as a Russ fan, Pat Bev didnt lie... but he owes Russ for fukking up his career on that dirty knee play
but the facts he hit were actual... so I cant say he was just reaching for the sake of making it up to him
on the Lebron thing, I'd say at the end of your career... you might as well have just supported Russ on your way out to get him into the front office of his hometown team. Its not like you are winning again so might as well help the older guys get in a position to win long term.
and with Russ saying fake friendly shyt, I cant say he's not right. But you gotta expect it with Lebron, he's the superstar of the league he has to hold his reputation. Russ isnt great anymore... he's valuable as a coach or conditioner, or obviously just a vet role. To let him fall to the last team to want him is bullshyt really.
