If you don't want Russ in the paint then why even put him on the court?

He is crashing the paint without the ball on a team that prefers to work within 15-18 feet of the basket. He is bringing his defender into the paint and leaving him there this disrupting our offense.

With the ball in his hands, it makes sense and even then his current athletic ability is not allowing him to be as explosive as he once was.
