The Q&A: Russell on his health, the Olympics and today's NBA | NBA.com

NBA.com: Bill Bradley called you by far the smartest player to ever play in the NBA. Who among today's players stands out from a basketball IQ standpoint?

Russell: I don't think there is such a thing as a great athlete who's dumb. He knows what he's doing and the great ones never approach a game and see what's going to happen, they approach the game to make things happen.
I would never say who is the smartest but there are some players who stand out. Derrick Rose, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash. Those guys all know what they're doing. They go out to do things, not to see what's going on.


NBA.com: No one played with more pride than you did during your career. Who among today's players play with the most pride?

Russell: That's hard to say. Which pride? Pride is what? Pride in how my team does or pride in how I do? See, that's two different kinds of pride. I always look at the guys when they do their best, does it help the team. There are some guys who can have a tremendous night statistically and their team loses.
Players today such as Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose, LeBron, these guys are first and foremost team guys. A player who doesn't get much attention and is one of my favorites to watch is Joakim Noah. The Bulls don't utilize some of his skills. Not only is he a good rebounder but he's an excellent passer. A good passer is more important to a team than a good shooter on offense.
These guys are among my favorites to watch.
I like to see if they can take a guy's skills and have them contribute to winning.

:wow:

goddamn this boy d rose trying to make the start of training camp lol

slow it down franchise, we need you for the coming years

but this is a shot right in the face of people who swore he wasnt coming back this season

d-gawd back by mid janurary.

i think they go play it by success. if it look like we struggling with the record he comes back after the all star break, but if we top 4 in the east with a shot to get the 1 seed he back by mid janurary.
