    I once asked Russell Westbrook what he did on his day off, and he responded, “Minded my own business and stayed out of yours.”

    Tremendous. Jayson Tatum says he might’ve still gone to Duke instead of taking $500K in the G League. Bradley Beal: "So Duke gave you $600K?" Tatum: "Hey, Duke might be the only stand-up school in the country." Beal: "Listen man, I was born, but I wasn’t born yesterday."

    NBA should have two fans at each game. One home fan and one away fan on opposite sides of the arena. And they have to chant and cheer and scream trash talk each other from across the room.

    Reporter asks Russ how he approaches the Warriors game. Russ: “what’s my answer?” Reporter: “probably just yes.” Russ: “No, no, no. What’s my answer? How do I approach it? What’s my answer.” Reporter: “you play every game the same way.” [walks off]
