I remember asking assistant coach Mo Cheeks, what’s harder to do? Workout after practice or before?? I only asked cuz by time I would get to the gym, Russ was already done in the morning and I usually got mine in after practice. Mo like, “coming in before practice is probably harder”…since then, it’s been my routine….a lot of people looked at the emotions on the court and thought Russ was loud, nah to me, he was quiet and methodical. He lead by example and once the lights were bright, he let everything out and experienced pure freedom. It was inspiring as his teammate and everywhere I went, I seen it inspire people from all walks of life, crazy thing is, he didn’t say much, he just showed up. For 18 years. This basketball life is sacred to us as professionals, what we put into that court means everything. Some of us wish we could go back and do things with a little more intent and some can just wipe their hands and be satisfied with the time spent. Who u gonna be? We know what zero was on…keep inspiring in the next phase of life champ. I don’t care what happens, can’t erase what it was…The first YNs, finals run in our early 20s, all star games, seeing each other get injured and bounce back, the bus rides, plane rides, card games, jokes and arguments, the whole thing, memorable!! …to the whole Westbrook family, Nina, the kids, mama Westbrook, big Russ, Ray, Donnell, everybody from luezinger high and ucla and many more that I’m forgettin, much love and Congratulations on a iconic career.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart,and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.
-Proverbs 3:5-6-

For as insane/dramatic/tragic of a game this was it’s still not talked about enough by the fanbase. 2 quarters were enough to strip away a lot of people’s emotions towards the cowboys and I personally know people that stopped watching the entire team in general
In this world we WILL have TRIBULATION! We need to start respecting the word of GOD & prepare for the dysfunctions of life instead we prepare for the successes of life not understanding that the successes illuminates our dysfunctions. (PREACH PRIME) I just did! #CoacPrime
Cowboys coaching search has proven, without a doubt, that Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones, are unfit to be running this team, completely inept and unfit #DallasCowboys
Be ready so u don't have to get ready. God wants to bless u but u ain't ready! You've got to clean your life up because God won't bless no mess. Right now you can't handle the blessing u desire because your house, life, thoughts & circle ain't ready! God waiting on u! #CoachPrime
