    Russell and Clarkson aren't a good combo. They're having to share ball handling duties which relegates Russell to a spot up shooter at times, and is ineffective.

    When i see Randle, I feel like dude is gonna get hurt or something because he doesn't understand anything other than 100mph

      Randle needs confidence in his jumper.

        Even when Randle does something great it still looks like it should have been a turnover or injury lol.

          Nice you guys are very encouraging.

          Even as raw as he is Randle finds way to be effective. He can rebound, drive, dish, bring the ball in transition, finish at the rim. He also seems to have a good work ethic, a competitive spirit and the desire to be good.

          I think his play (for basically a rookie) has been very impressive.

          He will need a consistent jumper and a right hand.

            Randle is going to be good. He has the tools, just needs the arsenal which I have no doubt he will obtain.

              Russell and Clarkson won't become a good combo until they log heavy minutes together every night and learn how to play off of each other. You don't need to be a spot-up shooter to play next to another guy who can handle the ball.

                I don't see any reason why Russell and Clarkson can't work together. They had some good sequences together yesterday and they actually compliment each other pretty well.

                Russell is just very young and needs playing time with the starters. I don't get why he elevates so little on his jumper though.

                Clarkson looks like a completely different player from his first minutes in the NBA. You can tell how much difference a season and 40 games as a starter makes. That's why it drives me crazy to have russell on the bench in the 4th (he played 20 minutes) just to watch Lou ****ing williams chuck it up anychance he gets.

                  Byron has Russell afraid to make mistakes, so much of his natural play style is being hampered by hesitancy. Mudiay had like 11 TO's the other day, but he's being allowed to figure things out without the fear of a 4th quarter benching. Russell needs to be allowed to play with the same reckless abandon that Randle is allowed to play with. Yes, he's the PG, he still needs to be allowed to make a ton of mistakes to hasten his development.

                  Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

                    Scott literally had the audacity to use Lou Williams' performance as the reason Russell couldn't get back in the game LOL

                    Because you know. Playoffs and such.

                          I agree with you both.

                          I just think it's funny to see a guy who has lots of athleticism and talent look that awkward all the damn time. You usually see it when kids are 16 and still growing into their bodies. Not after a year of college and in their 2nd year of professional basketball.

                          Not disrespecting his game at all, he's just humorous to watch. Kinda like MKG's jump shot is humorous to watch.

                                Yeah, the Spurs just acted like it was no big deal, because for them it wasn't, it was just like the Cavs-76ers game the other day, when they were down LeBron was just sitting on the bench completely unconcerned with the deficit.
