PAC is one of my favorite wrestlers of all time. I was lucky enough to meet my hero, work with my hero, but even more lucky to get to know him. He was a better man than I ever could have hoped for.

I am heartbroken.

I love you, Ben. Rest easy mate.

when a fair value contract drops it's always very funny watching people scramble to either call it a scam or call it an overpay. we don't have to have extreme reactions to everything you know

[Kevin Durant @KDTrey5]

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.

Alperen Sengun says he deleted his Twitter because of angry fans:

“When we lost games, everyone looking from the outside tried to attack us and find any small thing they could pick on. They tried to pit us against each other. Attacking me through the coach. Because there are so many people out there who want to see us fail, you know? That’s actually why I deleted Twitter. After a certain point, I said, ‘What a dangerous place this is.’ It really drains a person mentally. It makes you second-guess and think, ‘Could something that isn’t real actually be true?’ Such wild things came out.”

Sengun: "My fans will never view me negatively. I notice this. Like, there are areas where I perform poorly, and I see that myself. But… they’ll always blame others. I’m not that kind of person, though. I always hold myself accountable." #Rockets

Alperen Şengün’s PR is completely cooked after last season.

Seems like a ton of Rockets fans are checked out on him.. Seeing a ton of pessimism surrounding him from his highlights today.

He does need to improve.. But I need him to have an All NBA season next year. He’s capable.

After, Sengun asked Amen how his English sounded.

Thompson: “You messed up one part but it was so good I don’t even care.”
