Reporter: Do I look an Idiot to you? I've been waiting all day just to ask you this question so that I can feed my family because it's my job. Russ: Idk Next Question Lmao 😂

[@Uchawibeatz]

Russ doesn't handle criticism well, and that's why he will never improve. As much as I would want him to win someday, that's never going to happen

[@jc9240]

I will never understand how someone could earn and represent a $200 Million Basketball Contract and be so un-happy while in his profession and represent the worst of being an Ambassador and Representative of his Team and League,

[@immjaded-2676]

Jerry Cerezo unhappy ? Nigga he keeps it really regardless of who likes it or not. That’s not unhappy foh

[@810stokem8]

So money fuels you huh? Have y’all forgot that his friend just passed away. Chill man

[@tonycollins9082]

He ain’t a winner straight up his mindset and attitude ruins him it’s a shame a guy with that talent will never really win you either got it or you don’t

[@Kinggoon89]

Jerry Cerezo easy next question he’s getting paid for his play on the basketball court not answering questions

[@nazgul12000]

Just like Embiid said Russ is always into his feelings 😂😂. Everything seems to bother Russ.

It’s called being emotional

Richard-Mekhi Brown it’s called being TOO emotional. He’s a grown man and he needs to get over himself

Yep,even the ICE cream man bothers Russ. Puppies bother Russ.life bothers Russ.

Seems like he’s doing it to prove a point now. Which he should, I’ve never seen a grown man ask like a little bitch like Westbrook does in interviews

KD responding to every comments made about him by the media and sometimes by fans = soft WB answers next question every time he loses playoff games = tough guy I got my calculator and it told me it doesn't add up

[@kame99023]

Because you are too dumb that the real world is about nuance.

[@diogoalves1443]

There is a middle term my dude. You don't need to be responding to people on social media but you should talk to reporters. Look at what LBJ does.

[@benjaminbremer4261]

Making multiple fake social media accounts just to go after fans is a sign of weakness. If you want to tell fans off, be a man and do it on your own account/in person

They found a way to bring up Lebron again Have they talked about how the blazers won? Damian lillard ? All this Westbrook bs

[@matthewroreilly]

You bitching about 5 seconds lol, it’s a good point, Westbrook wants the money but not to do everything he’s obligated, he’s using a guy who’s been interviewed after losing the finals and still answered the hard questions. Like cmon bruh.

[@matthewroreilly]

Joel Johnson exactly I don’t know why you get paid millions and can’t talk about the shit you did at work to the people that basically are the reason your salary is so high, the media gets the news and everything else to the fans.

OKC had no choice but to sign him... once PG13 leaves... its Russell, triple doubles and maybe missing the playoffs altogether

[@dopefresh6231]

And who tf are you BUM??? The media is literally kissing his ass and licking his balls when he's LOSING. Down 3-1. Why? Oh yeah DOI! He's a fucking superstar and former MVP of the league! LIterally!!!!

[@RASHTG]

True. He has been like that for YEEEEEARS. Believe or not but I used to be an OKC fan until they lost to the GSW thanks to Westbrick. People tend to forget that. He took their last possession’s shot while KD was on the floor wide open. That’s how they lost the 5th game. Then KD gave up and I can’t blame him.

[@evwittmann3041]
