JJ Redick DESTROYS Chris Russo On ESPN's First Take

Former NBA Star JJ Redick absolutely obliterated Chris "Mad Dog" Russo during a debate on ESPN's First Take where Russo was complaining about Draymond Green and his playing style, saying that Draymond should just "shut up and play". Redick took exception to this comment and put Russo in his place for the racist undertones of his attack on Green. Rick Strom breaks it down. Give us your thoughts in the comments below!

JJ is a player's host, a real good guy who knows the league and the players, defends them from bs hot takes and "criticism" like this. Nothing but respect

[football]

JJ will be a TV star for a long time now that he’s done playing, knows what he’s talking about and isn’t afraid to say anything

[MrAlvarez]

Draymond gave JJ his flower yesterday in his podcast.

JJ put Mad Dog in check

[davidpouncy]

Reddick put Maddog to shame !! He schooled him very professionally and articulately. The sky is the limit for Reddick as a analysts on espn. I can see him with his own show in the future.

We know why Stephen A Smith was silent.

[theshogunsassassin]

The bigger question should be how come Stephen A didn’t have the same energy

[YouCallThataKnife]

As someone who cannot stand Draymond Green and doesn't think he's entertaining, I still think the "shut up and play" bs is always ugly and always racially tinged. I don't have to want to listen to the guy. You don't have to listen to him. No one does. But he has a right to his voice, and he should have that right

[waltporter]

JJ did what Stephen A was supposed to do but instead he just sat there as quiet as a church mouse waiting for the opportunity to hate on Kyrie.

[canucanoe]

JJ Redick is the real deal. Smart, articulate, topical, informed.... and right.

[Alanboy]

As someone who has watched JJ work on First Take, he has given no less than top quality analysis on ESPN without hysterics. Just thoughtful, informed, and careful perspective on the NBA. I have been completely impressed with him.

[easyced]

my boy JJ definitely invited to all the cookouts

[zionreid]

JJ might've been 44% from the field during his basketball career. But he's always 100% on First Take.

[RoselynNY]

What JJ said on this segment is one for the ages. I'll remember what he said spontaneously. Much respect as a human being. All Fox watchers should learn something from this man. This is one bold, intelligent person who just schooled someone who could care less what kind of time we are living in. I'd imagine about a third of USA is just like this clown, Chris Russo.

When you order Skip Bayless from wish.

[jumpingthroughhoops]

I'm bouta but me a Reddick jersey. He is breathing life into Sports Talk

[ameermcneil]

Steven ain’t going to say shit thanks JJ

[angeljimenez]

JJ invited to the cookout. He just speaking facts to this bozo's face.

[mauriciorosas]

He really pulled the “but I got a black friend” card when talking about last generations players 😂

[AM]

JJ went back into sniper mode on this one

[KonaSaint]

JJ bout to get "Maxed" for getting the invite to the BBQ instead of Stephen.
