This is the same guy who kept the ball from KD to close games. I'm 100% convinced if he shared the court with Steph he would take the game winning 3 without even considering Steph taking it. He has not grown one bit as a pg since then. If I can be guaranteed that Luka has the ball to close the game and not Russ(and that Russ doesn't throw a tantrum about it) then sure great.
He's a freak of an athlete and fills up the box score(to the detriment of the team at times) like none other. But imo he is the typical "not a winning player" player. I'd trade KP for him sure but I'm open to a lot of options with KP and trades.
I also think there is a better than fair chance that a murder could occur in a locker room with Russ and Rick.

I think Russ is given a tough break at times. I don't know why his stats don't equate to more success. That's definitely shocking that it doesn't especially in the East......
I'm more excited about a acquisition of a Westbrook because it would mean Luka would have to do less. It would give us a ball handler when Luka sits.
