"Obviously, it's something we need to figure out and continue to work toward but I don't think we hit the panic button yet. As a group, we're still dealing with injuries and things like that. We're slowly figuring things out. We were playing at a high level the last two games, this game was a little setback. I think this should motivate us for the next one."
So, while there does need to be urgency in a team with two top-tier players like LeBron James and Anthony Davis playing sub-.500 basketball, it makes sense why you won't see a panic coming from Russell; he's been in every scenario and will always give his best effort regardless of the current situation. Hopefully, getting embarrassed at home will 'motivate' this team, as Russell mentioned, but assuming it will would be unwise at this point.
