it was always about the fit, which makes the trade puzzling since it was Bron who pushed for it in the first place.

Problem is the Lakers getting Russ was that nobody could fucking shoot on that team (LeBron included) and Bron essentially said “fuck it, I’ll do it myself” by like the 3rd or 4th week of the season and took over playmaking duties (to be fair he was still the best playmaker, but wasn’t his reason for getting Russ was to delegate that part?)
