Man seeing him in this clip kinda makes me sad how everyone just shits on Russ all the time. Like I get it that’s what’s gonna happen when you underperform in the spotlight but damn he really does just seem like such a nice guy lol

I kind of feel bad for Westbrook. He gets so much hate that he was surprised and happy when a reporter said something positive about him.

This is amazing lmao who is she? It sounds like she’s collecting basketball data to take back to another planet

Next game: “Russ it seems like something spectacularly bad happens every time you touch the ball. Your shots are so incredibly off that we’re not sure how you get the confidence each day to take them. I had to check if there was another basket in the stands that you were aiming that today. Do you have to think ahead of time how to drain the life out of your team or does it just happen off natural god given instinct?”

It’s like she’s writing his cover letter for him.

Westbrook is going to leak info and rumors to her now. She will become the Sham/Woj of Westbrook’s world.

He got happy as hell, but the crazy thing is, she wasn’t saying anything over the top. This man is super athletic and one of the greats. Love this dude.

That sounds like a 12 year old whose wish for make a wish was to ask Russell Westbrook a post game question

You can tell he was just waiting for that comment to turn backhanded 😂😂

Bro when people are just fucking nice randomly it can be the biggest boost of dopamine a person can feel. I’ve got good parents who’ve been divorced since I can remember.. my dad is patient and kind but has a hard time hearing me in the moment and has his head in the clouds. My mom is extremely proud of me and always loyal to me/on my side but her expectations can be soooo high at times where I can do 9 things right but she’s too focused on the 10th that she doesn’t believe was good enough. My wife’s parents are just not able to celebrate our victories or commend us for the job we’re doing as parents ourselves to our sweet, smart, kind and extremely well behaved 2 and 5 year old daughters.
All that to say, last night we were eating out on a Tuesday at a nice little local Tex-mex place and this woman sitting at the table across from us just kept commenting to us how well behaved our kids were. We thanked her and just smiled at each other but she kept going. She was nearly incredulous at how sweet and well behaved our girls were being, the fact that they were eating so well etc etc. I asked her where she was from as I could tell she has a foreign accent and she said Greece. As we got up to leave, the woman asked us if she could hug us and our children, which we of course let her bc she was being so dang sweet, and then she said probably 15-20 times, “Bravo! Mom and dad! Bravo!” As she’s continually hugging us all and giving us praise. My wife and I walked out there smiling insanely and feeling so damn good as parents. And we both kind of sat in the car almost wanting to cry a little bit because here this random woman was, giving us such effusive love and praise – who didn’t know us at all and probably would never see us again, and yet it’s so hard for us to get that same type of love and validation from our own parents. Just kind of goes to show that if you do the right things in life for your kids, people take notice and even if your parents aren’t necessarily uplifting you, maybe you’ll come across a random Greek woman who will make your literal day by providing you with some validation 😂 and if not a woman from Greece, someone will see and notice your efforts eventually. And if you see someone who’s doing a damn good job at something, then be that random person to give them some praise. It could literally make their week and uplift in a way that you could never anticipate. If more random strangers were kind to each other, our world would be a pretty kick ass place.
TLDR: be that random stranger being kind to others and telling them bravo when you see them being kick ass in what they do, whether it’s parenting, serving some food at chipotle, or writing that solid ass Reddit post that’s way too long and no one wants to read through.

Westbrook is so adorable here. Lol. His reaction with how impressed he was by her detail and actually asking an interesting non-clickbait question was perfect.
