    It's Russell's voice for sure, then he tweeted "Let's be real!" Whatever that means...

    basically Nick Young saying he slept with a 19 year old after the club last summer I believe, and D'Angelo asks how old is he, to which he replies 30.
    Then D'Angelo asks have you tried Amber Rose? To which Young replies "No, she know my girl"...

    What???? Come on, why would he do that???? Rhetorical question, not questioning the poster here. Kobe you could understand "sort of" in his case, mentioning Shaq when the cops were first questioning him in CO. He was scared out of his gourd. Even then, the snitch thing kind of stuck to him for a long time. DAR seems like a smart kid and why would he purposely f*** with Nick's life like that? I hope there is some explanation or clearing up of what this seems like it could be. Yikes.

    My guess is his legs are just fatigued coming near the end of the season. A lot of rookies seem to fade late in their first year due to the fact that their bodies aren't used to the demands of a long NBA season. In fact, the same thing happened with Kobe his rookie year, which he attributed to his weak legs in his infamous airball bonanza against Utah in the playoffs. The next year, he came in with stronger legs to be better prepared for the grind. I hope D'Angelo takes initiative and does the same.

    Ehhh.... I don't believe he did this, or at least, wasn't the one recording it and releasing it.

    No one is that dumb, right?

    It was definitely him. You can see his leg tattoo in the video. Unless the person recording the video was sitting in his lap.

    This is.. bad to say the very least if that is Russ actually recording the video. If it's him and Nick just talking and someone else recording that's something else, but I don't see how that would be the case. Who would be in the room with them recording? Even if Russ never intended this to get out, why in the hell would you record that at all. If this is true, teammates are gonna have to watch what they say around him, and be looking at him while speaking to him to make sure he's not recording, or hell, maybe even pat him down or check for a wire. I mean seriously, what in the world? This is the biggest WTF of the season for me now, you can't have the supposed future leader of your team doing this. He better have some kind of amazing explanation for this, like "I'm imitating Phil Jackson and preparing early to write my book".

    may I reiterate that I really don't like who Russell and Clarkson are hanging out with? bad freaking news. don't go javaris on me, bros.

    it's fairly obvious that Russell is immature. he needs to be surrounded by folks who aren't if he's going to grow up and be a leader.

    Nick will be gone this summer. Jordan has proved to be a hard-worker and Russell has proven to be the same. As far as the video, Russell was just at Nick's son's birthday party and they get along from what I understand, so I don't know what would motivate Russell to do something like that? Seems odd, but who knows...

    Yup, that's Russ. Major screw up, he really shows that he's 19 (or 20 depending on the filming date) here, major immaturity. Hope this is a lesson in that when you're in the spotlight this stuff can be gotten to, can't imagine the damage control that will have to be done now so that Young doesn't take a swing at him. Why record this, why? Puts a whole new spin on him saying the lack of trust in last night's game was on him.
