just as many, if not more shots per game? If KD had any alpha mentality, he would have left the thunder a LONG time ago.
KD 2 titles, Russell - None
Best comment to this matter about russ teaching from experience 👍💯👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Lebron is a problem.....why must every solid player that plays with him give up who they are. That is the problem!
This point of view will gain more traction in the coming years starting next year
LeBron is not the problem,that man can't put the ball 🏀 in the basket for his teammates.Russ is playing like dumb and every team LeBron played for,he were better than all his teammates and the leader of the team until his teammate shows that he better than LeBron until than they need to know their role cause at 37 years old LBJ is still better than a lot of them.
Russ is playing like a bum.
Russ would kick ass if he played with the bench. He can control the pace and be the Russ we know and fear. Buuut I'm a Suns fan so I hope they never figure this out lol.
Good advice honestly as a Russ fan and I like the fact you know if he does end up the second rotation he could definitely do more damage to other teams including the Suns themselves
@@vaanity thanks. Honestly I remember when he first got traded to LA I asked my brother "so who's running the second team, lebron or westbrook?" Cuz I knew they couldn't both run the offense for the starters. Odd that the coaches/owners haven't tried making him 6th man of the year yet.
He's not a good passer AT ALL
And he shoots bricks
how
He's a TO machine
Prob the best advice any of these guys have given. Shaq says playing too fast now hes playing too slow n low energy. Shaq n chuck saying it's not his fault more AD fault, AD goes down, russ still plays bad n doesn't help them win like that, so confidence is shaken. U got to get in where u fit in, play hard like he usually does, defend like he use to, n take pride that most of these PGs shouldn't be out playing him, even if they outscore him, he should still outshine them.
Wade speakin from experience, great advice
Anyone else notice the "when Shaq go to the bench" slip?
😆
it's not , he played with Shaq in miami
The advice starts at : 1:01
I mean coming from DWade, who played with LBJ and Shaq, and won chips that way says enough about how he adapted despite being a star player himself.
I think d wades "advice" should start in house ...
Russ has to go in the off-season and hire a shooting coach. Because as he loses his bounce his game is suffering. If Rondo can become a decent shooter so can Russ.
That's a great advice !!
I don’t think Russ’s athleticism is deteriorating. It’s really just the fact that he doesn’t mesh well with LeBron. It’s happened to several talented players before: Rodney Hood was averaging career highs in Utah until he teamed up with LeBron in Cleveland, Kuz had a great rookie year with LA until LeBron came by, and now that Kuz is on the Wizards what happens? He starts ballin tf out. LeBron is a very difficult player to build chemistry with and the fact that I still hear idiots say “LeBron makes his teammates better” is absolute blasphemy.
Caruso,mo williams, dellavedova, tristan Thompson bank accounts think otherwise🤷🏽♂️
No his athleticism is definitely declining. He's still explosive and more athletic than 80% of the league but he can't get the same amount of lift as he used to (consequences of being 33 with multiple knee surgeries).
Russ you need to take advice from every all time great third option .
Manu
Bosh
Dennis
And others
The look of Rob Pelinka watching the game"
Said alot!!
He looks disappointed!
No effort, d-fence,rebounding,,,let alone pride!
Sounds like the coach isn't adjusting to the players skills set. I had players with limited skills n work rate too yet we went undefeated. Maybe play Russ at 5 n LeBron at PG. AD at PF or SF. Monk at SG. Look at Warriors, they play Draymond at PG.
"when Shaq go to the bench" dawg what you smoking on 🤣
Rus a LBJ should play the 3 and 1 respectively. Rus would be a great slasher, he dont need to shoot jump shots
I feel like there is a magnifying glass on Russ’s play. The Lakers are just not a good team.
