Dude, Russ has been declining since the second half of 2020. It’s all right there in black and white. All you have to do is look it up.
Russ peaked a few years ago and then in 2020 got off to a phenomenal start and was the MVP front runner for a while. But the guy just hit a wall in the second half of that season (again, check the numbers) and he’s never been the same ever since.
Whether it’s Father Time, his declining athleticism or injury issues (turning into a broke dick?), something changed and he hasn’t been the same guy he was ever since the second half of the 2020 season.
The evidence is all right there. Whether you choose to see it and believe it is up to you . . . . . .
