I think the question is: what made him feel that way?
He says quite literally "Going to the hall two hours early felt like others would see it as ass kissing".
Right, and I guess I'd say that can just be a Risto thing, it's not necessarily about the culture. Like, I'd worry about the same thing in that situation, and that's just me. I understand wanting to read more into it, but I feel he'd be more guarded were he actually commenting on the team's culture. This sounds kinda bad, but that makes me think he meant nothing and doesn't feel there's an issue. Otherwise I hope it would be expressed in other ways, but who knows? I just don't see Risto throwing his team under the bus like that, dude has been through worse things than workout situations in Buffalo and hasn't complained.
edit- I understand it's about more than the workout situation, but ya get my meaning- dude's played 25 minutes a night with shit teammates, if he felt they weren't trying or were creating a lazy anti-work atmosphere I think we'd know through some other way
