I am watching Ohio Vs. MSU, the Ohio players other then Russell don't appear to be talented nor well coached. They often turn the ball over and can't buy a basket.

I wonder what this kid could look like playing with great talents around him. Unlike man, he is not selfish

Thank God Fisher is no longer our coach, now let's get Calderon out of here:)

D. Russell is a little not too aggressive enough. He is the most talented player on the team, but he does not demand the ball enough

Thats what killed my basketball career....most talented...too passive. He can change but the question is when? Some players stay like that and become solid roll players. Others turn into stars. But its a hard transition for a natural unselfish guy. Hes only 19....he has time. But thats the difference with the great ones.....they wanted to be the man ay an early age....and had the skills to match. OK4 has it on offense. You can see him demanding the ball.

Born in Brooklyn, Raised in Queens, Lives in Maryland. The future is bright, I'm a Knicks fan for life!

With the right coaching and the right veteran leadership, he will be ok. But our ownership doesn't value veteran leadership

Shouldn't be too much of a transition for him then if he plays for us next season

not to get off topic but what position did you play and which level if you dont mind me asking. I was a point guard so being unselfish was part of the job lol
