What happened to the reports saying he wasn’t coming back?
Lollll and they said he wasn’t returning
Wonder if this indicates that Paul George is going to stay
A good reminder to never believe any rumor reports, just wait til you see the official confirmation of anything because a lot of the time nobody knows until the deal is done
Snip snap snip snap
well it’s not surprising but the team has another expiring contract they need to move for something along with PJ.
WE’RE SO BACK
You deserved more but I’m happy I’ll be able to get that red Brodie jersey.
Sign and trade?
Shit I’m out ✌️
Maybe he’s part of a package
So his agent tested the market and it sucked
Much needed reality check for Russ stans
I hope they flip him in the Paul George trade
I really hope it’s an opt in to be traded type thing
Nice I like this run it back
Happy to see Russ back. He’s an awesome leader and spark off the bench.
That said, still hope we can grab a vet minimum point guard (yes, they’ll be old) to help run the offense come playoff time.
I’m cool with him coming back. He brought energy and surprisingly good defense off the bench. Still a very good play maker, though he needs to improve his finishing around the basket. His shooting and inability to stretch the floor will always be a concern with certain lineups, but it’s not a bad thing to have Brodie as an option. The only downside is having another older player taking time away from the development of early 20s players like Bones Hyland.
Lets fucking go!!!
11 wins in 8 years. Let’s keep believing!
responses in this topic is exactly why most fans want Russ off the fucking team because people become unbearable with his stan shit. Russ opting in doesn’t mean he’s going to be on the damn team. He very well could be working with the team to get something in return but it’s not like he has many landing spots.
I thought sources said he was going elsewhere???!?
