Russ answers questions to other media members in standard way. I'm subscribed to a Thunder pod and they play post game clips. He certainly kept the same next question to Tramel though
Out of all the players in the league why is it only like 4-5 of them that have this issue. Maybe there’s something wrong with Kyrie Westbrook Durant etc and not the reporters or anybody elseIn that same vein,John Torterella is a fan favorite coach in the NHL mainly for the way he stays dressing down and trolling reporters in press conferences
Feels like those OKC writers would have nervous breakdowns if they had to interview beast mode

They cannot be serious
. Like 80% of sports media is designed to eat at a player's self esteem and they're just expected to deal with it. This is straight out the MAGA playbook of pleading innocence while accusing others of your own guilt

He isn't talking about the past though. The Celtics have beaten them 3 times now in this series and won the previous 3 regular season games.
Probably no chance that Indy not scoring for 11 minutes could have anything to do with good defense either I'm sure.

People have such entitlement to celebrities these days, they feel as if they have to cater to every single thing they expect of them.

Obviously, America is racist.
But, the NBA lengthy suspensions became a thing after malice at the palace and have slowly been going down. Even this year, CP3 beating the dog**** out of Rondo was widely celebrated and there were minor repercussions. Are there lengthy suspensions in football for fighting?
Andre Johnson did this to Finnegan and only received a 25k fine. No suspension
Baseball players almost always get suspended for fights.
Hockey seems to be the only one where it is outright accepted as part of the game. And yes, I think skin color has a lot to do with it.
True, but baseball suspensions amount to a game for pitchers and for the others, since the season is so long it doesn't even matter
that CP3 suspension cost them the 2 seed Suspensions aside, I think the perception of what's acceptable and what is not is getting better but like you said, racism is still thriving. I probably read the comment sections of clips too much though

Wut. So was he. The Celtics are 6-0 against the Pacers in the year 2019.

Even the reporters that cover this league are soft.
I don't blame the players. Reporters ask a lot of dumbass questions. The "walk us through what was going through your mind...." line of questioning might be the WOAT.
**** NBA reporters.

Chris Paul got suspended for a whopping TWO games.True, but baseball suspensions amount to a game for pitchers and for the others, since the season is so long it doesn't even matter

Damn, your homer goggles have to be incredibly strong to chalk this one up as some sort of genius achievement
Sweeping the Pacers whose best player is Bogdan Bogdanovic. They did it, guys! They finally got the most out of Kyrie Irving, Gordon Hayward, Jayson Tatum, Al Horford, Jaylen Brown and Marcus Morris. And they even got 100 points in the process one time.
The funny thing is I never even called Stevens "highly overrated". You just slobber so intensely that you can't look past anything other than prostrating before the "President".

I don't know whos gonna have a bigger awakening between the Bucks & Celtics in regards to next round, both have played extremely underwhelming squads. However Milwaulkee has just been violating the Pistons where The Pacers have kept it relatively close 2/3 games.

The Pacers should have never been expected to be blown out in a majority of the series. They are built to keep games close and aren't devoid of talent like Detroit is

But how many quarters have the Pacers won?

Pacers have had quarters of 16, 12, and 8 points. Milwaukee is not doing that

No one is chalking anything up to some genius achievement. Pretty much every Celts fan on here expected the team to win in 5 games or so.Damn, your homer goggles have to be incredibly strong to chalk this one up as some sort of genius achievement

You came with your garbage McMillan/Stevens take on Sunday and are deservingly getting clowned for it.

Basically my argument was the way they are playing right now isn’t going to be enough to beat The Bucks.
They are beating Indy 100%, never questioned that it’s the next round where the run may end
If they were on the other side of the east bracket then I could easily see them getting to the ECF

Yeah?
Imagine your whole life you work to get to the level of journalism to even be in those rooms to speak to NBA players and every single day the main dude you gotta talk to puts on some high school bully act every single day in front of everyone in the room. In front of all of the cameras and microphones for every person on social media to go back and watch and listen to. While making MAYBE 50k per year trying to support your family.
If you think that’s being a grown *** ***** instead of Westbrook acting like he’s the only athlete on the planet that has to answer questions after games then I don’t know what to tell you.

Ready to see Atkinson's adjustment to Simmons being the roll man and if BB has a counter to that adjustment for Simmons
