Dipo has always reminded me of a poor man's version of Russ. You really find it surprising that he's better running his own show?

He's 10th in usage and with his attitude/the way he plays, of course he isn't going to flourish with Russ.

They’ll figure it out. It’s crazy how they keep playing terrible late in games, though

It is not surprising at all. No. Russ doesn’t draw the best outta his mates.

What about his play causes you to say this?

Do you think Harden will get the most out of CP3?

takes too many bad shots. Dominates the ball too much where other guys get to standing around watching. Just doesn’t have that feel/hoops IQ that the best playmakers have.

Sometimes, maybe. He plays a lot like Harden, IMO. You like Harden, I'd assume.

Do you think James will get the most out of CP3? I assume Paul's stats will improve now that he's with a guy who can get the most out of him, no?

Westbrook couldn’t even lead his team to a league average offense.

Harden lead a team of role players to a top 10 offense of all time.

one guy has the ability to run an all time great offence pretty much on his own and the other doesn’t know how to get the best outta his guys. He gets his(inefficiently) at the expense of his teammates.

Boomy, what are your thoughts on the Pels so far? A little better than expected? Seems like they’ll be above .500 by years end to me.

I take it you're saying Chris Paul's stats won't improve..?

Pels will win about 40 and miss the playoffs. they just don’t have the leadership and know-how to beat good teams in close games IMO.

Chris came to play with James bc he wanted to play off ball more and he wanted to the title. Chris knowingly is sacrificing on the counting stats to win. And win big.

Don’t see anyone saying that. The consensus was that he is better than ryno. But with ryno or with Melo CC is the second best team. So he is not a guy that gets them over the hump nor did they need him to be second best.

I wouldn't want him as a Laker fan. Not sure who all is available, though.

Does he even want to be second fiddle again in L.A.? We know whose team that is.
