And maybe Luka needs to control the ball less. Something needs to change because what we currently doing isn't working.

I actually posted a thread this season about trading for Westbrook
I mentioned despite his contract he could have played the same role the mavs were envisioning Wright and Richardson to play next to Luka accept Russ is 10xs the player of either one.
So many nights when this team lacked energy or didn't play hard. Refused to attack the rim or couldn't get out in transition. Russ fixes all those issues and he finally started clicking next to Beal.
I would have shipped out Richardson, Powell, Brunson and Kleber for Russ in a heart beat when his trade value was low around January and Febuary.
This team needs a pitbull type player like Russ.
