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.
This story is so nuts. A Jewish man sees two other Jewish men in a car driving down the road in Miami, he thinks they are Palestinians so he pulls up on them and unloads 17 rounds into their car.
THEN when the two victims are in the hospital recovering, they post about the attack on social media and literally end their post with “De*th to Arabs.”
Three strangers. All Jewish. And they all hate Arabs so much that one tries to kill the other two because he thinks they’re Arabs and then the other two blame Arabs for the attack. WTAF???
Innocent civilians have been identified in these photographs.
Stripped, humiliated, abused by Israel with US funding. Cheered on by the American right.

🇵🇸 - Explosions
an open box of dates, two holy books, some walkies, books, a single pair of handcuffs, fewer weapons than the standard american hospital, all spread out over a massive table, as proof that one of the most militarized states in the world needed to kill doctors and nicu babies
When Notre Dame burned the entire world mobilized within hours to deliver monetary and moral support to France in reconstructing the cathedral. But ancient Muslim sites like this are bombed and destroyed routinely with the international community’s express approval.
This was the intention all along. They want to displace Palestinian people. They want them off that land. White supremacy always presents solutions to problems they created themselves. PALESTINIAN DON'T WANT TO COME BE SECOND CLASS CITIZENS IN CANADA. THEY WANT TO BE PALESTINIAN.
