Overtime....Russell is not selfish enough to be a megastar. He should have kept the ball and took the last shot
Thank God Fisher is no longer our coach, now let's get Calderon out of here:)

It does seem that way. I'm about to go nerd on this analogy but he is like regular Goku but all of a sudden he will power up and go Super Saiyan by display some elite next level skills. When he actually flexes his ball handling skills you see a little Curry or Kyrie in him.

Russell may have the best court vision for a college player in a very very long time.

I'm just talking about his ball handling. You have to get over your Kyrie hate.

Beginning to warm up to the idea of taking him over the defenseless OK4

Russell or Towns. Damn glad I'm not the one to make the decision

I think one of Russell next step will be to display his actual athleticism and use his size on back screens to catch lobs. He also need to go on the "anti-shved" diet and training program.

I like his game. A little worried about his motor. Seems to take a back seat sometimes.

His shooting is great. Good handle and good passer.

The biggest need we have is cohesion and talent. Russell will single handedly run your team... You gotta take him no matter what... He will be the best player in this class in 2 years. If we get the first pick trade Okafor for Russell n stuff

This was the first time I've watched Russell play this year and....wow.

Phil and the Knicks have a tough decision this off-season...I think the question is how comfortable are they with letting A.Shved/Galloway run the show? How confident are they with coming away with a legit big man during free agency?

I'm part of the "draft OK4" camp but I also feel that, when building an NBA team, you have to start with the PG position. If crop that we currently have are not part of the future plan than I think the Knicks have to seriously consider this kid.

Russell is a taller version of D. Lillard, but a much better shooter
