    He's a good passionate dude, despite his on court decisions.

    He is a high quality person. Jimmy Carter is also a high quality dude.... doesn’t mean I want either shooting jumpers for me.

    Better to leave it in the room than keep her in the house.

    What a nice guy who is doing good things with the money he is getting for not being as good of a ballplayer as his contract! :cool:

    Dude came in injured for the POs and made Harden look dumb and exposed in elimination just like every year when he doesn't have good support.

    Sorry Russ, maybe next year.

    That's my man. Maybe his parents or family worked in the house keeping hotel industry? Love people that know how to clean up after themselves.

    Russ needs to spend 3 months practicing getting an easy bucket from a 4-on-3 half-court offense, with rim protection, in 3 seconds.

    But sharing your wealth with people who work hard? That's real class. He's a good man.

    Russ is a Nike/JB player that has the best PR people, this was obvious that this story was "leaked" to ESPN almost immediately after it happened. They know he played like absolute trash, they know he is extremely overpaid and likely ruined a championship contending team that he ends up being the main reason said team will be dismantled. A lot of blame has been placed on him, but not even close to enough considering the dominos that will fall as a result of him tanking the franchise. This is a classic play from the agent playbook, typically you over tip at a restaurant, but there is no in restaurant dining currently so they told him to leave a tip for housekeeping for a positive press story. This story was on the top page of ESPN while the NBA finals, MLB playoffs, NFL etc were still being played.

    Oh also he has a new two pack JB + Converse collab coming that was announced the same day lol, imagine releasing a featured or signature limited pack immediately after that type of performance. We've all seen how Russ treats any civilian in his 10+ years in the league, don't be so gullible.
