"The structure is different" - Angelo Russell brutally digs the Lakers in a public statement

In a recent public appearance, former Lakers player D'Angelo Russell mocked and sarcastically sarcastically and sarcastically at the Los Angeles Lakers. Russell played twice with the Lakers, and was traded to the Brooklyn Nets in 2017 and February this year. He will play for the Dallas Mavericks next season after signing a two-year contract.

At the end of June Fanatic Festival, Russell talked about his time with the Nets on Dwayne Wade's "Suspension" podcast. The game was held in New York, so he expressed love for the city and the Nets because they taught him how to be a professional player.

This seems to be a subtle attack on the Lakers, who described the Lakers as an organization with different structures.

"The organization in Brooklyn is different," Russell said (16:56). "It's not the same as anything else. The performance team, the coach, everything in Brooklyn is different from what you think. I've been to a league, I'm from the Lakers, and the structure is different. Then I went to Brooklyn, and everything there is structured, and it taught me how to be a professional."

D Angelo Russell added that he had no work ethics early in his career, and his career began in Los Angeles, which was the trough of the team. His first term was full of drama, including Nick Young’s situation, which affected his reputation as a locker room guy.

But when he was traded to Brooklyn, Russell learned the right NBA life. He learned how to properly train, eat, sleep and recover. He thinks this is why he still has a career in the league and enters his 11th season.

Dangelo Russell signed a two-year, $13 million contract with the Dallas Mavericks

Dallas Mavericks are one of the biggest winners this year, especially after signing No. 1 Cooper Flag. The Lakers also renewed their contracts with Irving and Gafford, and signed D'Angelo Russell, a two-year contract worth $13 million.

Irving will miss most of next season due to a knee injury recovery. Signing Russell gave the Lakers some flexibility in personnel, and the former second pick will serve as starting point guard in the absence of Irving.

When Irving returns from injury, Russell can play side by side with him, although he may be the best fit for the sixth man. He is a full-fledged scorer, and the only adjustment is in his new role.
